Front Glass Only Compatible For iPad Pro 11" 1st Gen (2018) (All Colors) (Glass Separation Required)

Product Details

The Front Glass Only replacement for the iPad Pro 11" 1st Gen (2018) (all colors) requires glass separation, meaning you will only be replacing the outer glass, not the entire digitizer or LCD assembly. This type of repair is more labor-intensive, as the glass is fused to the digitizer and LCD, and separating them requires specialized tools and careful handling.

Key Features:

• Front Glass Replacement: This part is just the outer layer of glass and does not include the digitizer or LCD. It is designed to fix issues like cracks or scratches on the surface of the screen while keeping the underlying touch functionality intact.
• Glass Separation Required: You will need to separate the cracked or broken glass from the digitizer and LCD assembly, which requires a heat source to soften the adhesive that binds them together.
• Compatibility: The glass is specifically compatible with the iPad Pro 11" 1st Gen (2018) and is available in all colors, so it will match the original color scheme of your device.

Why Choose a Glass-Only Replacement?

• Cost-Effective: Replacing only the front glass is a more affordable option than replacing the entire screen assembly (LCD + digitizer). This is ideal if your LCD and touch functions are still working perfectly and you only need to fix cosmetic damage.
• Restores Original Appearance: It restores the look of the iPad without the need for a full screen replacement, making it a cost-effective and less wasteful option.

Tools and Process:

• Heat Gun or Separator Machine: You’ll need to gently heat the edges of the screen to loosen the adhesive without overheating the LCD or digitizer underneath.
• Pry Tools and Suction Cup: Carefully pry the glass off once the adhesive is softened. A suction cup can help lift the glass without putting too much pressure on the screen.
• Adhesive Strips: New adhesive strips will be required to securely reattach the new glass to the digitizer and frame.

Installation Difficulty:

This repair is complex and delicate. Mistakes during the glass separation process can damage the digitizer or LCD, resulting in additional costs to replace those parts. If you're not familiar with this type of repair, it's advisable to seek professional help.
