iPad Air 3 Front Camera Replacement

iPad Air 3 Front Camera Replacement Description
The 7MP FaceTime HD front camera on the iPad Air 3 is used for FaceTime, video calls, Zoom and selfies. If it shows a black screen, looks blurry or out of focus, or the camera app switches but the front camera never comes on, the module usually needs to be replaced. The screen has to come off to reach it, so we reseal it with fresh adhesive afterwards.

Symptoms this repair should fix:

• Black screen when you switch to the front camera
• Blurry or out-of-focus video calls and selfies
• FaceTime or Zoom can't find the camera

Find Out Which iPad Model You Have

The iPad Air 3 is the iPad Air (3rd generation) (10.5-inch, 2019). It looks almost the same as the iPad Pro 10.5-inch and the 10.2-inch iPads, so check the model number before you buy a repair. The iPad Air 3 model numbers are A2152 (Wi-Fi), A2123, A2153 and A2154 (Wi-Fi + Cellular).

Option 1: Check in Settings
If your iPad still turns on and the screen works, open Settings > General > About. Next to Model Name you'll see "iPad Air (3rd generation)". Next to Model Number you'll see a part number that ends in LL/A in the US. Tap that line once and it changes to the model number that starts with A, for example A2152.

Option 2: Look on the back of your iPad
If your iPad won't turn on or the screen is too damaged to use, turn it over. Under the word "iPad" on the back there are a few lines of small print. Look for the word "Model" followed by an A and four numbers, for example Model A2152.

Text too small to read?
Open the camera on your smartphone, point it at the small print on the back of your iPad and zoom in. You can also take a photo and zoom in on the picture. Good lighting helps, so try it near a window or a lamp.
