Express Laptop Repairs Gold Coast

Laptop screens broken, cracked, shattered.

Laptop screens are getting more and more fragile, simply because of the need to shrink laptop size and thickness.

We are all paying the price for that, resulting in far more broken laptop screens than ever before.

What are the most common things we do to damage our laptop screens?

1. Dropping the laptop
2. Leaving something on the keyboard and closing the screen (the most common are USB drives and pens)
3. Frustration causing us hitting the screen

We have seen it all, and the best one we've had so far was a laptop run over with the customers own car. I wish we had taken a photo of it at the time, would've looked great on this page.

There are things that we can do to prevent the screen damage, to a certain extent:

1. Use a quality laptop carry bag or cover
2. Apply a protective tempered glass if available for your model
3. Being aware of how we transport the laptop 

1. A hard cover is the best option out there, usually a full aluminium bag is the best. Don't waste your money on soft bags, they will do nothing for you.

Most probably the best laptop protection solution.


2. There is a protective tempered glass available for most models, just make sure you purchase it from a reputable dealer, as there are many fakes sold out there and applying one of these would result in no protection at all.

Tempered glass provides extra protection for screen impact damage.


3. 90% of laptop screen damage happens during transport. We always have to be aware how we transport the laptop. The majority of laptop screens get damaged when placed into the overhead compartment on a plane and somebody else tries to force a larger bag into an already full compartment. 

If your laptop is behind this luggage, good luck!


If the damage has already happened, you have to be aware of a few important questions you have to ask your repairer, as you know that not all of them are as honest as we would like them to be:

1. Ask about the brand and quality of the screen panel you are having installed. There are inferior generic screen panels out there that you do not want. (Samsung and LG are two of the best, you cannot go wrong with)
2. Ask about the repairers experience with replacing screens, as there are right and wrong ways of installing a laptop screen, especially a touch screen
3. Always make sure you get a full 1 year warranty on the screen panel (if they refuse to give you a full 1 year warranty, turn around and RUN!)
