iPad Repairs Found to be Difficult: iPad Mini 4 Review

The difficulty of Apple’s new iPad repairs has been put to the test by iFixit.

iFixit is an online community that connects users and experts of tech products. In order to find out how best to repair new products on the market, iFixit take apart new gadgets.

Upon taking apart each new model of Apple’s iPad, iFixit have found that iPad repairs are difficult in comparison to other products.

Tests find that iPad repairs are especially challenging.

Apple’s 2015 release of the iPad Mini 4 has shown that the new iPad repairs are going to be just as difficult as the earlier model, iPad Air 2.

The new iPad Mini 4 has also been shown to have an even smaller battery than the iPad Mini 3 as well as the iPad Air 2.

iFixit also notes that while the battery is small, it isn’t fused to the system board. This makes iPad repairs slightly easier, as it makes the iPad a little easier to take apart.

 This seems to be the only improvement in Apple’s iPad in terms of fixability, however, with iFixit rating it only a 2/10 reparability score. This marks the iPad Mini 4 down the same as the most recent iPad Air.

The reparability rate of the Apple iPad remains low at 2/10.

Negative Reviews of the iPad Mini 4

 Some reviews comment on the price as being too expensive. In particular, the iPad mini 4 is a lot more expensive than other tablets its size that are available.

Also, some reviews mark the smaller screen down as a drawback, rather than a plus.

Due to its high price, some reviewers suggest that the iPad Air may be the better Apple iPad purchase, due to its larger size.

Where a smaller screen size may be a benefit to some, it could be a drawback for others.

Some users are not likely to need or want a smaller screen size, due to the prevalence of smartphones. Smartphone screens seem to get bigger every year, perhaps rendering the iPad Mini obsolete.

Also, the continuous difficulty of the Apple iPad repair may be a concern to some. It may be that there are better – and cheaper – tablet products on the market.

iPad Repair: iFixit rates new iPad Reparability

With every new technological product released, iFixit take the product and evaluate how easy it will be to repair.

Their findings on 2015’s iPad Mini 4 are particularly interesting.

iFixit have found that a major problem with Apple’s iPad products is the lack of ease that comes with any iPad repair.

They report that despite improvements made in terms of processing, retina display, and external design, it remains difficult to perform any iPad repair.

This extends to all previous and current models, including the new iPad Mini 4.

Issues iFixit cited as making iPad repair difficult include:

• Fused display increases the price of repairing a broken screen
• Possible damage to the Touch ID sensor when breaking open the devide to repair it
• Lightning connector fused to the system board
• Too much adhesive, which increases the difficulty of repairs as everything is stuck together

The new iPad Mini 4 has also been shown to have an even smaller battery than the iPad Mini 3 as well as the iPad Air 2.

iFixit also notes that while the battery is small, it isn’t fused to the system board. This makes the iPad repair slightly easier, as it makes the iPad a little easier to take apart.

Despite this, iFixit rated the iPad mini 4 relatively low in reparability, at a mere two out of ten.

A lot of the ways in which the iPad is designed seems to increase the difficulty and cost of iPad repair. Excessive amounts of adhesive can make singular parts of the iPad hard to repair. Also, the fused display feature means that repairers are more likely to damage the Touch ID sensor when they have to open the iPad to repair it. This will increase repairs needed and incur the user further cost.

Due to the difficulty of iPad repair, costs will be high to repair iPads. Users are recommended to be careful when using their product so as to minimize repair costs.
