    Doesn’t look like there are obvious signs of physical damage.

    I’d take it to Apple, play dumb, don’t mention the dice and see if they’ll warranty repair it.

    Should still be under limited warranty. Mine was when I exchanged it and I bought like a month after release.

    How the hell did you hit your screen with dice? And I’m kind of surprised that caused this damage.

    You said this is less than 30 days old? Go to the Apple Store and tell them it appeared after a bit of use. No damage. Try to get the warranty to apply.

    why do Mac screens break this way constantly, like it’s not even cracked just lines and bars?

      OLED screens are not as strong as old LCD screens. I had a crappy Dell PC a while ago and all the bezel broke and cracked around screen because it was made of the cheapest quality plastic, but the screen still worked.

    Hard to see but I don’t see a point of impact.

    As a former genius, I would cover that. That line doesn’t travel to a point of impact. Just don’t mention anything about the dice lol. Just say you opened your laptop and saw the line on the screen.

    Source: previous Mac genius and sent computers to depot where these type of screens would get covered.

    they’ll charge the half price of a laptop so give it to a poor (like me) and buy another one instead of repair

    I just had this same issue on my MacBook m2 (dog bit the edge of the screen) $550 after everything. Make sure to backup your data because Apple will wipe it on a screen replacement.

    It doesn’t look damaged to me, see if Apple will fix it under warranty and keep the hookers and blackjack to yourself.

      Clarification: this is a great idea. Don’t tell them it got hit by dice… say it just happened and it may fall under warranty. In all honesty, dice shouldn’t cause this to happen anyways.
