Ease of installation has nothing to do with the manufacturer of this glass

It can be a frustrating experience forcibly prying off your iPad while trying to remove that old glass that shatters when you touch it. They heat up the iPad so much that you're afraid of melting something nearby. You've finally removed the glass, removed the LCD, and properly removed the old ribbon cables. Easy road here. Installation takes 5 minutes compared to an hour of agonizing removal of old broken glass. You've reached the 2-yard line, ready to hit and land, but no, running the ribbon cable on the new glass prevents that. Now you're stuck with a partially open tablet, but yeah. It works when you turn it on. I stopped and bought a cover that covers the sides. It works flawlessly, but under that blanket I know it's a disaster. I take victory

Pros
  • Builds confidence
Cons
  • I have no aversion, everything is fine
