Laptop Screen Repair Vienna

For a Windows notebook the figure starts at €149 and includes the panel, the labour and six months of warranty. A MacBook display is a separate class at €499, or €599 for the model years from 2023. Resolution, refresh rate and a bonded touch layer decide where inside the band your machine lands. You get one binding number after the diagnostic check, which costs 25 EUR and is waived on repair.

Considerably, and the reason is the part rather than our labour. On a MacBook the entire lid is supplied as one sealed assembly with glass, panel, frame, hinge arms and cables, so we carry your camera and antennas over into the new one. That lands at €499, and at €599 for the mini-LED years from 2023. A Windows panel is a separate component that can be unclipped, which is why it starts at €149.

Because on a notebook the glass is bonded to the polarising film and the panel across the whole surface, not sitting loosely above it like a phone cover. Separating the layers ruptures the cell underneath in nearly every attempt, and the display cable and antenna wires run through the hinge behind them. Fitting a complete unit costs less than a failed glass job plus a panel afterwards, which is the version we see most often.

The check is 25 EUR and it is waived in full the moment you approve any repair with us. If the panel is healthy and the fault sits in the display cable, the graphics path or the mainboard, you get a separate price for that before anything happens. Where liquid has been involved the diagnosis is 49 EUR, because the machine has to be taken apart completely to judge the corrosion honestly.

Straight lines in solid colours that never move are almost always the panel itself, where a driver row inside the glass has failed. Lines or flicker that change when you tilt the lid point at the display cable in the hinge instead, and that is the cheaper outcome. Photograph the screen and tell us whether the pattern reacts to movement. We measure both before ordering, because the two parts differ sharply in price.

Your computer is working and only the backlight has gone. Hold a torch at a shallow angle in a dark room: if you can make out windows and the mouse pointer, the image is being drawn and the lamp behind it is not lit. On older thin notebooks the usual cause is the backlight cable chafing through at the hinge. We replace the display unit and the picture comes back at full brightness.

We fit panels built to the manufacturer's specification for your exact model number, matching resolution, refresh rate, brightness, connector and touch function. Genuine parts straight from the factory channel go to authorised service partners only, and we do not pretend otherwise. Nameless panels without a datasheet never go into a customer machine. Ask us where a part comes from and you get a straight answer before you agree to anything.

Yes, that is the whole point of matching the part to your model number rather than to the screen size. A 165 Hz gaming panel is replaced by a 165 Hz panel, a touch machine keeps its touch layer, and a matte screen does not come back glossy. Downgrading the specification would cost less and we do not offer it, because a 60 Hz panel in a gaming laptop is a complaint waiting to happen.

The work itself runs between one and three hours depending on the machine: a business notebook with a clipped-in panel is quick, a thin body with a bonded touch unit has to be heated and cleaned first. The real variable is the part. Common panels sit on the shelf and the laptop goes back the next working day; an unusual high-refresh or touch unit adds two to four days for delivery.

No. A display job never touches the storage drive, nothing is reinstalled and nothing is reset, so your files, programmes and saved passwords come back exactly as you left them. We still suggest a current backup as ordinary hygiene before any hardware work. Only with severe board damage or liquid inside can nobody give a guarantee, because there the storage controller itself may be part of the fault.

Yes, and it is urgent rather than routine. Switch the machine off, unplug the charger and leave it alone; every restart drives current through a wet board. Liquid that has crept behind the panel leaves stains that spread, and the board underneath corrodes day by day. Board cleaning starts at €99 and the liquid diagnosis is 49 EUR. Skip the rice and the hairdryer, neither does anything except cost you time.

Yes, from a flat, a shared apartment or an office reception. The zone price is €14.90 in zone A, €17.90 in zone B and €18.90 in zone C, and the return trip after the repair is already inside that figure. Put the machine in a bag or a box so loose splinters stay contained. If you cannot be there, name a neighbour or the reception desk and our driver hands it over to them.

Yes, from every province, and the insured return shipping is part of the price rather than an extra. Shut the machine down, tape over the crack so pieces stay put, wrap it in bubble wrap and use a firm box with five centimetres of padding on every side. Add a note with your name, phone number and what you see on the screen. We ring you with the price before any work begins.

Yes, at a booked slot in the 22nd district. There is no shop counter with opening hours to walk into, because we work by appointment so that somebody is genuinely there and your machine goes straight onto the bench. The exact address arrives with your confirmation. Not paying shop rent is part of why a panel costs what it does here, and that saving goes to you rather than to a landlord.

Six months on the panel and on the labour, valid across Austria including machines that reached us by post. If dead pixels, backlight bleed or a failing driver row appear inside that window without a new fall or a fresh spill, we put it right at no cost to you. Fresh impact damage after the repair is not covered, as everywhere. Report anything odd before you open the machine yourself.
