From the bench
Notes from our workshop — what we see on Google Pixel
Real observations from our certified technicians — the things you only learn after thousands of repairs on the same model. No marketing spin, just what we actually deal with every day.
Pixel 6 / 7 / 8 in-display fingerprint sensor
Pixel 6 onwards uses an optical fingerprint sensor under the OLED. After a screen swap the sensor needs a calibration step — not all shops do it, and the customer ends up with a fingerprint reader that 'works sometimes'. We run Google's Recovery calibration before handover so the reader returns to factory accuracy.
Battery swelling on Pixel 4 and 4 XL
Pixel 4 series is the most common model we see with battery swelling — usually pushes the screen up by a millimetre before the customer notices. Replacement is the right fix; continuing to use it risks the OLED panel cracking from below.
Charging port on Pixel 7 Pro and 8 Pro
The Pixel 7 Pro and 8 Pro USB-C port is held to the mid-frame with a single screw and clip — easy to damage during DIY removal. Symptoms: phone charges but only on the wireless pad. We replace the port with a flex-pre-attached module so we never need to reflow the original board.
Tensor chip overheating on Pixel 6 — symptom vs. cause
Early Pixel 6 batches have known thermal issues with the Tensor SoC. Customers come in for 'screen burn'; the real cause is a degraded thermal pad. We re-paste the SoC with high-conductivity compound — about 75% of cases come back well within Pixel's thermal envelope without any other repair.
Factory unlock vs. carrier unlock
Pixels bought through US carriers are sometimes locked even after they're paid off. We can't unlock a carrier-locked Pixel — but we'll confirm the carrier status in 30 seconds on the bench so the customer knows before they pay for any other repair.

Very prompt service and overall waiting time was convenient. The repair made the phone look as-new and the technician was generous enough to throw in a free screen protector! This is my second experience here and I can proudly say it was a 5-star service both times. Highly recommend!
Walked in with a completely broken screen and cracked back glass on my iPhone 15 pro, and within an hour, left with it good as new. Staff was obviously very well versed in his skills, as well as being kind and generous, highly recommend their services!
I recently had my phone repaired at this shop, and the experience was outstanding from start to finish. The team was professional, knowledgeable, and transparent throughout the entire process. They diagnosed the issue quickly, explained the repair clearly, and delivered the phone back to me in perfect working condition — all within the promised timeframe.
Back glass + battery replacement on an iPhone 14 Pro Max. Happy with the quality of the repair, and the whole process was smooth and painless, excellent customer service, and generally, really pleasant sales/service personnel. Highly recommend!
Excellent prices, service and advice. Change my phone screen and battery. Looks and behaves as new. Highly recommended.
“iPhone 15 Pro screen replacement”
I took my phone to this shop for repair and had a great experience. The staff were kind and professional, and the service was quick and punctual. They solved my problem right away, so I would definitely recommend it.
“MacBook Pro battery”
My MacBook Pro battery was swelling and I was terrified of the cost. These guys gave me a fair quote, finished same-day, and the 12-month warranty is the cherry on top.
“Galaxy S24 back glass”
My Samsung Galaxy's back glass was destroyed after a bike crash. They matched the finish perfectly — you genuinely can't tell it was ever broken. Top tier work.
“iPad mini charging port”
iPad mini charging port was dead. Thought it was gone. They cleaned and repaired it in 40 minutes for a quarter of what Apple quoted me. Absolute lifesavers.
“Pixel 8 water damage”
My Pixel 8 got water damaged at a beach weekend. They did board-level work overnight and it came back better than new. Honestly incredible technicians.
“Apple Watch screen”
Apple Watch Series 9 screen cracked during a run. Swapped it in under an hour. Faster than Apple and $200 cheaper. This is my repair shop for life now.
“iPhone 14 battery”
Booked a Friday afternoon slot for my iPhone 14 battery. In, out, and back to work before my next meeting. The staff were genuine legends — no upsell, just great work.
“MacBook Air keyboard”
My MacBook Air's keyboard had three dead keys after a coffee spill. Full top-case replacement, perfect work, and they explained every step. True craftsmen.
“iPad Pro screen”
iPad Pro screen took a brutal hit. They ordered the part, fixed it in 24 hours, and the Apple Pencil still feels perfect on it. That's rare quality.
“iPhone 17 Pro Max Repair ”
Best phone repair service around. Service was friendly, fast and reliable! Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a decent phone place! Max is highly knowledgeable experienced and friendly!
