What You Need To Know About iPad Screen Repairs
Your iPad may be damaged in a variety of places, from a table to a bag. Of course, newer iPads include Gorilla glass displays, which are scratch-resistant and less prone to shatter when dropped. That does not, however, imply that it is not indestructible. Yes, the screen can be damaged with time, especially if it is dropped or bumped, which can cause cracks and screen shattering.
One of the most prevalent issues that many iPad owners face at some time is iPad screen repair. Screen damage is unavoidable, no matter how careful you are. A cracked or scratched iPad screen is not only ugly, but it may also prevent you from using your iPad.
What can you do now to repair your iPad's screen? Let's have a look.
Can I replace my iPad screen or get it fixed?
Well, yes. But, are you going to work on an iPad screen replacement? If you are one of those ardent DIYers, then you are probably thinking of replacing your screen on your own. While DIY iPad repairs seem to be cost-effective, it is not recommended as you run the risk of damaging your device to the point where it becomes irreparable. Many have learned too late that replacing a damaged screen is more difficult than what was said in DIY blogs and YouTube videos. Replacing just the glass is even more difficult than replacing the entire screen.
Of course, there are replacement kits online with the glass to replace the screen but not the entire screen. So, if you want to replace or repair your screen, approach Apple or a third-party centre that specialises in iPad screen repairs.
Have Apple Fix it
Yes, Apple will replace your broken screen. However, your iPad's warranty does not cover accidental damage. You're fortunate if you have AppleCare since you'll be covered for two incidences. Even if you have AppleCare, you won't be able to have the screen repaired for free. You must also pay a £49 service fee in addition to the £99 for AppleCare. If you've used up your insurance, you'll have to pay the whole sum, which may be anything from £200 to £600. A replacement screen would cost as much as a new iPad without AppleCare.
Have a third-party fix it
You can take your iPad to the third-party facility if you don't have AppleCare or if your coverage has expired. It will, however, void your warranty. However, if you are out of warranty in any event and can't afford an Apple screen replacement, this is the best option. The third-party repair company can fix the screen for a reasonable fee, and the components come with a three-month guarantee. All you have to do now is locate a reputable repair facility.
