In addition to price changes, the arrival of new iPads Pro e Airlast week, also brought a change in the way Apple carries out some repairs.
This is because, until then, even though Apple charged different amounts for different iPad repairs, it generally replaced the entire unit — even if the consumer did not pay for it. Now, owners of new tablets can only replace the front windowswithout receiving a replacement unit.
The change was noticed as a result of the change in the cost of repairing the screen of these devices for those who contracted the AppleCare+. According to noticed by MacRumorsin the United States the fee for this repair is now US$30 — compared to US$50 for other models, even with the company’s extended insurance.
Already Apple support page, it is also informed that the value applies only to newly announced models and only to the repair of the front glass. If the device has any other damage, a repair fee will be charged. US$100 (for those who have AppleCare+).
Cracked screen repair service fee (front only) is only available on iPad Pro 13-inch (M4), iPad Pro 11-inch (M4), iPad Air 13-inch (M2), iPad Air 11-inch models (M2) and when there is no other damage present. For other iPad models or damage, you may pay a different fee.
The change is equivalent to what happened with the iPhones 14/14 Plus and, last year, with the top-of-the-line models, so that the repair of the rear glass was made easier — and, consequently, the cost of the repair was reduced. reduced.
