About the iPad 5th Gen
The iPad 5th Gen (A1822, A1823) was released in 2017 as the affordable iPad that brought Touch ID to the standard lineup. It features an 9.7-inch 2048x1536 Retina display powered by the Apple A9 chip. Released as a budget-friendly option, it packed the same A9 chip found in the iPhone 6S and was the first standard iPad with Touch ID. We repair every component at our Perth Road workshop in Dundee.
Common iPad 5th Gen repairs include cracked screen glass, Touch ID button failure, Lightning port damage, and battery degradation. Touch ID repairs require careful handling of the home button flex cable, a damaged sensor means Touch ID stops working permanently on that device. Our technicians have over 20 years' combined experience with iPad repairs and handle everything from straightforward screen replacements to complex board-level diagnostics.
The iPad 5th Gen, a solid workhorse iPad, Touch ID and all for a fair price. If yours isnae working right, drap it in to our Perth Road workshop and we'll get it sorted. We ken whit we're daein wi' iPads.

How much does it cost to fix a cracked iPad 5th Gen screen?
The iPad 5th Gen has a non-laminated display, which means the glass digitizer and LCD are separate layers. If only the glass is cracked and the LCD underneath is fine, a glass-only repair is possible, which keeps costs down. Drap it in to our Perth Road workshop for a diagnostic and we'll give you an accurate quote.
How do I know if my iPad 5th Gen battery needs replacing?
If your iPad 5th Gen is draining faster than it used to, shutting down unexpectedly, or the back is starting to bulge slightly, the battery likely needs replacing. iPads dinnae show battery health percentage like iPhones do, but we can run a diagnostic at our Perth Road workshop to check the cycle count and capacity. Nae obligation - just drap it in.
My iPad 5th Gen won't charge properly - can you fix that?
Aye, charging issues are one of the most common iPad 5th Gen problems we see. It's usually the Lightning port getting clogged with pocket lint and dust, or the port itself wearing out from years of plugging and unplugging. Sometimes a good clean sorts it, other times the port needs replacing. Either way, bring it in and we'll have a look - we ken whit we're daein with Lightning repairs.
My iPad 5th Gen Touch ID stopped working - can you fix it?
Touch ID on the iPad 5th Gen is paired to the logic board at the factory, so the actual sensor button cannae be swapped for a new one without losing fingerprint functionality. However, if Touch ID stopped working after a drop or another issue, there might be a flex cable or connection problem we can fix. Drap it in and we'll diagnose it properly - nae charge for the honest answer.
How do I know if my iPad is an iPad 5th Gen?
The easiest way is to check the back of your iPad for the model number - it's printed in small text near the bottom. The iPad 5th Gen uses model numbers A1822, A1823. You can also go to Settings > General > About and look for the Model Number field. If you're still not sure, just bring it in to our Perth Road workshop and we'll identify it for you in seconds - nae bother.
Do you repair iPad 5th Gen models with cellular connectivity too?
Aye, absolutely. The WiFi and Cellular versions of the iPad 5th Gen share the same internal components for most repairs - screens, batteries, ports, buttons. The cellular models have an additional antenna and SIM tray, but that doesnae affect most common repairs. Just drap your iPad 5th Gen in to our Perth Road workshop and we'll sort it regardless of which variant you have.
