Replacing Acer aspire 5 screen with 1080p panel

[jake1010]

The module I want is the ryzen 5 4500u but it only comes with a 756p display and I was going to upgrade it with a screen for another Acer aspire 5, can I do this?

OK, thanks

Why did they get rid of the 1080p display.  I just got an Aspire 5 Ryzen 3 with a 1080p 15" screen.

They don't have it for the ryzen 5 4500u version

In that case, since they have them already for that specific body, I would say it would be an easy swap and plug.  Well relative easy since you have to disassemble a ton and its thin plastic.

For the 4500u even Acer is only showing the Swift 3 and its an FHD display.  Try to find an Aspire 7 with the new 4000 series in it.  All these models advertise FHD displays.  Where is the listing you are finding that shows lower than FHD?

Finally found it.  Looking back I am pretty sure its a bad ad where the spec is listed wrong.  All of these new laptops come with 1080p panels, they cost about $5 to the manufacturer.  14" is where some cheap it out and put lower res screens.  I have not seen a sub 1080p 15" and up in a long while.
