hello, i’m checking if you can swap the screen from your 2011 MacBook Air to your 2017 model. no specific info online about this, but it might be possible depending on compatibility. as for the battery, both models recommend service, so moving the logic board could simplify things. let me know if you need more details!

While examining the setup, the parts have unique numbering and won’t fit together. The same applies to the logic boards—MagSafe and WiFi connectors won’t align.

These two devices aren't compatible. Their components don't match—specifically the screen and power source aren't interchangeable. Additionally, inserting the modern board into the old frame won't work because it won't fit, and the connectors won't align correctly.
