I initially bought a third party one from Lowyat but it constantly gave me headaches (signal lost) especially when I was giving presentations at work and the signal kept disappearing and I had to plug and unplug the connector again. I bought an original one and never had to look for 3rd party accessories again.

hi guys im not sure where I can post this. ill try here.

my sisters macbook pro dropped and damaged the screen

its a 13" retina display macbook pro and apple shop quoted about 1-2k to replace. (only will tell real price upon confirming repair -.-)

any other suggestion ? I was thinking, are there scrapyards where for example i can find a working screen with broken MB etc ...?

Or any sifu here that know how to fix this without charging a bomb? hehe

Bro, do try at Imbi plaza there, there are 2nd hand shops. Those non retina i know can find but retina displays are still new in a sense. BTW, you don't have the 'apple care'?

Hi bro thanks for reply.
I think my sis told me it's expired. She got it in mid2014 😂

I meant 'apple care' that is extra on top the standard warranty. IIRC it was for arround RM900, that goes for 3 years no questions. I think it is wort it to have.

Anyway, at Imbi look at the 1st floor somewhere at the side. Its a used equipment shop so to speak, something like a kedai potong but for IT products. All the best bro.

oh i see. sorry im more a windows guy so no idea about it haha ill ask again.

thanks for your feedback!

Apple Care does not cover accidental

does anyone know if i can franken-monitor the retina screen with a normal macbook pro 13" screen?

Hi, would like to know you'z macbook pro retina 13" avg cpu temp? Mine is kinda high when idling araoud 60c-70c. Plus when scanning for malware or gaming it will easily hit 100c. Any thoughts?

Anyone knows how much does it cost to repair the speaker?

My MBP Retina Mid 2015 is making a buzzing noise at the left speaker all of a sudden, like blown bass. I wasn't playing loud music actually, the problem suddenly occurs.

If still got warranty, send to SC bro.

Using fan controls, its averaging around 58 -60 degrees. CPU1 and CPU2 having higher side.

You could try if there is someone willing to do it, but I am sure it would be difficult as I am sure the ribbon cables differs between the two since both having different resolutions etc etc.

Warranty just expired on June. And I too bad I didn't purchase the AppleCare plan.

Hi All,
Can I buy SSD for MBP here locally? Im currently using 256, planning to get 512.

Thanks!

Depends on your MBP model and which year it is. The older ones you can get it here but the newer ones requires purchasing the SSD overseas.

I guess the thermal paste used in manufacturing isn't that good. Currently using smcfancontrol to increase fan rpm when temp increase.

It gets bloody expensive when upgrading after purchase mbp.... those who bought 128Gb many got issues, but 256 should be manageable. I am on 256gb and I opted for a cloud storage rather than gettign and upgrade.

What sort of temperatures your mbp experiencing? Mine do get really hot whilst playing simulation games, can relly hear the fans at max speed but its about 2 years still ok .

especially when there's only a few sellers on eBay right now. Im gonna buy the 1TB SSD from eBay the moment when i have the extra cash laying around. As of now it stands at a price of 1699 USD lol.
