How To Handle Laptop Repairs

January 24, 2014

These days everybody makes Laptops. Well, not everybody, but there are a lot of manufacturers. Apple through to Zenith (are they still around?) will sell you a Laptop. And everybody has a Laptop. Again, maybe not everybody, but I bet you do!

 

Clearly Laptop prices have dropped over the years, but there is still a large market for high end Laptops and, when they break, these need to be repaired. So, what’s the best way to handle Laptop repairs?

 

Sending a broken Laptop back to the manufacturer is one option, even if the warranty has expired. They have the parts and the expertise, but they normally charge a premium for repairs. And, even if the Laptop is still under warranty, they tend to be very picky about what’s covered by the warranty. Laptops screens often fail and they are not typically covered.

 

Another option is use a third party repair depot. Here at Mercom we have almost 20 years experience of repairing different types of Laptops – Remember the old Compaq luggable computers? We fixed them!


This experience includes repairing whole units, main boards, power supplies and screens from just about any manufacturer you can name. Our modern depot allows us to handle volume repairs and we offer a comprehensive six month warranty and 3 way shipping.

Zebra scanners, mobile computers, and printers play a key role in retail, logistics, warehousing, transportation, and fulfillment operations. From scanning inventory and tracking shipments to printing labels and supporting real-time workflows, Zebra devices help to keep daily operations moving. But even rugged Zebra hardware is not immune to wear and tear. Broken screens, failed scan engines, Wi-Fi issues, damaged triggers, and cracked casings can quickly slow teams down. For companies operating across multiple locations, failed scanners can create more than a minor inconvenience. It can delay orders, disrupt workflows, and increase pressure on already busy IT teams. That is why having a reliable third-party repair partner is so important. Mercom helps organizations repair, maintain, and extend the life of their Zebra hardware, keeping devices in service longer and reducing the need for costly replacements.
