Screen Repair (Glass Only)

A cracked glass panel on the iPad 4 is a straightforward repair when the Retina display underneath is still functioning properly. For $90, we carefully remove every piece of broken glass and install a new digitizer that restores smooth, responsive touch input. It's the most affordable way to make your iPad 4 usable and safe to handle again.

Complete Display Replacement

When both the glass and the Retina LCD on your iPad 4 are damaged — visible as dead zones, white spots, or a completely unresponsive screen — our $150 full replacement is the right repair. We install a complete digitizer and LCD assembly to bring back the sharp, vibrant display the iPad 4 is known for. Every replacement is tested for uniform brightness and accurate touch response.

Battery Replacement

The iPad 4's battery has had over a decade of use, and even if the device has been sitting in a drawer, lithium-ion cells degrade with age. Our $120 battery replacement is what most iPad 4 owners need to bring their tablet back from the dead. A new battery often makes the difference between a paperweight and a perfectly usable device for reading, browsing, and video.

Charging Port Repair

As the first iPad with Lightning, the iPad 4's port design was robust for its era, but over a decade of use takes a toll on any connector. If your iPad 4 won't charge or only charges intermittently, a port replacement resolves the issue permanently. We install a new Lightning assembly and verify solid connectivity with multiple cables and chargers.

Software / Diagnostics

The iPad 4 maxes out at iOS 10, which means it can't run the latest apps — but it still works well for web browsing, email, video streaming, and e-reading. MackTechs can resolve software problems like boot loops, frozen screens, and sluggish performance through system restores and storage optimization. We diagnose every issue for free before recommending a repair path.
