Chosen Solution
I dropped my HP Spectre earlier today. When I booted it up, the bottom right corner is darker. I can still see the icons, and move my mouse through that area. I think it might be the backlight, but I’m not sure if it’s just disconnected or actually shattered. Does anyone have any suggestions in the way of whether I can fix it myself (I have amateur but decent hardware skills), or how much something like this would cost to get replaced, especially seeing as it is not necessarily affecting the performance of the device.
@mitchiet41 post some pictures showing what you are seeing, with your question. That way we can see what you see. Use this guide Adding images to an existing question for that. Going by your brief description, it is most likely a damaged panel. Here is to repair it HP Spectre 13-3010dx Screen Replacement and a replacment. The going rate for a complete display assembly looks like around ~300+USD
