    Just got mine in the mail today. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxhcEDB3r-OJ3_X5hQzr7k1ZofTQy1ao_U The corners of the box was a little smashed but I think that’s more of the shipping’s fault. iPad was in perfect condition though. I ordered the yellow one thinking it was going to be a bright vibrant color. Instead I looks like more of a Gold color. I personally prefer the gold look. Definitely not disappointed but just a heads up to the ones expecting a brighter cream of yellow.

    @Hugh Please use Tesa/Red tape or even T8000. I've said this countless times - it will improve the quality of your repairs greatly and stop them from becoming unstuck in the future. I use to use that 3M tape you're using and that stuff is awful. The adhesive which is on the digitizer too is also awful - you want to try and buy them with the Tesa tape pre-installed. I hope you see this. Anyway, great video, keep up the good work.

    Today I opened up my sisters laptop to replace the hdd with an ssd and discovered that it's missing an entire SODIMM ram stick and a lot of screws. My sister evidently took it to a local repair shop to fix the screen but the guy obviously did a lot more than that and she has been using it for over 4 months complaining its slow(she's not a tech geek). So guys please please please do not take your devices to unauthorized repair shops. Thanks for pointing this out Hugh.

By the time i got home and turned them on they were icloud locked and i could not get a refund from the pawnshop for false information. I decided to keep them and ask you @Hugh_Jeffreys what i could possibly do to fix them. Could i just replace the logic boards in them with ones that are not Icloud locked?

    Very good video, but fused glass display assemblies usually are much easier to repair than separate display and digitizer iPad models since you do not have to worry about dust between the screen and a Xacto knife with #17 blade works much better at cleaning up old adhesive on the metal rails of iPads. Also, Tesa adhesive tape is the same adhesive that OEM's use to seal their devices and NEVER spray any liquid directly on a liquid crystal display, only on a cloth that you are cleaning it with.
