Review on πŸ“± Fixcracked iPad 4 Touch Screen Replacement Parts Digitizer Glass Assembly + Professional Tool Kit - Black by Jose Smith

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Not easy but saves money if you have time and patience

Watch the YouTube tutorials on how to remove and replace the glass on the iPad 4 and pause at each stage. Pros can do this in about 10 minutes, but it took me over an hour β€” at least partly because I didn't start with a video to give me tips on how to heat the rim of the jar with a hair dryer or heat gun so the glue will stick can solve. The instructions accompanying this product are printed on a sheet of paper in TEENY TINY font. I have good eyesight but it was so small it was difficult to read. I was able to remove the broken glass and install a new screen. Also the adhesive and the bezel that sits under the screen itself is a PAIN. I would recommend taking a pair of tweezers and slowly peeling off the sticky paper covering them as you lower them. once it goes down, it gets stuck. I think it's the same quality as the original screen - no. I expect it to crack. But every time I've had my screen replaced by professionals who charge over $100 to do it, it's also a weaker screen that breaks when you sneeze in the same room. save money, yes. Like new not quite

Pros
  • Pretty impressive
Cons
  • I vaguely remember
