Laptop Repair in Boston, MA — Dell, HP, Lenovo, ASUS, Acer, Surface

Cracked glass, dead pixels, lines on display, ghost touches, pink or green tint — these all point to screen replacement. We replace the full screen assembly (glass + OLED/AMOLED + digitizer) with premium aftermarket panels matched to your phone's original specs. Lifetime warranty on every screen we install.

Phone dies fast, drains overnight, shuts off at 30%, won't charge above a certain percent, or shows physical swelling — your battery is at end of life. Lithium-ion batteries wear out after 2-4 years of regular use. We replace with high-quality batteries matched to original capacity.

Won't charge, charges only at an angle, or only with certain cables — usually port lint, bent pins, or loose solder joints. Charging port cleaning is $29 — about 40% of cases solved this way without further repair. If replacement is needed, the port is soldered to the board.

Cracked or shattered display on a Dell, HP, Lenovo, ASUS, Acer, or Surface laptop? PC laptop screens are typically clip-out replacements done in 1-2 hours. We stock common LCD panels and source specialty displays (4K, OLED, touchscreen) within 2-3 days. Lifetime warranty applies.

Component-level repair when chips, capacitors, or solder joints on the logic board have failed. This is the work that lets us save phones other shops write off as "unfixable" — boot loops, no power, no signal, no display backlight. Requires microscope, hot-air rework station, and serious experience.

When the entire logic board has a problem — bent from a drop, failed power IC, dead RAM, corrupted bootloader — we attempt board-level repair before suggesting replacement. Repair is usually a fraction of replacement cost. Especially common after water damage events that weren't caught early.

Speed matters — corrosion eats into the logic board for days after liquid exposure, even after drying. Power off immediately, don't plug in, don't put in rice. We disassemble completely, ultrasonic-clean the logic board, microscope-inspect for corrosion, repair component-level damage. Hardware recovery only — data recovery is a separate service.

Phone won't turn on at all? Could be dead battery, failed charging port, water-damage corrosion, or genuine board fault. We work through the diagnostic process methodically. Most "dead phones" are actually one of the cheaper fixes — only a small percentage need full board work.

Cracked camera glass, blurry photos, autofocus failure, error message at camera launch — common after a drop. We replace the rear camera module and recalibrate. Note: cracked camera glass alone (without internal lens damage) can sometimes be replaced separately on certain models.

Built-in webcam not working for Zoom, Teams, or Google Meet calls? On Dell, HP, Lenovo, ASUS, and Acer laptops, the webcam is usually a separate clip-out module that can be replaced independently of the display. Microsoft Surface devices and ultrabooks with bonded displays may require a full display assembly replacement. We diagnose first and quote accordingly.

Speakerphone sounds muffled, distorted, or completely silent. Usually one of two things — speaker grille packed with pocket lint (clean it free during diagnostic) or speaker module physically blown from water/age. We replace the loudspeaker assembly in most Android phones.

Can't hear callers when phone is held to your ear, even at max volume? The small earpiece speaker at the top of the phone has failed. Common after water damage or just from age. Replacement requires opening the phone but is straightforward on most models.

Callers can't hear you, voice messages sound muffled, or Google Assistant/Bixby don't pick up your voice. Could be primary mic (bottom) or secondary noise-cancellation mic (top). We test both and replace the failed unit. Often paired with charging port flex cable on Samsung models.

Power button stuck, unresponsive, mushy, or wakes the phone on its own. The button itself is mechanical and wears out, or the underlying switch on the logic board has failed. We replace the button + flex cable assembly and test for proper actuation feel.

Laptop trackpad not clicking, registering false touches (ghost touches), or pushing up from below? Trackpad replacement is straightforward on most Dell, HP, Lenovo, ASUS, and Acer laptops. If your trackpad is pushing up, that's usually a swollen battery underneath — bring it in immediately, this is a fire safety issue. Surface devices and ultrabooks with bonded trackpads require more involved repair.

Phone doesn't vibrate for calls or notifications anymore, or makes a buzzing rattle instead of clean haptic feedback. The vibrator motor inside has failed or come loose. Affordable repair on most Android phones — the motor is a small module clipped to the housing.

SIM tray won't eject, bent, broken, or your phone says "no SIM detected" with a known-good SIM card. We replace the tray + sometimes the SIM reader on the logic board if the reader contacts are damaged. Inexpensive and quick.

Laptop USB-C / Thunderbolt port loose, not charging, or only charging at an angle? The port may be worn or have a bent pin. We replace USB-C and Thunderbolt ports on most PC laptops — on some laptops (Dell XPS, Surface, ASUS ZenBook) the port is soldered to the motherboard and requires microsoldering work. Most port replacements are 1-2 hours. Port cleaning sometimes resolves the issue without parts replacement.

Laptop speakers blown, distorted, or completely silent? Speaker replacement is routine on most PC laptop models. Common causes: liquid spill damage that corroded the speaker mesh, age-related driver failure, or impact damage from drops. Same-day for most Dell, HP, Lenovo, ASUS, and Acer models with parts in stock.
