COVID-19 Update - 4th May 2020.

🦠🔬😷

We are now operating in a limited capacity by appointment only, and with distancing and safety procedures in place including disinfecting of your devices and our tools with 99% isopropyl alcohol, and contact-less payments.

Please note we are extremely busy and are booked at least 2 days in advance at the moment, so we're unable to do jobs at the drop of a hat unfortunately, but get in touch early to secure a repair spot for your device!

The latest, best iPhone screen tech available.

Boost your Laggy Laptop!

💻 Is your laptop running like the tortoise 🐢 or the hare 🐇? Get several more years from an ailing laptop with a Solid State Drive (SSD) upgrade, for a fraction of the cost of a new computer.💰 And there are no moving parts in an SSD, unlike a typical laptop hard drive ⚙️ So...much less chance of failure when the laptop is being moved around, which is kinda their job! 😉

🚀 Reduces startup time from several minutes to 30 seconds or less!
⏭️ Noticeable increase in responsiveness.
☑️ Faster access of files and programs.
☑️ Faster copying and installing of software.
🛡️ No risk of failure during transport.

Choose an OEM iPhone Screen, not a cheap substitute.

🍏 Choose a screen replacement that is up to Apple's standards in quality, plus a 6 month warranty and free tempered glass screen protector included. 

We use genuine OEM screens which have the original Apple LCD display and touch response. These are the best quality screens for your iPhone, and we are the only service in Rotorua using them by default. Most repair services don't even stock them, and we can GUARANTEE you won't be getting one of these for the prices others are advertising.

Samsung Galaxy S5 Screen Replacement

This S5 was Kaput!

Look at it now. Gleaming and shiny, and ready to be smudged up and tapped on to your heart's content. This is one of the most deceiving mobile phone repairs around. It can appear very simple, but if you don't clean the frame out properly, and use some incredible hulk-type adhesive, the screen will not stay down! You'll get lift around the edges, maybe not straight away, but eventually.

Fortunately Inspect Your Gadget uses only the most hardcore adhesive especially designed for the Samsung Galaxy S5 and its demanding screen. We have done dozens of these now, so rest assured if you bring your Galaxy S5 to us for repair work, you will not only get the cheapest screen replacement price around. You will also get a master quality repair job. Our workmanship comes with a 3-month warranty. Translation...if it's still good after 3 months...it's gonna be good forever. Or at least until you break it again and find yourself calling us!

iPhone 5 Resurrection!

Check out one of our latest jobs. This iPhone 5 appeared to have been put under an actual STEAMROLLER. The front was totally smashed, the back was damaged and bits missing. Even the front camera was destroyed.

With a little handy work from us, we replaced the entire body, the front camera, and the LCD / glass. The phone is literally good as new now, and could sell for $300-$450. Total cost to our customer $175.

Help Us Help John

You all might have heard of John Connolly. He's a Police Officer in Papakura, Auckland. He is also a very close personal friend of my cousin. He featured in National News awhile back after being brutally beaten by a gang of 30 callous thugs for trying to stop a young woman being beaten up. This year John had some terrible news: a type of Cancer than cannot be operated on here in New Zealand. Please at least take a minute to read about John's story, and see if you can join us on the crusade to get him to the UK to receive this life-saving operation.

Inspect Your Gadget's 1st official day online!

Welcome to the first iteration of our new website and shop. Since we don't have a physical shop (who needs one in this day and age?) we thought we better get a website, fast. So here it is. We will be adding products and services to our site regularly over the coming weeks, so please check back soon.

The screen repair services you'll find here are our most common repairs, but are by no means the only ones we do! We can repair phones, tablets, laptops and computers of all popular brands. We are also getting more stock in soon on great cases and protection for your gadgets, so watch this space....
