Replace cracked or unresponsive touch glass on a compatible iPad mini 3 with this white BQ7 touch screen digitizer. It includes the digitizer and IC connector and is intended for experienced repairers and professional technicians.
When this part is suitable
Choose a digitizer when the outer touch glass is cracked or touch input is faulty but the LCD underneath still produces a clear image. If the display has lines, black areas, ink-like bleeding, no image or backlight failure, the LCD may also require replacement.

What is included
1 × BQ7 white touch screen digitizer with IC connector for iPad mini 3. A Home button, Home-button bracket, LCD, adhesive and tools are not included unless pictured or stated separately.
Touch ID and installation
The original Home button assembly must be transferred to retain Touch ID. A replacement Home button may restore ordinary button operation but cannot restore the original Touch ID pairing.
Professional installation is strongly recommended. Disconnect the battery before handling internal connectors, protect the LCD beneath the digitizer and avoid sharply bending the flex cable. Test touch response across the full screen before applying adhesive or completing reassembly. Damage caused during installation is not a manufacturing defect.
