New Macbook Air is such a beautiful laptop. Their sleek and thin design is definitely the reason so many people prefer to replace their pre-2018 Macbook Air with these ones.
However, when things go wrong, they go wrong in a terrible possible way. Such in this case with the customer’s 2019 Macbook Air screen broke and needed a replacement.
Repair Process
This will be a short post. We just want to explain why these screens are so expensive.
All Macbook Air since 2018 are built with retina screens. These screens are with a much better viewing angle and picture quality. And it can come in different colors.
But unfortunately, that’s it. All the quality build and sturdiness of the previous generation screen is left in the past. These new screens brake so easily that we have been replacing them more often than any other screens on Macbooks we did in our history of MacBook repairs.
We had also lots of cases where the ribbon cable of the screen gets damaged by food or dust particles. And this is on less than 3 years old laptop (of course just outside of warranty).
Furthermore, opposite to the expectations that more often replaced we will see screen prices plummet, we actually see them rising. Due to Apple not allowing retina screens to be manufactured for more than 3 years. Unlike screens for previous generation Macbooks. Now we end up in a situation where for sub 3000$ worth Macbook We need a screen replacement which could cost around 1000$. Our profit margin on these screens is minimum as we cannot charge more due to the coat of the screen to us. And we additionally need to install professionally these delicate screens, provide warranty and cover any return cost and time with suppliers when something goes wrong.

Repaired, not Replaced!
We are committed to reducing e-waste in Australia. How we do it is by educating our customers on the reparability and longevity of their devices, as well as providing affordable Macbook Repairs here in Adelaide.
Although our best intentions and hard work, this is not an easy task. Customers must accept that cost of high-quality electronic repairs, is between a third and half of the price of a new device. However, with the current trend of planned obsolescence in electronic design, we see more and more Macbooks having shorter lifespans. To tackle that, while we do our repairs we target common planned obsolescence engineering design mistakes to ensure we extend the life expectancy of the Macbooks we repair. Check some of our Macbook Repair Cases to get an idea of the process.
That said, if we buy a new one or write it off via insurance, it does not guarantee that the new one will not meet the same fate as the older one pretty soon.
As matter of fact, quite often we see accidents reoccurring within less than 2-year gaps. If we can save 2000$ or even 1000$ today by repairing our faulty Macbook is brilliant. That’s an extra half Macbook cost ready to be spent on another one when the time comes or our need for performance increases.
When that time comes is up to us to buy a new one or keep pushing the one we have, but delaying it by a year or three is always a good starting point and saves another abandoned Macbook from polluting our one and only Planet.
