For reference the laptop model is a Lenovo Ideapad S145-15API
Hello, last week my laptop screen started flickering a lot, at first i was afraid it was a GPU problem, but my external monitor image is 100% fine, no problems there, so I discarded that possibility and decided to buy a flat cable. To my surprise replacing the flat cable didn't solve the issue so I'm making this post to ask if this can be an issue on the actual screen before I buy a new one. Here's a video of the problem for reference: https://streamable.com/teiib9. In the end I also show side by side the external monitor and laptop screen.
I ask if this can be a problem in the actual screen because i have never seen something like this as a screen problem. For me it made more sense to be the flat cable, although I'm no expert in laptops or screens. Laptop never took any hit, fall etc. In my head screen problems were always dead pixels, burn in, it would straight up not show anything etc. Also I'm afraid it might be a problem in the flat cable socket in the laptop's motherboard although the appearance of the socket is fine, any help appreciated thanks.
