Replacement for Apple Unibody MacBook Pro Glass Screen Cover - 13 Inch

Hands down one of the easiest screen protector to use. I have my beloved MacBook Pro and one day noticed it had several hairline cracks on the screen (GASP) and I asked myself "how did it get there?" Did I drop it on my rug one too many times? Probably so. I was devastated as I thought I would not be able to see clearly when the computer is on. Thankfully although there are quite a few cracks, my baby is still operational. I tried looking at how much it would cost to get the screen replaced and had to put that idea on the back burner as Christmas is around the corner and I did not have the money. I decided the best thing to do was to buy a screen protector until I am able to get the screen fixed. The first one I bought was not horrible but it did leave bubbles no matter how careful I was. When I tried several times to take it off and correct it, the screen protector bent at one corner and would not stick so in frustration I took if off. Bad mistake. when I lifted it off, it made one of the cracks worse. I decided then that I had to buy another one as now its not just a "scratch". I decided on this one based on the description, price and reviews.It arrived quickly and I have to say that on my first try, I was able to place it on my screen perfectly as it is large enough to cover the WHOLE screen as most screen protectors leave the edges unprotected. NO BUBBLES OR SMUDGES. Once I was sure it was anchored to my screen, I was able to take of the protector film over the protector. This protector is thick unlike other and if I didn't know they were there, I would not see the cracks/scratch lines. I love it. I am definitely getting my screen replaced but now I don't feel as if I have to rush.If I purchase another laptop then this will be my choice before anything can happen to the screen.

so a while back my wife decided to leave her brand new macbook on the floor, where my foot found it and spider-webbed the screen. I decided instead of the aprox $420+ apple quoted on a 3+ week repair, that this might be a better option, myself being rather handy. She doesn't know i fixed it while she is at work today so she gets a surprise, like-new macbook tonight when she's off.I purchased a wagner heat gun for this fix, having not already owned one i needed it. Be very careful on just how much heat you blast the screen edges with. i melted a little bit of the rubber edge. also, the lcd doesn't like a lot of heat so watch out! the original adhesive holds extremely tight and I ended up with a pile of glass shards and chips over it. this takes patience! Oce you have cleared the old screen cover and all black adhesive, the new one goes on super quick and easy. for the isight bracket thingy (you'll know what it is when you remove the old cover) just melt the glue on the new screen in that area using the heat gun and place the metal piece on. real easy. the new cover is all ready to go on once the white backing is removed. line it up (making sure ALL inside surfaces are crystal clear (i used the disposable zeiss wipes) match em up and rub the edges to ensure it adheres to the computer. DONE.I did not remove the screen portion from the computer. some DIY videos recommend and show that you do. It makes a better work surface i think, but i managed without physically taking the computer in two pieces. decide for yourself.this is not a super lengthy fix, but allow yourself time to be patient and not rush it. after all, its about 50 bucks worth of one piece of glass you do not want to re-order over a slip up or impatience. take your time!If your handy like me, save yourself $370+ and use it for a few gallons of gas or something. I prefer to invest the money saved on tools like the heat gun to make future DIY projects like this even more affordable.Hope this helps anyone curious about fixing there macbook!

I never write reviews but had to because this Mac screen was life changing! :-) I accidentally broke my Mac book pro 13" screen around 4 months ago and have just been dealing with it. It's been terribleeee shards of plastic/glass not to mention trying to see through it to use my laptop. My husband bought me a new MacBook Pro and I was trying to see if I could get anything out of my old one. Mac had a buyback program and sent it in but they said instead of $300 they could only give me $25 because of the screen or if I got it fixed and sent it back they'd give me $300. I'd checked before quotes were always $500-600 to fix my macs screen, but figured what the heck if it was only worth $25 then I might as well try to do it myself. Bought this screen off here for only $16, thankfully when it came it was the exact same as the one on my computer (had my doubts of I'd ordered the correct one) and sat down one evening and I'm less then an hour fixed my screen!!! It looks BRAND NEW!!!! There are two pieces of plastic protecting the new screen - one on the front and the back. I used an old credit card to go around the whole edge of my screen and lift it off. I had a pretty bad bread on my screen which made the one corner hard to take off all the shattered screen bits otherwise I could have finished the whole thing in 15-20 mins. I used glasses cleaner and a soft cloth and cleaned th led. Once it's all off make sure you save the little metal prong piece from around the webcam because the new one doesn't come with it and then take off the protective back and position the screen correctly and then press firmly in place! Voila! Take off the front thin layer of plastic and you will have a shiny crystal clear beautiful new screen! Best $16 I've spent in my life!!Good luck!! ;-)
