Best wholesale supplier for iPad Pro 12.9 flex cables?
Hey everyone, I'm looking for recommendations on where to source flex cables for the iPad Pro 12.9. I've been using a few suppliers, but I'm not entirely satisfied with the quality and RMA process. I want to make sure I'm getting components that last, as our shop heavily relies on these repairs. Any insights or experiences you can share would be greatly appreciated. Also, if you have any tips on pricing or negotiation with these suppliers, that would be a bonus!

I highly recommend checking out iFixit for iPad Pro parts, especially the flex cables. Their quality is top-notch, and they have a solid return policy if anything goes wrong. They also offer bulk discounts, which can help reduce costs significantly. In my experience, their cables have a much lower failure rate compared to others I've tried. Plus, they have great guides if you need some extra help during repairs. Definitely worth a look!
I've been sourcing flex cables from RepairPartsPlus. They have decent pricing and reasonable quality, but I've had a few RMAs that took a bit longer than expected. If you decide to go with them, just make sure to check the parts thoroughly upon arrival. It's also helpful to keep track of your RMA process within your shop software to stay organized. Good luck!
