Cracked screen

My daughter has just dropped her 7th gen iPad and cracked the screen. Is there a cheaper fix than the £246.44 cost? Could the screen be replaced? The iPad itself is under a year old.

iPad, iPadOS 14

You should make an appointment at the nearest Apple store for an evaluation and explanation of your options. It will certainly cost less if you purchased Apple Care.

No.

If you purchased that iPad without the foresight to pay for extended, two-year+, AppleCare+ warranty plan, then the limited, free, one-year AppleCare ( NO + sign ) warranty DOES NOT cover ANY user abuse or accidents/damage to the device.

Paid extended AppleCare+ covers any user damage with a small replacement device fee of $49 U.S.D..


Without extended AppleCare+, the same replacement device is going to cost you £245 which is approx. 60% of that iPad’s original cost.


Sorry, but it is what it is.


Apple and Apple Store locations DO NOT repair iPads but ONLY offer device replacements to expedite speedy customer service

.


Again, Sorry.
