iPad Pro Found dead pixel middle of ipad pro, warranty expires in 3 days?

[uptempos]

Quick question. As long as I submit a warranty claim (box is on its way) before the warranty expires, I am still covered right? I submitted a display issue claim on 4/17 to have it sent out. The box comes in tomorrow 4/20, also the last day of warranty. Technically, since I submitted the claim before the warranty expires, I shouldn't have to pay anything right?

Thanks in advance.

Fully covered they will give you a new one at the Apple store in 5 minutes. They did for me.

And how many Apple stores are currently open these days?

Good luck finding an open Apple Store though. Most are closed outside of China if I’m not mistaken.

Only other country besides China with an open Apple Store is S. Korea, haha

well i dont think its being sent to a store. Its the online option where you send it in for repair (or swap for a refurb?) im not sure. Fingers crossed though. Hoping someone experienced somethign similar with a close end date of their warranty.

You'll be fine. Your iPad is going to an Apple repair depot where they will likely replace it with a refurbished or new unit. As long as you submitted the claim before AC expired, Apple will honor it.

Didn't they open stores in Spain too?

I had dust under my Pro and did an express exchange, the new one is perfect, should be the same thing like a dead pixel.

Dust? You mean there's an air gap?

@cyberone No, just one speck of dust under the screen. You can see it in the attached pictures.
