MBA - broken glass - macphanatic - 10-11-2021
The glass on my kid's MBA has a crack. LCD is fine. Can Apple replace just the glass or do I need a new screen as well? Looks like it's close to $600 to do the full screen replacement. At which point, I might be better off selling for parts and getting a M1 for just a few hundred more.

Make, model?
There's been postings about M1 MBAs' screens cracking 'for no apparent reason'.
If it's an Apple thing, maybe they'll have a warranty repair program.
If it's not an M1, I got nothing.

Not a M1.

bummer... is there a screen sticker like a phone that can hold it together?
yeah... M1s are $850.... heck of a deal.

Lots of them on Reddit, too. LOTS of them.
