The iPad (10th gen) came out in 2022, with a 10.9 inch Liquid Retina LCD display and the A14 Bionic chip. It charges over USB-C and it unlocks with Touch ID in the top button. There is an aluminium frame. The first standard iPad with flat sides, USB-C and the front camera on the long edge. No home button. Ireland gets the A2696.

What this fixes
What a front camera repair actually fixes.
- Blurry or hazy selfiesOften condensation or dust behind the lens rather than a broken camera.
- Face or fingerprint unlock has stopped working tooImportant to mention. The the biometric sensor components share the assembly, and that changes the job.
- The screen stays lit against your ear on a callThe proximity sensor sits in the same assembly and is a common casualty.
- Face unlock has stopped as wellOn phones where the unlock hardware sits beside the front camera, one impact takes both. Say so, because it changes the part.
- The selfie is soft but the rear cameras are sharpConfirms the front module rather than anything shared.
- A dark ring or vignette around every selfieThe lens cover or the module seating. Both are in the display assembly on most phones.
Before you spend anything
Is it definitely the front camera?
The front camera shares its assembly with Face ID and the proximity sensor, so what else is failing tells us a lot.
IfThe camera is black but Face ID still works
That points at the camera module alone, which is the simpler and cheaper of the two jobs.
IfBoth the camera and Face ID have stopped
The whole assembly or its connector. Worth a diagnostic first, because Face ID components are paired to the phone and not every fault is fixable by swapping a part.
IfIt is hazy rather than black
Look for moisture behind the lens. If the phone has been wet this is a liquid damage assessment first.
IfFace unlock stopped at the same time
Say so at the counter. On several phones that is a different and more involved part than the camera alone.
IfOnly certain apps see it
That is permissions, not hardware, and it costs nothing to check first.
If you are not sure which of these you have, that is what the free diagnostic is for. It costs nothing and it is the step that stops people paying for the wrong repair.
What parts do we fit?
Where Apple supplies a service part for this component, that is what goes in. Where it does not, we fit premium aftermarket and say so. Which of the two you are getting is settled before you agree to anything, and the 360-day warranty does not change between them.
The words genuine and Apple certified mean something specific and we only use them when they are true of the part in front of us. Anything else is described as premium aftermarket, plainly.
What the €120 includes
- The replacement front camera assembly fitted
- Proximity and ambient light sensors checked
- Face ID tested where it is part of the assembly
- 360-day warranty on the part and the workmanship
No additional paid work happens without your approval. If the diagnostic finds something behind the part we are replacing, we stop, explain it and confirm the cost first.
Dublin collection and return is available on weekdays if you cannot make it in. Nothing about the price or the cover changes because the courier brought it.
Choose the part
Two tiers, named before you agree.
The front camera rides in the display assembly on most phones, so the tier conversation usually happens alongside the screen one.
Value Edition
Premium aftermarket, tested to the same standard
Made to the original specification. On a front camera the difference is small and the saving is real.
Priced at the counterThe €120 on this page is our standard quote for this repair. Which tier suits your device is a conversation at the counter, and the price for each is on the table before you decide. The 360-day warranty is the same on both, because we would not offer a tier we did not think would last.
Tell us if face unlock stopped at the same time. On several phones that is a different and more involved part than the camera on its own, and it changes what we order.
How we do it
From the counter to back in your hand.
Tell us what it is doing
Walk in during opening hours or book ahead, whichever suits. Tell us what the device is actually doing rather than what you think the fix is.
Free diagnostic
Before a part is ordered we establish what has really gone wrong. It is free, and it is the reason people do not leave here having paid for the wrong thing.
You approve the price
The price is confirmed to you before anything begins, and it does not move afterwards unless you agree to something else.
The repair is carried out
Carried out here in Drumcondra rather than sent away, by people who do this repair daily.
Bench testing
The repaired function and the things around it are checked before we call you.
Back in your hands
Collected from Drumcondra, or returned to your door if we picked it up. Covered for 360 days.
Before it goes back
What we test every time.
A repair is not finished when the part is fitted. It is finished when the things around it have been checked.
Photo and video
Both, because a module can pass one and fail the other.
Auto brightness
The ambient light sensor sits in the same strip and is easy to disturb.
Stills and video
Both, because a module can pass one and fail the other.
The earpiece and the sensors beside it
All of them ride in the same assembly and all of them get disturbed.
Is anything on the device at risk?
This is hardware work. We do not need to go into your photos, messages or accounts to do it, and we do not.
We do need to switch the device on and use it to test the repair, so we may ask for your passcode. If you would rather not hand it over, tell us and we will show you what we cannot verify without it. Any passcode you give us goes on the paper docket and the docket gets shredded. It is never stored in our system.
Back the device up before any repair. Not because we expect to lose anything, but because a device that has already been dropped is one whose storage has already been shaken, and a backup costs nothing.
Is it still water resistant afterwards?
Treat the device as no longer water resistant after any repair, including this one.
An IP rating is measured on a brand new, factory sealed device in a laboratory. It is a description of how that device left the factory, not a property it keeps. Heat, age and everyday knocks degrade the seal long before anybody opens it, which is why phones that have never been repaired still let water in.
Opening a device means cutting through adhesive. We refit with fresh adhesive, which gives you back a physical seal that keeps rain and splashes out. What we will not do is claim the original rating is restored, because there is no way for us or for any independent shop in Ireland to test that.
If the device lives near water, tell us when you book. It changes what we recommend and it is a two minute conversation rather than a surprise afterwards.
The 360-day warranty
Every completed repair is covered for 360 days on the part and the workmanship. If the display we fitted fails, or the fitting was at fault, we put it right at no charge.
What it does not cover is a new accident. A phone dropped again after the repair, fresh physical damage, liquid damage, or a fault in a part we did not touch, all sit outside it. That is the same limit any honest repair warranty has.
No fix, no fee. The diagnostic is free, and if the repair does not happen you pay nothing.
Three ways to get it to us
- Walk in to Drumcondra4 Richmond Road, Dublin 3. No appointment. Mon to Sat 10:00 to 18:00, closed Sunday. Most phone screens and batteries done in 15 to 45 minutes while you wait.
- We collect and returnDoor to door across Dublin, Monday to Friday, usually 2 to 4 working days. The repair takes the same time; the courier is the difference.
- Send it in yourselfPost it to the shop with a tracked, insured service and a note with your number. We cannot cover a parcel in transit, and that is the honest trade-off for the route existing.
Same repair price and the same 360-day warranty on all three. The only thing that changes is how the device travels.

€120, including the part, the fitting, the testing and the 360-day warranty. VAT is included. You get that figure confirmed before anything is opened, and if we cannot repair the phone you pay nothing.
Usually same day. If the diagnostic turns up something else, or a part has to be ordered, we tell you before you commit rather than after.
On most models the front camera and the Face ID components are separate parts in one assembly, so the camera can be replaced without touching Face ID. We check yours before we start and tell you if that is not true of your model.
Sometimes, and not always. The dot projector is paired to your phone at the factory, so if that specific component has failed it often cannot be replaced with a working one. We will tell you straight rather than charging you to find out.
Yes, when the job is done properly. On most phones the unlock hardware sits in the same assembly and has to be handled with the camera. That handling is what goes wrong in a rushed repair.
On most phones it is mounted in the display assembly rather than the body, so it comes out with the screen. That is also why it sometimes stops working after a screen repair done badly.
Usually yes. The camera is its own module inside the assembly and it can be swapped on its own.
