Want to change your iPad battery but don’t want to employ an expert? Then just do it yourself, using the helpful advice given in this video by iFixit.
OK, so it’s not real, as any fool who has actually watched the video will know. The method for opening the iPad recommended here is to smash it open. It’s a good job this was posted just in time for April Fool’s Day, eh.
This works so well because it’s partly based on truth. It is virtually impossible to get into an iPad because Apple really doesn’t want you tinkering with its products.
It doesn’t matter that you’ve purchased it yourself, as far as Apple is concerned it’s kinda just on lease to you. If it needs fixing then you’d better let a Genius at the Apple Store take care of it.
