"This is, quite honestly, the machine I feel Apple should have launched as the new Unibody MacBook Pro. The engineering of the new bezel (in a nice matte black finish) is perfect; it looks just as good as the one on the stock MacBook Pro machine sitting next to it in TechRestore’s booth."
Left: Matte Finish              Right: Original Glossy

What this service includes: Replacement of the super glossy, super shiny LCD screen on your MacBook with a matte finish, non-glossy screen. We also remove the shiny glass cover on your MacBook and replace it with a black bezel that surrounds the matte finish screen. The replacement screen will be brand new and include a 1-year TechRestore warranty. We will perform the service within 24-hours (M-F) of receipt of your Mac.
Matte Finish Screen Replacement FAQ
What does the screen replacement include?
       In order to replace the super-shiny screen with a traditional matte (anti-glare) screen, we remove the glass screen cover (you know, that mirror-like glass you have been seeing your reflection in), then we remove the glossy LCD (LED backlight) screen. We then replace the glossy screen with a matte-finish screen that has the exact same specifications as the original; same resolution, same color depth, same LED backlight...you get the idea. We install a custom black bezel around the edge of the screen that matches the finish of the MacBook and looks great. The bezel has all the required holes in it for the iSight and other items that sit at the top of the MacBook screen housing.
Are you just putting an anti-glare screen cover on the screen?
       No. Our beta testers on this service have told us they do not like the anti-glare covers since they tend to distort images and make color matching very difficult. We will be replacing your entire LCD panel.
How long does the service take?
       The screen replacement is completed within 24-hours (M-F) of receipt to us.
What about my warranty?
       We provide a 1-year warranty on your new screen. Our technicians have performed tens of thousands of repairs on in-warranty laptops since 1994 and we have never had a warranty declined by the manufacturer due to our service. Of course, the manufacturer will not cover any parts we install on your laptop, we take care of that for you. In the unlikely event that you have a problem getting warranty service on your laptop after we perform any repair or upgrade, simply give us a call so we can provide you with assistance. We are here to help.
Can I keep my old, glossy screen?
       Now, why would you want that shiny screen if you're replacing it with a matte screen? :-) Seriously though, the low price of the Matte Finish Upgrade requires a trade-in of your existing screen.
