I'm so grateful for a trustworthy repair place for common people that's not in far-flung Pasadena, Hollywood or Long Beach. The previous management or different owners at this address had a lady who went right for the hard sell and I'm like "nah." I'm glad I kept cruising by and tried again after seeing enough to sense this business changed. These owners/ techs are legit!
My 2009 MacBook Pro "17 was incrementally glitching and I'm so glad it acted-up there at eStar Techs on a Friday morning. The tech could have told me that I needed a replacement screen after troubleshooting, but he was honest: it was the connector between the screen and motherboard that was just a bit lose and had some corrosion. A screen replacement was going to be the money suck, but he just cleaned it up so my investment could go towards swapping a messed-up optical drive, swapping a battery that had super high power cycles, and swapping the Hitachi for a SSD to improve speed (therefore responsiveness). It was more than a fair price for parts and labor so to those of us under employed or outright unemployed, paying eStarTechs to extend the life of older devices is a good investment.

   Read moreAbsolutely incredible service! My nephew's Xbox had a damaged HDMI port. It’s a very special gift from his late mother, so getting it fixed meant the world to him. We first tried another shop that quoted an outrageous price and said it could take over a week.
Then I called this place—and I’m so glad I did. Not only was the quote much more reasonable, but they also said they could fix it within an hour! We went straight there, and the technician got to work immediately. He didn’t just fix it—he triple-checked everything to make sure it was working perfectly. When something still seemed off, he dove right back in without hesitation.
Two hours later, the Xbox was as good as new, and my nephew was over the moon. He even said, “That guy was so cool!” They even stayed open a little late just to make sure the job was done right.
Thank you for going above and beyond. I highly recommend this place...
   Read moreMassive thanks to Sal at eStarTechs in Downey! I brought in my PlayStation 5 (PS5) with a damaged fan connector, and he handled the micro soldering repair flawlessly in under 45 minutes—and it only cost $75. Super fair, super fast, and incredibly professional. Sal is clearly an expert in PS5 repairs, game console diagnostics, and motherboard-level fixes. He saved me from spending hundreds or waiting weeks on mail-in repair services. If you're in Downey, Los Angeles, or Orange County and need console repairs, soldering services, or anything from PS5 to Xbox, this is the spot. Great local business, honest service, and highly skilled—can’t recommend them enough! You got me back in gaming in no time!!! Once again...
