11 inch iPad Pro 2021 defect

I have a 3rd gen 2021 iPad Pro and the screen cracked without dropping. It was in backpack and case. The metal wrap around has plastic insert at bottom that I believe allows the iPad to flex ever so slightly. I paid for pro as it’s supposed to be well made. So I’m now responsible for screen replacement of 499 due to what I believe is defect, shouldn’t this be on Apple ?

iPad Pro, iPadOS 15

We are only Apple product users here, just like you.

Having a unprotected iPad, with no protective case, in a loose backpack, is a recipe for any kind of device abuse/damage.

You should have purchased paid, 2-years, extended AppleCare+ warranty for your expensive iPad Pro.

You didn't do this. You gambled nothing bad would happen to your iPad and your gamble was wrong.


If you feel strongly about your viewpoint, you need to take up this issue Apple support.

use the “Support” link, in the top black menu bar, at the upper right hand corner of every Apple Support Community Webpage to attempt to reach Apple support personnel.


Good Luck to You!
