Display repairs for A1466 models in Sydney
At Mac Screen Repair Sydney we specialise in the aspects of screen repair for the MacBook Air 13 inch 2017. The A1466 is the non-Retina model with a display at 1440 x 900. This was one of the last non-Retina MacBooks and weve seen alot of them. We do LCD only replacement and full display assembly depending on what is required.
The 2017 Air was basically the same as the 2015 model. Reliable machine that people still use. Had one come in from Rouse Hill where the screen cracked after a fall. Classic wedge shape and the housing was in good condition so LCD only repair was the cheaper option.
The team at Mac Screen Repair Sydney assess every MacBook before recommending a repair approach. LCD only replacement means we swap out the damaged panel but keep your existing aluminium housing. The housing cant have dents or warping for this to work. If theres housing damage then full display assembly is required.
The 2017 Air uses a standard LCD panel at 1440 x 900 resolution. Lower pixel density than Retina models but still a decent display for everyday work. No True Tone calibration on these models so theres nothing to preserve during repair.
Impact cracks from drops are common. Pressure damage is another one where something gets pressed against the closed lid. On machines this age we also see backlight problems, vertical lines, and general wear issues. The display cable can get worn from years of opening and closing the lid.
We quote MacBook Air 13" 2017 screen repairs after seeing the machine. LCD only costs less than full assembly when the housing qualifies. Assessment is free with no pressure. Same day for LCD only when parts are available.
