iPad Repair/Upgrade

I have an iPad 6th Gen 32GB.


Can the 32GB logic board be upgraded/replaced with an iPad 6th gen 132GB logic board?



The home button is having problems, and if I have to replace the logic board w/home button (to preserve touch ID function), it would be nice to up the storage at the same time.


Killing two birds with one stone...



Thanks!

No.

If you want/need a larger intenal storage iPad, you will need to purchase a,larger capacity internal storage model.

Apple Stores DO NOT repair iPads.

To expedite speedy customer service, Apple ONLY offers in/out of warranty device replacement iPads od the exact same purchased model.


If your iPad has purchased/paid extended AppleCare+, a replacement iPad of your exact same model, ( in lieu of an actual iPad repair ) will cost a smalll free of $49 U.S.D..

Extended paid AppleCare+ covers all user damages and one user damage incident per year.


If only the free, one-year, limited AppleCare ( no + sign ) or NO paid, extemded AppleCare+ warranty, then the cost of that replacement iPad will cost you 60% of that iPad's original full price.



Sorry & Best of Luck to You!
