> (as seen by the other replies on this thread of people spending multiple hundreds to repair their screens) I'd rather buy a 500 EUR non Apple laptop than pay the 490 EUR I was quoted to repair my M1 MacBook Air's screen. I mean: I get it fixed, than what? It's still a prone-to-crack screen I get. And there's no way I'm thinking: "Oh well, rather than pay 490 EUR to fix the screen, I'll buy another M1". Well... I considered just buying a new M1: but not after having read about all the people having similar issues. Now I know I wasn't just unlucky and I know it wasn't my fault. I'm not interested in a fragile laptop.
