Forget Switch! Forget Machines!
Last November, I wanted to replace my aging battery and I was told that because my Face ID camera was faulty, I must fixed the camera and any other issues with the phone before the battery can be replaced. The fix? Replacement of the circuit board which cost RM3k .
My phone finally failed to boot up in May, due to water damage and I brought the phone to Second Life Asia as my last resort to recover the phone. I have put in some conditions; please fix the phone, don't factory reset, safeguard the content, fix my Face ID and replace the battery.
I was really anxious when I was told it will take 5-7 working days to diagnose the issue. Nonetheless, I was given regular updates on the progress.
Six days later, I was informed that my phone was fixed. And I mean actual fixing, where the faulty chips and components were replaced! Which was amazing!
When I picked up my phone, everything was working, even the Face ID. After living 2.5 years without this feature, I finally got it back! All my existing content and data were unaffected. The feeling is as though I received my phone in pristine condition.
The price? One third what Switch and Machines quoted. So worth it!
I am really happy and extremely pleased with the results. I must mention Ms. Kim for fixing the device and demonstrating everything was in working order and the replacement battery is original.
Thank you so much, Ms. Kim, for giving my phone a second chance and a second life.
If you own an Apple device which needs fixing, please give Second Life Asia a chance to diagnose and possibly fix it. You will not be disappointed.
