My kid’s iPhone 8 was water damaged. No matter how Apple Genius Bar and several repair shops tried to rescue the phone, it just could not get out of the recovery mode. Despite one of the shops told me no one can repair this phone, I kept calling around without much luck until I spoke with Gal at GB Wireless Cell Phone Computer Repairs. From my initial brief phone conversation with him, I felt he is a guy who has some exceptional experience that gave me some hope. I was convinced his repair shop would be my best bet. I decided to drive for 40+ minutes from Maryland to Arlington, VA and dropped off the phone. I called for a few times to ask for the progress and realized there were a lot of troubles with this phone. But a week later, he called me back and told me the phone is repaired and ready for me to pick up. And he charges a very reasonable fee. Imagine how much those Apple “Genius” guys would have costed me after this amount of work was done to save the phone. I’m really impressed with Gal’s skills and fair price, and he was very pleasant to talk with. I highly recommend this repair shop and will absolutely go back to him if I need to repair anything again.
I went to GB Wireless for water damage repairs to my iPhone XS Max. Gal was simply phenomenal and brilliant in quickly diagnosing the issue and providing a number of affordable options. I was very pleased and satisfied with his exceptional level of professionalism, courtesy and friendly demeanor. I highly recommend Gal from GB Wireless and plan to go to him in the future for all my mobile device repair needs. Gal is great at his craft and went above and beyond what I asked to get my phone working.
Call instead of using their FB Messenger link for best results.I have had two devices repaired here - a tablet with a broken screen, and a laptop with a bulging battery. Both repairs made the devices look and work like new. The staff is forthright and helpful, and the turnaround time is quick.
Exceptional service! Went in to get my laptop keyboard fixed as I had broken a key. Turns out I really broke it and probably need to buy parts but the gentleman there was kind enough to switch the keys for me, so I can use my laptop and didn’t charge me for what he did. 10/10 would recommend to anyone.
Hidden gem on Columbia pike! I’ve gone to this place twice now- both times I have received exceptional service. The owner is extremely professional & reasonably priced. The last time I went, I had called a UbreakIfix for a quote to fix my broken iPhone as I have just moved 30 minutes from Columbia. They wanted to charge me 3 times the amount, keep my phone for a minimum of 5 hours with the potential of keeping it a few days & they tried to con me into buying a new iPhone battery. I called my tried & true place where he explained everything & fixed my phone in about 30 minutes for 1/3 of the price. I will definitely keep driving the 30 minutes to this location. Trustworthy & experienced staff members.
My screen was expertly repaired within 20 minutes. This business is professional and friendly, and offers services at a great value. Will definitely return.
Prompt, honest and courteous service. Thought I had cracked iPhone. Luckily just the screen protector. No hustle-bustle or hard sells. Owner is one honest guy. Nearby parking lot is a big plus on Columbia Pike.
I had an iPhone 7 and iPad both with cracked screens.GB fixed them quickly and for a good price.Strongly recommend to anyone that needs these services.
I used to go to overpriced mall kiosk repair shops. Then I found GB store while passing by two years ago. I was hesitant but took my chances when I had my phone’s motherboard damaged and about to buy a new one. My guy fixed it with in less than an hour appointment and affordable price. He saved me from loosing my personal documents which I failed to back. I saved lots of money. I still am using the phone, of course my bad habit of dropping it made me visit my friend again last month. He advised me to use a better case, fixed my phone in no time. I told all my friends to go there and I suggest everyone to do so. I am a happy customer.
Needed to fix the screen on my Samsung phone. I brought it in and he explained what would need to happen and was up front about what the cost would be. He was very polite when I said I needed to think if the investment in fixing it was worth that to me. When I returned he was polite and very professional. My phone was fixed beautifully and in a timely manner. Hopefully I dont break my phone again, but if I have need of their services, I will be using them.
I received wonderful excellent same day service on two phones. The technician is very knowledgeable and the business is conveniently located on Columbia Pike with a large parking lot for parking. I have been a repeat customer on numerous occasions always with a positive outcome.
Cant say enough good things about Gal. He is the quintessential expert on cell phone mechanics. Just like a doctor, Gal asks questions to identify the symptoms, diagnoses the problem and prescribes a solution. His craftsmanship is top notch. And his customer service is outstanding
I popped in because my screen had cracked. They gave me a price, ordered the parts, and let me know when to come.
Service is great ans my phones looks brand new!
Very professional service, had both front and back glass fixed on my iphone xsmax. Gave me a fair deal on the job and was done in 2 hours time. Highly recommended to support this local business.
The only place in Arlington to take your cell phone or iPhone or iPad for repair. I’ve brought in an iPhone and iPad in for repair, and each time Gal has shown great attention to detail with diagnosing the problem, & communicating and providing options. Plus, he’s very knowledgeable and cost effective too. Don’t bother going anywhere else.
I was able to get my computer fixed quickly and at a very reasonable price. Would definitely recommend!
Had an iPad that was having trouble charging and service was affordable, quick and great communication. Love this place. Our new go to!!!
Gal is just awesome to work with he is very professional. The rates here are amazing and repairs are just as amazing
I’ve been to several different phone repair places and this is the only one I’ll go back to.
Outstanding, quick and friendly service, good value for money. Repaired charging connection, camera and cellphone, I was fully content. Recommendation!
Great service and good prices! Got the repair done quicker than promised!
Great place. Gal knows his stuff.
Called last Friday and spoke to Gal about my screen and battery and came by today about 30 minutes before closing. Although it was under an hour before closing time he still was able to take my phones and repaired them within the promised time frame. He was very professional and a true phone magician! Thank you so much!
These guys are a great family owned business. They looked at my sons phone (Galaxy S8+) and diagnosed it for free. After a day they told me nothing could be done for it and didnt charge me a dime.Finally an ethical tech group in the area.
Gal is knowledgeable and makes quick and competent repairs. He has been able to identify and repair issues we have had with our phones both times we have used his repair shop.
Gal is honest and friendly. He does good work. All my familys iphone repair is in his good hands
Got the battery and screen of my iPhone 6s Plus replaced. At first contacted a different shop through Yelp, allowing other shops to respond. The owner of this place responded with the best price and was the closest to my place. So I checked out the reviews and they were great. So I gave it a try. I’m happy with the replacement. Also, the owner is respectful and not pushy. I’m glad to have found a good repair shop nearby. I’m seriously considering to drop my insurance for iPad, because I can go to this place if I need to repair it in the future.
The owner Gal is the best repair tech in town! He fixed our phones on different occasions and has done incredible work. Great prices too.Dont be fooled by the shop upstairs. Gal is in the back like any top quality hole-in-the-wall shop would be.
We have been using GB wireless for over 7 years and they are always honest and friendly.
Replaced my phone battery in less than an hour! Fair price too
Brought my broken iPhone 7 into Gal and he was able to replace the screen and fix it in about half an hour. Super fast, very reasonable price and good location.Address on google was correct
Amazing service. My Samsung was vompletely cracked from dropping it and the screen would flash. I took it here on a holiday and it was fixed within less than 2 hours. The gentleman is a magician with phone repair. Very grateful and eill revommend to others.
I highly recommend this cellphone repair service. They fixed my shattered screen within 10 minutes as well as offered a warranty on their repairs. They are also the most reasonably priced in the area and are extremely customer service oriented which is always a plus! Thanks GB Wireless!
I called this place today after having had an incredibly poor experience at ubreakitifixit on route 7 on the right headed toward Shirlington, where I took it last week. I’ll post a different review on their site.So I called this place, spoke to the owner I believe and he told me what he thought the issue was and what the options likely were. There was clearly a problem with the charger port as when I’d plug it in it might or might not charge depending on the level of the cord.So I arrived at the shop with it and he said that often times if an iPad isn’t charging properly that it is an issue with the charger port not being clean or having foreign matter in there. So he said he could clean the port to see if it was the issue without needing to be replaced. He came back 5-10 minutes later and said that’s exactly what it was and it was fixed. $39.99 versus the $250 those other charlatans ended up quoting me. BTW, he said if I needed a new port it would still have been only around $90.Very nice guy. While he could have told me just about anything and I would have believed it, I could tell he was a person of integrity. I can’t recommend him highly enough. I wish I had gotten his name. Anyway, if you’re going down Columbia Pike toward DC it is on the next block, same side, as the Arlington Cinema and Draft House.Hopefully I won’t—but if you know me, I will— need iPad service again but I’ll gladly give it to him.
I found this place through the positive reviews from here and yelp. I cannot express how satisfied I am with the phone repair.I broke the screen on my S8 which is a difficult screen to repair and requested to have it done by the next day if possible. Gal drove to a local supplier that same day and worked on the repair all morning to have it done by lunch. He even did little things like charge the phone to 100% and didnt even charge too much for labor. Very reasonable and quick. Although I hope I wont break my phone screen again, I would recommend him to anyone with phone issues. Class act.
Its located at Columbia Pike in Arlington . I gave my phone for repairing the battery and they did good work on it . Charged 40$ for it which is decent price if compared to other phone service centers around Alexandria . I recommend this shop for the affordable prices and there is no other option available near Arlington that provides phone repair services which is plus point if you are looking to get yours repaired .
Replaced my shattered Samsung Galaxy S4 screen for $80. They didnt have the red trim in stock that my phone came with (due to the phone being an older model) but they did have a dark navy/black color. I dropped the phone off around 3pm and picked it up completely restored around 6pm. Not only did the gentleman fix my screen, but he appears to have cleaned out the inside of the case as well! There used to be a mass of nasty, grimy dirt clogging the phones speaker and that is now completely clean and the phone is running much cooler! Excellent service and good price.
Best repair service in Arlington! The only place Id trust with my devices. Half the price of other locations, completed my repair in an hour, and very knowledgeable. Very thankful this place exists, because otherwise Id be without a functioning phone.
Decided to get my shattered iPhone 7 screen replaced here because of the great reviews but was extremely disappointed. The screen is nowhere near as functional as it was before I got it replaced. It’s frustrating doing simple things like typing or zooming in on pictures. Next time I will just go to Best Buy or the Apple store because it’s not worth saving the money for a low quality replacement.
Went it for a brand new battery my phone and it works like new..reasonable prices as well, highly recommend!
They fixed my phone while I waited. They were quick, very friendly, and reasonably priced.
They repaired my shattered screen on my iPhone 6 in an hour - super easy and works just like new. Would highly recommend in the future!
I’m totally content.
My daughters iphone 5s shattered. tears...30 minutes/$60 later, all better. smiles!thank you so much for great service at a reasonable price!!!!
I chose GB Wireless based on Yelp reviews. My daughters iPhone SE has a shattered screen. It was replaced in about an hour for $60. Im happy and so is she. I like using local businesses.
I used this place three time, good service. good prices, but this is a small business, call ahead, make appointment, they might be out.
I dropped my iPhone 6 and broke both screens, the outer glass and the inner digitizer and was referred to GB Wireless by a friend so I went straight to this location on Colombia pike in Arlington, my phone was fixed within 1 and a half hour. My phone was fixed by Gal Medree for a reasonable fair price and now its like brand new, he did a fantastic job! I Highly recommend this place for any phone problems. Thanks Gal!!
Great professional service. Great price and excellent work!!
They did a through job of fixing my ipod touch generation 4.
Perfect place for phone repair
GB Wireless Cell Phone is the best in Arlington.
