Best wholesale supplier for iPad mini LCD panels?
Hey everyone, I'm looking for recommendations on the best wholesale suppliers for iPad mini LCD panels. My shop does quite a bit of tablet repairs, and I'm finding that sourcing quality LCDs has been a bit of a hassle lately. I've tried a few vendors, but the pricing has been all over the place, and the quality has been inconsistent. If you have any go-to suppliers that you trust for both price and quality, I'd love to hear about them. Also, how is their RMA process? I want to make sure that if I get a dud, I can easily return it without too much hassle. Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi! I've had great luck with a supplier called ScreenTech. Their iPad mini LCD panels are competitively priced, around $45 each if you buy in bulk, and the quality has been consistently good. I've only had to return a couple due to defects, and their RMA process was straightforward—just fill out a form and send the panel back. It usually takes about a week to get replacements. I've been using their services for over a year now, and I appreciate their timely customer support as well. Also, I pair my orders with an inventory management software that helps track my parts, which saves me a lot of time and ensures I don't over-order. Hope this helps!
I understand the struggle! I usually get my iPad mini LCDs from PartSource. Their pricing is around $50-55 per panel, but I've found that the quality is hit or miss. I've had a few panels that were perfect, but there were also some that had dead pixels. They do have a decent RMA process, but I've had to follow up a few times to get my replacements. I recommend ordering a few from different suppliers to see who meets your quality standards best. Good luck!
