Zentop for Black IPad Air 1st Generation Touch Screen Digitizer Glass Replacement Modle A1474 A1475 A1476 with Home Button,Camera Holder,Preinstalled Adhesive,Toolkit.

Item arrived on time. This is the third ipad I have done this replacement so no stranger to the process. The screen fit great, however it came with no adhesive. Most of the original adhesive was still on the ipad side so I just heated it up and pressed the new screen into place. My real disappointment came with the manner that they secured the cables. They F*@%**! taped them to the back of the screen about an inch out. Even after cleaning, the area that was taped still shows up in the screen! WTF! Its like the adhesive etch the screen. You can only rub/clean so hard before you scratch it . . . So one star for the adhesive and one star for the tape.

The plastic glass cracks easily. First crack happened at the final stage of installation applying pressure to get the adhesive to hold. Now, after six months, its more cracked than the original was but still working with the help of clear packaging tape holding it together.

I purchased this for my iPad Air which had a completely shattered screen. While the removal of the old screen took forever and was a very tedious process, the installation of this screen went very smoothly. The only tool you will need that isnt provided is a heat gun. I do not own one so I just used my wifes hairdryer which worked okay. The only improvement I would recommend is that links to videos/instructions be provided. I was a little worried the adhesion wouldnt work very well, though I have not had any issues thus far (currently 3 days in). I only use this iPad for my kids to watch movies on during road trips so it was nice to save myself a few hundred $$ by purchasing this versus an entirely new ipad. It was also nice that with this product a lot of the preliminary work is done for you such as the installation of the home button and the camera holder. I accidentally cut through the wire for the home button when removing the old screen so it was nice to have a new one already preinstalled on this new screen. Highly recommend, provided you are good at working with your hands.

This is not a product I recommend. Spend the money and go through Apple. The digitizer connectors actually broke apart leaving the pieces stuck to the iPad and the connection wires detached due to cheap adhesion while we were trying to put it together thus damaging the iPad leading us to have to purchase an entirely new iPad. I would not recommend this product.

It was perfect, Ipad has a new screen now!

Its great to have my iPad back! My daughter dropped it and the digitizer shattered. Thankfully this fixed it right up. It is working perfectly now. I literally got it today and fixed it in under two hours.

The glass was cracked on my iPad Air. I am an electronics hobbyist, so felt up to the repair task. Removal of the original screen was somewhat difficult. In retrospect, I would say not to worry about damaging the iPad; just use a heat gun around the outside frame of the iPad and pull the screen off as best you can. Definitely put packing tape on the screen if the glass is shattered. Go ahead and cut the ribbon cables. Once all the thick adhesive is off the frame, the installation of the glass is pretty easy. All back together, but wait, the screen is not working properly, multiple applications are launching by themselves, and the iPad is even making random Ooma telephone calls. I know I didnt damage anything, so I called Amazon and they immediately sent out a replacement. Installing the replacement took only about 15 minutes. I was able to get the old (new) screen off pretty easily compared to the OEM screen. The iPad works fine now. I am happy with this product.

The touchscreen feels identical to that of the original. I appreciate the fact that there’s no need for additional adhesive. It also comes with a functional home button.

Great product

I was a little concerned watching the video, wondering if I would actually be able to make this work. The installation went well. The pre-installed adhesive tape worked well. I wish there were a little more instructions included, but all in all, it went well. I was not going to pay a lot to fix an old iPad and this solved my problem. I’m very happy with the outcome.
