Encore Technologies

I am so grateful I found this place. My Macbook Air's trackpad started glitching out, which had happened a year ago and needed to be replaced. I was visiting here from out of town, and the place in my hometown was going to charge me twice as much to replace it, and take a week to get it done. Encore had it done in a day and a half for half the price, and every did a super nice clean up on the hardware of my laptop, which had gotten pretty dirty over time. Thank you so much! You saved me from being without my laptop for a whole work week, and a lot of money too! High recommend. Everything was swift, smooth and easy.

Battery was overheating. I called Apple and they said it was too old. Called computer DNA and they wanted $600 to replace the battery. Encore not only resolved my issue but upgraded my system to the latest OS and now it works great. Very reasonably priced as well! I highly recommend Encore!

I wanted to take advantage of Apple's discounted rate to replace my iPhone battery. The Apple website steered me to Encore Technologies, which seemed to have the benefit of not having to go to the Apple Store. I set up an appointment. The next day Encore sent me an email confirming my time, which was different than what I signed up for. I corrected the time (no big deal) and then asked "just to check, I am getting the $29 replace battery program through Apple?" Encore's response stated "Please send us the serial # of your phone and we can check with Apple to see if the battery would be under the replacement plan," which I did minutes after the request. Four days later I had not heard back from Encore, so I went to the appointment. When I arrived the man at the desk informed me that Encore does not do $29 battery replacements, but that they are $60+ (even though this is not specified on the Apple website nor on the confirmation email from Apple nor in the confirmation email from Encore!). I showed him the email from Encore requesting my serial # (which, again, I sent you), and he said that I should take it up with "Global Headquarters." This was entirely avoidable: a simple response to my email from Encore informing me why they cannot offer the $29 replacement would have done the trick. Instead, their response suggested that assuming I had a phone covered under Apple's discounted repair plan (I do) I would get the rate. That was misleading and false. The upshot is that I wasted half an hour of my workday for a totally avoidable reason. It's a lack of transparency that I wouldn't expect to get away with at my work.

Recently, my 5 year old MacBook Pro 2012 failed, kernel panic. AppleStore said most likely the logic board failed, and offered $500 flat rate repair without the warranty. Encore Tech, however, dignosed that it was a defective hard drive cable, which was replaced a month before. It was repaired at a fraction of the Apple flat rate. Now, the MBP works wonderfully. Strength: technical know-how communicating with client about the problem at hand friendly service cost of service ease of appointment Weakness: timeliness * I will update if a problem with the current repair occurs. Aug. 1st, 2018 This is another review apart from the previous one. My 2012 MBP was having more issues, apps failing, MBP slowing down, and unintended reboots. I know this is an old laptop, and I've been trying to squeeze more years to the life of my laptop. After testing, Encore figured out that it was my RAM (16 GB, RipJaws) that was failing. RAM was replaced with an in-house RAM while I was getting a replacement (warranty) from RipJaws, so that I could continue to use my laptop in the mean time. After the replacement RAM arrived, Encore installed them in. Now, everything works beautifully. Thanks, Encore.

I recently had a logic-board replaced in my Macbook Pro at Elan Technologies. My experience with Elan was fantastic! The service was professional and fast and my Macbook works like new! I would recommend them to anyone looking to have a Mac product serviced and or repaired.
