Summers at the park, and what they do to phones
Humboldt Park gets used hard from May to September, and so do phones. Three things come up.
Water. A phone in the lagoon or a wet phone from a sudden storm needs fast action. Turn it off and don't charge it. Our guide to a phone dropped in water has the first-hour steps. Lake and pond water leaves more residue than tap water, so don't wait a week to see how it behaves.
Heat. A phone on a picnic blanket in the sun can shut itself down. That is usually normal, and our iPhone overheating guide explains when it isn't.
Hard ground. Paths and benches break glass. If your screen still works, back it up before the crack spreads.
iPhones and Android phones
We do iPhone repair for Humboldt Park customers on every common fault. See our iPhone repair page for models and prices. Most iPhone screens take about 30 minutes, and listed batteries start at $49.99. Samsung and Android phones are quoted by model, so call (773) 741-6682 with yours. If someone else offered you a price, you can compare it with ours before you travel.
Consoles
A family console that stops showing a picture is worth a look before you buy another one. Console repair in Humboldt Park starts with a simple check, because the fault can be a cable or the TV. If it is the HDMI port, the repair is listed on our console repair page at $149.99 for a PS5 or an Xbox Series X. You can also send a console by mail if carrying it on the bus isn't practical.
What you can count on
Phone repair in Humboldt Park should come with no surprises. You get the price first, and we explain what we are about to do. Parts carry a 90-day warranty, and labor may apply. Water damage repairs carry a 30-day warranty. Our warranty page has the full terms. If your phone is covered by AppleCare or a carrier plan, or if it isn't worth fixing, you will hear that before you spend anything.

What else can we fix?
What do people ask us?
How much will my repair cost?
Our public list covers most iPhones, iPads, Apple Watches and more, and you get the price before we start. Listed iPhone screens begin at $89.99, and the PS5 HDMI port repair is $149.99. If your model is not listed, call (773) 741-6682 and we will quote it first.
My phone fell in the lagoon. What should I do?
Get it out, turn it off and keep it off the charger. Don't use rice or a hair dryer. Pond and lake water leaves more behind than tap water, so get it cleaned soon, today if you can. We can't promise a result before we open it, but water repairs carry a 30-day warranty.
Do you fix game consoles?
Yes. We replace HDMI ports on the PS5 and Xbox Series X, and you can see the price on our list. Bring the console in with its power cable. We test it first, because the fault is sometimes the cable or the TV, and we would rather you did not pay for a part.
Can I repair two devices in one visit?
Yes, and it can save you a trip. Tell us what is wrong with each one when you come in, and you will get a price for each before we start. If one needs a part we have to order, you can take the other one home the same day.
Bring it in today.
