I have a MacBook Pro Retina 15 "mounting an LG Display. Currently it seems to work perfectly and shows no lack of ghosting of the image. But if from there to a year I'll have problems will Apple recognize them and would provide the repair warranty?
I mean, does Apple recognize the ghosting problem with LG displays?
Thank you for helping me!
MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2)
No they do not. In fact just the opposite. Some with LG displays and ghosting have been told by Apple it is normal and all screens do it. When in fact they do not.
Buy Applecare extended warranty. Otherwise when your 1 year standard warranty runs out and you have any problems with that retina you might as well throw it away. The cost to fix that unit, should a problem of any type become apparent, will be close to buying a new unit. All the parts are either soldered to the logic, Mother, board or glued into the aluminum case parts. The few parts that aren't are the logic board itself, the WiFi/Bluetooth daughter card, the fans & heatsink system and the proprietary SSD that plugs into a socket on the logic board.
The screen is glued into the case lid and can not be changed without replacing the complete lid along with the WiFi/BT antennas, the web cam and of course the aluminum shell.
Hi! I live in Italy. We have 2 years of standard warranty. In the 24 months if the ghosting problem appear can I ask for a display or entire machine substitution?
Yeah don't bet on that EU 2 year warranty stuff. Good Luck and Best Wishes.
