I have noticed in direct sunlight that my iPad 2 screen has started to scratch, can I get this repaired through apple? (I am willing to pay) It wouldnt bother me but it's less than a month old. Think I have cleaned the screen to much :-(
iPad 2, iOS 4.3.2
Of course anything made by Apple can be repaired by Apple for a price. Out of curiosity did you use a screen protector film? just wanted to know so I could avoid that brand if it doesn't work.
I didn't use a screen protector, I had the first generation iPad since launch without a screen protector and that didn't have a scratch on it when I sold it. I think having an iPad encourages OCD. Any clue on AppleCare repair prices?
No sorry, I have heard though that it isn't as simple as an iphone screen replacement and you may have to be without it for a while.
Any ideas on what scratched it?
Sorry, excessive cleaning OCD scratches, disregard my last question
I think my cleaning cloth became dirty so it scratched when I cleaned it. I think your right about the screen, it's glued into place, you have to heat it with a heat gun to get it off. Have you got an iPad 2? What do you think about it?
I think your OCD should include, as mine does, a deep concern about the cleanliness of the (possibly grit-ridden) microfibre that you scrub across the screen. 😉
I ordered a 64GB Black wifi/3g and 32GB white wifi/3g ATT on 9 April so I'm just in the waiting pool. I ordered thru AAFES to save the sales tax but I think it's going to cost me a longer wait time but I'm learning all the tips and tricks while I wait to keep entertained so at least I'll be up to date when I get it. I'm currently in screen protector research mode and your post caught my eye. I fully expect it will exceed my expectations and hopefully I'll miss all the early production glitches people are having, not unexpected though on a new product so if I get unlucky I'll be knowledgeable on what to look for.
So it's not just me then :-)
