Vostro 5568 4GB 7200U 500GB HDD (NOT SSD) screen upgrade
Hi, I have a Vostro 5568 with a 1366x768 screen and would like to upgrade it to the 5568 1080p screen (from the newer model I guess) What is the part number of the screen cable please for the 1080p screen, or will my current one work? Also will it fit and work properly, please?
Thanks

Most newer systems (of which this is one) use eDP cables - same cable for all screens.
If it's a touchscreen, the cable will be replaced with the display (it's a single fused assembly). If it's not, the existing cable should work with a higher resolution screen. It should also be noted that if the system is under warranty, replacing the screen WILL void the remaining warranty on the system, if that's a consideration.
