    Gorgeous replacement
    Henry T.

    Stop looking. You found it. I have a bad habit of cracking my iPhone screens and have visited a number of cell phone repair shops in LA and Orange County over the years. Richard has them all beat. I was nervous about getting the back glass replaced on my phone and having just moved to San Diego, was unsure where to go and who to trust. Richard's San Diego Cell Phone Repair has the best and most consistent reviews. FOR GOOD REASON. I had a great impression the second I walked in. He greeted me right away, gave me an eta, quickly wrote out my ticket and I was on my way. It was ready right when he said it was and the replaced glass is beautiful. Something did not seem right when I returned to my car and tried to text my spouse. I panicked and walked back in. Richard was so kind and understanding, started looking at the phone, resolved the issue and even took my number down to follow up with me if there were any additional issues. Needless to say, he definitely knows what he is doing and will take the best care of your device. I really feel indebted to him and I wish I had more devices to get repaired--knowing my luck I will be visiting him real soon. Thank you again, Richard. You really saved me today and I thank you for your professionalism.

    Before photo - dropped my iPhone 8

    I dropped my work phone and that was it. The screen had shattered. Not horribly but bad enough that I knew I had to get it replaced. I searched on Yelp through location and this was the one with availability and great reviews. My fellow Yelpers did not steer me wrong. I was able to make a same day appointment. Joe took me ten minutes early and was super efficient. Fantastic job. Looks like a brand new phone. At least from the front. My phone was a iPhone 8. The replacement screen cost $80. I thought that was reasonable for same day service. I would definitely recommend San Diego Cell Phone Repair. I hope that I never have to see them again ;) But if I needed to get my personal iPhone screen replaced, I would 100% return. Plus they have soft and comfortable couches to sit on while you wait.

There's was this lady there, I don't remember her name I think started with a D. First they say that the color I wanted wasn't in stock even though online it says it is but whatever I'll get another color. We pay monthly to do yearly upgrades so that's what we went in for. Then the girl starts saying we have to pay off what's left of our phones to do the upgrade. I was confused so I said "oh well we pay monthly to do the upgrade so you guys cover what's left and we pay like $100 or something." she said that's not how it works so I was confused but my husband did his since it was only $100 but mine was $600 so I said screw that. The whole time she's trying to get my husband to buy a case, screen protector and charger. We kept telling her no. So as we were leaving I look online and OMG I was right I did my trade in online and paid the usual $100 rather than her trying to scam me to pay $600. Also the phones come with a charger. She was just trying to scam and make more on commission. I did my trade in online AND got the color I wanted. Screw that place, you're better off doing it online!

    Whoa, should've come here to look at the reviews. They're right, this place is horrible!…read more Just terrible service. Don't come here. Came in today to see if they could remove a stripped screw. Said "$35 if we could take it out". $35 for a stripped screw. I respected it regardless and said ok. 45 minutes later told me they couldn't and then showed me an even worse screw. First of all, the technician of the shop didn't talk to me then. It was another employee who couldn't tell much about the result, besides that they couldn't. I had to ask for the tech, and then when he came out, he didn't tell me anything besides that "he tried" and ignored me, looking at his TV or something. I walked away and he sarcastically told me to "have a good day" afterwards. I came back after looking at the device and seeing how badly they messed it up. Told me that they worked for "free" and that I was "bitching" and told me to "get the fuck out of here". Firstly, why would you pay anyone for a failed repair, much less one that made more damage? I understand that he worked for the device to be fixed, but now I have no way to repair this device because of the damage that the technician made. I wanted a fair shake, but instead he cursed me out. I would rate it lower if I could!!
