T Phael Black Digitizer Repair Kit for 2017 iPad 9.7(A1822, A1823) / iPad 5 iPad Air 1st Touch Screen Digitizer Replacement (Without Home Button) with Tools + PreInstalled Adhesive

Having had to remove the OM digitizer, it is clear to see that apples adhesive is higher quality than what is preapplied. That said as long as you use a case that wraps around the screen, I wouldnt have too much concern. It has been almost 3 weeks since my install, and so far it is preforming well, and is still well set. TIP: This digitizer, as described, does NOT come with a home button. Therefore you will need to purchase some adhesive/ adhesive sticker tape to properly reinstall the home button. I suspect that some of the negative reviews citing the home button moving or floating skipped this step.

Well...after spending an hour replacing the glass (which wasn’t too difficult, just tedious), the new glass cracked on the bottom corner and later there is a crack down the middle So much for shatter proof. The adhesive isn’t super sticky so there are gaps on one side prompting me to purchase a new iPad case to hold it together. It arrives via Amazon on Friday. Upside: the main screen works...except for the area around the camera lens. I suppose this is improvement from its prior condition. Bad news: see above.

Excellent works without problems

We got this screen in this morning and had my husband put it on. You need two people to do this and a lot of patients. Had to watch a video to know how to Remove and put on. The tools it’s comes with work well but I would suggest a razor knife or pocket knife to get cracked screen off. It went on well and is working. Took us about hour and half to do it. The tape stuck well for us.

Worked perfect for Model A1822. Easy to install and tools were super helpful. Will buy again for sure!

Perfect fit with all the essentials needed for the repair.

Great packing and tools. No instructions but easy to find. Be careful they break easily while installing

I bought a used/broken Ipad 2017 from a used marketplace with shattered screen. I bought this screen to replace that shattered screen. It fits nicely and the screen feels firm. I have started using a little gorilla glue cleargrip when I replace screens on my devices because many preapplied adhesives seem to separate over time. .

Gets the job done!

I thought is going with the home button but not
