In the event of battery damage, Apple will immediately replace the entire device.

As a reason, Apple gives that the user cannot get to the battery at all.

IIPad owners must also expect that existing data will be lost.

Therefore, data backup is the first priority when the device has to be sent in.

To exchange the device, however, a fee of $ 99 plus $ 6,95 for shipping must be paid.
