Expert iPad 5 & Air 1 LCD Screen Repair
Is your iPad Air 1 or iPad 5 suffering from lines across the screen, black spots, or a completely blank display? These classic models are unique because the outer glass and internal LCD are two separate components. At Atlantis, we provide a specialist iPad LCD repair for a fixed price of £99.00. Our engineers replace the faulty inner display panel while preserving your original digitiser glass, provided it is not broken. Whether you visit our Canterbury iPad repair centre or use our free nationwide postal service, we provide a premium fix that meets Apple technical standards.

Questions and Answers
Can the iPad 5 internal screen be replaced independently? Yes. Because the LCD is a separate part from the glass, we can replace just the inner display panel for £99, saving you from a full display assembly cost.
Do I lose data during a screen repair? No. This is a hardware component replacement that does not affect your storage. We still recommend a backup as a standard professional precaution.

Technical Details
The iPad 5 and Air 1 utilize a non-laminated Retina display. This design allows for modular replacement of the LCD panel and the digitiser. We use high-spec panels that match the original brightness and pixel density, ensuring a perfect visual match for the 9.7-inch display. During reassembly, we ensure every internal connector is shielded and secured with fresh gaskets to prevent dust ingress between the glass layers.
