Apple's Limited Warranty
http://www.apple.com/legal/warranty/ for iPad excludes coverage for damage resulting from accident, disassembly, unauthorized service and unauthorized modifications.
Out-of-Warranty Service
If you own an iPad that is ineligible for warranty service but is eligible for Out-of-Warranty (OOW) Service, Apple will replace (Apple doesn't repair) your iPad with an iPad that is new or equivalent to new in both performance and reliability for the Out-of-Warranty Service fee listed below. (The replacement will most likely be a refurbished iPad in a brown box, however, it has a new screen, back and battery.)
| iPad model | Out-of-Warranty Service Fee |
|---|---|
| iPad mini | $219 |
| iPad 3rd, 4th generation | $299 |
| iPad 2, iPad | $249 |
A $6.95 shipping fee will be added if service is arranged through Apple and requires shipping. All fees are in US dollars and are subject to local tax.
Certain damage is ineligible for out-of-warranty service, including catastrophic damage, such as the device separating into multiple pieces, and inoperability caused by unauthorized modifications. However, an iPad that has failed due to contact with liquid may be eligible for out-of-warranty service. See http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=servicefaq&geo=United_States&product=ipad

Cheers, Tom 😉
makes no sense for me to repair my mini 16gb through Apple for $219, when brand new unit costs $300.
I dropped my ipad mini 2 days into owning it...... to say the least i was a little bit annoyed. Phoned apple and they gave me a rediculus price; almost the price of the ipad mini in the first place.
i spoke to a friend and he gave me this website www.ipadrepairnorthampton.com so i got on the net and ordered the repair and sent of my ipad mini.
and this morning received my ipad back fully repaired.
now my first point of call today is to get a protective case from for my ipad mini.......... any reccomendations for a good case that will protect my ipad will be greatly appreciated as i keep hearing storys about people dropping there ipad in a case a smashing the screen.
any help please, i have heard otterbox is a good case..... anyone got any experience with otterbox cases.
apple replaces ipad with a new one in case it's a singe hairline crack.
But at what cost?
