Every Mac repair at MicroStar Andy starts the same way: a free 21-point inspection that tells you exactly what is wrong, followed by a written quote before any work begins. No guesswork, no surprise costs, no pressure. That is how we have served Kampala since 2004.
What the 21-Point Inspection Covers
Battery health and cycle count, screen uniformity and TrueTone, all ports tested with real devices, keyboard and trackpad function, speaker and microphone, webcam, charging system, storage health, thermal performance under load, macOS stability, and physical condition assessment. The full report is shown to you in writing.
| Service | What It Covers | Warranty |
|---|---|---|
| 21-point inspection | Full hardware diagnostic | Written report |
| Software repair | macOS reinstall, optimisation | 3 months |
| Hardware repair | Keyboard, trackpad, charging port | 3 months, genuine parts |
| Data recovery | Drive diagnostics, file extraction | Quote before work |
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
Kampala has no shortage of Mac technicians, but few offer what matters after the repair: genuine parts, a documented 21-point inspection, and a written 3-month warranty. General Mac Repairs in Kampala should always come with those three things, and only a written quote guarantees them.
We see the same pattern weekly in Kampala: the machine that “keeps working” turns into an urgent case on the exact day a deadline hits. Diagnostic equipment reads the warning signs long before that. That is why the 21-point check exists and why it is free. Come in when the first sign appears and the fix is quick, cheap and covered by warranty. Leave it and the bill grows with the delay.
How the Process Works
Start with a message or a visit. We listen to the problem, run the free 21-point inspection, and give you a written report and quote. There is no obligation to proceed. If you agree, the repair or purchase is finished properly, tested, and covered by our 3-month warranty. Every step is explained to you first, so the process is never a mystery.
Simple Ways to Save
You can lower the real cost of a Mac in Kampala. Trade in the device you own now. Ask about student offers with a valid ID. Buy when new stock arrives. Keep the machine clean and updated so it serves you longer. Small choices add up to real savings over time.
When to Act Fast
Some signs should not wait. A swollen battery, a fan that never stops, sudden shutdowns, or a screen with lines all need a professional look within days. Early diagnosis is cheaper and safer. Book the free 21-point inspection as soon as you notice any of these.

Before You Visit
Back up your data. Note the exact problem and when it started. Bring the charger and receipt if you have them. Share details on WhatsApp first so we can plan. These steps make the diagnosis faster and cheaper.
What You Pay For
You pay for genuine parts, real labour, the diagnostic report and the warranty. A suspiciously cheap quote misses one of these four. Ask what each quote includes before you agree to any repair.
