AsSalaamo Alaikum friends,

Where would you prefer to order a replacement screen for a laptop? Not looking for Refurb or Used, must be new and carry a warranty. I’ve found several places like Amazon, Ebay, and other websites I have never shopped with before, but I’m not sure which one to order with.

Directly order it from manufacturer.

Agree. That is the only way to get a warranty that would be worth something....

Thanks brothers.

So, checked with HP Parts; the LED screen is $143.xx, misc. vendors sell for $45-$60 including shipping. They have it labeled as manufactured by HP. Am I paying an extra hundo for just one year of warranty?

Yes you are. Its also a guaranty that its from HP and not from HIP in China making it with spare parts.

Its an old laptop. Why you wanna spend this kinda money one it ? You'll be replacing it in a year or two anyways . Just get the screen replaced and sell it off and buy a new one .

HP Doesn't makes LCD screens, they source it from LG/Samsung/AU/ etc, so why gave HP a markup on the screen price again? get it from the third party that actually makes the screen

I changed my Lenovo screen a couple of years back with an after market screen, cost me about $40. 2 years, and its working well. No reason to go to the dealer for an old laptop.

Can you replace it easily? If you can then buy it from 3rd party seller.

Re: Preferred vendor for LED Screen/Laptop?

Yes, insha Allah. Installation is very straight forward and basic.

coincidentally I have the same HP dv6 laptop sitting around and with the same exact specs and has the same problem as yours ; needed to replace the LED screen. I got a slightly used LED screen from a computer shop nearby and installed it. Works pretty good. I wonder if the same model has a defect with its screen :S
