    Okay, so I came back from a late night of work, and I was taking my backpack off and it slipped off my arm and crashed on the ground. My laptop was in there and needless to say it the screen cracked. I have an asus model U46E 14" screen and as a college student I don't have that much money to spend. Can anyone refer me to a supplier that has a good quality replacement screen with the same resolution and that is reliable and won't break after a couple weeks of use? THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP!

    I got one from here for an Asus G73JGH- very fast shipping (3 days including a holiday) and excellent panel (AUO) . The only downside was it has 1 stuck/dead pixel which is barely noticeable https://www.laptopscreen.com/English/section/search/ --- Put your complete model # in the search box for best results. Good Luck!
    Note I called them just to verify what brand and model number of panel I would be getting

    If I'm not mistaken the part number for the screen is HW14WX101, google returns many sources including ebay where you can obtain this panel.

    Good luck.

    You don't need the exact same screen. Also many places sell compatible screens, but they may be better or worse than the original one. Go to panelook.com and find yourself a compatible LCD with better specs and search for it on Ebay.
