RepairPartsPlus for iPad 7th Gen | 8th Screen Replacement Glass Touch Digitizer Premium Kit (10.2, 7 | 8, A2197 A2198 A2200 A2270 A2428 A2429 A2430) + Home Button, Adhesive - Black

There are dead zones in the replacement. I have to now use a mouse to be able to properly click on the dead zones in the screen. I would not recommend buying from them.

It works as advertised. The tools that were included worked well. The digitizer feels thicker than the original screen on the iPad 7th gen model. My only complaint is that the adhesive isnt as strong as I would like, but that is all the reviews Ive looked at.

Update: 8/30/22 Seller contacted me and send a replacement screen which arrived quick, I waited to do update to see if this screen replacement on 7 gen iPad was going to work properly after at least a week of use and it is doing great. Easy installation and it is working perfect, no issues so far and installation was a breeze. Just make sure you get your own adhesive tube to get screen to adhiere properly. Installation is a plus; Easy installation after carefully removing all broken glass pieces from original screen and cleaning shell, it worked really good and looked wonderful. 2 days later: screen lagging, touch response is annoying and slow, adhesion is not holding. Disappointed after what I thought was a success this screen is just not working for me. Tools were good and like I said it seemed great at first but TWo days after installation screen is acting up!

It Cracked Within A Second I Put It On... A Fail For 70$. Yes Shipping Was Quick But The Screen Is TOO THIN TO CRACK THAT QUICK...

Great screen. adheres well, and fits perfect

One side of my screen keeps popping up, allowing dust to get in. I feel that (certain type of) glue would work better the supplied tape.

The kit included all the tools needed, but the instructions were inadequate. The paper instructions contain important recommendations (especially about the care needed to remove the home button), but lacked the details needed to complete the repair. To compensate, they included a card that directs you to their website to find links to YouTube installation guides. There I was directed to three guide videos. I chose the first one listed. Big mistake. From almost start, my experience differed from the video. My screen didn’t simply lift off in one piece, it cracked into small pieces along the edges and in each corner as I tried the insert the wedge. These pieces stuck to the frame, and more importantly, to the ribbon connectors attached to the screen…and particularly all around the home button assembly. In the process of trying to remove the pieces, the button separated from its support frame and one of the tiny black support pads peeled off the frame, remained stuck to the collection of black glass shards and adhesive, and was lost. My home button now does not work properly. I recommend you read the installation hints in the box and watch ALL three of the YouTube videos. I learned a lot thru trial and error and actually think I could now do this repair perfectly. I bought this $65 kit because I was worried that, despite their favorite ratings, the <$30 ones would be inferior quality. But, now that I may damage the new screen when I remove it to install a new home button, I’m buying one of the less expensive kits as a backup,

Had a problem with the initial digitizer and had ghosting on the screen. I contacted the seller and they sent a replacement screen. The new screen worked and I’m glad I didn’t have to fight or argue with the seller. They came through in a pinch and helped me out. Thanks for providing good customer service.

Husband replaced screen himself and it’s perfect no problems

I am a retired IT pro of many decades and have repaired laptop and cell phone screens in the past so thought this would be a cakewalk. Not so. Its a very laborious, fine detail-oriented process that is not guaranteed to work. I was VERY careful to follow the instructions to the T, however after about 4 hours of putzing with the connectors and testing I could not get the screen to properly calibrate. The problem seems to be with the press-on connectors that take the signal from screen to processor. Its very hard to tell if they are seated properly, and to keep them seated during re-assembly. This may be an issue with every one of these kits, or at least for people that dont do it regularly. After that much time I decided it was worth it to just toss the old one and buy a good used one from Gazelle. It was worth the cost to give it a try but just be forewarned.
