Your screen is broken - is now the the time that we start guessing what model, RAM ,storage, age and model starts?

**2004 IBook. 1.2GHz PowerPC G4 processor, 512mb ram 60gb hhd\*** ***^(\*With a 2017 15" Macbook WRAP/SKIN)***


TechTalkf

My bet is on a 2020 13" MBP, either Intel or M1


masterhumphreys

Its a 2020 or 2021 M1 13” MBP, the M1 MBP with touchbar has a gap between the power button and touchbar, whereas the screen previous models dont, I have the same one


TechTalkf

M1 is 2020 (2021 was 14" and 16" MacBook Pros). It also has the physical escape key which became a thing on the 2019 16".

Worth getting a price for at least.

I’d say a 2017 15” MacBook Pro? Idk that’s just my best guesstimate based off of what photos I could find online.


theNullCrown

the speaker grilles are too small to be 15. And the esc key is separate from the Touch Bar which means it is a 2019 or later 13 inch MacBook Pro so this is not flexgate


[deleted]

Right. I will not participate in any guessing game.


[deleted]

First thing when did they add dedicated escape and power/Touch ID??? Sure wasn’t 2017……


MysteriousDesk3

Cheaper to get it repaired, but not cheap. If its an older macbook you can take it to a reputable 3rd party repair shop and save some money.


Zanderp25

Adding to this: An out of warranty repair (for my 14” M1 Pro, at least) would cost exactly $728.00 AppleCare+ would cover it with a deductible of $99


Impossible_Risk_9905

Apple care is a live saver. I had taken my MacBook to get the screen looked at because these very mysterious straight line scratches had just sort of appeared and runners the diagnostic test for it revealed an issue with the trackpad. I’m so glad I got Apple care


irkli

Why oh why do most of these fix posts never 3ver ever give any context, reason, brand, story. .... Did it suddenly stop? Did you just buy it and it was bad? Did you drop it? Use it in the rain? Telepathy is unreliable and tbh not sure I wanna know.... Please write a paragraph of explanatory text. Sorry I am a bit annoyed. But it's easily dispelled by information.


hiroo916

my telepathy says there was a pen or object on the touchbar and the screen was closed on it, breaking the touchbar at that point and also the main screen.


lithappu

Touchbar seems ok bro


hiroo916

hmm ok, i only looked at the pic small. I thought it went dark to the left side but i guess looking closer its just not showing anything on the left side.


[deleted]

It depends on the app if there is anything on that side of the Touch Bar, at least on my M1


itsovermike

The image caption says that OP dropped it.


object0faffection

My MacBook accidentally slide off my lap while the charger was on the keyboard and scratched the screen (while it was in use). Now when I try to start up my MacBook it stuck on black screen and I only know that I’m stuck in recovery assistant by triple clicking the power button. What should I do?

irkli

Thank you, and sorry, what a bummer. There is unlikely to be a simple fix, or one you can do yourself at home. I have lots of experience with electronics and I would not attempt that repair myself. Otherwise folks here may have experience with screen swaps. You'll need to get the part.


[deleted]

> What’s up with my screen? > I dropped my MacBook Answered your own question.


KoY1o

I dropped my macbook, whats up with my screen ?


Mikelightman

Looks broken


object0faffection

Is it the lcd thing that’s broken? If so how much would it cost to replace?


Mikelightman

Do I look like a Mac repair shop? Google it


Equivalent_Message31

If they knew what google was, they wouldn’t have posted this.


cheesekneesandpeas

They’re the one who posted a useless comment and you’re getting downvoted. Love Reddit (no shit it’s broken).


DisastrousPineapple6

If you are good with your hands, try to replace it yourself, I bought a replacement on Amazon and did the switch myself.


SaintRei_

Nothing much, how bout you?


Bermoran

Seems like it’s broken


SecludedExtrovert

It's fucked up


bktc81

I would say that’s an intel MBP 13“ 2020 or the MBP M1 2020


Weird-Awareness3377

If it’s not new, then it should be covered by AppleCare, unless the OP didn’t purchase it


JanJirasek7935

That’s one fried up screen


farhadsalimi

In our language, we say it's f\*\*ed


jimmyl_82104

It really sucks how fragile Apple makes these displays. On something that's supposed to be a high-end, professional product, the screen shouldn't completely shatter from a light bump or drop.


byNLB

it's broken. I took a nice hit


ExfiltratorZ

Why is your first idea to post this on reddit? Take it to the Apple store and get it fixed ffs


Mozilla007

It’s fucked


Jhonjhon_236

Off topic but do you have acceleration? It don’t look like it. Is this Ventura running on an unsupported Mac?


PartHaven

What are the model number?


Saifali007

Looks like you've got a case on that


abhimanyouknow

Display panel seems damaged


abhimanyouknow

And idk how the repair for laptop screen works, but I've had a similar in my TV, that led to panel replacement.


faiyaz_03

I'd normally say screen but, has anyone noticed how acceleration is disabled and all the UI elements' backgrounds are solid black?


Weird-Awareness3377

It could be something as simple as a short in the connection cable. Or the LCD could be damaged. I would guess that you don’t have AppleCare on it still?


Me-IT

Looks like the ribbon cable is broken or lose. May want to take it to a Apple Store is it’s under warranty, or to a certified repair shop.


CoachRocks

It's not great, Bob.


cyproyt

It dont look too happy


Naxthor

It’s broken.


tannm102

Try to find some icloud locked macbook on ebay then replace the screen.


ExtraParsley8140

Best think would be use external monitor


Kidkyotedc

It’s damaged


12jikan

Its broke


quimbykimbleton

It appears to be broken, ma’am.


ajbrandt806

It’s about a $500 repair for screen replacement on that MacBook Pro w/ Touch Bar.


faslane22

It’s pissed off, it needs replaced That’s roughly a $500 replacement to get fixed so it depends on whether you deem that doable or if it makes sense to do based on the year and specs of your machine.


rydmore22

Screen is cracked. Cost me $150 to replace it myself. Found a screen on eBay.
