Is there such a thing as a replacement screen for iPads??

[PacificDogwod]

Is it worthwhile attempting a repair?

DS2 dropped his iPad so awkwardly from about 6 in on to carpeted floor that the corner cracked and there's a crack along the diagonal of the whole screen.

Any experiences?

I've replace my own iphone screen, it's a very fiddly job. I took apart my phone and a did one we had lying about and swaped the screen.

You can buy replacement screens (but not official ones from apple) and a quality set of tools is very helpful (gadgety family so we have them). Or you could just have a shop repair it, apple will replace it with a refub or other shops will replace the screen (with mixed results).

Timpsons Shoe Repairs do iPad screen repairs. Costs about £99.

Oh, wow, thanks!

We seem to have found a place that will do it for £100.
Or the neighbour of a friend's friend can do it for £75 - methinks, not.

Timpsons? Really?! How fascinating.

Yes, try the independent repair shops. Got ours repaired for £70 at a local phone shop after DS bit it and cracked the screen.
DH googled replacing it himself having replaced iPhone screens previously but considered it to be too fiddly in comparison
