Called this young man to get my screen fixed while I was with my family eating poke food at some random Poke Cafe in Carlsbad for an iPhone 7 I believe. The technician luckily was available and able to meet us at the spot we were eating to fix my phone and replace a broken screen. So when it comes to fixing phone screens this guy is super reliable because he'll do it in from his personal vehicle if he can't do it at your location and go to you personally. Thank you again for fixing my phone and this review was supposed to be left way back in 2019, sorry for lagging it. read more

Fixed my phone quickly and they are very fairly priced! I'd go back to them in the future.

My seven year old son's iPad screen broke when he dropped it a few days back. We had a long plane ride coming up and needed it repaired asap. I called Spencer at PhoneMav and he quickly assured me that he would be able to fix it without any problems. Spencer picked up the iPad within 24 hours and had it fixed within 12 hours. Spencer was courteous, knowledgeable, and very easy to work with. If you have any electronics that need repair, you'd be wise to call Spencer at PhoneMav! read more

I highly recommend John and Phone Mav! Everything you could ask for in a company and more! I had 2 iPhones with cracked screens. I spoke with John in the morning, he was able fix both phones by 3:00 that day. He called to say he was on he way arrived during the scheduled window, completed the service within 30 minutes, and was super friendly. What more could you ask for? Oh, and he was more affordable than other companies! Awesome!! read more

Called John Yesterday morning he was ready to do the repair in the afternoon the same day. Quick service reasonable price, And best of all he was efficient and quick. Had a screen for my iPhone 11pro on stock. Thx John. read more

John was great, he came and fixed my phone the same day I called him. The nice thing is he comes to you so if you are busy or don't want to leave home it's perfect. It only took around 15 min to get the new screen, and then I was good to go. I definitely would suggest him for screen repairs! Also I don't know if it's just because my screen was cracked for so long or maybe the lights in it were getting old but the new screen seems so clear and bright it's great! read more

Thanks to John my phone is up as working again:) We found him on Yelp. Called late Saturday night and got a call back Sunday morning. My phone was fixed by noon on Sunday. Nice guy. Give him a call. read more

Phone Mav - Mobile Phone Repair Near Me

I got my iPhone screen repaired last Thursday and ever since my phone has been acting up very strange. It powers off at random, the colors are very off, my camera cannot take pictures or recognize face ID, and my phone has a mind of its own when it comes to texting. I reached out and asked what can be done and I have been ignored after four attempts and now I can tell that my number has been blocked. I am very disappointed and I feel like I wasted $170 to have my front screen repaired to make it only worse than it was before read more

Came and picked up my cracked iPad and fixed it in a day. Good price. Pick up and drop off is a nice convenience. Fast repair and iPad looks great. Definitely recommend! read more

John is a nice guy & the convenience of a mobile repair is amazing, but alas my experience was not 5 star.... 10min before our appointment I text him directions & he called to tell me he didn't have the screen he needed for my repair. I wasn't in a rush so told him we could reschedule for the next day. Next day: 30 minutes after apt time he text omw & arrived 45 min late. After giving him my phone he asks "what's wrong?" Confused at his question since we'd just spoken the night before to rescheduled- I showed him the cracks & missing glass along the top corner. He offered to install a free screen protector afterwards (which I thought a kind offer) & told me to come back in 15-20 min. He was still working so we chatted about the new releases. I explained I was having mine repaired so I could sell it eventually & joked "its a $79 investment in my future". He replied "Is that what I quoted you? I thought I was giving you a discount?" I told him that information would be on the phone he had in parts at the moment... I went back as he was finishing up (43 min after arrival) & appeared to be testing the camera functions. I thought it odd since it was completely dark outside and there wouldn't be a way to see if they worked... He again asked what he was charging? I said "Well you mentioned a discount, so what do you normally charge?" He repeated the question, so I told him I thought it was $79. He replied that it's normally $99 so that is a discounted rate. I knew that was a lie since I had the inital contact quote in my yelp messages which indicates an inconsistency with pricing, but whatever- handed him my cc. Noticed there wasn't a screen protector on & asked if that could be applied. He asked if I really needed one if I was going to sell it. That made me uncomfortable after the pricing situation, but I just mentioned I'd appreciate it since I would be using the phone for awhile. Once back inside the issues started to arise: 1) In a rush to put the screen protector on it was applied so crooked that half the home button & ear piece were covered making it impossible to use without removing it. 2) Side bezel was scratched & dented where he used a tool to remove the old screen (which can be avoided if care is taken to remove the glass). 3) Overcharged. A notification popped up showing a $ 790.11 charge on my cc. Sent John a text about & felt stupid for not looking when I signed the phone. 4) Broken Camera: The screen had a weird greenish-yellow color so pulled up the camera & noticed odd colors. Tried switching to the Front camera & found a black screen. Performed a hard rest & RAM reset- neither fixed it. Knowing the camera cable is easily torn/damaged during repair if not careful, I sent him another text. 5) Broken Mic: Then, I tried to return a call & the person on the other end couldn't hear me even if I tried to use speaker phone. Sent a 3rd text... 6) Screen Sensitivity. Opened a YouTube video and it was stuck in fast forward. Took the case off & discovered that whenever I touched the top of the screen around the white ear piece area the video either went into fast-forward or the youtube settings menu came up. 7) Screen Ghosting: While downloading financial/storage apps removed for the repair I found that anytime I double-clicked the home button to bring the App Store back up the new app ghosted through. Needles to say I quickly regretted my decision to use Phone Mav & became stressed that external repairs voids apple's willingness to fix issues. THE NEXT DAY: 1) I finally got a reply from John the next morning saying he'd refunded the overcharge although the full amount wasn't ever refunded (brining my final total to 81.11) 2) In regards to the broken camera he said he'd tested it and it was working fine after repair.. but offered to come by that evening. 3) Once he was back, I shown him the sensitivity & ghosting issues as well. He just looked at me weird & asked "Why would you ever touch that part of the screen or do that with the apps?" I was completely shocked! No apology for the fact that I couldn't use my phone to make calls, take photos, or put a case on (not to mention the overcharging, tardiness, and temperamental sensetivity issues). Instead, he questions why anyone would have the issues that have arisen in less than 12 hours after his repair? Questioning how someone might use their phone isn't a professional or helpful response to concerns about your parts or repair & doesn't strike feelings confidence regarding its resale. Unfortunately I regret my decision to use Phone Mav but in the end was just thankful my phone didn't become a door stop. read more

John helped me out in a cluch situation when I needed my phone most. He took time out of his own personal schedule to work late and fix my phone. He's fun to talk to and really great at his work. I would have been in a real predicament hadn't he helped me out. I can't believe he didnt even charge me extra and wouldn't accept the extra money I tried to give him. What a stand up professional guy! read more

I had an iphone 12 mini charging issue where my phone wouldnt turn on. I called phone mav and before any payment they helped me solve the issue (was software) by walking me through a hard reset at no charge! Incredibly responsive and excellent customer service. I was thrilled to have this sorted out instantly! Thanks Spencer and Phone Mav team! read more

John was quick to respond, and was flexible enough to still fit in our repair when we didn't call until the afternoon on a Friday - very much appreciated! He also communicated his timeline as he worked to get to us so we could manage our time as we waited. The repair work was convenient, professional and efficient - really couldn't ask for more! read more

Nice guy, good service. It was great that he comes to you to pick up device and repair it in his van. Fast!

I have seen this guy two times in the past six months. Both times he was able to fix my phone within one hour of calling him and he was able to repair my phone at a reasonable and fair price. This man has the most affordable and effective phone repair service I have seen around California I definitely recommend go into the sky anytime you can read more

I'm super happy with this service. My wife was in Carlsbad and her iphone 5s died after months of battery decline. John responded within 30 minutes and drove to our house. He replaced the battery and screen on her phone for under $100 which is what we paid just for the screen to be replaced previously. He also diagnosed an issue with her charger which was causing the problem. Bottom line, my wife was very, very happy with the mobile service, quality repair, price, speed, and advice. read more

thought my iPhone 12 pro was done for. the display was messed up. lept flashing green and black. luckily spencer was able to come out and get it back up snd working (only 3 hours after i called him) read more

Awesome customer service, quick and great quality! John replied within minutes with a quote. He was very quick to respond via yelp message and arrived to my house between the hours that were promised. Yes, that's right. HE GOES TO YOU! I previously dropped my phone and shattered the glass of my iPhone 7 Plus 4 days before and actually got it repaired through another repair shop. The screen was so thick that I was unable to text anything properly on my touch screen. It frustrated me so much that I wanted to purposely throw my phone at a wall. Lol. I then dropped my phone two days later and once again shattered it. What luck right? Lol. That's when I contacted John. I was very pleased with his work. He was able to drive to me, fix it within 15-20 mins and properly fix my screen. Works like it hasn't been dropped a million times. Haha. Thanks again John! I know who to call the next time I'm in San Diego if this ever happens again. I'm sure with the new screen protector and phone case you hooked me up with will definitely help me save money on another repair. *crossing fingers* read more

I cracked my screen today. Went on yelp and asked for a few quotes. John was one of the first to reply. I got a few quotes that was higher and some lower but when John replied he mentioned he was mobile. Scored!!!! Didn't even have to waste my lunch to go get my screen fix. He came right to my work fixed it in 20 mins bam! My phone is like new again, thank you John for your fast and convenient service and especially your competitive pricing. Highly recommended. And your lifetime warranty...that just mean he stand by his work. Highly recommended! read more

Phone Mav - Mobile Phone Repair Near Me

I accidentally dropped my friends phone so we found this place and the homie a couple hours later after we called and he fixed it in like 20 mins! Was 110$. I would use him again:) read more

I called and asked if I could get my I-pad screen replaced. He asked for my address and said he would come pick up my I-pad that night or the next morning. He didn't come that night or the next morning. Five days later he called me and said he was sorry a family emergency came up and if I wanted, he would come tomorrow and pickup my I-pad. I hadn't gone somewhere else yet and gave him the benefit of the doubt. So I told he could come and pick it up tomorrow. Once again he never came and never even called. I don't know how someone so flakey can stay in business. read more

I drop my phone often and I've had to have it repaired quite a few times. This is by far the best experience. I've never broken the glass AND lcd screen so I was glad when he didn't even flinch when he saw my phone. They come to you. Their price is unbeatable. And they have great great screen protectors/ cases (which I bought both of). I won't look for anyone else! read more

My son Ipad screen brook. I called Phone Man and they came fixed it asap. the services and the Quality is excellent. Highly recommended Also Apple Store told me that they only work on IPADs that have apple care and they do not fix screens they just issue you a new IPAD if you have apple care on your brooking Ipad... so Phone MaV is a life saver. read more

Showed up AT MY HOUSE, and fixed my son's iPhone for $100 less than the quote I got in Leucadia. Showed up on time, and took care of business. I hope I don't need him again, but if I do, I will certainly give him another call. read more

Best Mobile Phone repair service I have ever received! Phone Mav was prompt and professional. He had 2 phones repaired to like new condition in under an hour. As a professional Realtor, having an operational phone with a clear glass screen is imperative. I would highly recommend Phone Mav to all of my colleagues, clients, friends and family! Heather- HomeSmart Realty Carlsbad read more

Came to me and fixed within 20 minutes! I'll definitely recommend to friends, family, and coworkers!

Had the most pleasant experience today and thrilled my phone is fixed! Highly recommend if you are ever in need of having your iPhone repaired. My call was answered promptly and I was able to schedule a time immediately- and I didn't even have to drive anywhere. He came to me and fixed my phone in no time. And even threw in a screen protector at no extra charge I was really bummed this morning when I broke my phone, but now I couldn't be any happier and appreciative for the prompt, professional, friendly service I received to have my phone repaired. Not to mention, the price was totally affordable and not overpriced at all. If you need any repairs I recommend you call Mr. John Tully, and he will have it fixed in no time. The process from me calling to set the appointment, to him driving to my location and repairing my phone was all completed in less than one hour. Thank you again so much! I'm so happy to have my phone fixed and working! Thanks for the awesome service! read more

See all

Fast to answer first thing in the morning, and he fir me into his schedule within a couple hours of the call. Great work and very professional. Would definitely recommend! read more

Dude is a life saver!!!! Rolled up to the casa, plopped a seat and went to work! Super personable and friendly. Felt like my childhood neighbor was un-f'ing my phone! You cannot beat mobile service that rivals the Apple store! Prices are reasonable and worth it seeing as I didn't have to drive to La Costa. read more

This review is long over due. My son's phone screen had cracked. The phone slipped out of his hand changing the case. Phone Mav was excellent. We scheduled a time, he sent me text s so that I had a better idea when he would be at my home. He quietly worked on the dinning table. He fixed the screen and ran some diagnostics to make sure the phone was still working properly. I would definitively use his services again. read more

John came to save the day as my friend dropped his phone into a cup of coffee. He came to our rental and fixed it within an hour. He was very thorough and helpful. I highly recommend him if you need any cell phone repairs. read more

John provides an excellent service at a great price! I needed my iPhone 6 screen repaired and John came to my house the same day and had the repair completed in 20 minutes. In my experience with other shops it takes two to three days to get a screen repaired. Not to mention I had a tempered glass screen protector installed with the screen repair all for less than another shop charged for only a new screen! I highly recommend Phone Mav for mobile device repair! read more
