Repair of Notebook LCD ...

[Adam Goi]

Hi,

Asking this on a friend's behalf ... he accidentally dropped his HP Notebook and after sending it to Hp for assessment, they quoted him S$600+ for repair/replacement ... are there any cheaper alternatives?

TIA!

That is considered quite cheap for brand new parts if coming from HP. A macbookpro 15.4" tft screen would cost >$1.4k to have it changed at applecentre.

For budget, maybe can try simlim shops that swop a used screen for a fee. But the age and quality of used screen would not be guaranteed for consistent output. Why not top up abit more and buy another notebook?

Have to pay about $50 if your friend decide not to have it repaired.

$600 is a cheap to pay consider they replace the whole top part of the laptop...
