Is your iPad not working the way you’re used to, but you don’t know what’s causing it? Drop by for a free iPad diagnosis. Our specialists usually tell you within 30 minutes what is going on, often sooner. You hear right away what a repair costs and whether it is worth it. Honest advice, no strings attached: you decide afterwards whether we repair it. And if you choose to repair, no cure, no pay applies.

The different iPad models

Apple iPad Standard

The standard iPad is the all-rounder for home, school and on the go, like the iPad 6 (2018) or the iPad 10 (2022). Does it no longer charge, does the screen not respond or does it keep shutting down? Our specialists find out for free what is going on.

Apple iPad Pro Series

The iPad Pro is made for top performance, like the iPad Pro 11-inch (2018) or the 13-inch (2024). Is your iPad Pro doing something you can’t explain? After the diagnosis you hear which repair is needed and which parts are available for your model.


Book a free diagnosis

Apple iPad Air Series

The iPad Air is light, fast and powerful. Popular models are the iPad Air 3 (2019) and Air 5 (2022). With an iPad Air, too, we find out for free what is wrong, and you hear beforehand what a repair costs.


Book a free diagnosis

Apple iPad mini Series

The iPad mini is compact, light and ideal on the go, like the iPad mini 6 (2021). Because of its size it often goes everywhere with you and gets dropped more easily. Not sure whether something broke after a fall? Have it checked for free.

When is an iPad diagnosis a smart move?

A diagnosis is the quickest way to an answer when your iPad does something you can’t explain. For example:

  • Your iPad does nothing at all or no longer starts up
  • The screen doesn’t respond to touch or stays black, even though your iPad is on
  • Your iPad doesn’t charge, or charges poorly
  • Your iPad shuts down, restarts by itself, is slow or gets hot
  • The sound, the camera or your keyboard isn’t working properly
  • Your iPad has been dropped or got wet and has been acting strangely since

Genuine Apple parts or high quality cheaper options

Does the diagnosis show that a part needs replacing? ThePhoneLab is certified by Apple as an Independent Repair Provider. This gives you a choice of parts for many iPad models, tailored to your use and budget.

  • Genuine Apple parts: identical to the parts your iPad came with when new and, where possible, keeping the manufacturer’s warranty.
  • Reliable own-brand parts of high quality, carefully selected by ThePhoneLab. An excellent choice if you want to save costs without compromising on reliability.

Genuine parts are only an option for newer models. For older models, Apple does not yet supply parts. For these, we use reliable own-brand parts. After the diagnosis, our specialists tell you which options there are for your iPad.

That way you are assured of lasting service, long after your repair.
