Touch Screen Repair
If you have a laptop with a touchscreen (commonly called 2-in-1), replacing a broken screen can get really expensive!
Touch screen laptops often cost more, feel heavier, drain the battery faster, and are harder to repair. Inside, there’s a durable frame, the screen itself, a digitiser, and a layer of protective glass. These components are glued together, making them difficult to separate without damage.
If the glass or digitiser is the only part that’s broken, the touch function can sometimes be disabled. Cracks may still be visible and could eventually affect the screen, but in the short term, your laptop may remain usable.
The proper fix is to replace the entire top assembly. However, this is usually at least twice the cost of a standard screen replacement. Fix My Laptop Brisbane keeps a few popular touch screens in stock. Most, though, need to be ordered, and some come from overseas, which can extend the repair time by two to three weeks.
Warranty and Accidental Damage Insurance
If the manufacturer’s warranty still covers your laptop, a cracked screen is usually exempt from it, unless you opted to pay for accidental damage insurance. It can save you several hundred dollars if your laptop ever gets damaged!
If you’re buying an expensive laptop like an Apple MacBook Pro, Microsoft Surface Book, Dell XPS or any device with a high-resolution or touch screen, adding accidental damage cover is often a smart move. While you may need to pay a deductible, it’s usually far less than the full repair cost.
For example, replacing a damaged MacBook screen can cost from $400 to $1000. If you have Apple Care, you will usually pay less than $200! Every accidental damage insurance policy has specific terms and conditions, so it’s best to inquire about it where you bought the laptop. You can usually add the insurance cover up to two months from the purchase date of the laptop, provided it hasn’t been damaged.
