5 Signs Your Device Needs This Repair

- •Apple Pencil Pro strokes skipping, lagging, or drawing jagged lines across the screen

How Our Technicians Complete Your Repair
Controlled Thermal Separation
We heat the tablet perimeter on a precision digital plate at 65C to soften the industrial factory adhesive without damaging the M2 logic board.
Chassis Corner Reshaping & True-truing
If the aluminum chassis dropped on its corner, our technicians use specialized dental-grade milling tools to re-true the bezel so the new screen seats flush.
Factory Laminated Assembly Seating
We install a brand new Liquid Retina assembly with high-tack structural adhesive and connect high-speed display bus ribbons.
Pencil Pro Stylus & Multi-Touch Calibration
We run diagnostic routines verifying 10-point simultaneous touch tracking, Apple Pencil Pro tilt/hover, and True Tone sensor communication.
