+ | [* black] Our Opening Kit ought to offer oodles of optimism to fearless fixers; [product|IF145-198-2|iOpeners] impart inroads into iPads. (Who doesn't love a little alliteration?) |
+ | [* black] We've never opened a iPad Mini with Retina Display before, but we're confident this kit is up to the challenge. |
[* black] In this teardown staredown, the Mini blinks first: after offering up the usual gluey resistance, it succumbs and releases its front panel. | |
[* black] The ridiculous amount of glue holding iPads together is no longer any surprise—but that doesn't make it okay. Glue inhibits repair, and that is bad. [http://ifixit.org/2806/unfixable-computers-are-leading-humanity-down-a-perilous-path/|Really bad]. |
