All iPads Extreme Problem: Which iPad to buy for 3.5mm headphone jack?

[rui no onna]

How much does Apple charge to just look at a damaged iPad in an Apple Retail Store? The iPad still works and it has 256GB of storage so maybe I can use it in another productive way???

$0 just to diagnose.

$249 to repair which is basically giving you a replacement iPad (likely refurb).

Okay Reverend Benny, I checked and the iPad air isn't supported...?😥😥😥

I can't see why the Air wouldn't be supported. It's pretty much the same HW as the Pro.
I'm guessing they have missed to list it.
E-mail them and ask. And even if you don't wanna use Belkin, there are a lot of others to choose from.

Ugreen is a well known brand, they list the Air.
