iPad Pro 13-inch M4 RepairJohannesburg & Gauteng
📱 2024 · Apple M4 · Thunderbolt 4 / USB 4 · Face IDSpecialist repair for the iPad Pro 13-inch M4 across Gauteng. First 13-inch iPad Pro with OLED. Also renamed from 12.9 to 13-inch with this generation. Thinnest iPad ever. M4 chip with Neural Engine. Free diagnostic. Written quote before any work begins. 6-month warranty on all repairs.
The M4 13-inch Pro is the largest OLED iPad Apple has released, using the same Tandem OLED technology as the 11-inch M4 but scaled up across a bigger panel. The larger the OLED sheet, the more expensive and delicate the part — full assembly replacement on this model uses premium panel stock, so we always assess whether a glass-only refurb can save the original OLED underneath before quoting a full swap.

Frequently asked questions — iPad Pro 13-inch M4
How do I identify my iPad Pro 13-inch M4?
The model number is printed in small text on the back of the device. The iPad Pro 13-inch M4 uses model numbers A2925 / A2926 / A3007 (check back of device). 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 Pro 13-inch M4 display laminated?
Fully laminated — the glass is fused directly to the OLED panel. Glass-only refurbishment is still available using our OCA lamination machine — we separate the broken glass and re-laminate new OEM-grade glass onto the original Apple OLED panel. Full assembly replacement is also available for 24-48 hour turnaround.
Can I get a glass-only repair on the iPad Pro 13-inch M4?
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 OLED 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 OLED panel is never at risk. Takes 3-5 days for the adhesive to cure properly.
Does the iPad Pro 13-inch M4 support Apple Pencil?
Yes — iPad Pro 13-inch M4 supports Apple Pencil Pro. 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 Pro 13-inch M4?
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 Pro 13-inch M4 have Face ID?
Yes — Face ID via a TrueDepth camera embedded in the display assembly, working in portrait and landscape. We carefully preserve the TrueDepth sensor during screen replacement. If the sensor itself is damaged, we give an honest assessment before any work begins.
What charging port does the iPad Pro 13-inch M4 use, and is it repairable?
The iPad Pro 13-inch M4 uses a Thunderbolt 4 / USB 4 port. It sits on a modular daughterboard — direct swap for R2,500 with no micro-soldering. Fast and lower risk than soldered repairs.
How long does iPad Pro 13-inch M4 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. Modular port swaps are often completed same-day. Logic board and liquid damage repairs take 2-4 business days. All turnaround times confirmed at booking.
Is it worth repairing my iPad Pro 13-inch M4?
In most cases yes. The iPad Pro 13-inch M4 (2024) uses the Apple M4 — a very capable current-generation chip. Battery replacement at WhatsApp 078 742 4769 for latest price 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.
Do you offer collection and delivery for iPad repairs?
Yes — door-to-door collection and return across Gauteng for R300 via Eliz Courier, fully insured. Outside Gauteng we use The Courier Guy for insured nationwide shipping. WhatsApp 078 742 4769 to arrange.
