Common iPad Repair Services

• Battery and Power Problems

The average lifespan of an iPad battery is 3 to 4 years and instead of going dead all at once, it declines in its ability to hold a charge. There are various apps that can help you determine the health of your iPad battery. Sometimes an iPad just doesn’t switch on but this doesn’t necessarily mean that there’s an issue with the battery. There can be other possibilities such as a damaged charging port, malfunctioning logic board, damaged display, or just accidentally having the hold switch on. This means that a different iPad repair will be needed. You can find lots of tips online that show you how to troubleshoot your iPad but if you want to avoid further damage and voiding your warranty, take your tablet to a trusted, professional repair service provider.

The iPad battery was designed to maintain 80% of its capacity after 500 charges and this implies that you should start considering your options if yours falls short of that. Instead of putting up with the inconvenience of having to carry other devices that help your iPad stay charged or chucking for a new, more expensive iPad, it’s in your best interest to have your battery professionally replaced and you can trust the experts at Group Micro to help you with that.
