Very Rude...This guy is very rude, dishonest and inhuman. I had an issue with my charging jack and key board(hardware costs 10+35 =$45). I went to computer world and asked for estimate, the owner said he needs time to give estimate and he said he will call me and tell me the estimate(I know that this is a business trick he is following, once you give your laptop, generally you will go ahead with repair). Next day at 12:15 pm he called me and gave me an estimate of $200($45 parts cost and $145 labor charges). I said I don't want to get it repaired and I will pick up my laptop later. Then he said "I can only give your laptop within 30 mins otherwise you should wait for my next call". I said I might need some time and I will be there by 1:30 PM. Somehow I managed to go there by 12:45 PM. When I went to computer world the owner was free and has no customers. When I asked to return my laptop he denied to given back my laptop and asked me to come back at 1:30. After Little argument I realized that he is VERY RUDE..and will stoop to any level for money. I waited for 45 minutes in parking and picked my laptop at 1:30. It hardly took 30 seconds for him to return, but he made me wait for 45 minutes in this tough time of COVID 19. So be careful with guys like these who are very inhuman and will stoop to any level for money. During these tough times of COVID he argued and made me waited for 45 minutes to just return my laptop which is hardly 30 seconds job. Update after Brian's reply: What a fabricated story you are saying, For charging jack and keyboard does anyone take his old laptop to India and get it repaired....Awesome joke. How many lies do you say.. 1) I was wearing Mask and you were saying I dint, can you prove by posting image from surveillance camera? IF YOU CANNOT PROVE, THEN IT IS EVIDENT THAT YOU ARE SAYING A NICE COOKED UP STORY. 2) I never said I wanted it to repair in India(Its a made up story) 3)You dint even touch my laptop and you are saying you assembled my laptop..great joke Most Important: I am getting some dirty and filthy, abusing messages from different accounts..Please check the images. Look at the professionalism they have and kind of LANGUAGE they are using. Do you guys think this kind of attitude and language acceptable in professional world. End of the day this is all because I dint get my laptop get repaired in their shop. Try to provide better service but don't do these cheap tricks. read more

We purchased 2 MacBook Air while our daughter were at high school 6th and 7th grade recently I believe last Tuesday 104 MacBook Air On Wednesday coffee was a spilled and our second MacBook Air screen was cracked on 15th of last month and we send it to the Apple Store since they are not taking appointments anymore and the estimate of repair on the clock in the scheme of us almost buying another MacBook Air and the one my daughter spelled coffee V decided to tie the local business and instead of shipping to the Apple Store because V knew it's gonna take time also arm and leg repair. My husband why is insisting to maybe it's time to purchase new MacBooks because these computers are almost 10 years old Monday at 10 Am We got our MacBook Air back from the Apple store and decided to not go with the repair and my husband said maybe we can use the part from one MacBook Air to fix the other one and I took both of them are local store repair shop computer world I explained my story and Ryan immediately told me don't be worry about anything we can take care of the whole thing with in a few hours and we have parts for all the MacBooks in stock and I did see tons of MacBooks an IMAC all around the shop The technician open the computer while we were waiting and provided a very reasonable estimate And I consulted with my husband and we decided to fix both of our computers here we dropped off the laptops at 1030 x 1 o'clock in the afternoon both of the computers already and the good news was that my pictures for almost 10 years always recovered from the MacBook like with the smell which according to Apple when we called him last Friday was no hope to get the theater and might cost a fortune. Me and my husband always like to take our cars and electronics to authorized repair places this was the first time we decided to go what our local store and our experience was fantastic I think it's not a bad idea that sometimes we should try local businesses instead of sending everything to the bank companies and pay tons of money. My husband is not working due to cover 19 and Brian told me that I could try to post date a check for one of the MacBook airs that was very helpful Even though this was our first trip to the store. I will always come to this place if I need help with my repairs and spread the good word around. read more

Don't judge the book by its cover. Reviews definitely help, but they can't give you the insight that you truly get by experiencing something yourself. I have always been a fan of big and well known companies, but the recent experiences I had with small businesses twisted a lot of things around. Few months ago, I went to fry's electronic to clean my computer, install protection, purchase a portable external hard drive, and do a few other small things. Out the door, everything cost me nearly $400. The laptop I had was kind of broken and I was afraid my hard drive will fail; therefore, the need for an external one. So I transfer all my data, each and everything to the new hard drive: thousands of pictures, very important documents including statements for medical school admission, recommendation letters by professors, all kind of notes I have had from the 4.5 years of my undergrad so pretty much all my life. It wasn't until 3 months after that the hard drive completely went dead. I went to Fry's. They said it will be a couple hundred to recover the data and if they were unable to, they would have to send it elsewhere to recover all the data which might cost me up to $2000. As frustrated as I was there, I had no any other option, but to either spend that much money or give up. Someone in the store recommended me this place: Computer World Fremont branch in Fremont, CA. At first, I was hesitant, but then I gave it a try. The two men there were very nice and professional. Very competent and knowledgeable in the area of their expertise, they understood everything I said and the position I was in. They recovered all the data and stored it on a loaner hard drive. I was successfully able to transfer everything back to my personal laptop. All this was for $120. Very pleased with their service and I highly recommend it. I am very thankful to the exceptional customer service they provided. read more

Excellent Job how much he had at really reasonable prices. I finally decided to get her a Toshiba laptop which he told me he would install anti virus, as well as some common programs so my daughter would be able to do her homework as soon as I brought it home. I was thrilled I felt like I was getting such a good deal for the price I paid. I went back in the next day expecting that this deal was too good to be true but I was wrong my computer was ready for me to take home and had a one year warranty on it. To top it off he gave me a coupon for $20 off my next trip to his store. It is very rare for me to shop for a item I i don't know very much about and feel good at the end of the trip . I give this place 5 stars and will defiantly be returning soon. how much he had at really reasonable prices.

A friend of mine recommended Computer World as he got his laptop screen fixed by Brian. I jwent to the shop and met Brian, really nice guy, and yes he talks loud but thats him I guess. I mean we have different language accent sometimes, I kind of got that . So my MacBook Pro has power but does not boot so I cant access all my files. He gave me 2 days to provide his diagnostics, so my drive is bad.. He quoted me the cost of repair and I was honest to tell him its too high for me. Brian was nice to ask me how much is my budget and he lowered the cost and we had a deal. We haggle prices to get few bucks, but if somebody will give u a good deal , that's pretty awesome! He replaced my drive & gave back my old drive, fixed my lose screen, installed latest Mac OS Yosemite (awesome!) and gave me a 1 yr warranty (full of awesomeness!) Ohh I have $20 gift card too from the same store, nice !!! This shop has been around for so many years in Fremont, that means Brian knows his stuff and he did explain to me that he tried to make sure he meet customer satisfaction, his taking care of business too. I am one of those satisfied customer! I will definitely recommend Brian with my other friends !!! Thank you Brian for saving my expensive Mac! read more

I visited computer world this weekend for my first time. I was looking for a computer for my daughter for school. I had driven by the store many times but never went in so I figured what the heck I will give it a try. When I walked in I was kindly greeted by a gentleman who I later found out to be the owner. I told him what I was looking for he took me around the store showing me the items he believed would best match what I was looking to get. I was really surprised how much he had at really reasonable prices. I finally decided to get her a Toshiba laptop which he told me he would install anti virus, as well as some common programs so my daughter would be able to do her homework as soon as I brought it home.

You're probably wasting your money going here if you desire anything but a very simple fix. I went here a few months ago because my PC was randomly shutting off and could only enter the Windows blue screen. Paid a little more than $80 to what basically amounted to them reinstalling Windows 10. I bring it home, and the same issues occur. The guy who I spoke to said then it must be a motherboard and power supply issue, and urged me to return them for a new one, and that he would put them into my PC for me for free. This really didn't make sense to me, because a PC literally wouldn't be able to turn on and enter the blue screen unless the motherboard was functioning. So, I decided not to go with his advice and went to a different computer repair place. Once again, literally all they did was reinstall Windows 10, but instead they actually got it to work, and told me that whoever installed it previously didn't do it properly. So, in essence, everyone going to Computer World is getting their devices "fixed" by a supposed expert who doesn't even know how to install Windows. Don't waste your money here like I did. read more

Awesome Job Jobhadn't been to computer world before today. I came because I thought the part where you plug in the charger was broken and heard about computer world from a friend who said it was very affordable. When I walked in I was surprised by how filled up the store was. I was greeted within seconds of walking into the store. I told the employee what I believed was going on with my computer he took a look at it and asked if I brought my charger. I did so he plugged it in, Just as I suspected it didn't work so he grabbed one of there chargers they had in the store that matched my computer we plugged it in and it worked I was so happy to heard it wasn't a much bigger problem and it was quick and easy to fix. I have been to computer shops before that do not take the time to look at a product before they have them dropped off and the products just sit on a shelf for days or weeks at a time. I am very please that wasn't the case today and that it was was quick fix that was cause early in and out in less then 15 minutes. You may message 5 more customers today, and your business may make up to 3 public comments. read more

Terrible. There are a few things one looks for when trying to find a computer repair place: knowledgeable staff, friendly atmosphere, timely service and reasonable prices. California Computer Services has NONE of these. These bumbling idiots know nothing of computers. They have an outside source fixing everything while they collect the cash and pretend that they know a thing or two, when in reality they have the knowledge of a high school best buy employee. They claim to clean your computer from any viruses, but really, there is an Igor like subordinate in the back that simply googles anti virus software and installs it....you can do that yourself! this place is disgusting. I'm not even going to go into detail about how they threatened to sell my computer for parts if i did not come pick it up...(really) These guys cannot be trusted. Stay far away...this is not only the worst "computer repair" place in fremont, it might be the worst computer related store on the enitre planet. I wish yelp had an option for zero stars because one star is truly way too much for these con artists. read more
