Is there any possibility that a Surface 4 has Surface 5 LCD?

I have Surface Pro 4 (This is the gift I have received) I dropped it and broke the LCD.

I bought an LCD, for Surface Pro 4, to repair it, from eBay. I removed the broken LCD, but the new one did not match the original cable.

I searched for letters written on genuine LCD, the letters is LP123WQ1. When I searched I got it was for Surface Pro 5, 1796.

I don’t understand, because mine is written 1724, behind the back.

What should I do?

Why is there another version of LCD on my Surface Pro 4?

Can I fix it with LCD, bought eBay?

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

I may have a similar problem! I have a surface pro 4 that was ordered on amazon. I have ordered a new lcd and digitizer and all matches but the cable connectors :( I have pictures but am not sure how to post them here.

Might be a little late to the party, but yes this is a very real possibility. My Surface Pro 4 screen cracked and I ordered a replacement on Amazon. The screen I got had a fault so the seller send me a Pro 5 screen with an adapter cable. So yes, my surface Pro 4 has a Pro 5 screen with the corresponding adapter cable

I realize this is an old thread but it's unanswered. The surface pro 4 uses the same screen as the surface pro 5 and 6 The cables are technically the same cable just a different shape. To use the surface pro 5 screen on a surface pro 4 you just need to get one of the new cables.
