Macbook Pro graphic slab, warranty, repair fee, etc.

If you are using Macbook Pro and experience the following symptoms, be careful!

macbook pro graphic failure

This model is now a little earlier macbook Pro A1286 15 inches (2011),
When you turn it on, the color is strange, and there are lines and noise on the screen.
It is thought that it is a fault of the liquid crystal when thinking about it normally, but actually, the graphic is broken and it is happening.

 

Macbook Pro recalls

Because it was a fairly famous story, I think that there are a lot of people who know it, but there was a recall in some models of Macbook Pro before.
The models are Macbook Pro 2011 15 inches and Macbook Pro 2011 15 inches, but it was free if you requested repair at the time of the recall announcement at that time.
However, because the warranty period has passed now, it does not accept at the manufacturer.
Therefore, it becomes a choice of whether to fix it at a private repair shop or to replace it.

In addition, the Retina model released after the Macbook Pro 2011 model also announced a recall!
Retina models cover 2012 Mid and 15 inches of the 2013 Early model.
The warranty period has ended on December 31, 2016.

 

What happens if the graphics fail?

There are various graphic failures, and there are times when I said that the screen is not visible even though the screen is reflected as in the image above, and i have said that the screen does not appear at all even if I turn it on.
Graphic failure is the same symptom on Mac laptops and iMacs, but if lines enter evenly spaced, it is a prime example of a graphic failure.
In addition, the power of the Mac may be turned off without permission even if the power is turned on.
There is a possibility of graphic failure if the exact same symptom is displayed on the external display, or liquid crystal failure if it is displayed normally on the external display side.
If you are not familiar with computers because it is difficult to isolate the breakdown, it is good to have a diagnosis at a Mac repair specialty store near you.

 

IMac, laptop graphic differences

If the graphics break down, the iMac will be easier to repair.
Because in the case of imac, it is a card type, but in the case of a laptop, it is attached directly to the logic board.
If you have ever disassembled a Mac, you will be able to exchange the graphics card of the iMac,
In the case of notebook types such as Macbook and Macbook Pro, logic board repair is required, so it is not possible to repair it so easily.
At present, there are many stores that do not repair logic boards and accept only logic board replacements even in companies that are repairing Macs.
However, even if it is said that it is easy to repair in the case of iMac, the graphics card is often said that the budget is likely to be repaired because the parts price is expensive.
In that case, I think that it is good to judge whether it is a model to use for many years to use in the future, and to consider it by a new purchase or repair.

 

About the repair price of the Mac

There are two parts that cost a high repair fee on a Mac, and it is a liquid crystal or logic board.
Depending on the model and year, in the case of the latest Macbook Pro touch bar model, both are over 100,000 yen when you get an estimate in the Apple Store.
It seems that the liquid crystal exchange alone cost about 130,000 to 150,000 yen.
Compared to the purchase price of a Mac a long time ago, it is an impression that the price at the time of the new purchase has jumped a lot,
If you are considering a new Macbook Pro or iMac, we recommend that you join Apple Care.

Recently iMac Pro was released and became a lot of buzz, but I think that it was about 500,000 yen in the lowest spec, 1.6 million yen in the highest spec.
I do not think that there is a person who does not subscribe to Apple Care in this price range indeed, but it is better to subscribe by any chance.
Because it is a site that publishes decomposition mainly, I want to disassemble iMac Pro someday,
It's a bit expensive.
