Expert iPad Charging Port Repair for 6th to 9th Generation
Is your iPad failing to charge, or do you have to wiggle the cable to get a connection? At Atlantis, we provide professional iPad charging socket repair for the 6th, 7th, 8th, and 9th Generation models. These specific iPads are notoriously difficult because the charging port is soldered directly to the logic board. Many repair shops avoid this, but our senior engineers specialize in this high-level micro-soldering. For a fixed fee of £80.00, we remove the old, worn connector and fuse a brand-new, high-grade Lightning port to your board. Whether you visit our Canterbury repair shop or use our nationwide postal service, we ensure your iPad repair is handled with surgical precision to Apple's power standards.

Technical Details
The iPad 6th-9th Gen Lightning connector uses a dual-row 24-pin soldering array. These pins are microscopic and require precise thermal profiles to avoid damage to the surrounding logic board components. We use a high-quality leaded solder for the repair because it is more flexible than factory lead-free solder, making the new port more resistant to physical stress and wiggling.
