Frequently asked questions
Is this the same part for the iPad 5 and iPad 6?
Yes. Both models, and the first iPad Air, share this Lightning dock connector flex.
Will it fit the iPad Air 3 or iPad Air 4?
No. The iPad Air 3 uses a different flex and the iPad Air 4 has a USB-C port.
Can a DIY repairer fit this?
Professional installation is recommended. Screens and small parts are delicate, so we recommend having this part fitted by a qualified repair technician. Damage caused during fitting is not a product fault.
How quickly will my order arrive?
Orders placed before 4pm, Monday to Friday, are dispatched the same day from our Manchester warehouse, so most UK customers receive their part within a day or two.
