New York Repair — Local services in Florence

New York Mobile Repair saved us from a potential calamity: My wife's Pixel 3a had developed a charging problem while in Sardinia. We had it looked at and supposedly "repaired" by a shop in Olbia. It turned out that shop has mis-diagnosed the issue and applied the wrong repair (they placed a jumper for an alleged power supply problem). When the phone soon stopped charging again, at this time we were in Florence, we thankfully found New York mobile repair. Yasir, the owner, is a friendly and very knowledgeable man. He also speaks excellent English, which helped a lot, in explaining the complicated Odyssey we have been through. Upon entering his shop and exchanging a few friendly words, I was immediately convinced that he would be our guy. His desk showed all the signs of someone deeply knowledgeable and constantly working inside phones, like a soldering iron, little wires and parts, a charger with an amp meter, etc. Yasir knows his craft. He was cautiously optimistic about being able to repair the phone and asked for two days to find and fix the issue. 24h later he called and said the job was done. He had done it the day I brought it in and kept it the rest of the time for observation to be sure. In the end it turned out that the charge port had corrosion on it, from moisture. But a replacement was out of the question, as this phone is not common on the continent. He knew the Pixel phones, however, and shared that he likes them as high quality devices of good value. So without a replacement part, he cleaned up the charge connector and removed the jumper the first guy had placed in error. Then he called me with the happy news. And his pricing was beyond reasonable. He's also available on WhatsApp which is handy. Look no further. Take your phone to New York...

I visited Florence just for one night. Having arrived late on a Friday evening I found that my notebook (Asus MSI) would not turn on. It was a disaster, as I had to use it urgently for my work. The next morning (it was Saturday) I started to look for a computer repair service in Florence. The first address was from the hotel I stayed in. There was a man there that told me that his colleague was’t working that day. He gave me another address. It was closed, too. At last, I looked up on the Internet and found New York Repair Service with very good reviews. The guy there (his name is Yasar) told me that maybe it would take some time to repair. I could not wait for so long, as I had a train to Rome at 8:30 p. m. He said that he would do his best, but didn’t require extra money for the speed-up. We agreed on my coming at 7 p. m. I arrived earlier, my notebook was working fine. I paid the sum we had agreed on plus something more, as I was happy and did not expect it really. I spend some time before my train talking to Yasar. He is a very decent, honest, and nice person and a highly qualified professional. I recommend his services...

The ONLY place to get your phone fixed in Florence that is worth your time and money. I recently dropped my phone in water and water got into the phone because of cracks on the back of it. It immediately shut off and wouldnt turn back on as much as I tried to revive it. Went to the apple store and they said there was no way to fix it and suggested I buy a brand new phone. I decided to take it to New York Mobile Repair for a second opinion. Yasir was so eager to help me out. I was anxious because I am leaving for the states in a few days and wasn't sure if I would have a phone. He calmed my nerves and asked to keep the phone for a few days to see what he could do. After 2 days I came back to the shop and he has my phone as good as new. He charged me very reasonably and was so happy he could help....
