How to Find My iPad Model Number?
Hi,
I want to repair my iPad screen, but I’m not sure which model I have. I checked the back side and saw some small text, but I don’t understand what it means.
How can I find the exact iPad model number before booking a repair?
To correctly identify your iPad model before repair, you must check the Model Number that starts with “A”.
Simply knowing “iPad Pro” or “iPad Air” is not enough.
✅ Correct Way to Find iPad Model Number
Turn your iPad over and look at the bottom area of the back panel.
You will see small text like:
Model A1474
That “A” number is your exact iPad model number.
This is the most accurate way to identify your device.
Why This Is Important?
Many users say:
- “I have iPad Pro”
- “It’s iPad Air”
- “It’s 10 inch iPad”
But inside “iPad Pro” itself there are multiple models like:
- Different screen sizes (9.7”, 10.5”, 11”, 12.9”)
- Different years (2017, 2018, 2020, 2021, 2022)
- Different display connectors
- Different digitizers
- Different batteries
Even if two iPads look identical, the internal parts can be completely different.
That’s why the A-model number is mandatory before screen replacement or any hardware repair.
