Go there! Walk into their store! You'll see immediately that they are knowledgeable, treat you with respect and are honest. I randomly, literally, just spotted them after leaving Apple's Genius Bar on my way home. I was mentally preparing to buy a new computer. Thinking I needed to find an extra thousand dollars. I walked in, was greeted by Will. I asked if he could just give me a second look and he rushed into action. My computer now WORKS. I told him, this was Tuesday, October 28th, he made my day do a complete 180. I don't fault the people at Apple. BUT Apple sells a lot of stuff. A lot of needless stuff. These guys FIX your computer problems. There's nothing more! He solved my thousand dollar problem! And I didn't have to start all over. No lost data. No buying a new computer. No wasted time! Stop in. He's genuine and we need that in this world. Chris J Chicago read more

Computer Prodigies - My fixed MacBook Pro. I can only write this review because of Will! - IT Services & Computer Repair Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Took my phone to get fixed, cracked glass. Within an hour it was fixed. And the value was amazing! I got quoted double in other locations but they seem very honest here. I've sent quite a few people already and they also say they have had great experiences. I highly recommend them and they are honest. read more

Awesome service!! Had my old laptop which was about 10 pounds with tons of stuff in it, they duplicated everything on a smaller laptop-- perfect for traveling and everything is on it!! Love these guys and so quickly! read more

These guys are the absolute best. They also have a store in Oak Lawn IL. Dropped off an older tower that wasn't loading. It took forever to load anything. They got it working like new. Rather than 5 minutes to load a page, it was almost instant. It was well worth the $150 charge for the work they did. Upgraded, installed Windows 11, general maintenance. Tell Justin you selected him from all the great Yelp reviews. HIGHLY recommend. read more

Needed to get my gaming laptop thermal paste redone and have the internals and fan cleaned. Quality of service was top notch. Care was taken to do a great job. Owner clearly knew exactly what he was doing. And price was very reasonable. I'll come back any time I need help with computer or laptop issues. read more

The service I needed was a glass replacement on an IPad. It was done in less than 24 hours. They were the cheapest of the 4 places I called. That''s not the only reason I went with them. I used them because, they were the only one that explained there warranty procedure. It was also the longest.. The other reason is they donate equipment to people in need in the community. Another great perk is the owner hand delivered my IPad back to me in Oak Lawn (he lives 2 miles from my house) since I had to take it to the Archer sine they don't do that work at there Oak Lawn location. read more

I'm so happy Computer Prodigies has a location right here in Oak Lawn! I've been a previous customer at the Chicago location, CP never fails to get my devices diagnosed and repaired in such a timely manner! Not to mention the price is always reasonable! I recently brought in my 2-year-old gaming PC with, what I thought was a PSU problem. Will immediately opened my PC and started a diagnosis, he gave me some guesses as to what the issue was. Honestly, I was worried... Replacing PSU can be simple, but it looked like the problem was beyond that. After a few days Will called me with the official diagnostic, the motherboard had to be replaced. After hearing the estimated cost to repair I swore I misheard, the cost was budget friendly, I thought it would cost way more to fix! After two weeks to the day, my PC was ready to come home! I am so happy that my PC is back, and extremely happy that Will was able to order the exact parts for my PC and fixed everything so fast! Will also showed me a few things on my PC that I didn't know about, like that I had some RBG lights turned off! Will also installed software for my PC and showed me how to maximize its full potential for gaming. I'm so excited to go back to my Sims. As always, thank you CP for always being my go-to place for my PC needs! read more

The sweet man didn't make me feel like an idiot b/c I thought my screen was cracked on my iPhone. He calmly informed me, the tech challenged dummy, that it was only my screen protector that cracked. I didn't even know I had a screen protector. ‍‍‍ He replaced the protector free of charge. I mustered a thank you even though I was so embarrassed. 10/10 read more

My daughters Lap top had been over heating and causing it to work super slow. The wanted over $300 to repair. My sister referred me to Computer Prodigies. The staff was knowledgeable, respectful and super helpful. They cleaned the fan, applied new fresh thermal paste, ran benchmark test. All for only $60 and the lap top is running super fast, in fact my daughter started "it feels like a new laptop". We highly recommend Computer Prodigies for your computer needs. read more

They did an amazing job on my 27inch iMac. It was diagnosed within the hour and I believe it could have been done that day if not for a special part that had to be ordered. The computer was back in my hands in no time and at a very reasonable price from now on I will trust no one but computer prodigies with all of my devices. They have a repeat customer in me. Do your self a favor and get done right the first time. Come here ASAP! read more

These guys are amazing. I've been using them for years and wouldn't go anywhere else. Its hard to find honest people with reasonable prices nowadays, amazing work on all my repairs. In fact I will be going there again today for a macbook repair. A+++ read more

I would highly recommend taking in any computer or device to these guys!! Our PC wasn't turning on and they investigated thoroughly and figured out what was wrong, but because it was a part that we had to return and they didn't actually do the work to fix it, they didn't even charge us anything!! But they were still happy to offer a ton of very useful advice. So knowledgeable and friendly and fair! read more

Justin and his staff and freaking amazing on helping me with an urgent Hard Drive issue. He seemed to be quite busy but said it'll be ready in about two hours! He helped save my files and gave me a replacement drive until my new one comes in this week! That's superior service and total honesty you would never get from a bigger name. I'm actually going to buy a great small budget PC he has for Xmas Sale. Thank again. You all are fantastic! read more

One word, A M A Z I N G! Best place I've been to Chicago by far. Great prices and genuine people! Could you ask for anything better? My MacBook Pro was broken for over five months and no one could figure out what was wrong with it. These guys had it figured out within TWO days. They were honest about what I actually needed and didn't need. Great and reasonable prices. Made me feel comfortable and explained every word and computer issue to the very small detail. Awesome service. My computer is working great and no complaints at all!! Thank you so much, only people I trust with my tech products!! read more

Justin was sweet when I came in to get my phone replaced. He explained to me what he was going to do and it only lasted him 30 min. I didn't feel robbed like the other place I went before Computer Prodigies and my phone is working just as new! read more

Why bother going anywhere else? After going through hell for 3 months (YES 3 MONTHS) with another computer repair shop, Computer Prodigies saved the day. Took my computer in, spoke with the owner Justin, told him what was going on and what the other technician had told me, & within a week my PC was up and running. Long story short the other technician was BSing me on and on and on with what was wrong and according to Justin everything that the other technician told me was wrong and everything was still in working order. My motherboard was still working. My RAM sticks were still good. Justin and his guys looked over my PC and within a couple hours told me what was wrong with it. I bought a new processor, they installed it and the rest was history. If i could have known about these guys 3 months ago i would have just came here. Don't bother going anywhere else Computer Prodigies hands down is the place to go. read more

Justin always knows what he is doing !! HE IS LEGIT AND IS VERY WISE !! I will forever come back to computer prodigies whenever I need help! Thanks Justin!! read more

These guys are FANTASTIC! I had purchased a new laptop for my dj biz & lost my patience with tweeking out Windows 10. Brought it to the folks at Computer Prodigies. Was greeted with a smile & a handshake. Explained what I wanted & why. Was told "not a problem & it would probably be ready tomorrow". Guess what? IT WAS! They did exactly what I wanted & my new laptop is running smoothly. I am REALLY happy & plan on bringing them my original dj laptop that has been a little wonky. THANK YOU guys! read more

I use my laptop for work, to game, and just about everything in between. I brought in my Asus ROG with none functional number keys, none responsive software, a screen that would not turn on, and a laptop that would not turn off. Four days and a very reasonable fee later and here I am writing what I hope is an awesome review! P.S. They even optimized my system for me. Running smoother and faster than ever! read more

I rarely give out five stars. But these guys fixed my iPhone, shattered screen, on the spot, as advertised. Thirty Minutes and $100 later, I'm back on the road and my iPhone 6 is good as new. The guys in the shop were super-friendly, helpful and easy to deal with. Highly recommended. read more

The people in the store were super helpful. Friendly and nice people that's got the job done quick. Would definitely recommend for anyone with electronic problems. 10/10 read more

Messaged to ask could they fix a broken screen on an iPhone 5. Came in around 6:40, was out by 6:55 - got the broken screen fixed AND glass protector put on as well for an AMAZING value! read more

My brother gave me a iPhone 6s with a broken camera and a battery that died within a hour. But I went to computer prodigies and Justin replaced my phone with a new camera and battery bringing my broken iPhone to a new life. Thanks Justin! I was able to chill at the library across the street while my phone was under repair. Will definitely go back for all my broken electronic needs. read more

My good ol' desktop PC was done. It had a great run for almost a decade, but it was time to move on...so I decided to put together my own desktop Gaming PC Build that could handle my artistic workload. I did the research and came up with a high-end beast. Initial Build: CPU: AMD RYZEN 7 1700 3.0 GHz AIO: EVGA CLC 280 MOBO: ASUS ROG STRIX x370-F Gaming GPU: EVGA GTX 1080 Ti RAM: Kingston HyperX FURY 32GB (2x16) DDR4-2666 SSD: Samsung 960 500GB HDD: Seagate 1 TB CASE: Phanteks Enthoo Pro PSU: EVGA SuperNOVA GQ 850W ODD: ASUS 24x SATA I took my time and was methodical building it. However, when the final moment came to install Windows 10, I got the dreaded multiple blue screens of death (and other random errors: missing drivers, hardware issues, rebooted a thousand times, etc...). MICROSOFT and ASUS tech support wasn't very helpful - pointed fingers at each other. I tried several alternative methods for installing Windows 10 and none of them got me that much further. Loosing time/patience, (and not having other components to help troubleshoot), I didn't want to be stuck with a $2000+ brick. So I scoured for a reputable computer repair service. Enter Computer Prodigies, conveniently located for me in my neighborhood on the south-side, near Curie HS. They're a family-owned business and in talking to them (brothers Justin & William) discovered they were on the same page as me with the way I'd trouble-shoot. Their pricing was also very affordable. Once I dropped off my PC Build, they kept me posted daily. Their openness and transparency was very refreshing as they did all they could to narrow down the issue. It turned out to be a motherboard/processor problem. Not at all what I wanted to hear, but after testing all other possibilities it was the most likely issue. I quickly returned/exchanged both components at Microcenter in Westmont -- thankful to the manager there for making that painless -- and brought the new parts back for CS to install. They continued to stay in touch daily and made positively sure that my PC Build was all good and running smoothly before returning for the final pick up. They texted me pics and continuous status updates and never made me feel intrusive when I called them; very easy-going and honest. Thankfully, the new components resolved the problem and I finally had my PC Build returned to me up-and-running! Final Build: CPU: AMD RYZEN 7 1700X 3.4 GHz AIO: EVGA CLC 280 MOBO: AORUS GA-AX370-Gaming K7 GPU: EVGA GTX 1080 Ti RAM: Kingston HyperX FURY 32GB (2x16) DDR4-2666 SSD: Samsung 960 500GB HDD: Seagate 1 TB CASE: Phanteks Enthoo Pro PSU: EVGA SuperNOVA GQ 850W ODD: ASUS 24x SAT Their uncle Anthony was even there to help me lug it back to my car. I can't recommend Computer Prodigies highly enough - such a cool family. They maintained a high level of professionalism along with a laid-back level of comradery and humbleness. I plan on keeping them in my cell for emergencies and recommendations. read more

The staff here are really on their game. Not only do they know there stuff, but they are darn good people too. I always enjoy a pleasant conversation every time I am there and have had plenty of good service for my cell phones, laptops and desktop. read more

They did a great job for me. I had a problem with updates on windows 8.1 ( among many other problems) They cleaned it up, got my updates fixed and installed window 10 for me and I was charged the price I was quoted. I would give you 6 stars if I could. I'll be back. read more

Excellent Service. Glad I found this spot so close to home. They serviced my iMac when no one else would. They specialize in APPLE Products which are the only products I buy. Believe it or not, Apple Stores DO NOT service any device older than 3 years! Sad but true. But Thanks to Computer Prodigies, my 2010 iMac now runs LIKE NEW!!! Yes I said 2010! Almost 10 years old and the thing is a power beast! I would Highly recommend this place. read more

Excellent service! I had an issue with my iPhone XR. I couldn't hear people during a phone call. They always sounded muffle, like if I had the volume set to a low setting which I did not. Came here and they fix it in 30min. Will be definitely be coming here for future issues :) read more

I would definitely recommend them for all your computer needs. Great customer service!! They are helpful and very understanding. My computer broke down and needed it fixed right away. They explained everything to me and gave options that were very reasonable and the turn around time was quick. I even took my son's computer in which had not been used for a couple of years and turned out that it was only the charger. We were told previously that the computer had battery issues which was not the case. They saved us money on both occasions. High five to them!! read more

Came here to fix my niece's cracked iPhone screen, expecting to pay an arm and a leg, but was pleasantly surprised by their prices. The phone was repaired in less than 45 minutes and not only that, the owner went the extra mile and put on an extra screen protector on the phone. The shop is very clean and professional. I couldn't have found a better place. read more

I went to this place about a year ago when my 4 year old Dell Studio 1555 would not turn on. Justin was the one who attended to me. The main reason I took it there was because this was the only place I found that offered free diagnostics. I wanted to figure out if it was worth getting this laptop fixed or just buy a new one. Obviously, that was going to be a difficult decision without actually getting it looked at. Justin was a practical man and knew consumers' attitude towards getting computers fixed. He took the laptop, gave me a holding receipt and told me he would call me later that evening or the following day with details about the issue. As promised, he called me later that evening and told me my motherboard was bust. He was very transparent in terms of what's required and what's not and did not recommend any unnecessary services. He said he did not have the part, but would order it if I decided to go along with the service - turn around time was going to be 2 days. I decided to go ahead. Two days later, I get a call that the laptop was ready to be picked up!! Very prompt service... He charged me $150 for parts and labor and was transparent about the breakout. He said the motherboard was ~$110 and $50 labor. He also gave me a $10 discount (though I don't remember what that was for). He also offered a 1 year warranty on the service though I haven't had the need to use it. Its been about a year since the service and my laptop is still running alright! He performed some general tune-up to ensure my laptop didn't have unnecessary crap. Overall, I am an extremely satisfied customer and have recommended this place to quite a few of my friends. I do have to apologize to Justin for writing this review a year after the service, but better late than never. Another interesting piece of information is Justin conducts various food & donation drives for local charities - very rare that you find a small business giving back to the community...kudos to Justin & his team. If you need a computer repair, this is the place to go!! read more

I just had Justin replace the hard drive in my Touch Screen Computer. He gave me a free diagnostic within 24 hours and the entire job (including ordering the part) was completed in 2 days! I have complete faith in his word and his skills and could not be happier. I will be recommending him to everyone! Michelle read more

Have a pretty old Dell desktop that was infected with a virus. Brought it in and Justin was most helpful and very friendly. He told me they could fix it, clean it up and install Microsoft 10 and update other software. He called me a couple of days later to tell me the cost, which by the way was very reasonable and said it would be ready in a couple of days! Brought it home,set it up and WOW!!! I feel like I have a brand new computer! These guys are awesome! The shop was spotless and I would totally come back for any repairs I may need on anything!!! Thanks, Justin and everyone there!!!! read more

This is an excellent shop for your computing needs. I took on a project to help my son build a gaming computer, I had to go to them to help us TWICE ! Each time they were very patient and unpretentious about addressing my issues and gave great recommendation on next steps! I will definitely return with my computer needs. read more

Older Iphone, cracked screen, great price, lickity split repair... Like New!

I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for small or big jobs. I came in a few weeks ago with an emergency. I needed a new program installed to take a required certification test for an employer on that day. I wasn't sure if they would be able to help me, considering my computer already had other issues and I spent hours trying to install the program myself. Computer Prodigies were able to download the program so fast I even had time to shop for a new mouse. Big thanks for your help!!! read more
