I bought this screen because several people on message boards have said it is the best of the 4 different kinds used in the last generation Macbooks. I received it and everything seemed okay at first. However just one day after installing it, I started having problems with horizontal lines in the screen. I took it apart to check my connections and they were fine. When I put it back together it worked for a few minutes, then the entire screen filled with lines.
I’ve never seen a screen with build quality of such a low caliber. It broke when I didn’t have it for a day. Sadly I can’t return it, due to the fact that I smashed it in anger.
Also, I’m not sure if it was due to the fact that i was shipped the TLB1 and not the TLA1 screen.

Just a short review since Amazon is prompting me to…My son’s Macbook got a star crack which spread. Apple wanted too much to fix it so I did it myself. Very straightforward. Link to video to install came with the screen. He doesn’t notice any difference from the factory original. So 1 month now and very satisfied….

This screen worked great to replace the original in my macbook and I think it might even be brighter then the original! great product!

If for some reason your screen is not working or is cracked (like mine was), this may be the best solution for you. The price is right as getting it replaced by professionals would easily cost hundreds of dollars. In particular, Apple will charge an obscenely high price to replace the LCD screen of a macbook.
One caveat: replacing the monitor is no easy feat; it will take a mini-screwdriver and plenty of patience. There are plenty of guides with pictures and directions on the Internet on how to do this. I personally recommend you to use the following: [...]
The pictures are great, but moreover it’s the best directions (there’s a couple of ways to replace the screen).

No complaints, got the item quickly, was well packaged, install went fine. Used the “hard install” as detailed at ifixit since the machine was torn down for other repairs, and its pretty tedious, but in the end the screen works fine. No problems with brightness, screen has a slight bluish tint it seems but i haven’t calibrated it, probably only an issue for serious photo and movie editors, but if you’re pro you use crt anyways and better than a macbook for final color. Probably correctable, have no complaints, good cheap replacement.
