📱 2025 · Apple A16 Bionic · USB-C (soldered) · Top button Touch ID

Specialist repair for the iPad 11th gen (2025) across Gauteng. A16 Bionic chip. 128GB base storage. First standard iPad with Apple Pencil Pro support. Same design as 10th gen. Released March 2025. Free diagnostic. Written quote before any work begins. 6-month warranty on all repairs.

The 11th generation iPad brought the A16 chip, doubled base storage to 128GB, and added landscape Center Stage camera support alongside Apple Intelligence compatibility. As the newest standard iPad in our workshop, and still under a year old for most units, the large majority of what we see on this model is fresh accidental screen damage rather than anything related to component wear.

Frequently asked questions — iPad 11th gen (2025)

How do I identify my iPad 11th gen (2025)?

The model number is printed in small text on the back of the device. The iPad 11th gen (2025) uses model numbers A3354 / A3355 / A3356. Go to Settings — General — About — Model Number. Tapping the model number toggles between the marketing name and the technical identifier. Having your model number ready means we can give you an accurate quote immediately.

Is the iPad 11th gen (2025) display laminated?

Non-laminated — the glass sits separately over the LCD panel, which means glass-only refurbishment is straightforward using our OCA lamination machine. The original Apple LCD stays intact.

Can I get a glass-only repair on the iPad 11th gen (2025)?

Yes. iAssist has a professional OCA lamination machine and bubble removal machine. We remove the broken glass and fit new OEM-grade glass, keeping your original Apple LCD panel intact. If the touch layer has also been damaged, touch replacement is available separately at a higher price but still preserves your original display. Important: very badly shattered glass can sometimes damage the touch during removal — we assess after glass removal and advise you before any extra work. Your LCD panel is never at risk. Takes 3-5 days for the adhesive to cure properly.

Does the iPad 11th gen (2025) support Apple Pencil?

Yes — iPad 11th gen (2025) supports Apple Pencil Pro · Apple Pencil USB-C. We use OEM-specification digitizer glass for all screen repairs to ensure full Pencil compatibility is preserved — pressure sensitivity, tilt, palm rejection, and hover where supported.

Where is Touch ID on the iPad 11th gen (2025)?

In the top/side power button — no Home button on this model. A failed side button affects both power control and fingerprint authentication. Replacement restores both functions.

Does the iPad 11th gen (2025) have Face ID?

No — iPad 11th gen (2025) uses Top button Touch ID. Face ID was not available on this model.

What charging port does the iPad 11th gen (2025) use, and is it repairable?

The iPad 11th gen (2025) uses a USB-C (soldered) port. The port is soldered to the logic board. Micro-soldering repairs damaged pins or replaces the full port socket — data is preserved and no board replacement needed. Typical cost: R1,000 – R1,500 (micro-soldering).

How long does iPad 11th gen (2025) repair take at iAssist?

Screen and battery replacements are typically done within 24-48 hours. Glass-only refurbishment takes 3-5 days for the OCA adhesive to cure. Port micro-soldering takes 24-48 hours. Logic board and liquid damage repairs take 2-4 business days. All turnaround times confirmed at booking.

Is it worth repairing my iPad 11th gen (2025)?

In most cases yes. The iPad 11th gen (2025) (2025) uses the Apple A16 Bionic — a very capable current-generation chip. Battery replacement at Assessment + quote and screen repairs cost a fraction of a new device. For complex logic board faults we give an honest free diagnostic assessment before recommending any repair — we only suggest repair when it genuinely makes financial sense.
