Here is Dedias report card for their replacement touch screen. Quality A Appearance A Packaging A Adhesive A Tools A- Instructions D- Dont take on a screen replacement project unless you are competent repairing a variety of things and have a lot of patience. I replaced the screen on my Ipad Air. Overall I was very happy with the product. There were no instructions about how to install the screen and the video was only partly helpful. In the end the screen was installed and I am happy with the results. Installation requires patience. The toughest part of the repair is getting the old screen removed and installing the ribbon connectors. It is tough to get the screen removal process started. Dont rush it. To remove the old ribbon connectors took two minutes. To install the new connectors took 45 minutes. This is not a defect in the replacement screen. It is related to the original design of the Ipad air. The screws are very tiny and easy to lose. Put them someplace other than to of your desk or workbench. Losing one will dramatically extend the repair time.

Ive changed lots of screens. This replacement did not work and no, it was not another issue with the iPad. Unfortunately I did not have time to return it so Im out the money I spent on it. Buyer beware, mine did not work.

No instructions. Why would you not put instructions in the box.

The adhesive to hold the screen in released in less than an hour.
