[Query] Cracked display of MacBook Air M1 13" (2020 model)

Greetings,

My MacBook Air M1 13" screen got cracked due to obstruction while closing the lid (courtesy - "my little one"). It's a 2020 model and was purchased/manufactured in 2021.

Apple support is silent on helping me with even an approximate quote for the repair/replacement of display panel. Their only response is to visit the service, wait in queue and pay visitation charges to even get a quote. But I heard that it will certainly be north of Rs. 40000/-.

I spoke to a couple of local known service vendors who quote 22k - 30k for refurbished, non-original and original Apple display panel.

Can anyone suggest a known trusted service vendor in Bangalore for Apple MacBooks. Also, does anyone have any idea on what kind of spend am I looking at? The new one (M1 Air 13") costs about 56000/- in Amazon today.

Appreciate your help here.

Thanks,
Arya

Does it have external video port? you can connect an external monitor and use it or pay the apple tax. In bangalore you can visit sp road. Or just do a search on YouTube for best apple repair shop in Bangalore. You'll get some good links who advertise discount of you quote their YouTube etc.

I checked some folks - one local repairs in HSR, iRepair and iFixIndia.

I got quotes of 22-24k, for OEM display kit (as claimed). They will give free months warranty. Have not yet coughed up enough courage to visit Apple service.

Thanks.
