Sony Xperia Phone Repairs
We fix Sony Smartphones & Tablets! Not many people in South Africa purchase Sony Xperia Smartphones & even lesser purchase Sony Xperia Tablets even though the build quality is excellent. Sony did pull the plug with its Consumer Audio Visual (CAV) business unit in South Africa in 2015. They did however keep their gaming & Smartphones as sales in these departments were okay.
Although Sony is an old name is the digital world, their Smartphone sales are not in the top 5 in terms of sales. Sony has tried to keep up with other manufacturers but has sadly not made the amount of sales it hoped for even though their products are good. With less sales comes less broken & damaged devices.

Did your Sony Screen Crack?
Accidents happen all the time & dropping your Sony Smartphone or Tablet is bound to happen. Be it a minor fall from the bed to carpet or from the 1st floor of your office building. Unfortunately when it does you will need a reliable Cellular Repair Shop that will provide fast & professional repairs. The front/top glass or digitizer protects the LCD screen which can individually crack. With the Sony Xperia “top glass” being cracked most of them cannot work unlike Samsungs & Apple iPhones. When the Sony Xperia Smartphone Top Glass breaks only part of the screen will work. At times some can have pixilated lines or no display on the screen. The fix for this is to replace the entire LCD Screen with the touchscreen/digitizer. The Sony Xperia screens come complete which consists of the top glass/digitizer/display screen, so for us to fix it we have to change the complete part.
Sony Xperia X & the Sony Xperia Z series screen replacement are some of the most common Sony screen repair services we fix in our stores. If you are looking for a Sony screen repair service near your home or workplace then come try us out. We at NCC can repair it!
Can you replace a faulty Sony Battery?
Yes we can do it! As with most other Smartphones, Sony have internal batteries that cannot easily be changed by the normal user. This method of battery fitment and design of the Xperia ensures that dust & water does not get into the Smartphones motherboard. A Sony Xperia battery replacement can take between 45 minutes to 2 hours depending on the model you have. Our Sony Xperia battery replacement service begins with a diagnostic to determine if it is the battery that is faulty or a motherboard fault. Over time, as with all batteries manufactured they slowly lose their ability to keep a full charge even though your battery shows 100%. The older your model is the more chance there is of the battery is going bad. This is very noticeable when your Smartphone is under heavy use or if your battery suddenly goes dead at around 20%. We even had some cases where customers complained of the battery going dead at 60%. An easy battery replacement with us Sony Xperia Smartphone will get it back to working at its peak performance. We have both original & high quality generic batteries available for fitment in stock that carries a 6 month warranty.
What to do if you drop your Sony in Water?
f your Sony Xperia Smartphone or Xperia Tablet had a splash with water or any liquid it’s usually splash resistant and won’t cause any damage. If the charging port cover was open or you see it’s behaving unusual the first step is to get it to a Sony repair professional as quickly as possible. Corrosion can build up and damage the internal motherboard & leaving you with few Sony repair options. We can quote for a motherboard replacement but that can be very costly. Why replace when we can repair! We will assess and then run a complete water damage diagnostic to see how bad the damage is. We will do our utmost best to get your Sony Xperia back from its death by water. Forget about the famous bag of rice trick & hoping it works. Bring your Sony Xperia to us & be assured that we will do everything we can. The only way to properly remove the liquid & corrosion is by opening the Smartphone and cleaning the motherboard. In theory, placing it in a bag of rice can remove moisture but unfortunately will not properly remove the liquid or corrosion that is on the motherboard.
Why is my Sony Xperia Speaker not working?
A faulty Sony Xperia Earpiece speaker or Loudspeaker is mostly a hardware fault although on few occasions it can be a software fault. When diagnosing your Loudspeaker or Earpiece speaker fault we first check the phones software to make sure it is not because of a conflict with any downloaded app or maybe a firmware update that was done recently. To reload the firmware is a fast and easier fix where opening your Sony Xperia is not needed. Hardware issues are a bit more time consuming but for our techs with our vast repair experience it’s not difficult. You may need a Sony Xperia speaker replacement done but sometimes simply restarting the Smartphone can fix the issue.
The speaker & loudspeaker are made of a thin material that vibrates when you play music, your phone rings or are on a call. If it’s damaged, it can distort/crackle or can sometimes stop working altogether. Even though there is a net/cover protecting the speaker, tiny metal pieces & dust can lodge into the speaker which damages it. Due to us keeping an assortment of speakers in stock we can replace your Sony Xperia speaker the same day. Contact us or bring it to us for a free quote & we will do our best to get it fixed same day.
Why is my Sony so slow?
Sometimes fixing a slow operating Sony can be as easy as freeing up your storage space on your cellphone. By keeping lots of videos, files & photos on your cellphone it can cause your Smartphone to be lagging & very slow. By deleting them it can speed up your Sony Xperia a lot. 3rd party apps also cause the slowing down your Sony Xperia. By removing apps that are not being used which could be running as “background services” or could be tracking your location when you are not using it can speed up your Sony Xperia and also improve battery life. Even though an app is closed & it’s not in use it will still consume a bit of ram. If after trying this & your Sony is still slow, you can bring it to us for an obligation free quotation. Our techs are always ready to get the best out of your Sony Xperia.
