An iPad Pro 11 inch screen replacement starts at $180 at Gadget Medics in Boca Raton — same-day turnaround on most repairs. The display is a fully laminated assembly, so glass, digitizer, and LCD come out as one unit. Most jobs are done in 1–3 hours, and you leave with a screen that looks and responds exactly like the original.
What Actually Breaks on an iPad Pro 11 Screen?
The iPad Pro 11 uses a fully laminated ProMotion display — glass, digitizer, and LCD are bonded into one assembly. Drop it and the damage usually runs deeper than the crack on the surface suggests.
Here’s what we see most often in the shop:
- Cracked outer glass with touch still working
- Shattered glass with dead touch zones
- LCD damage — dark spots, lines, or a completely black screen
- Digitizer failure — screen won’t respond to touch at all
- Backlight damage from a hard corner impact
Because the layers are laminated, a crack that looks minor can still damage the digitizer underneath. If touch is glitchy or the display has any discoloration, the full assembly needs to be replaced.
iPad Pro 11 Inch Screen Replacement Cost
Pricing depends on the generation and the extent of the damage. LCD damage costs more than glass-only because the full display assembly is pricier. Here’s what iPad Pro 11 screen replacements run at Gadget Medics:
| Device | Screen Replacement | Turnaround |
|---|---|---|
| iPad Pro 11″ (1st–2nd Gen) | Starting at $180 | Same day |
| iPad Pro 11″ (3rd–4th Gen) | Starting at $200 | Same day |
| iPad 10 (2022) | Starting at $180 | Same day |
| Diagnostic fee | Starting at $55 | Applied toward repair |
The diagnostic fee is always credited toward your repair — you never pay it separately if you move forward. Broken Club members have the diagnostic fee waived entirely, plus priority service on every visit.

Should You Repair or Replace Your iPad Pro 11?
Repair makes sense when the rest of the device works. If the iPad powers on, holds a charge, and the damage is limited to the display, a screen replacement is almost always the better financial call.
A new iPad Pro 11 starts at $799. A screen replacement starts at $180. Even on older models, repair wins — unless there’s major internal damage on top of the broken screen.
Replace instead of repair if:
- The iPad won’t power on and water damage is involved
- The logic board is damaged from a severe impact
- You’re on a 4+ year old model and the battery is also failing
- Repair cost exceeds 60–70% of the device’s current market value
Not sure which situation you’re in? We run a quick diagnostic before quoting anything — and that fee applies toward your repair if you move forward. See our diagnostic policy for the full breakdown.

DIY vs. Professional iPad Pro 11 Screen Replacement
The iPad Pro 11 is not a beginner repair. The laminated display requires a heat mat, suction cups, and careful prying to separate without cracking the new glass. One wrong move and you’ve damaged a $100+ part before it’s even installed.

What to Expect During an iPad Pro 11 Screen Replacement
Here’s exactly how the repair goes from the moment you walk into our Boca Raton shop:
Step 1: Quick Diagnostic
We check touch response, Face ID, Apple Pencil pairing, and camera function before touching anything. This takes under 10 minutes and confirms the screen is the only issue — or flags anything else you should know about.
Step 2: Display Removal
We use a heat mat to soften the adhesive around the display perimeter, then carefully lift the glass with suction cups and plastic pry tools. The Face ID and front camera flex cables are disconnected first to avoid any damage.
Step 3: New Screen Installation
The replacement display assembly is seated, all connectors are reattached, and the adhesive is reset. We test touch, brightness, and Face ID before closing the device.
Step 4: Final QC Check
We run through every function — touch, Face ID, Apple Pencil, front camera, and display uniformity. You get the iPad back only when everything passes. Most iPad Pro 11 screen replacements are done in 1–3 hours.
Walk in with a cracked iPad Pro 11 screen in the morning — walk out with a factory-fresh display the same afternoon.
Walk-ins are welcome at our Boca Raton location — no appointment needed for most screen repairs. We serve customers across zip code 33498 and the surrounding South Florida area. You can also check out our full tablet repair service page for everything we cover.
Risks of Leaving a Cracked iPad Pro 11 Screen Unrepaired
A cracked screen isn’t just cosmetic. The iPad Pro 11 has an IP rating, but that seal breaks the moment the glass cracks. Moisture, dust, and debris can reach the logic board through the gap.
Touch accuracy also degrades over time on a cracked digitizer. What starts as one dead zone spreads. We’ve seen iPads come in where the owner waited three months — and what would have been a $180 screen job turned into a $350+ repair because liquid got inside.
Fix it early. The repair is faster, cheaper, and cleaner when the damage is fresh.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does an iPad Pro 11 inch screen replacement cost?
At Gadget Medics in Boca Raton, iPad Pro 11 screen replacement starts at $180 for 1st and 2nd generation models, and starting at $200 for 3rd and 4th generation. A diagnostic fee starting at $55 applies, but it’s credited toward the repair — so you’re not paying it on top of the repair price.
Will Face ID still work after an iPad Pro 11 screen replacement?
Yes — as long as the Face ID flex cable isn’t damaged during disassembly. We disconnect that cable first and take extra care around it. If Face ID was working before the repair, it will work after. We test it before handing the device back.
How long does an iPad Pro 11 screen replacement take?
Most iPad Pro 11 screen replacements take 1–3 hours. We offer same-day service on most repairs. Bring it in during the morning and you’ll typically have it back the same afternoon. Walk-ins are welcome — no appointment needed.
Does Apple Pencil still work after a third-party screen replacement?
It depends on the quality of the replacement display. We use OEM-quality parts that maintain Apple Pencil compatibility. Cheap aftermarket screens often lose Pencil sensitivity or accuracy. We test Pencil pairing and response as part of our final quality check.
Is it worth repairing an older iPad Pro 11?
Usually yes, if the device is otherwise working. A screen replacement starting at $180 is a fraction of the $799+ cost of a new iPad Pro. If the battery is also weak, combining both repairs in one visit is the most cost-effective option — we assess both during the diagnostic.
Can I use my iPad Pro 11 with a cracked screen while I wait for repair?
Short-term, yes — but it’s risky. A cracked screen breaks the IP seal, letting moisture and dust reach the internals. Touch accuracy also degrades over time. The longer you wait, the higher the chance of secondary damage that makes the repair more expensive.
Do you offer a warranty on iPad screen replacements?
Yes. Every screen replacement at Gadget Medics comes with a 90-day warranty on parts and labor. Broken Club members get additional coverage and have the diagnostic fee waived on every future visit. See our warranty policy for full details.
