Thinking of Doing an iPad 2 Glass Replacement Yourself?

Posted by iPhone, 16th Jul 2013

The iPad 2 is many things: easy to use, beautiful and highly capable of pretty much anything! One thing it isn’t though, is easy to repair yourself – especially if you’re in need of glass replacement! With Apple charging between $199 and $419 (£131 - £276) for an iPad 2 glass replacement, you’re faced with a difficult choice: pay a fortune for glass replacement or say goodbye to your iPad.

One Man Tackled iPad 2 Glass Replacement Himself!

One man decided that he would take up the challenge of performing an iPad 2 glass replacement himself. Armed with a hairdryer and a couple of plastic opening tools, he warmed the glass and then set about picking off the shattered pieces, one by one. An incredibly time consuming task!

In the process of glass removal, he accidently ripped through the Wi-Fi antennae. Aware that this would probably happen, he had a spare to hand; lots of people that have attempted iPad 2 glass replacement themselves reported that they had also ripped through the Wi-Fi antennae – which turned out to be the hardest part!

The man, let’s call him Andy, found that he had to take out all the inner pieces to get to its connector. After that was finished, he had to remove the home button to complete the iPad 2 glass replacement, making it a total of three jobs for one.

The Conclusion?

iPad 2 glass replacement is achievable on your own back – but it’s very difficult. You need a good eye for detail and an incredibly steady hand – not to mention the patience of a saint! It’d be much easier to just pay a small fee – say £75 – to get your iPad 2 screen replaced professionally. Luckily that’s exactly what iPhone Surgery offer! With experienced technicians that know all there is to know about iPad, iPod and iPhone repairs and a rapid repair service, there’s no need to go through the hassle of doing it yourself!
