broken lcd

State the model of your macbook first - white, black or unibody?

For unibody its still hard to find a shop that can do it cheaply. But for white and black there are loads of places you can go to for service.

 

you can get an LCD at HotToyz

 

i can install that lcd for you at a cheaper fee ;-) , first off we need to find the correct lcd for that, may i know the model of your macbook?

 

i think hot toyz is somewhere in makati?? whatever their price is , i'll beat it heheh. we can use the serial# to look up the model.

 

hottoyz have branches in st francis square in ortigas and their main branch at quezon ave.. digitalaxis (st francis square) charges P9500 for the lcd replacement and hokage (taft cor buendia) also charges P9500 the the lcd replacement. i sold one a month ago for P7k with installation but i have no stocks available.

 

Hottoyz is on Quezon Avenue in QC, near the old Delta theater. Here's their no.: 4114727

 

does hot toyz only repair mac laptop screens?

 

find the lcd here in the marketplace. Some users have broken macbooks and sell parts. You should be able to get the lcd put in for under 2k if u supply it yourself. I went to a place in park square one. I forgot what its called but i think they charged around 1.5 It wasnt a mac tho. But the pricing should be around the same. I think places are doing it for 10-13k including the lcd if i remember. I think thats around what hot toys will charge

 

ahem... macbook pro

 

since this thread is discussing replacing a macbook's lcd, has anyone ever tried transplanting a WXGA+ screen from, say a Thinkpad X300/X301 to the macbook?

just curios since i find the macbook's resolution a bit big, and a 15" MBP is out of the question..

 

Does the LCD crack when you put things on it when the lid is closed?

 

try pinoylaptops.com. They usually charge 9.5k for bnew macbook lcd screen but sometimes they sell it as low as 7.9k
