iFix Cell Phone

I usually don’t write reviews, but this place deserves one! I shattered my iPhone 6 screen and took it the verizon store to get fixed. Found out with insurance it was $ 189 to fix. No way was I paying that. So a friend mentioned iFix to me. I was a little skeptical, but I went anyway. Daniel fixed my phone within 10 minutes. I was pumped because I could finally use my phone again without having glass fall and stick to my cheek when I was on the phone. Two weeks later, I noticed that it looked like my screen was separating from my phone. Then suddenly the left side of my screen stopped working – couldn’t use my phone. I took it back into iFix and Gabe and Daniel fixed it no problem! These guys are so nice and really stand by their product which is awesome.

I had been hurting to find a solution to my cellphone battery problem. Luckily with a bit of a search I discovered this place. Long story short, get your repairs done here. These guys are fast, affordable, and friendly. I was expecting double of what I paid, and a possible overnight cell stay. But it took ten minutes, and they gave me a free screen protector. Quick note, they only take cash, so come prepped; there’s a Bank of America right across the street though. My go to repair shop now!

I originally was going to go to UBREAKIFIX which is closer to my place, but they had a backorder of iphone 6 glass covers. iFix was ready and available when I called. Their pricing for glass replacement on iphone 6 is comparable to all other places I looked up (including in San Francisco where my phone originally broke). I bought the $ 5 for $ 10 deal on Unilocal and asked if it would apply to my repair, and the iFix rep said yes. No problems there, they applied the credit. I actually got sold on an upgrade, adding a tempered glass cover to protect from future breaks ($ 10), which was worth it for me. Dropped the phone off, went and got lunch, came back and everything was good as new, they even charged my phone when they were done and waiting for me to pick it up.
Great experience, market pricing, fast, and I recommend the $ 10 upgrade for screen protector.

no wonder why this place has 5 stars! very friendly and professional service and support!

Writing this review from the iPhone they fixed. Screen wasn’t cracked, just dead, and they immediately replaced it in front of me, now fully functional again. $ 100 for a replacement screen… still far cheaper than a new phone and probably less than anything Apple would have offered me. The staff was super friendly, as well!

This place is incredible. GO THERE. Ask for Marcus.
Marcus performed state of the art technological surgery on what I thought was my beyond repair out of commission iPhone 4s and brought it back to life, while showing me exactly the problems, and how he was fixing it.
My phone was back in less than 20 minutes.
This is a business concerned with helping people. I can’t recommend it enough.
Thank you to Marcus and Jenny!

Daniel did a great job with my iPone 5s. It looks and works like new. I would defiantly recommend them to anyone looking for repair and replacement of cellphone and iPad components. 5 stars.

This is a fantastic small store driven by helping instead of sales. I went in thinking that my speaker was broken on my iPhone, and Daniel the technician diagnosed my phone. Turns out he didn’t need to replace he speaker, fixed my issue and replaced a few missing screws. I don’t live in Chicago (just visiting) but if I did this place would get all my business.

This is the cell phone repair place you are looking for. After a nightmare experience at another repair shop (Dr. Cell — they put FOUR bad LCDs on my phone after it was cracked and tried to tell me that my phone was the problem), I found this place on Unilocal,and it truly lived up to the reviews. Dan was super friendly and knowledgeable, and completed the repair right in front of me, even pointing out and explaining each part of the problem, including each and every one of the nightmare shop’s mistakes. I walked out with a used, perfectly-​functional original Apple screen/​LCD on my phone for $ 80 plus tax (what the other place charged for the non-​original, bad screens, and way less than Apple would charge for a new one), plus a tempered glass screen cover that Dan included and installed for free without me even asking about them. Thank you for pulling me out of my nightmare, iFix!
Note: Bring cash. It’s cash-​only. There is a BoA across the street if that is your bank.

They are wonderful! Came in because my iPhone 5s screen was shattered — with in 30 min I had a new screen. Only $ 100. Amazing!!! Works like new.

I can’t say enough about the folks at iFix! !
You know that feeling you get when you go to the mechanic and they tell you you have to fix ALL these things on you car? I went there to have my son’s phone fixed after a swelling battery started to push his screen out. I got several estimates all much more expensive and including things Marcus assured me weren’t really necessary at all. They did the repair right in front of me! It was amazing to watch the whole process. He installed this great glass screen protector for just $ 10 with the repair and even threw in one in for my phone as well. I could almost hear choirs singing when I looked at my happy new phone!
The people there are so nice! You just feel like this is a friend giving you the straight dope on the what you really need. No upsell. Just great friendly service, skilled repairs and reasonable prices. What more could you ask for!

Hands down one of the finest service experiences in Chicago. I will never waste time at Apple again waiting to get a phone repaired. IFix was knowledgable, efficient, friendly and fair-​priced. Marcus fixed my husband’s shattered screen, bent frame, and replaced the camera in under an hour and without an appointment. Apple won’t even tackle bent frames, they’ll just try to sell you a new device. IFix will now always be my first stop for mobile issues.

I had an excellent visit here! They were willing to work with me to find the most economical solution to my iphone 5’s problem. That alone is golden. So many places go out of their way to rip you off, but not this location. I checked at other stores and they were willing to give me a better deal. I will definitely return to them with future phone needs. Also, they were super friendly and accommodating. They really talked through everything and were willing to listen to what I had to say/​my financial concerns! Bring your service here! :)

I had the best experience here getting my phone screen fixed a few days ago. My phone had fallen and the screen was extremely cracked. I was planning on getting it fixed but then to make matters worse it fell off of my desk and rather than just having a cracked screen, the entire thing turned purple and blue rendering it unusable. I thought that I would have to replace my entire phone however Marcus is AMAZING and I don’t know that I would trust anyone else with my phone repairs after working with him. He sat down with me and within 20 minutes had replaced and fixed my screen directly in front of me. He explained everything that he was doing and was unbelievably knowledgable. He was also just extremely pleasant and friendly. For the price and the unbeatable service you receive here, I wouldn’t go anywhere else! Marcus even threw in a tempered glass screen protector for free to avoid me damaging my phone again!
He was awesome, this place is awesome, you should go here.

I entered the store with a very cracked iPhone and left within 20 minutes with it fixed. The customer service was spot on. They listened to me and told me exactly how they replace the screen. The repair was interested to see firsthand!
Will go back again if I need any other repairs.

MARCUS IS AMAZING. NO OTHER PLACE TO GO. GET YOUR PHONES FIXED HERE.
I don’t think 5 stars is enough to suffice the exceptional customer service that I experienced with Marcus with my past two visits. My earpiece wasn’t working on my cell phone and Marcus was able to replace the speaker in under 15 minutes. He was very diligent in explaining what exactly he was doing and the reasoning before taking action. After swapping the earpiece for a brand new one ($ 40 charge as insurance would have charged much more) we tested the new earpiece numerous times, I was sent home a very pleased customer.
Turns out several hours later the earpiece is no longer working again! The next day I return to see Marcus once again with my earpiece issue. Always smiling and generous as he is, Marcus tackled the next problem that could be happening with the earpiece. He pondered that it must be a poor connection with my screen frame and the wire to the earpiece speaker. Marcus replaced my entire screen and added tempered glass for all for FREE!!! AMAZING customer service.

Was too excited getting a taco and dropped my phone. Screen no worky :/
Came here next day, got fixed under an hour (probably — to be fair was camping at starbucks for a bit)
Friendly staff, threw in Unilocal coupon, and a free basic case (ya thats right, didnt have one on before because naked feels so good).
5/​5, would drop phone again

Marcus is great! The Apple Store and cell provider told me there was no hope for the broken home button. Marcus didn’t give up! He trouble shot the issue right in front of me, explaining as he went. It ended up being a fraction of the cost of a new phone and works perfectly.
This is definitely my go-​to phone fix shop (but, hopefully I won’t need to visit them again).

Absolutely love this place.
First time I went in I had a smashed up business phone that contained tons of pics of my kids. I didn’t want to buy a new lcd — so they let me use a new one temporarily so I could download the pics to another device — no charge.
Came in more recently with another damaged LCD that they fixed in 30 min (had a flight to catch). There isn’t a better, more professional place in town to quickly bring your phone back to life.
Now if I can just figure out how to stop needing their services all will be well.

First of all, let me just say, the guys who run this business are the nicest guys you’ll meet! Second of all, they are fast, efficient, and do the job right.
I brought my phone in and they had it ready for me in 20 minutes flat. The man explained to me the inner components of my cell phone and how I had shattered many panes of glass by dropping it multiple times. He then put on an extra sheet of protective glass for half the price of what it costs at Best Buy in order to protect it even more in the future. They also charged me way less than what other repair places quoted me. I’m pretty sure they have the best prices in town!
I would never dream of getting my phone fixed anywhere else! It’s not often you run into people as nice and professional as the guys at iFix! I left with a giant smile on my face!
