Bezel Replacement for Framework Laptop 13 Pro

Open the laptop so the screen sits flat on your work surface.

The Bezel is secured with magnets.

Slide your fingernail under the inside edge of either bottom corner of the Bezel.

Pull the Bezel away from the screen to release the first few magnets.

Lift the Bezel around the perimeter of the screen until all of its magnets are released.

Remove the Bezel.

Before continuing, check if cables next to the hinges are routed properly:

The Display Cable should be routed just above the hinge without any large gaps.

The Display Cable should be routed between the metal clips.

The Webcam Cable should be routed just above the hinge without any large gaps and shouldn't overlap with the antenna cables.

If the cables aren't routed properly, the Bezel won't sit flat and you risk damaging the Bezel and the Display during reassembly.

If there's any liners covering adhesive on the back of the Bezel, remove them now.

Align the bottom edge of the Bezel with the top edge of the Input Cover and press down so the Bezel covers the hinges and cables.

The bottom edge of the Bezel should sit flat and the magnets at its edges should "snap" into place.

Lay the rest of the Bezel over the screen and let the magnets pull it into place.

Check that all four corners of the Bezel sit flat on the screen. If they're uneven, do the following:

Use your fingers to press around the edge of the Bezel. The magnets should easily snap into place.

If the Bezel is still uneven, remove the Bezel and reseat it. Refer to this step for how the cables should be routed.

If there are any plastic liners covering the webcam and microphone, remove them.
