The Mobile Shop

Llegué y me atendieron muy rápido resolviendo el problema con mis dispositivo de la manera más eficiente y a un bajo coste. Después de dar muchas vueltas estoy muy agradecido de haberlos encontrado. Awesome!

Love these guys. They fixed my cracked screen as well as my dead battery on my iPhone 6– it was fixed quickly and didn’t break the bank. I am so grateful!

My wife dropped her iPhone 5s while we were in NYC and cracked the screen. I found this shop on Unilocal. I sent them an email and they responded back within minutes with a price quote for the repair. They were very courteous and quick. I was in and out of the store in under 20 minutes! Awesome service!

My galaxy mega screen was smashin thousand pieces. After searching in Unilocal y found this amazing guys. My phone looks and works like new! Thank you so much guys this will became the store for all my phone needs. Highly recomended.

The staff isn’t «warm and friendly» but they were quick and efficient, which was really all I needed. This was my first time getting my screen cracked, so I guess the price was fair (pretty equitable to what I heard others say). Was in and out in 15 minutes. They have pretty good accessories too.

Update: Broke my screen again! That’s me. But this time I broke my LCD as well. Tried going to a place closer to my apartment in Brooklyn and they were both rude and we’re going to charge me $ 180 to get it fixed.
I decided to come back to The Mobile Shop instead and I’m glad I did. In and out in 20 mins, it only cost me $ 99 to get my iPhone 5’s screen &LCD fixed, and not to mention they are super nice! Also have a great $ 50 for $ 30 deal on Unilocal,so it really only cost me $ 80!!! Will be back!

I was pleasantly surprised with the knowledge and level of service received. I wanted an unlocked phone to take on my planned travels through Europe and was given good advise and also a complementary European power connector for the phone I purchased.

I brought in my cracked iphone screen and they fixed it in 30 minutes! The owner Jay is great and takes the extra step to make sure the customer is 100% satisfied.
I highly recommend the Mobile Shop!

Just paid $ 100 to get my iPhone 5s screen fixed. I think the price is a little bit on the high side considering it’s an iPhone 5s and the reviews here quote lower fees.
And now my phone’s mic isn’t working.
On the plus side, it took them 15 minutes to fix the screen. But now I will have to go back to get my mic fixed, requiring another trip and more time.
Advice is to go elsewhere for better pricing and services.

A shop that actually cares about service with integrity. They won’t try to «unlock» your already unlocked phone like those other shady mobile shops just because you don’t know any better.
The place I go to for any and all my phone issues and accessories.
Make sure to check out their Lax brand of chargers. Excellent quality and very durable — unlike most of the crappy stuff out there from China.
Staff is very knowledgeable and always helpful. Not always trying to stuff a sale down your throat or upsell a service you don’t need. Worth my repeat business just for that.
This is my go to spot for cell phone repair and accessories!

I’m a fan. I dropped my phone 2 stories down the gap between stairs on the stairwell. They repaired the whole LCD and screen on my phone (Galaxy Note 4) in under 1 hour. The Note 4 has a big LCD, so it was a little pricey, but understandably so.
They have a tiny operation of 3 or 4 people. I only saw one person in the back repair room — I assume that person is a genius at what they do.
They are well stocked, they even already have screen protectors for the upcoming Galaxy Note 5!

Great neighborhood shop. Good service.

Great guys! Said it would take 10−15min and it only took 3! Would definitely recommend.

My screen got fixed in no time. It works as of it is a brand new phone. 5 stars from me!

Everytime I come to NYC I see these guys! I had to unlock my phone (I’m Australian) and they did it there on the spot for a reasonable price. Unfortunately I lost that iphone and a month later they fixed me up with a second hand phone great price even have me a free cover!!! If I need to get a new sim every time I visit they get me up and running on an American network. My bf smashed his Samsung screen and took it here and they fixed that for him too! They are always busy and I recommend them to anyone with phone problems! I’ve been back to this store at least 3 or 4 times. They are great!

I cracked my iPhone 5C after dropping it for the thousandth time. Most of the screen was completely pulverized. I looked through several options here on Unilocal and picked this place based on the good reviews and convenient location. It’s just a couple of blocks away from the 1, 2, and 3 at 72^nd street and the M11 bus.
When I got there, the staff was helping another customer and answering her 103 683 questions really patiently and knowledgeably. They were super professional and friendly.
When it was my turn the staff member helping me took a look at my phone, explained what he needed to do to repair it, and gave me a price quote. He also explained the Unilocal deal to me and encouraged me to buy it –saving me more than $ 20.
They completely fixed my phone in less than 20 minutes and even offered me a comfy seat to wait in. I obviously hope I never have to come back for a phone fix, but they have a big selection of high quality cases, powercords, screen protectors, and other phone stuff for lots of different smartphones and tablets.
If you need phone help (they also do tablets, laptops, and more), this is the place to go!

What is there to say? They made my smashed phone as good as new. Fast, professional service. Wholeheartedly endorsed!

Long time user (can’t believe almost 10yrs now!) here who has appreciated all the tips, insight and reviews by my fellow Unilocalers. In making a decision to become more active on platforms that I regularly use, I’m happy to have had such a great experience with the Mobile Shop here in the UWS that I decided to share my first review here.
The glass on our iPad3 had cracked and rather than seek professional help the first time, my friend offered his help and so went with a bandaid rather than a fix. As you could have guessed, we cracked the screen a second time (I have 2 young daughters) and decided to finally have it fixed.
After a quick search here on Unilocal,I found a handful of mobile shops in the area and after speaking with each, chose Mobile Shop because of their pricing and what seemed like genuine interest in helping.
Popped into the store and was promised the brand new screen within 2 hours… And happy to report that it’s as good as new!
Chris and Jay do a great service to the neighborhood and will be my go-​to for all wireless needs.

Staff were nice, friendly.
Store is small, but cosy.
There are Various types of cases and screen protectors lined the store– which is good, as it demonstrates an interest in helping people get – and maintain – functional phones.
They also have a couple of deals for their mobile phone repair. This includes a $ 30 for $ 50 deal through Unilocal!,as well as a $ 10 off special. While these cannot be combined, it’s still pretty good.
They also offer pretty quick service, as repairing the front and back of my iPhone 4 only took about 30 minutes.

Soooo I shattered the glass on my Galaxy S4 and called around for quotes on glass replacement (my LCD is fine). The Mobile Shop’s price landed squarely in the middle of the pack, and they have their handy dandy Unilocal deal
iPhone Screen Repair Expert NYC — $ 155
Sunny Cellphone Repair Station — $ 125
The Mobile Shop — $ 129
Samsung Galaxy Repair NYC — $ 99

Was using an aftermarket charger in my Samsung S4, and lo and behold– it burned out the connectors in the charging port, to the point where I could not even plug the phone in to charge.
I fiddled around with the idea of just buying a replacement battery with an external charger, but that would only be a partial solution, as I’d be unable to dock with my computer.
The solution seemed easy enough, a couple YouTube tutorial videos made the repair look simple, except for he part would take a week to get to me, so I needed a solution fast– don’t get me wrong, I was thoroughly enjoying not having to respond to the world, but you can’t have too much of a good thing-​, so I Unilocaled a repair shop in the Upper West Side.
I’m coming down from West Harlem/​Manhattanville, and The Mobile Shop is conveniently located off the 72^nd Street Express ½/​3 stop. I popped in, they offered a same-​day fix, and for a price waaay lower than anticipated– but it is still NYC, after all.
I came back an hour later, and voila. Fixed. I’m a happy customer.

Review Update: 10:00PM, 23 December 2014; Just got home
As they handed me a semi-​charged phone, I had assumed the repair was done correctly, but that’s why one shouldn’t assume things. Came home, plugged the phone in aaaand — it doesn’t charge. same problem as before. Reading the other reviews on this place, it doesn’t bode well for this place, but I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt before I knock them back to one star. I’ll be back tomorrow morning. cross your fingers…

Update 24 December 2014–
Well, it appears the phone does charge, but it takes a minute for the port to even recognize that the phone is plugged in. Weird, but I suppose the Wireless Shop has made the fix after all. Can’t complain.
