Liquid Retina XDR display repairs for A2780 models in Sydney
At Mac Screen Repair Sydney we specialise in the aspects of screen repair for the MacBook Pro 16 inch M2. The A2780 uses a Liquid Retina XDR display with ProMotion at 3456 x 2234 resolution. Available with M2 Pro or M2 Max chips. We offer LCD only replacement and full display assembly depending on what is required.
The M2 16 inch brought the second generation Apple Silicon to the large Pro. Released early 2023 with improved performance and efficiency. Excellent machines for professional work. Weve started seeing these for repairs and know the process well.
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.
LCD only repair preserves your True Tone calibration since the housing with its calibration data stays in place. Full assembly means new housing and True Tone wont transfer.
The A2780 display uses mini-LED backlighting with ProMotion for 120Hz refresh. True Tone colour adjustment is included. The calibration data lives in the display housing. With LCD only repair True Tone keeps working. Full assembly and True Tone doesnt transfer.
The XDR display produces stunning visuals. 1000 nits sustained brightness with 1600 nits peak HDR.
Impact cracks from drops are the main thing. The large 16 inch display has significant surface area. Pressure damage where something presses against the closed lid. The mini-LED display can fail in sections showing dark patches or distortion. Notch area damage from impacts.
Professional machines used daily are at risk. Screen damage disrupts important work.
Both chip variants use the same display assembly in the 16 inch chassis. Whether you have M2 Pro or M2 Max doesnt affect the screen repair. The A2780 model number covers both versions.
The Max has more GPU cores and memory bandwidth but display wise theyre identical.
