The shops that sell refurbished products offer it for even 1500€ in my configuration. When I deduct the price because I would not offer any warranty, I guess I can ask for 1100€. That is why I wanted to make my life easier by just swapping both chips. I did have a look at the official apple repair guide. However, they completely change the display and not just the LCD or both chips. If I would do it, I would lose TrueTone. So that is no solution for me....

Hello Everybody,

I have a cracked screen and want to fix it. Usually, TrueTone will be gone as long as one does not prune open the screen and exchange only the LCD.

I know, it is for the MacBookPro version. Though, I...

Hello Everybody,

I am from Germany and currently facing a problem with my Mac Book Air. The screen cracked, don't ask me how it happened. I like to repair stuff by myself, but this is a tricky one because I want to keep TrueTone. However, I will create an own thread for that.
