I came here looking for a difficult repair - a firmware issue that was disabling the fans in my laptop. They took the time necessary to manage my issue, and I was even able to bring my laptop back after I paid for the initial service free of charge. This is a family owned business, and it shows with their dedicated care. I recommend this repair shop. read more

Super friendly fast service (and the store cat is a bonus!). This is based on the six total times I've had to have my iPhone 11 Pro Max screen replaced here over the past two years (the last two times were NOT my fault!). Highly recommend! read more

Robot Shark - Data Recovery Near Me - Gilroy, California

I did go twice to the shop and he never completely fixed the problem. All of the other explanation is fabricated. Why would I continue to pay him if never fixed the problem in the first place. Yes the microphone fixed the problem but caused another. Sorry but not a good solution. Still don't see why he has best business awards. I would consider it a fix if my microphone worked both ways. Also, you said to call you at 5 pm because you were not sure if you would be back. I called and no answer so I left a message. Did not get any response to my call. This is a big misunderstanding. I don't think it unreasonable to expect to be able to use my computer after I paid to have it fixed. read more

Took a old computer had it updated, Also took a new computer in Set up and tune up $300.00 Good price ? Maybe yes, Maybe No ! read more

Good pricing. Excellent customer service! They respond fast and are happy to answer questions and are very welcoming. I needed service with my desktop because I had an issue with my GPU and they found the solution same day. They were also kind enough to update my systems that I forgot to update! (Free of charge) They knew my desktop was very high end but didn't try to charge more because of it and that's something other repair shops have done. Honest and genuine they are! 10/10 would send my friends and family here and I love the fact they have a cat too. read more

I run a small plumbing business, and tech stuff has never really been my thing. I brought in Robot Shark for IT support, and honestly, it's been a game changer. They've helped me sort out things I didn't even realize were issues--slow computers, email problems, stuff just not syncing right. What I really appreciate is how easy they are to work with. No confusing jargon, no upselling--just solid support and straight answers. Whenever something goes wrong (which used to stress me out), I just call or message them, and it actually gets handled--quickly. It's one less thing I have to worry about, which means I can focus more on my crew and my customers. If you're a small business owner and tired of dealing with tech headaches, I'd definitely recommend giving them a shot. read more

Location was easy to find, very unkept which made me nervous. But they did the job at a reasonable price and quickly, therefore I am happy.

Stole my brother's ps4 hard drive when all he wanted was the hdmi port fixed. Still demanded payment even tho he still couldn't fix it.

I called Marco to ask about transferring files from one computer to another. He answered all my questions and didn't make me feel silly for answering them. When we came in we also asked advice on new cell phones and laptops. We ended up buying a used laptop and had some software added. He called early the next day to let us know it was r a day to be picked up. We weren't charged until we picked it up. We have now found our new computer guys! read more

I forget the man's name so I apologize, but he fixed my iPhone 11 Pros cracked screen, I dropped a barbell on it and called him and was told to bring it in after 1pm. Very kind and knowledgeable and did a wonderful job and I was very pleased with how fast he was, he did it in a hour. Thank you and I'll continue to bring my electronics there cause he understands business and seemed like a great person. read more

Fortunately these guys are great at what they do and we have always left as happy customers. They are very capable and knowledgeable, and provide high quality service at fair prices. read more

My laptop charger tip broke off inside the charging port of my laptop. Robot Shark was responsive, from my original email quote request to my visit at the shop. The pricing was more than reasonable, my laptop was serviced and back in shape within an hour or so. Relieved and happy with my experience here and Mr. Marco Escobar. Waiting area is very chill and enjoyable. Will definitely recommend and use Robot Shark moving forward. read more

Robot Shark - Data Recovery Near Me - Gilroy, California

I took my newer Macbook Pro Touchbar here because I had spilled a water bottle on it. Everyone I called offered me a crazy price to replace my logic board and said I would loose my data. Robot Shark said they could attempt to repair my logic board and keep my data. If they weren't successful it would be a small diagnostic fee. After a little over a week they got my logic board up and running and all my data was still there. I' relieved and happy with my experience. read more

Repaired the screen on my iPhone XR and also cleaned the charging port all within 30 minutes! Very communicative with the service provided and satisfied with the results as it's back in top shape. Also got to meet the shop's cat - Sharky lol, definitely recommend this place for iPhone fixes. Thanks again for taking care of my phone! read more

Marco and Tolio are great! They are both very knowledgeable and helpful. Marco will reply to you even when he's out of the country. Now that is customer service! Robot Shark is our go to for tech support, purchasing computers, repairs and accessories. They are bilingual too. Marco has done screen sharing with me for tech support, so I don't have to leave my office. My iPad screen was broken and The guys were also able to fix this issue for me. My company and I are very happy to use Robot Shark's services. Thank you guys for all your help. =) read more

I would highly recommend this business. From the beginning I requested a quote they got back to me within minutes. The repair was fast not only that they provided us with a loaner computer! That to me is 5 stars in my book! read more

I went back to this location after they changed my screen and noticed the screen was getting hot and flickering. I asked the owner if he could please replace the screen and he asked that I leave my phone so they could do a diagnostic. After I told him I just wanted the screen replaced he got upset. And really had a bad attitude I will never go there again read more

Marco has fixed my computers for years. My daughter cracked her cell phone screen and Robot Shark got it fixed like new in no time. I have been and will continue to be a loyal customer. Great local business. read more

This guy was amazing. Absolutely recommend. Replaced by laptop screen in a timely and effective manner. Had great communication.

They did a great job on my I6 and completed in one hour as promised. They also have great deals on cases. I am going back to buy another. read more

I was very pleasantly surprised by the honesty and work ethic of this business. I took my son's iPhone 7 to Robot Shark to have the charger port replaced. The cellphone was not charging at all. When we went back in to pick it up the owner said that it worked with the charger cord and showed us a little trick. He said it was better not to break the factory seal if it wasn't necessary. And he didn't charge us anything! Wow! We would not have questioned him at all if he had changed the charging port and he would have made the $$ from the sale. Instead, he chose to tell us how to make it work. I think this is very rare in this day and age where a lot of people are just out to make the money regardless of an actual need their customers might have. I was further surprised that this wonderful business was not listed on YELP. I'm hoping that people actually read this review and get encouraged to take their business here. You won't regret it! You will actually get a true diagnosis! It's located in the downtown area on Monterey Road in Gilroy. We shopped at the Outlet stores while we waited. I have faith that these good people will continue to do honest business. The sad thing is I didn't get the owners name. I think I was so impressed with his honesty that I just floated out of there without asking. I plan to take any computer or cellphone problem to Robot Shark. Thank you Sir for your honesty!!! It is greatly appreciated!! read more

It was a pleasure to get my phone serviced at Robot Shark Phone Repair Shop. Marco was pleasant and professional, and the repair was handled fast and effectively. The replacement screen is of exceptional quality, and my phone now looks brand new. In comparison to other repair shops in the neighborhood, the price was likewise fairly inexpensive. read more

Robot Shark was great! They fixed my iPhone 6S Plus cracked phone in less than 25 minutes at a very reasonable rate of $89.00 with OEM parts! In fact, I am writing this review on it now. Thus, put yourself at ease with having Robot Shark repair your cracked screen. They have done like over a 1,000 repairs so they know what they are doing. Don't be a cheap ass and get those stupid self repair kits because it will only frustrate you and end up looking ghetto. Besides, during your repair you can walk around the nice downtown Gilroy area while your phone is being repaired! read more

Well....after my smug "I can fix it myself" moments when I figured I was as smart as any computer person and could fix my own laptop myself and ended up with a laptop that not only wasn't closing all the way (oops....) but also the fans was funky I figured I needed help after all. Checked on yelp and reviews on here were great so I walked over to Robot Shark and Marco was amazing and helpful with the whole process....and especially tolerant with my constant messaging to see if it was done yet (haha sorry I just missed my laptop!!!). But all in all thank you so much for fixing my laptop! If you're looking for a good place for reliable, reasonable laptop repairs stop by Robot Shark! I will definitely be brining my items back here again if I ever need things to be fixed again....and will not be trying to fix them myself...ever...again. read more

Scared, angry, in shock, dismayed, dizzy, could not sleep, anxious and a BIG OMG when my PRIV BlackBerry got wet in Cancun, Mexico in June 2016. I always believed myself to be very organized, detailed, and careful with expensive items such as computers, medical equipment, and mobile phones. However a few weeks ago in Mid June, I was enjoying a perfect stroll on Cancun's powder white beaches. The waves crashes gently on the seashore with a crystal blue ocean just behind each wave. The kids frolicked in the ocean while my wife and I strolled along the seashore absorbing UV rays to improve our tan. I stepped onto a sand dune that was covered with potato bag-like material. I walked ever so gently to make sure not to slip since the material looked somewhat slippery due to the greenish shine that covered this dune. I placed my BlackBerry Priv in my shorts back pocket because I wanted to be responsible. I had to step over one person, a young 20-something gal soaking in sun rays. My wife stood still on the sand. I am sure she knew what was going to happen next. In a split second my feet slipped and my 11 inch Nike sneakers were moving up toward the sky, while my head stretched far back until my feet and head were both parallel in the air. In another split second, my skinny butt hit the sand dune surrounded by crystal clear Cancun blue water and my head smacked down hard on the hard, wet, sand. I stayed down for about 5 seconds because I thought I cracked my skull open. Yes, I landed that hard. As soon as I got up I felt my back pocket to make sure my BlackBerry was ok. Of course, I cared more about the damn phone than my health. Wouldn't you know it, the phone turned off because I sat right on it when I landed. I turned on the phone because I only saw a tiny bit of water around the screen. Well, dumb idea. The phone went into cardiac arrest. The screen flickered, the buttons would not turn off the phone, the phone made weird alien noised. Finally, after a few minutes I turned the phone off. Then I finally came back to reality and heard my wife say "Honey are you ok?" Several other had swam toward me asked "hey are you ok, that was a hard fall!" My senses came back to me and I looked around at 5 people and said, "thank you, all is good." My wife, busted out in a laugh so deep and said, "That is what you get for checking out that hoochie in the cute bikini." I looked right next to where I fell, and sure enough, there she was, a tiny clad bikini about 20 something, just smiling. Yes, that's what I get. I placed my phone in a zip lock bad with rice for 3 days. Good thing I did. Screen did not turn on, but I did hear my phone trying to dial when I pressed on the screen. I also hear my favorite fame turn on when I touched the touch screen. Clash Royal music was so awesome to hear. I found Marco and Robo-Shark in Gilroy, CA on a Yelp search. I have to say I love Marco because he answered my phone call and invited me to visit with him in his modest shop. So, I drove to see Marco. I told him my phone was wet, placed in rice with ziplock, and now I am praying he can save my baby. He said, "I cannot promise that I can save the data, contacts, photos, videos, because the phone was wet, but I will try." He said, don't worry, let me check it out." A young girl and her mother stood next to me playing with her laptop which fell in a swimming pool. Marco got her computer to work, so I had high hopes. Left my phone for 2 days, Marco called me on July 2 and asked me to come pick up the phone on July 3rd. I thought about my Priv during 4th of July pre-weekend. July 3rd rolls around, so I was impatient all morning because I wanted to arrive in time to meet up with my sweetheart, PRIV by BlackBerry. I walked in, said, "Hi Marco, what you go?" He said with a smile, "check it out." Oh man, I turned on my phone, saw the BlackBerry Android sign in, heard sounds, and fell in love all over again. My phone worked, data intact, games intact, pictures, files, videos all intact. I highly recommend Marco and Robo-Shark. Marco, will do his best. Disclaimer: Not all wet phones can be brought back to life, but give Marco a try. He is a second opinion center who has awesomeness in his skill set. PS. I bought an Apple Air 2 from Marco. So cool! Great price and refurbished by the master. read more

They are so helpful and they just know all the in and outs. Saved me a few times! I'm so grateful we have them locally!

Cool place. Friendly staff and cozy right smack dab in the middle of downtown. Marco took my iphone 6 with a broken screen and fixed it right up hella fast.
