What to Do With a Broken iPad in the UK
A broken iPad can be frustrating, but it doesn’t have to be worthless. Even if your iPad is cracked, faulty, or no longer turning on, you still have several practical options. From selling and recycling to responsible disposal, Gadget-Recycle makes it easy to get value from your broken iPad while avoiding unnecessary waste.
Assess the Damage First
Before deciding what to do, it’s helpful to understand the type of damage your iPad has:
Cracked or shattered screen – One of the most common issues
Battery problems – Rapid drain, not charging, or not powering on
Water or liquid damage – Can affect internal components
Hardware faults – Camera, speakers, buttons, or charging port issues
Even with these problems, your iPad can often still be sold or recycled.
Sell Your Broken iPad for Cash
If your iPad is damaged or faulty, selling it is often the quickest way to get value back. Gadget-Recycle specialises in buying broken iPads in the UK, including devices with cracked screens, battery faults, or that no longer power on.
