Cell Phone Repair Service in Hawaii

Cell Phone Repair Service in Hawaii:
Save Money on your Monthly Smartphone Bill!


Cell phones” are now sophisticated handheld computers that act as our personal assistants and not just portable telephones (if you are interested in how they evolved see: From Telephone to Smartphone: A Long Way in a Short Time!). They cost $600-900 new but because their costs are subsidized by the service providers they are “hidden” in our monthly bills and “affordable” new devices (typically $200) are used as an enticement to sign expensive service contracts. Regardless of what they are called, these contracts include significant cost and financing fees for our new smartphones that are billed as monthly service charges. They are equivalent to leasing an automobile and exchanging it for a new one every two years. While this system has its advantages, it is also the most expensive for us and possibly the most profitable for the service providers. Insurance fees just add more hidden expenses and we still end up paying a significant deductible if we have to use our insurance, not to mention the hassle of trying to make a claim! (See also: Cell Phone Insurance?) All this adds up to a big bill each month!

Today’s smartphones are reliable and can take some abuse before they stop working. In fact, they are so dependable that we take them for granted and are always surprised and dismayed when they break. Unfortunately, most of us are still naïve and confused about what to do next when it happens to us. We have been conditioned to think that our only choice is to go back to the dealer or service provider and trade our broken device for a new replacement, typically at substantial cost and inconvenience and ultimately with the requirement of signing a new expensive “lease”. We wouldn’t trade in our car every time it has a problem but we don’t mind doing it with our smartphones because we see it as our only option or we think it is our “best” option. It’s time for us to become better informed and to think this through again!

The current system evolved because there was no such thing as Cell Phone Repair Service in Hawaii or anywhere else. Cell phones began as “throw-away” devices and we all accepted that, especially since every new model added revolutionary features like MP3 players, cameras and higher resolution displays. Today, however, when “retina” displays, HD video cameras, MP3 players and many other features come standard on most of our smartphones, automatically upgrading them to the newest model may not be the best choice. Now that quality repair service is available in Hawaii, we have other options.

The professionals at MobileREMEDIES® Cellphone/electronic repair can almost always repair or refurbish your smartphone, restore your data and give you a warranty on parts and labor, all for a fraction of the cost of a new device. It is hassle-free and can often be done while you wait or run a short errand! They can also offer you a refurbished smartphone upgrade of your choosing at a significant savings and still provide you with a 1-year warranty that is identical to the manufacturer’s warranty on a new device. All of this is independent of any service contract and requires no new commitment of any kind. In other words, your service provider has no leverage to make you sign a new contract and suddenly you have the power to negotiate monthly fees. BYOD pricing (“Bring Your Own Device”), with or without a contract, is now available to savvy smartphone users from all major service providers and can generate significant monthly savings. Over a typical 2-year contract period, these savings add up and can put hundreds of dollars back in your pocket!
