Retina display repairs for A2338 models in Sydney
At Mac Screen Repair Sydney we specialise in the aspects of screen repair for the MacBook Pro 13 inch M2. The A2338 uses a Retina display at 2560 x 1600 with True Tone and P3 wide colour. This was the last 13 inch MacBook Pro design before Apple moved to 14 inch only. We offer LCD only replacement and full display assembly depending on what is required.
The M2 13 inch Pro keeps the classic Touch Bar design. Weve seen alot of them come through. Had one from Eastwood where the screen cracked in a backpack incident on public transport. Housing was fine so LCD only repair worked out cheaper than full assembly.
The team at Mac Screen Repair Sydney assess every machine 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 bends for this to work. If theres housing damage then full display assembly replacement is required.
The 13 inch Pro has a compact design. We had one where the corner got bent from a fall. Full assembly was needed but the result was as good as new.
True Tone adjusts display colour based on room lighting. On the M2 13 inch Pro the calibration data lives in the display housing. As such LCD only repair keeps True Tone working because that housing stays in place. Full assembly means new housing and True Tone data doesnt transfer across.
The team have explained this to alot of customers. Most find they dont really notice True Tone day to day but we make sure you understand before any work starts.
Impact cracks from drops are the main thing. The Retina display fractures on impact with visible crack patterns. Pressure damage is another one where something gets pressed against the closed lid. The LCD can fail in sections.
The Touch Bar above the keyboard is a separate component. If thats working fine and only the main display is damaged we can just do the screen.
We quote MacBook Pro 13" M2 screen repairs after seeing the machine. Photos dont always show housing condition accurately. LCD only costs less than full assembly when the housing qualifies. Assessment is free with no obligation.
