Touch Screen Repair
If you have a laptop with a touchscreen (commonly called 2-in-1), replacing a broken screen can get really expensive!
Laptops with touch screens are usually more expensive, heavier, have a worse battery life, and much more difficult to repair. Typically, a touch screen consists of a sturdy frame, screen itself, digitiser, and protective glass. These are all glued together and usually very difficult to separate.
If only the glass or digitiser broke, it's possible to disable the touch capability. You will still have the cracks in the screen, and eventually, they may damage the screen as well, but at least the laptop will be usable in the short term!
A proper way of fixing it is by replacing the entire top assembly, but it's usually at least double the cost of a traditional laptop screen replacement. We keep a few most popular touch screens in stock but usually have to order them. More often, they have to be ordered from overseas and it extends 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 buy an expensive laptop, like Apple MacBook Pro, Microsoft Surface Book, Dell XPS, or any laptop with a high-resolution or touch screen — adding the accidental damage cover is usually well worth it. You will probably have to pay a deductible, but it will be much cheaper than covering the cost out of pocket.
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.
