macbook air lcd screen pricelist

MacBook laptops from Apple are some of the most beautiful and well designed – not to mention powerful, but just like everything else man-made they aren’t impervious to accidental drops, dings, and damage.

Thanks to the fact that they are made using high-quality construction materials (especially milled aluminum) they feel indestructible in the hand, but those gorgeous retina displays have the potential to pop and spiderweb just like any other screen out there.

Unlike most laptop computer repairs, the retina display on the MacBook is very unique, and as a result much more expensive to service. Lenovo, HP, Dell and all major OEM for PCs will utilize the same display across hundreds of models, and even that display is used across multiple years of laptops.

If you are unlucky enough to have a damaged screen, chances are pretty good you started to look into how much does it cost to replace a MacBook screen at the Apple Store – and the odds are pretty good you had a tough time hammering down concrete figures without bringing your computer into a store and having someone from the Genius Bar have a look. If you wanted to make an appointment with a Genius Bar, you can find that additional information here.

In this quick guide we hope to show you about how much you can expect to have to spend on MacBook repair going forward, the total “all in” cost for getting your screen replaced, and your computer back up and running.

The MacBook Air was first released in 2008, so there are a lot of models in the wild that might need their screens replaced. The cost of the repair will depend on the model of the MacBook Air, as well as the problem it is having with its screen. Below I will cover the most common models I see for repair and the cost of repairing each model. I have been repairing MacBook Air screens since the beginning, and after repairing a few thousand screens personally, I can confidently say I am an expert Mac screen repair tech.

How much does it cost to replace a MacBook Air screen? The cost to replace a MacBook Air screen is $299 for most models. The A1466 model is $179, while the A1932 and A1279 models are $299. The A2337 model is $299 for the LCD or $429 for the entire display.

This was the longest-running design for the screen on the MacBook Air. All the different models within these years are compatible with the same LCD panels. The cost seems to be coming down on the screen repairs for these A1369 and A1466 models. The cost to repair the screen on a 2010-2017 MacBook Air is $179. This will cover the LCD panel itself, the labor to install it, and the shipping to get the computer back to you.

Apple finally did a complete rebuild on the MacBook Air in 2018 and created a new model number A1932. The newer model has a redesigned display assembly that utilizes a different LCD panel and overall build than the prior 7 years of MacBook Air models. The cost to repair the screen of a 2018-2019 MacBook Air is $299.

The 2020-2021 MacBook Air looks basically identical to the 2018-2019 model, but the new model requires a different LCD panel than the older version of the laptop. There are actually 2 variations on this LCD panel. One is used for the intel-based models, and the other is used for the M1 models. I expect these LCD panels will be one of the harder-to-get models as it was only used for a single model of production.

The cost to replace a cracked LCD panel on an M1 2020 model A2337 MacBook Air is $299. If you would like to have the entire display assembly replaced with a genuine Apple display assembly, the .

Apple once again created an entirely new model with a completely redesigned screen in 2022 with their M2 MacBook Air. This new model hasn’t been out long enough for us to see what the price will end up being once the LCD panel is available on its own. For now, the cost to replace the full display assembly on the 2022 MacBook Air is $450-$750.

There are multiple parts in a display assembly, and chances are they do not all need to be replaced in order to get your computer fully working again. Knowing the basic parts that are required to complete your MacBook screen repair will help you select the correct repair for your needs.

The LCD panel is the part of the screen that displays the image, it is the part of the screen that you can touch when the computer is open. This is the most commonly broken part on a MacBook Air screen. If you have a cracked screen, there is a very big chance that what you need is an LCD replacement.

The display assembly is the entire top half of the computer. It includes the LCD panel, the back housing where the Apple logo is, the clutch cover along the bottom of the screen where it says “MacBook Air”, the iSight camera, and the hinges. If there are any bends or dents on the corners of your display, you will likely need to replace the entire display assembly.

The clutch cover runs along the bottom of the MacBook screen. It is the part that says “MacBook Air” on it. Sometimes I see clutch covers that are cracked or broken while the LCD panel itself is working fine! This means the computer works perfectly and the entire screen is visible and working, but there is a crack along the bottom of the screen in the part that says “MacBook Air” on it. If this is the issue you have, you just need a clutch cover replacement rather than an LCD replacement.

The MacBook Air camera almost never has an issue. If the camera does stop responding, the issue is almost always with the logic board inside your computer rather than the camera itself. Sometimes though, the cameras will fail and require replacement. Unfortunately with the way these MacBook Airs are assembled, you usually have to replace the LCD panel when you replace the camera.

The back housing is sometimes referred to as the “lid”. It is the part that has the Apple logo on it. Usually, the housing does not need to be replaced, but if there is a dent on the corner of the housing, a dent on the housing itself, or if liquid damage is present in the housing, then you will need the housing replaced as well as the LCD. Again, because of the way these are assembled you normally can’t replace just the housing by itself.

The hinges are exactly what they sound like, the hinge where the display meets the computer. Older model Macs from the 2006-2012 era sometimes had hinges that would crack or break and cause the display to not stay up properly. That is much rarer on the MacBook Airs, but it can happen. Some models require an entire display replacement in order to replace the hinges, while others you can replace separately. Because Apple routes cables through the hinges, you usually have to replace the entire display assembly if you have issues with the hinges.

There are a few different things you should consider when looking for a screen repair on a MacBook Air. There are many shops to choose from nowadays that offer screen repair services for Mac computers. Making a good choice for the screen repair can be the difference between getting an affordable quality repair, and an expensive repair that doesn’t last as long as it should.

What are the shop’s rates? Get a few quotes to compare before making a decision. Some repair shops are more affordable than others. This can be due to overhead or the cost of renting in a particular location.

What is the shop’s policy on data privacy? Make sure you’re comfortable with how your personal information will be treated. Some repairs require the technician to log in to your computer during the repair process, while other repairs do not.

What is the turnaround time for the repair? Some shops take longer than others to repair your computer. I have an entire article on turnaround time for the A1466 MacBook Air.

Take your time to research and choose a computer repair shop that you feel good about. With a little effort, you can find a great shop that will take care of your MacBook screen repair needs.

After over a decade in the Mac Repair industry, I can offer a few insights into different Mac Repair shops that do good work. There are literally thousands of Mac repair shops now, but some that I have gotten to know over the years and have found to be good shops are:

Rossmanngroup – I have known the owner (Louise) since we were both newbies in the repair space. His shop provides great work at an affordable price. They are based in New York.

TCRS – I have asked for Tim’s help on logic board repairs many times over the past decade. He does not necessarily specialize in screen repair, but his shop is a great choice if you need logic board-level repairs. They are based in SoCal.

As I said, there are thousands to choose from, so do some research on the ones you are interested in and I am sure you can find a good repair shop to complete your MacBook screen repair.

If you have a MacBook Air that is not covered under AppleCare+, you will spend between $450 and $650 repairing your screen through Apple. There are a couple of different ways that the display repair is billed, so the price you are quoted will vary, but these are the standard quotes. Note that each damage tier is added to by a labor charge, which is usually $100. So a Tier 1 repair is usually about $280 for the MacBook Air + a $100 labor charge.

Tier 2 Accidental Damage does cover the display, as long as everything else on the computer is not damaged. So if there is a dent or any kind of damage on a component other than the display, it can not be repaired under tier 2. Tier 2 repair is usually about $480 +labor at the Apple store.

Tier 4 Accidental Damage covers everything that could have been damaged in the computer, including the logic board. This is the tier that is usually quoted for liquid-damaged computers. A tier 4 repair is usually quoted at $650 + labor at the Apple store.

AppleCare+ does partially cover the cost of repairing a cracked screen on a MacBook Air. When you buy your computer, you are given the option to purchase AppleCare+. If you decide to purchase AppleCare+ and crack your screen, the total for the repair will be $99.

Apple stores replace parts on computers that are less than 7 years old. If your Mac is over 7 years old, you can still get it repaired, but you will need to visit a repair shop that is not an Apple store to have the service completed.

Repair cost through Best Buy is generally the same as through the Apple store. Best Buy usually charges around $450-$650 for MacBook Air screen repair.

In June of 2019, Best Buy became an Apple Authorized Service Provider. This means they have a relationship with Apple so they can order parts from Apple directly, and repair devices that are covered under Applecare.

Their actual repair capabilities on the store level seem to vary from store to store, but all the Best Buys in my area do not have Mac technicians in the actual store. They do have iPhone technicians and offer screen repair for iPhones (sometimes same-day repairs are available). But for Mac repair, they ship the computer out to be repaired and then have it shipped back to the store after repair.

When they do send a MacBook out for service, they are actually sending it to the same repair depots that the Apple Store does. They quote a marginally higher turnaround time than Apple (about 2 weeks). But generally have the computer back a little quicker than that.

UBreakiFix is not an Apple Authorized Service Provider. I do not know if they offer a genuine Apple screen (they could be utilizing Apple’s new self-repair program as I do for certain repairs), but I do know that their price for the 2020 M1 MacBook Air “starts at 479.99”. In order to get an exact quote, you have to bring your computer in for their free diagnosis.

The MacBook Air LCD replacement process is one that I don’t recommend for a beginner to an intermediate-level technician to attempt. It is best to start practicing with bad screens before moving on to these repairs. They are delicate and you can cause all kinds of problems during the repair by scratching backlight sheets or ripping cables under the LCD panel.

The display assembly replacement is a lot easier and can be completed by somebody with some technical repair experience. Apple has a self-repair program that covers the A2337 model MacBook Air. You can read about the program and get links in my 2020 M1 MacBook Air screen replacement guide.

I will say I have seen a lot of damaged screens when people attempt to repair the LCD panel on a MacBook Air themselves. Normally the damage is not fixable and you have to then replace the entire display assembly. I have a troubleshooting page for the A1466 MacBook Air if you have attempted a repair and ran into problems.

If you are experienced enough to complete the repair, you can find the panels on public sites like iFixit, eBay, Amazon, etc. As a shop, you will probably want to work with your vendor to get panels that have a guarantee so you can hold them in stock. The price for panels usually ranges from around $100 to about $400 for the newest model. Generally, the panels decrease in price with time, but sometimes if an LCD panel is not used frequently by apple, they will become rare and cost more over time for new ones.

I have put together a few guides on how to replace the LCD yourself. I currently have a 2010-2017 display and LCD replacement guide available. I also have started working on an A2337 display replacement guide that is still a work in progress. I am also working on making video guides for screen repair and hope to have those posted by the March of 2023.

The cost to replace a MacBook Air screen is $299 for most models. The A1466 model is $179, while the A1932 and A1279 models are $299. The A2337 model is $299 for the LCD or $429 for the entire display.

You can repair a MacBook Air Screen yourself, but it requires special tools. The repair is considered to be a moderately difficult repair, so I don’t recommend trying to do it yourself unless you have some experience in repairing electronics.

Apple will replace the MacBook screen for free if there are no cracks or physical damage present, but the laptop must be under warranty or AppleCare+. Sometimes screens will stop working on their own, and these types of problems will be covered under your warranty.

Apple charges between $450 and $650 to replace a MacBook Air screen if it is not under warranty. If you have AppleCare+, the cost to replace the screen through Apple is $99.

This is a great question to discuss with the shop you are thinking of doing the repair. Most of the time the answer is yes, it is worth repairing a MacBook Air screen if the MacBook Air is useful to you. The cost of the repair usually decreases with time, so older MacBook Airs will cost less to repair than newer MacBook Airs.

AppleCare+ generally does not cover a cracked screen completely. Rather it covers all but $99 of the screen replacement service. If there is liquid damage involved, then the charge is $299.

The Apple Store will generally offer repair services for computers up to 5 years old. In California, they are required by law to offer repairs for computers up to 7 years old.

Look, I loved my MacBook Air, and my iPod, and my iTouch and my iPad.... but here is the deal: I have the answer, it will cost $800 to for a new computer screen. That is just for the "top deck", there is nothing wrong with the computer. $800? Seriously, the computer was only $1200. Come on people - how much can that part cost? The screen is only 13 inches--there is nothing about that part worth $800. The "Genius" apparently can"t be trusted to do the repair, heck they can"t even open the back of the case. They aren"t allowed. The only thing a "Genius" is allowed to do is work on something with respect to the software. Here is the odd thing, before they can tell you anything, they need the serial number off of your computer so that they can put it into their system. The only thing they should need to give me a price is my Model #. That is just weird.

To those of you who want to partake in the crack, may I suggest what I will be doing from here on out... carry a personal articles rider on your homeowners or renters insurance. Apparently it is only about $40 and will cover the cost of repairs for accidental damage on listed belongings. Yes, I just learned a painful lesson!

The current out-of-warranty battery service fee will apply until the end of February 2023. Effective March 1, 2023, the out-of-warranty battery service fee will be increased by $30 for all MacBook Air models and by $50 for all MacBook and MacBook Pro models except for MacBook Pro (14-inch, 2023) and MacBook Pro (16-inch, 2023).

Replacement equipment that Apple provides as part of the repair or replacement service may contain new or previously used genuine Apple parts that have been tested and pass Apple functional requirements.

Apple MacBook screens are a high-quality and very reliable product. Most of the time, they won’t go wrong for no reason unless they have been suffered from physical impacts or exposed to liquid.  You can easily notice a physical-damaged MacBook screen such as a cracked screen. You can see the image as well as the cracks. In this situation, you definitely need a MacBook screen replacement.

Other display issues such as a Mac black screen or dim images are harder to diagnose, as the screen itself and the video chip on the logic board would equally contribute to the symptoms. If your MacBook screen has the following symptoms, you need professional advice before replacing the screen.

A completed MacBook screen assembly consists of an LCD panel, a webcam and a wifi antenna.  An older MacBook screen assembly also has a front glass and an in-built wifi card. If your screen display is working fine, only the webcam or the Wifi antenna is not functional; you may not have to replace the entire screen assembly. We can repair the faulty components for you to lower your repair bill. This type of MacBook screen repair will cost $100 to $200, depending on the MacBook models.

There are two types of MacBook Pro screens: retina screen and non-retina screen. A MacBook Pro manufactured in 2012 or before comes with a non-retina screen. The models include A1278, A1286 and A1297. A MacBook Pro manufactured in 2012 onwards comes with a retina screen. The models include A1425, A1502, A1398, A1706, A1707, A1708, A1989, A1990, A2141, A2159, A2171.

If you have a non-retina MacBook Pro screen, we can replace the broken front glass panel, broken or burned screen cable, faulty webcam or the faulty wifi card/antenna at a low cost without replacing the whole screen assembly.

If you have a retina screen, we can replace the broken or burned screen cable. Please note that this type of screen repair will only apply to MacBook models A1425, A1502 and A1398. The screen cables in the retina screen manufactured in 2016 onwards are not replaceable.

There are two types of MacBook Air screens: retina screen and non-retina screen. A MacBook Pro manufactured in 2017 or before comes with a non-retina screen. The models include A1369, A1370, A1465 and A1466. A MacBook Air manufactured in 2018 onwards comes with a retina screen. The models include A1932 and A2179.

If you have a non-retina MacBook Air screen, we can replace the broken or burned screen cable, faulty webcam or faulty antenna at a low cost without replacing the whole screen assembly.

When you need to replace the MacBook screen, you may need to make a decision between using an Apple original screen or a cheaper third-party screen. We compare an Apple original screen with a third-party screen side by side shown in the following photo to help you better understand the differences.

The above two MacBook Pro A1708 were manufactured in 2017. Both MacBooks use the same background picture and set the brightness to maximum. The screen on the right-hand side is an Apple original screen; the one on the left-hand side is a third-party screen purchased online. You can tell the differences straightforward by the quality of the images. Here we discuss the technical details.

A MacBook screen consists of two major components, an LCD panel and a strip of LED lights called backlights. The LCD panel creates the image. The LED lights illuminate the image from behind the LCD panel. There are significant differences between an original Apple screen and a third-party screen as outlined here:

1. Backlight purity. Apple uses high-quality LEDs as backlight sources. The backlight is pure white. On the other hand, the backlight of the third-party screen is bluish. The bluish backlight degrades the vivid picture dramatically.

2. Backlight brightness. Even after eight years, Apple’s high-quality LEDs provide brighter lights and remain near the same brightness level. Low-quality LEDs not only produce bluish light but also have brightness degradation problems. The brightness of some third-party screens may only maintain half of the original brightness level after a year of use.

3. Photo sharpness. The Apple original screen produces a much sharper image thanks to the high quality of the LCD panel, as you can see on the right-hand side of the above photo.

The national average cost for Apple repair services provided by independent technicians ranges from $45 to $140.Some repairs can be quickly diagnosed and completed, while others take more time. An Apple repair technician can also tell you when it makes sense to repair or replace your iOS device.

Professional Apple repair technicians can help when your desktop computer, MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, iPad or iPhone stops working or suffers accidental damage. Hiring an independent technician or company can be a cost-effective way to get your slow or non-functioning iOS device back up to speed — especially if the item isn"t covered under Apple"s warranty or AppleCare protection plan, or if there"s no Apple store in your area.

The most common Apple repairs are for Mac laptops and desktops. For laptops, most repair shops are asked to replace logic boards, hard drives and screens. The logic board is the foundation of the computer. Signs of trouble with your logic board are when your machine doesn"t have any power, or if it shows just a white screen or a beeping noise when it does power up. Common signs of a problem with your hard drive include a flashing folder with a question mark when you boot up or being unable to access your information. Another common repair is fixing iPhone screens.

Repair shops also report a lot of the spinning beach ball of death, especially when the hard drive is about five to six years old. If you have a pre-2012 Mac, most repair specialists recommend upgrading to a solid-state hard drive to give your computer a new lease on life. After 2012, Apple soldered the memory in and implemented a hard drive that"s proprietary to Apple, so it"s more costly to upgrade or replace.

Laptop hard drive replacement: $225-$250, depending on make and year. Repair time is typically 1-2 days if the repair technician has the parts in stock.

Replacing touch bar and logic board of late-model MacBooks: $1,200 and up. The high cost is due to the new technology of the touch bar. Once new technology has been on the market for a while, the parts become cheaper, making the repairs cheaper.

MacBook Pro hard drive replacement: $80 per hour of labor (typically 3-4 hours labor) plus parts ($75 for a 240-gigabyte to $260 for a terabyte solid-state hard drive).

The cost to replace a MacBook Pro hard drive includes backing up all data and files, removing any harmful information from that backup, updating operating system, reinstalling app system, reinstalling data and other conveniences like reconnecting the printers to their network. Newer model Apple-compatible hard drives are typically more expensive.

Common repairs for Apple desktops include replacing the internal fans or repairing damage to the hard drive. Internal fans keep the processor and the inside cool and prevent overheating. Your fans may need to be replaced if your computer is overheating, spontaneously shutting down or making strange noises.

The national average price to replace fans is $89-$199. Repairing the hard drive in a desktop really depends on the year and model of the computer. For example, the iMac is all-in-one, so fixing or replacing the hard drive can mean taking the entire thing apart. A national average price range for hard drive repair or replacement is $159-$459.

The minimum cost for liquid damage repair is typically $129. Computers are highly sensitive to water and other liquid damage. In addition to the moisture, the sugars or chemicals in sodas and other drinks can be corrosive to the delicate logic board of your laptop.

Cracked screens and issues with visibility or errors often result from dropping laptops. The retina screens that are standard on later models offer extremely high pixel density, which creates a seamless viewing experience, but — like the touch bar — is a new technology that costs more to replace when cracked or damaged. Repair experts recommend always keeping laptops or iPhones in protective cases.

iPhone screen repairs are a common request, and most shops can replace a screen in less than 30 minutes. Thecost to repair an iPhone screen ranges from $29-$329. However, prices depend on the phone model and screen size — the newer and larger the screen, typically the higher the cost.

Battery failure, charge port problems, earpiece difficulties and data recovery are also frequent problems. Here are some examples of average iPhone repair costs, nationally:

Apple repair technicians may charge for pickup or drop-off services, or may include transportation in their fees. Many technicians will provide a free diagnosis and an estimate of repair costs for customers who bring a computer or device to their location. Some repair shops even offer free diagnostics for laptops and phones when clients bring them in. Others may charge a minimum service fee that averages between $50 and $100, which can then be applied to the cost of repairs.

Many repair outfits offer a flat rate, starting at a national average of $69-$89, or up to $129 if they also need to do a backup and transfer. A very simple repair might cost as little as $39.

It"s important to always back up your data to prevent any loss and to invest in anti-virus software. For most virus removal jobs, many companies offer a flat rate of $90 to clean up a laptop or desktop and get you operating smoothly once more. Many repair experts recommend the Avast brand of anti-virus software, but there are many available to suit your needs. Most repair specialists also recommend backing up your devices to a cloud-based storage system, in addition to an external hard drive, to ensure that a flood, fire, loss or theft doesn"t destroy your work files, family photos and important documents. Anti-virus software and cloud-based storage are typically available for a monthly fee.

In most cases, customers can save time (and often money) by purchasing the replacement parts they need to upgrade or replace and then hiring a repair technician to install them. Consult someone at an Apple Genius Bar and/or the repair service first to find out exactly what to buy.

Start searching for an Apple repair technician near you today. Give the technicians as much information as possible upfront about what"s going wrong with your Apple computer so he or she can provide a more accurate quote for the cost of repair. Read client reviews and follow up with references to make sure you"re choosing the right pro for your project.

Apple repair professionals can install and update operating systems, install anti-virus software, replace a broken screen, troubleshoot phones or computers that are not turning on, address slow performance issues, remove suspected viruses or malware, resolve system errors or blank screens, handle strange noises like clicking or grinding coming from the hard drive, or replace logic boards.

You may know the cause of the problem with your Mac — spilling liquids on your laptop and dropping the computer are two common causes of accidental damage — or you may need the technician to provide diagnostic services to determine what"s wrong. Many Apple repair technicians offer flat rates for common services such as screen replacements for which they can confidently predict the cost of parts and labor to complete the job. Some repair pros also provide mobile service, coming to your home or office to do repairs or providing pickup and drop-off service. Mobile service may cost extra or may be included in the repair charge. Several things affect the average cost of Apple repairs including the type of Apple product that needs repair, the type of service needed and more.

Apple redesigned the MacBook Air in 2022 with an all-new chassis, with the inclusions of the M2 chip. The tapered case has been traded for a case with a uniform thickness. Apple also upgraded the FaceTime camera to 1080p from the 720p version found in the M1 MacBook Air. With thinner bezels, the M2 MacBook Air has a screen size of 13.6 inches.

Retail prices for the 2022 MacBook Air start at $1,199 and top out at $2,499 -- however, exclusive MacBook Air deals are available on every configuration in this Price Guide. Each system is heavily discounted at Apple Authorized Reseller Adorama with exclusive coupon code APINSIDER. AppleCare is also marked down with the same promo code.

Yesterday, Apple revealed it would expand its Self Service Repair program to let you fix your own MacBooks, and today the program is here. You can now download full repair manuals for your 2021 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pros and the 2020 13-inch M1 MacBook Pro and M1 MacBook Air — and shop for parts you might need.

Many prices seem (relatively) generous! Others, not so much. You can’t just replace your own battery or keyboard on a MacBook Pro, for example! You have to buy the entire top lid that comes with that and other parts preattached, and it’ll cost you more than twice the $199 that Apple charges for a battery replacement.

And while you can replace just the battery on your 2020 M1 MacBook Air, you’ll have to spend $39 — the same price as a full set of keycaps — to replace broken keys on your function row. That might be because Apple ships seven sets of Fn keycaps at a time:

The motherboard prices are particularly interesting. Not only will Apple not let you upgrade to a higher-end board, the company is dramatically incentivizing you to return the original part. It expects you to lay out as much as $4,222 for a new logic board — ouch at having that on my credit card — but you’ll get the vast majority of it back upon return. You should wind up paying $588 for a 16-inch MacBook Pro board, $500 for a 14-inch or 13-inch MBP board, or $368 for an M1 Air board, no matter how loaded it is.

You can also opt for Apple’s $49 tool rental — if you’re willing to sign away its whole purchase price in the event you don’t return it within seven days. (This nearly got me in trouble when I used one to repair my iPhone, as my parts arrived days after the kit, and even though I sent it back in time, Apple initially reported it missing.)

You can find a list of everything that comes with the MacBook tool rental at the bottom of this webpage. Interestingly, only the 2020 MacBook kits come with big, heavy special tools like display and battery presses.

Brands like HP and Dell have inexpensive screen replacements compared to Mac. Why so? It is because MacBook’s retina display is unique. That is why the replacement is expensive. Unfortunately, if you’re carrying a broken device and not sure how much itcoststo replace a MacBook screen at the Apple Store.Then, this article will help you determine the estimated repair price with and without AppleCare.

If AppleCare backs your device, you can expect to pay $99 for a damaged, defective, or cracked MacBook screen. If there are any additional damages, you might need to pay an extra $300.

If you own a MacBook with a broken retina display screen and don’t have AppleCare. Then, expect the replacement to cost around $355 to $755 at the Apple Store.

It is sometimes puzzling to know exactly how much itcoststo replace a MacBook screen at the Apple Store. If you have AppleCare, expect replacement expenses from $99 to $300. Contrarily, non-AppleCare users should expect to spend around $455 to $755 to repair the damage.
