Macbook Complete A1425 Early 2013 Screen - Silver - OEM Quality
This complete lid assembly restores factory Retina clarity and color on your MacBook Pro 13‑inch A1425 Early 2013 while cutting bench time. The unit ships pre‑assembled in silver with the LCD, front glass, aluminum top cover, hinges, FaceTime HD camera, clutch cover, and display cable already integrated for a straight swap.
The 13.3‑inch Retina panel delivers 2560 × 1600 at 227 ppi with an ips matrix, LED backlight, 60 Hz refresh, and a glossy finish that matches the original look. Brightness is calibrated to original spec at approximately 300 nits with stable white point and uniform backlight, ensuring consistent color across refurb lots.
Key Specifications And Build Details
The display uses an eDP interface with a 30‑pin connector and supports the native 16:10 aspect ratio used by macOS scaling modes. The camera module is the original 720p FaceTime HD type with the standard microphone and ambient light sensor interoperability retained via the system board, so sleep and auto‑brightness behave as expected.
The aluminum lid is anodized in silver with accurate fit at the hinge barrels and clutch, preventing torque creep and lid wobble after reassembly The assembly aligns to the factory hinge angle range and maintains correct bezel gap and gasket compression to reduce dust ingress over time.
What’s Included And Compatibility Notes
Included components are LCD panel, front glass, aluminum top cover, hinges, hinge caps, clutch cover, FaceTime HD camera, display cable, and mounting points for antenna leads. The assembly arrives test‑lit, pixel‑checked, and color‑checked, so you can install and return the device to service without panel‑level rework.
Compatibility is specific to MacBook Pro 13‑inch Retina A1425 Early 2013 models. If you service fleets, match by model identifier and EMC on the bottom case before booking the repair to avoid cross‑generation cable and hinge variance.
Installation Tips, Tools, Testing
Recommended tools are P5 pentalobe for the bottom case, T5 for internal fasteners, and T8 for hinge screws, plus a spudger and ESD protection. Always disconnect the battery before unplugging the display cable, support the lid when releasing hinge screws, and snug the hinges only after verifying even panel alignment along the palm rest.
Post‑install, run a full bright‑dot check at multiple backgrounds, verify camera preview, confirm sleep‑wake via lid sensor, and cycle through scaled resolutions to ensure eDP link stability. Finalize by setting macOS color profile to the default for the panel and checking lid tension to prevent stress on the clutch over time.
The screens are covered with a 2-year warranty. The warranty does not cover man-made damage.
