Laptop Screen Repair vs Replacement: When to Fix and When to Replace

## Laptop Screen Repair vs Replacement: Making the Right Decision

When your laptop screen breaks, you face a critical decision: repair the screen or replace the entire laptop? This guide helps you make an informed choice based on cost, value, and practicality.

### Understanding the Decision Framework

**Rule of 40%**
If repair costs exceed 40% of the laptop's current market value, replacement often makes more sense.

**Age Consideration**
Laptops over 5 years old may not justify significant repair investments due to declining performance and support.

### Cost Comparison Analysis

| Laptop Age | Screen Repair Cost | Replacement Threshold |
|------------|-------------------|----------------------|
| 1-2 years | RM 400-800 | Repair recommended |
| 3-4 years | RM 400-800 | Evaluate total value |
| 5+ years | RM 400-800 | Consider replacement |

### When to Repair

**Repair Makes Sense When:**
- Laptop is less than 4 years old
- Performance meets your needs
- No other hardware issues
- Quality of screen is important to you
- Repair cost is under 40% of device value

### When to Replace

**Replacement Makes Sense When:**
- Multiple components are failing
