    Is not true. Screens are one thing where they're pretty agnostic - as long as they've got the right 20 or 24 pin connector on the back they'll fit and there are only maybe 5 screen manufacturers in the entire world. Plenty of third party companies supply screens. I use one called Analogic. Not the cheapest but very good quality and 100% compatible - usually being the same make as the screen being replaced.

    Depending on the laptop and labour rates, £130 or so should see you with one supplied and fitted.


    Whats that company like for dead pixels etc, how longs the warranty out of interest? Do they give discounts for more than one screen?
    [greenhighlight]but it matters when the most senior politician in the land is happy to use language and examples that are simply not true.

    The impact of this is to stigmatise people on benefits,
    and we should be deeply worried about that

    12 month warranty, never had a problem with dead pixels. No official discounts but it is possible to negotiate if you are buying sufficient quantities.
  • My partner dropped his laptop and the screen has bled - is it possible to buy another screen and fit it?

    thanks
    I buy screen from this store and they give me screen on very cheap prices check this link: laptopscreendirect.com

    Start a new thread. Apart from a bit of spam at the end, this one dates back to 2011.
