There are several different types of video connectors used in laptops screens. For the most part the connectors are not interchangeable. Here are the most common types of video connectors that are in use today:
30-pin eDP – the main modern connector.
It is used on screens with resolutions up to 1920 x 1080. If your laptop was manufactured after 2014 and features screen resolution up to 1080p it is likely using this type of connector.
40-pin same physical connector standard but 3 different and incompatible signals
40-pin eDP Touch – used on newer laptops after 2015, the additional pins over the 30-pin eDP connector are needed for a built-in (on-cell) touchscreen functionality.
40-pin eDP QHD+ – used on newer laptops after 2015, the additional pins over the 30-pin eDP connector are needed for higher resolution options such as QHD (2560 x 1440) and even higher (4 channel eDP).
“40-pin eDP Touch” LCDs are not interchangeable with “40-pin eDP QHD+” screens. Even though the connectors are the same, plugging a “40-pin eDP Touch” LCD in-place of a “40-pin eDP QHD+” screen will not provide the touch functionality, and vice-versa, plugging a QHD screen in place of a 40-pin touchscreen will not provide higher resolution.
Typical LCDs are mounted with 2, 3 or 4 screws on the left and the right side of the LCD.
Some LCDs are mounted via built-in brackets.
Important! All product images match the exact bracket configuration of a replacement screen that will be sent to you. LCD brackets are built onto the LCD module – don’t confuse them with the LCD mounting brackets that are part of a laptop and should be unscrewed from the LCD and reused during the reinstallation process.
Examples of LCD mountings:
It is important to confirm the screen resolution before submitting an order: the same laptop model can come with different display resolutions.
If a laptop you are ordering a screen for works – turn it on and:
– go to On-line Resolution Check
OR
– for Windows XP, Windows 2000, Windows ME, Windows 98: Right-Click on Desktop -> Properties -> then in Display Properties navigate to Settings
– for Windows 10 and Windows 7 & Vista: Right-Click on Desktop -> Personalize -> Graphics Options
If a laptop you ordering a screen for is not functional:
– we recommend to pull your defective screen out and google screen model for specifications. You can find the screen model number on the sticker on the back of the screen. Check out our How to check your LCD screen model number article.
OR
– check your laptop manual under the laptop specifications section if you have one.
OR
– also you may be able to find you laptop specifications on manufacturers website using the laptop serial number, service tag or the model number (in Support section).
Letters on the right are the common abbreviations and can be used as resolution indicators.
