You can tell the owner has pride in his work and his business. What they do, they do well, and what they can't do, they refer honestly. I went to get my screen fixed. He helped me find out that I had apple care. I got the repair done in the Woodlands Apple Store, and then came straight back to have Sour Apple install a screen protector for me. read more

I dropped my phone and my screen stopped working. I came here and thankfully they had the screen for my phone. They also had a July sale during my transaction. Couple of weeks after the repair, my phone working completely fine, with no additional issues so far. A good repair shop read more

Sour Tech - Front of the building. - Mobile Phone Repair Near Me - College Station, Texas

I wish I would have just gone to Sour Apple Repair in the first place! I tried to repair my cracked screen myself and they bailed me out of my failed replacement. They were professional, easy to talk to, quick, didn't shame me at all, and they did exactly what they said they would do. I will be coming back with any personal technology issues! read more

I paid 600 to get phone fixed stopped working 2 weeks later and there are doing nothing to help or fix and I also paid for warranty !! read more

My husband was unable to get his iPhone to charge and couldn't figure it out, as he is extremely tech savvy. He decided to drop it off to Sour Apple. They took a look at it spotted a small piece of lint in his charging dock. Presto change-o, and he was out with his functioning iPhone after 15 minutes with no charge!! Greatest place in the B/CS area for all devices!! Wouldn't trust any other place in town!! read more

I came here to ask about repairing the charging port on my Samsung Galaxy S7. There was only one guy working at the time, so it was a bit of a wait. It turns out the wait was worth it. He explained that the repair needed is very difficult due to the way the phone is built. He even stated the screen could potentially crack during repair. What he recommended was buying a wireless charger for my phone. I had been without a phone for a week and hadn't remembered or thought of wireless charging. Because of his suggestion, I now have a working phone without paying the cost of an expensive repair. NO other shop we went to in College Station suggested this to me. It saved me from a week of stress and he could have easily just tried to make a sale. I'd rate more stars if I could. read more

These guys are great! Eric opened the door a bit before 10:00 and quickly let me in. I asked how quickly they could change the Bayern in my iPhone 7 and he said one hour. At 11:00 I came back by and $54.00 later had my phone back working like new - much better than buying a new iPhone 11 for $1k! read more

New customer- had to get my camera repaired on a budget. I Picked them because they were the cheapest and price match. They were helpful, straightforward, fast and even gave me a discount!! I'd go back to them every time. Also they install a free glass protector! read more

Zach and the other young men at Sour Apple went far, FAR above and beyond to get my very old 2008 Mac laptop computer working again. I rarely use my laptop and did not want to invest in a new one so I attempted to reformat it myself - mistake! I apparently sent it into some horrible repetitive loop of death. The guys at Sour Apple worked very hard to get the glitchy Mac working again and were able to reformat my hard drive! They were diligent and professional. I appreciated how they kept me posted on their efforts. They never gave up!! Such a pleasure to do business with. Highly, highly recommend! read more

I took in My MacBook on Feb 4th for some water damage. Paid $200 up front ... was told it would take a couple weeks. Two months later - I called to check in and they said there is more things wrong and now it doesn't even turn on. Bad business, bad communication, not trustworthy. read more

Dedicated hard working and a family man is the owner of Sour Apple. He's committed time to be the best at his services and I am proud to support such a business locally. Thank you also for your support in our community! read more

I've been to Sour Apple many times to get my screen replaced and I initially had no problems. I noticed that there were a few lighter spots on my screen and when I asked them about it, they said my battery was pushing against the screen and thus causing the lighter spots. Fast forward a few months, when I got my battery replaced by Apple, the light spots did not go away. I asked the technician what they were and they said that the screen was not calibrated and thus the light spots were dead pixels. I'm extremely disappointed that I was lied to probably because they could not and would not fix the problem. I would be less upset had they charged me less than what the Apple store charges but they charge about the same because they can take advantage of the fact that there is no Apple in town. Beware of this problem! read more

Some of the worst customer service i've ever experienced. i went in this week to get my screen fixed and he seemed very annoyed that i came in. he was so rude for no reason. he told me "don't come back here before two hours, because it won't be done". i ended up leaving because of how rude his customer service came off. i'm happy to take my business elsewhere during this time with local businesses who are happy to help. read more

Excellent customer service and excellent repair work. They've done several of my phones and many of my friends! A+ Would do business with again! read more

They are super friendly, very professional, and have great customer service even over the phone. I have used them for multiple items and the service is always wonderful. read more

My iPhone recently started dropping contacts. People I have known forever, like my brother and his son. I saw this place while turning into the parking lot to go to another business, and decided to run in and see if they could figure out this mystery to me. A young man took a minute and was able to retrieve my "lost" contacts. His explanation was it seemed a recent update made the cloud burp and not all my contacts were visible. They are now that he changed the setting. A wonderful, quick, knowledgeable experience, much better than when I went to Apple store for similar "losses" to my downloaded music. I recommend the service here. read more

I'm a big fan of these peeps. Always on top of the market, communication game is on point. You won't see anyone that works harder or cares more about what they do. Period. read more

Absolutely thrilled to have found this place. I had a (known) problem with my iphone 6 where I couldn't send/receive calls and I had a cracked screen. Taylor greeted me and throughly explained possible causes and fixes and went over what they offered as far as repair. I was so impressed as she was well versed in the hardware configuration and the know-how of resolving it all the way to the logic board. I was fixed and on my way in an hour's time and my phone looked brand new. She knew and handled my situation perfectly! I will be ordering more Apple products in the future and will definitely come here and would love even if they had stuff like diary cases! I won't waste anytime at the Apple store even if they offered a new battery. This place is fantastic, in town, fairly priced including discounts and you can't beat their customer service here. As a person with anxiety about major repairs, searching for the best place to get it done, trust me this is it. The place has a very cool vibe, too! Thanks for helping me out guys and for the peace of mind of knowing where to go next time I have trouble! I'm so grateful for you handling my emergency so well. -Shannon read more

Best quote after shopping around in town and in Brenham for cracked glass screen on iPhone XR. Also get free screen protector (usually $5-20). Quote online says will take 1 hour but it only took 20 minutes. They can do a cheaper price if for whatever reason you can find the glass part cheaper, but after looking at Amazon they are charger $50-70 for labor/replacing. I'm not sure what all goes into the process tho. It was good to know that the part was at least half the cost as opposed to the majority of what I'm paying for was labor. read more

My husband dropped his phone and we looked online for a repair shop. We chose this location based on other yelp reviews. The service was quick and friendly - they had it done in about an hour. The happened to be running a special that day and we saved almost $50 on the new screen. I hope I never need a screen repair again but if I do this is where we will go. read more

My iPad mini had a crack in it that had made it unusable since the touch sensor would malfunction. I took it here since we are in the area, but they didn't have the screen in stock, but they let me leave the iPad there and did not ask for payment until after the repair. I did not receive a call that it was finished, but I checked back the following Monday (turned iPad in on Wednesday), and it was repaired! The home button did not sit properly, but I brought it back an they adjusted it for free!! Great customer service, quick response time, and quality work! read more

Well...it happened. For the first time in 10 years of having a phone I finally cracked my first screen at 6:45 on a Friday night. Not just some little crack either, it was a full blown screen shatter and half of the screen went dark. I had just rendered an extension of my hands completely useless. So I took to google (on my fiancé's phone) to find a screen repair place stat! Sour Apple had great reviews and was still open for 10 more minutes (closed at 7). Problem is, I live 12 minutes away. I called and the angle on the other end of the line said he would still help me even though they were about to close, AND he could have it done in 30-45 min. So I left the house at 6:50 without any mobile GPS to tell me where I was headed. Well, being a college age girl I have absolutely no sense of direction without my phone. I headed to the general area of southwest parkway and Texas Ave. Luckily Siri had survived the fall and I called my angels once more! It gets even better! I had not been home all day and my fur baby needed some fresh air and didn't want to be left at home again. So I ask the angel, upon arrival, if I could bring my fur child in to sit with me while I waited. Answer? Yes! I expected to be there for much longer than I was. I was out in 20 mins tops, got to wait with my dog, after close, on a Friday night! These guys are amazing! Somehow my phone looks better than before and I got a free glass protector out of it! It only cost me $102 (that's including tax). For the rush, customer service, and quality of the repair it 1,000,000,000% worth it! Highly recommend these guys for any phone repair! read more

We brought in an iPad that had suddenly stopped working. The staff, while ultimately helpful, appeared not to be very comfortable with customer service. They mentioned that they were having staffing issues, so I guess these things happen. However, I was pretty annoyed that they never called back when they said they would with an update. It took a long time on hold and then several visits to get an idea of the status. Finally, when they gave up two weeks later, they simply handed it back to me, and didn't come forward with an explanation of what the problem might have been until I pressed them on it. Interestingly as well - when we dropped off the iPad, we did not automatically get a receipt or any kind of claim check. I honestly don't know what kind of security measures they have for watching expensive electronics go in and out of the store, but if there were such controls, it was soon clear I wasn't going to get an explanation from the customer service folks. I ended up asking for a receipt, and after telling me I didn't need one, they printed it out anyway. When I drop off dry cleaning, I get a claim check. I don't know why this seemed to bemuse an establishment that is handling the $800 worth of electronics for which I need repair. It was also interesting that the iPad repair was listed under my wife's name, yet I was able to come in and claim the device without being asked for ID or even presenting the receipt I was given. Again, there might be some kind of controls in place, but other than facial recognition from surreptitious video monitoring or some other kind of covert technology (perhaps thermal imaging for detecting signature baseline levels of annoyance?), it was a mystery to me. I will grant that they appeared to be diligent with trying to fix the problem - they did try out several batches of batteries - but when it became clear that further fixes were probably untenable, it would have been nice to have received a call telling us so. I am fully aware that not all repairs are within the abilities of any repair service (be it Sour Apple or any other place), and I don't necessarily need smiley happy people present at customer service, but I _do_ expect some follow through on promised callbacks and status updates that I don't have to chase down. In sum: these are probably just the folks you need to repair a cracked iPhone screen. If you enter the store intending to tremulously hand over a very expensive electronic device that has suddenly and mysteriously stopped working, you might as well put their number on your contacts list because you will be calling them a lot. read more

The first time I got my screen repaired here, it worked good for a couple of weeks (I paid $150). I was pretty satisfied with it until it started messing up pretty bad and then just finally stopped working completely. I took it back in hopes of getting it fixed for free, they charged me $25. Not too bad, until recently it started being weird again (spazzing out and randomly typing) They put a screen protector on for me right after repairing it for the second time. A few months later I had a few cracks in it & when I took the screen protector off to put a new one on, the cracks were also on my screen. I am beyond frustrated with this place. I don't recommend especially if you are on a college budget. My iPhone 8 Plus is basically ruined. read more

These people are awesome! Reasonably priced and are very nice and helpful. They put on the liquid screen saver that's supposed to be Bullet proof. So fare so good. I highly recommend them! read more

This place ROCKS. No joke. I dropped my iphone 5s in the toilet and thought my life ended. My phone ended up functioning fine but the charger stopped working/ it was charging at an insanely slow rate. I found this place on yelp, kinda hidden in the plaza, and I'll admit, I was hesitant on how legit the place was. I've never gone anywhere except Apple to fix my phone. But SO GLAD I CAME HERE. The girl was super nice and friendly. No hidden charges- to change to charge port was $54 and comes with a lifetime warranty. Nice. I checked around and this seems to be the standard price to change the port, outside of just buying the part yourself and fixing it, but I ain't got time for that. I chilled at the coffee shop next door and they repaired it in about 1.5 hrs. ANYWHO, iPhone repair troubles- GO HERE. read more

Came here to get my front screen fixed. Bit pricey, but they did an excellent job. Also gave me a glass screen protector! Took about an hour to get it fixed read more

I had my iPad's glass replaced. The repair was fast, professional, and at a fair price. My iPad is as good as new -- actually, better, due to the free screen protector. Minus one star because it was originally promised at 4, but wasn't ready until after 7. It's a complicated procedure and would've taken me weeks to order the parts and tools and there's a huge chance of screwing it up, so all issues aside, it's a huge win. My only problem was having to walk into a head shop... err, smoke shop to get the repair, and the hours that they're open. It'd be nice to be able to drop off a device for service or repair in the morning. Have someone to take orders, or some way to drop devices, even if no actual repair is going. Word is that they're going to be adding custom laser engraving for the aluminum cases in the near future, which is awesome. read more

This place is awesome. Super helpful. I didn't even buy anything and they helped me fix my laptop. Very grateful. I'll be back.

They replaced my phone battery and put on a screen cover in record time. I highly recommend them! Thank you!

Got my screen replaced on my iphone X and within 20 day's the screen is slowly starting to totally separate from the phone. tried to take it in today and it will be 140$ on top of the the 120$ i already paid to begin with. DO NOT BRING YOUR ELECTRONICS HERE. you will leave with it worse than you arrived read more

If possible, GET IT DONE BY APPLE. Apple will fix it for cheaper AND better. These guys show up late and have shoddy workmanship. My iPhone 6's replacement screen came off the frame of my phone within a week. Blamed it on their manufacturer they claimed to be A++ OEM iPhone screens. Replacement screen also has a blue tinge to it when it comes to colors. AND contrast has dropped, so all photos look flat. Very disappointed. read more

Hey, they're great, no doubt about it! They always take good care of me. Glad to have them here in B/CS!

I went to Sour Apple Repair in College Station with a problem: I couldn't get my Mac laptop to recognize and sync photos stored on either of two "smart phones." So it wasn't a problem of equipment needing repair, but rather a need for expertise that I lacked. For the record, I am a middle-aged woman, fairly adept with some aspects of things digital, but perpetually confused about how to get different devices to connect and share files. It wasn't clear to me if it was a problem with the phones, the computer, or just me -- or some combination thereof. I went on a Monday morning, and was fortunate to get patient and helpful guidance from Wilber, the staff person on duty. During the hour or so I spent at the shop, I witnessed him interacting with many other customers. Most of them had more straightforward repair-related issues. When someone entered with a phone that needed repair but could be more economically repaired elsewhere (or through phone insurance), he didn't hesitate to point that out. He was consistently kind and helpful to everyone who entered. And all the while, he helped me go step by step through all that I needed to do to get my devices in sync and get access to my photos. All of this convinced me that this is the place I will return to, if I ever have a "classic phone repair" problem. Thank you, Wilber! Sour Apple Repair is a great asset to this community! read more

They fixed my phone after I dropped it and shattered it twice! They are efficient with repairs, and affordable! My phone worked just as well as it did after I had broken it as well. read more

Sorry they sell the off branded apple screens which leak and don't last I've returned the phone 3 times not because it was dropped but it simply started going black and blue ,..why cheap glass cheap parts ,I'd stay away from them if you have apple,it's not their fault because I'm not even sure if you can get real apple parts or not.. read more

Havnt had an experience with a repair store like this one. Dropped my laptop off at their store 17 days ago and they originally told me it would be a week long repair and asked for a down payment. Now 17 days later they have told me they cant fix it and taking my down payment after no progress. Do not take your computers to get fixed here its a straight up scam. DO NOT take your laptop here read more

My mother needed assistance with your Apple iphone. She wears hearing aids so phone support is not always easy for her. With the Apple stores closed because of Covid-19, we were extremely thankful that Sour Apple Repair stepped up to the call for help. They effortlessly assisted her and got her phone working with the hour. They even took time to point out some features that might help her. Great customer service! read more

They did really good with the water damage service but I would not go to them for the OLED screen repair. The screen is a lot more fragile than apple's and does not last. read more

Exceptional customer service. I really like how genuine these guys are. Best to get here early as they seem to get busy as the day progresses. Prompt quality service with the free glass screen. I think they only do Apple phones so Android phone owners beware. Not sure what else to say but go here. I was touched by the personalized service. read more
