The other day I noticed a crack running across the screen and I've no idea how it got there which is even more annoying. Apple want £374 to replace it and online places want between £200-400 to change it. I've not had any local quotes so far however I've found a screen on eBay for £75 and I do have the iFixit kit to do it myself, although having never tried I'm reluctant as I think the glue side of things will be quite tricky.
The other problem is that I've wanted a larger screen for a while since I use the iPad mainly for watching videos and Apple have of course just released the gorgeous looking HDR version.
Apple trade in with an damaged screen is a laughable £115. Music Magpie isn't any better however they do offer £370 I think it was for a fully repaired one.
My thinking is either:
Bit the bullet and trade it in to Apple as is
Or get it repaired as cheaply as possible and then sell it to Music Magpie.
I guess another option is to get it repaired properly and keep it, it's been great and apart from wanting (not needing) a bigger screen I'm more than happy with it.
Thoughts?
