Review on High-Quality iPad Air 2 LCD Touch Screen Digitizer Assembly Replacement with Free Tool & Tempered Glass (White) by Shane Ryder

The product itself is exactly what we want. It's not an Apple branded screen, but then again, I'm not paying for an Apple branded screen. I am paying for a screen that works exactly like an Apple branded screen. However, I have a comment about the screen. For people like me who don't disassemble an iPad every day, it's hard to know exactly where to place the metal back for the home button. If you lean back a little, it won't fit properly and you won't be able to roll the glass all the way down. I learned that removing the screen to mount it further back would be difficult. The adhesive on the screen isn't amazing. Not only is it not as strong as I personally would have liked, while it works, these are clearly regular little sticks of glue that appear to work but are actually a bit thicker than they should be. Many screens I've ordered elsewhere in the past have come with adhesive strips that are close or identical to the OEM. You already have the image on the screen and you just have to peel off the plastic strip from the adhesive and you're done. No guesswork about where to go or anything like that. However, this screen comes with these little thin straight strips three or four inches long. So when you need glue in the corner like you should have, you have to sit down and cut it into these little pieces and it never comes together. look good or right. And when you're removing a cracked screen, which usually means it comes off in pieces, you probably have to do a lot of guessing about exactly where the adhesive should be. The adhesive that comes with a real iPad is very thin. This prevents extra creases etc, although it's a bit thicker than it should be so it leaves a bit more bulging at the edge, and as of course it's not quite where it should be because it's not the right type as such is, you'll probably end up wanting to make sure it's some kind of case, because if liquid gets to that edge, it's likely to end up in your iPad. However, the quality of the actual screen is good. It even comes with a tempered glass screen protector, which alone probably costs $30. Of course, it doesn't come with the usual cleaners you actually need to properly clean your screen before attaching it, but you can still get around that. So, as a real IT professional, would I order this screen again? Probably not, although I wouldn't say it shouldn't. If all you need is literally just an LCD and a digitizer and you know exactly what you're doing and say you already have a supply of glue or you can get glue elsewhere for a very cheap price then this is the one good screen . Everything I said negatively is just uncomfortable and that's it. However, if I'm going to spend that kind of money on my screen or something like that, I need at least a basic guide. It shows me simple things like exactly where to put that type of adhesive or where exactly to put the back plate for the home button on that particular screen. Something like that. And at the very least, I expect that if it comes with a screen protector, it will come with wipes and things like that to pre-clean the screen. As I said, none of this is a deal breaker, but it's impractical and if I can find something more convenient I'll probably go for it. If none of the disadvantages mentioned bothers you, you are welcome to order a screen, because as I said, the screen itself is good. I'll rate it because it's not a five star screen based on the things listed above. I don't plan to buy it again either, but I don't think it's bad enough to warrant three stars, but at the same time I won't buy it again, so it's still a bit, give it four stars to give unfavorable. Regardless, I'm still giving it four stars because the screen itself is close enough to OEM quality that I think it's warranted enough. I feel like there are so many little issues that are so easy to fix and if they did it would be a five star product.
