    Default Amazon kindle screen

    Hi fellas got the kids Amazon Fire 7 tabs at Christmas however the lad has gone and cracked his.
    It's a crack top to bottom the whole length of the screen. He can still use it but am curious as to anyone's advice on replacing the screen and also rough costs from reputable supplier for parts.

    Thanks

    Jaygo

    Amazon offer free repairs don't they? Was a big ad campaign about this I'm sure.

    Think that's only on the kids version.
    I'm away to investigate

    I knackered my kindle e reader by sitting on it. Called them up and they sent me a shiny new one following day - no questions. Worth a try

    A guess would be £25-35 all in but I am not sure who does them. Have you checked iFixit to see if you can do it yourself?
