This month’s featured repair highlights one of our most dramatic transformations – an iPad Pro 12.9 6th Generation that went from completely destroyed to looking showroom-fresh in just 60 minutes. As a certified repair technician with over 15 years of experience, I can tell you that iPad Pro screen replacements are among the most challenging repairs we handle at Gizmo Pros, requiring precision, patience, and expert-level skill.
Before & After: iPad Pro 12.9 6th Gen Screen Replacement
Before: This iPad Pro 12.9 arrived in what can only be described as devastating condition. The second image shows the screen completely obliterated – a spiderweb of cracks radiating from multiple impact points that covered virtually every inch of the massive 12.9-inch display. The damage was so severe that the screen was entirely unusable, with glass fragments loose and potentially dangerous. You could barely even see what was underneath all those cracks.
After: In 60 minutes of meticulous work, our expert technicians completely transformed this $1,000+ device back to pristine condition. The first image shows the stunning result – a crystal-clear Liquid Retina XDR display showing a perfectly functioning home screen with vibrant colors, sharp text, and flawless touch responsiveness. The iPad Pro now performs exactly as Apple designed it, ready for professional work, creative projects, or entertainment.

Why iPad Pro 12.9 Repairs Are More Complex
The iPad Pro 12.9 6th Generation isn’t just a larger tablet – it’s a sophisticated piece of technology that requires specialized expertise:
Massive Display: The 12.9-inch screen is one of the largest we repair, requiring careful handling
Advanced Technology: Liquid Retina XDR with mini-LED backlighting demands precision installation
ProMotion Display: 120Hz adaptive refresh rate requires proper calibration
Apple Pencil Integration: Magnetic charging and pairing must be preserved
Premium Construction: Thin aluminum body requires delicate disassembly techniques
Multiple Adhesive Points: Extensive bonding makes removal time-consuming and risky
Unlike simpler repairs like our iPhone 14 Plus back glass replacement, which takes around 40 minutes, iPad Pro screen replacements demand extra time and care.
