Once the screen has been separated from the case, lift it slightly to reveal the display cable connected to the motherboard.
Gently push the tip of a spudger under the metal buckle to unclip it, then swing it over the socket.
Next, hold the buckle and cable together and gently pull the connector straight out of its socket.
To reconnect:
Grip the cable and buckle together and insert the connector fully into its socket.
Aligning the connector can be tricky. Reposition it as necessary and don't try to force it into the socket, or you may damage both the connector and its socket.
Flip the buckle over the socket and use a spudger to press the buckle down until it clicks into place.
Remove the screen.

Use a Phillips #00 screwdriver to remove the two screws securing the bracket covering the charging port.
Remove the black bracket.
Use a spudger or a clean fingernail to flip up the locking flap—this is the unlocked position.
Use the widest tool possible to avoid damaging the delicate hinge pins.
Once the flap is in the unlocked position, use tweezers or your fingers to gently pull the cable out of its socket by the brown tab.
To reconnect, make sure the locking flap is flipped up and gently reinsert the cable. Then, flip the locking flap down to secure the cable. The cable should slide into the socket with little to no force. If you're having trouble, remove it, check that the flap is fully unlocked, and try again.
