Hello,
I would like to replace my 1360 x 768 screen to a 1080p display just because I am not used to the small screen.
But I wasn't able to find any post or disassemble guide with replacing the screen, just wandering if anyone had done it before?
I think a $90 upgrade wouldn't be too much for this since I really like 1080p display
and I think it would be handle the resolution since UX32VD is 1080p
Can anyone share their experience or tell me how to take the screen down properly?
thanks

But.. is it possible change the display? I'm interesting on buy a UX32VD R300 (1360 x 768) and i would like install a 1080p screen.
Are screens IPS? Where do you buy it? -
According to ASUS, it is IPS display
I am just wondering if I can disassemble the monitor, so want to do it!!!
here is the pdf file from ASUS said about the display

"Full-HD on a 13 inch notebook sounds rather tempting at first but could also lead to problems with the display size of screen elements. At 166 dpi (dots per inch), the screen can display content in much more detail than the HD variant (118 dpi). The tradeoff is that unless one adjusts scaling, one will be confronted with tiny dialogs, fonts, and windows. Our test model therefore defaulted to a scale of 125% and the browser enlarged things by another 10%. With these settings it was possible to work comfortably for the most part, but there is still the possibility of software issues with scaled settings."

I couldn't find a disassemble guide, but Asus may be willing to upgrade it for you via RMA. I'm not sure how much that would run, though. -
I really want to use 1080p screen!!!
anyone got tips for me? -
Here is teardown guide from iFixit:

You will need a heating gun to take the bezel off. You could probably Google for Macbook screen replacement or similar as in some models the bezel/glass was also glued and required a heatgun.
Also, be aware that LCD cable must have the wires to support such high resolution. For example, on some Dell models if your laptop came with a lower resolution screen, then your LCD cable would be missing some wires and you'd need to get a new cable where does wires are present to get full resolution. It has something to do with LVDS1 vs LVDS2 or something like that. -
Have you managed to replace your screen? I want to do the same, but can't find from where to order the screen. Can you tell me where I can find the

Hey Guys,
did someone manage to replace the screen? are all Zenbooks built in the same way?
By iFixit's guide, it looks totally doable!
I'm looking into replacing the display of ux31e with the one from ux32vd, IPS, FHD screen. Anyone know if that would be possible?
Thanks for any clues on that!! -
I also would love to know if this is possible. I currently have a UX32a in great condition but I managed to wreck the screen, and I'm currently running an external monitor.
I would not attempt this myself but if I thought I could be assured of buying the right 1080p upgrade, I'd happily pay someone to do it for me... (although I do hesitate a bit because my unit suffers from that notorious Zenbook "Sudden shut down issue" once every few weeks or so.) -
HI I have a UX32A and what to upgrade the screen to a 1080p screen and I have a few questions.
1. Are all the zenbook screen compatible with each other?
2. Do I need any software or drive in order for the screen to run properly?
3. My zenbook does not have a a dedicated NVIDIA GeForce GT 620M GPU like the UX32vd instead I have a intel HD graphic 4000 built in. Will the 1080p screen run properly?
Zenbook UX32A screen disassemble guide?? Can I find it?
