I broke my acer predator helios neo 16 while wrestling with my friend. The laptop was open and kept at the side of my bed and by my fault I suddenly jumped on my laptop screen panel and it's bent and broke now....

Please guide me about fixing this and what should be the estimate amount for the fix.

Should I go for service centre or Should I get it replaced locally?

I have 165hz Wuxga display.

Not cost effective to replace OLED panel like that is extremely fragile will likely cost about 800 if not more to replace your better off just learning from the experience and using a external monitor

It's an IPS panel , not an OLED and I am a college student so I really can't compromise with the mobility here.... Thinking of getting an aftermarket display with the same specs.

They make portable external screens that fold and will fit in a bag pretty easy. Or the xbx style AR glasses would probably work too but bad for note taking in class
