15. Replace the MacBook screen
If you still have no luck after trying all the above tips, you may need to replace the screen.
When you consider replacing the MacBook screen, you may need to decide between using an Apple original screen or a cheaper third-party screen. We compare an Apple original screen with a third-party screen side by side shown in the following photo to help you better understand the differences.
The above two MacBook Pro A1708 were manufactured in 2017. Both MacBooks use the same background picture and set the brightness to maximum. The screen on the right-hand side is an Apple original screen; the one on the left-hand side is a third-party screen purchased online.
There are significant differences between an original Apple screen and a third-party screen as outlined here:
Apple uses high-quality LEDs as backlight sources. The backlight is pure white. On the other hand, the backlight of the third-party screen is bluish.
Apple’s high-quality LEDs provide brighter lights and remain near the same brightness level even after more the eight years. The brightness of some third-party screens may only maintain half of the original brightness level after a year of use.
Photo sharpness. The Apple original screen produces a much sharper image thanks to the high quality of the LCD panel, as you can see on the right-hand side of the above photo.

If you prefer to purchase a screen online and replace the screen yourself, you can save some money. You can search on eBay or other online platforms using the keyword " MacBook screen" followed by your MacBook model numbers such as A2141, or A2337. You can find the number on the MacBook back case.
Please remember that all the NEW screens sold online are after-market screens, no matter what the seller says or promises. Another concern is the warranty issue. Most online sellers make a small margin on the item. After the first-month money-back guarantee imposed by eBay or Amazon, how many sellers can afford to provide good warranty service for three months, six months or one year?
If you decide to replace the screen yourself, get a MacBook screen replacement guide for your specific model. There are huge differences in some models. You may need some basic Mac repair tools as well. You can order from iFixit. Also, Apple uses various sizes of screws in the MacBook. Make a photo of the screw’s positions and remember to put them back in their original positions. Last words, remember to disconnect the MacBook charger and battery before you replace the screen. Good luck!
