iPad Air 4 backlight bleed i’ve seen many complains about the same issue and unfortunately my iPad Air 4 came with it. I’d like to know what Apple does in this situation, does they replace the iPad or just the panel??

Backlight Issues Hi, Ive got an iPad 6, when its charged above about 60 percent the backlight will not work as normal. I had thought that the screen wasn't working at all but I can see that it is- its just that the backlight doesn't come on when pressing the home button. Ive found that pressing home then power, home, power etc will eventually get it to work- from which point everything is normal. Weirdly the number of cycles of the above button presses it takes to get the backlight to come on directly corresponds to the amount of charge it has- i.e. if its on 65 percent it may take two or three cycles of pressing, if its on 99 percent then it will take more like 30 cycles. This has happened since the iPad was about 4 months old, its never been out of the house or dropped or anything to cause any sort of physical damage. Has anyone experienced these issues?

iPad Pro backlight doesn’t work Suddenly, without being subject to any kind of accidental physical damage or improper use, the screen of my iPad Pro went black some days ago. It took me hours to finally understand that the iPad didn’t go off, but it was its backlight that didn’t work anymore. Has anyone had the same problem? I’m trying to understand if it could be a factory defect because the customer service said they can’t do anything to fix it. I swear the iPad is practically new, bought two years ago and I’m going crazy about the fact that a device this pricey and modern could break itself without me doing anything at all. Please let me know.

Too new to know this, but the 2020 iPad Air 4 uses the newest design language from the 2018/2020 iPad Pro models and I have not seen any backlight issue posts about these newer designed iPad Pro models.

Best of Luck to You!`
