Genuine Parts and Warranty
We source genuine Apple parts where available and high-quality compatible parts otherwise. Every part carries the same 3-month warranty. If a repair fails within the warranty period, we fix it free. That is the accountability behind every repair at MicroStar Andy.
When Repair Makes Sense vs Replacement
A good rule: if the repair cost is less than 50% of the machine’s current value, repair makes sense. If the machine is old enough that macOS support is ending, replacement may be the better investment. We give honest advice on both options during the free diagnosis.
Our Repair Process
Step one: free 21-point inspection at Majestic Plaza L5-07, typically completed in 20-30 minutes. Step two: written quote with parts, labour and warranty terms. Step three: repair with your approval, using genuine parts where available. Step four: quality testing before you collect. Step five: 3-month written warranty on all work.
Kampala Repair Reality
Repair prices in Kampala move with parts availability, exchange rates and demand. The General Mac Repairs that costs this much today can change next month. The right approach is simple: get free diagnosis, compare the written quote against replacement value, and decide with real numbers.
Repair timing matters in Kampala. A battery that is ignored drops from 85% to 70% faster than owners expect because of heat and constant mains use. Catching small issues during the free 21-point inspection turns them into simple quotes instead of emergencies. Clients from Kampala who book early consistently pay less and lose less working time than those who wait for total failure.
How the Process Works
Tell us what you need on WhatsApp and we guide the rest. The first step is a free 21-point inspection that produces a written report. From that report you get a clear quote with no hidden charges. Approve the work and we complete it, test it, and hand it back with a 3-month warranty. The whole journey is visible and documented – that is how we have operated since 2004.
What Every Buyer Should Know
Two things matter most in Kampala: a documented inspection and a written warranty. A written warranty means the seller stands behind the machine. An inspection report means you know the true condition before you pay. Any seller who refuses both is a risk. We have offered both, in writing, since 2004.
What a Fair Price Looks Like
Compare written quotes, not verbal ones. A fair price covers genuine parts, real labour, inspection and warranty. An unrealistically cheap quote hides one of those four things. Ask which parts are used and what the warranty covers before you pay.
