Is your iPhone's battery running out quickly? Nowadays many smartphones and tablet computers are sealed units with non-removable batteries. This does have its advantages of course - for instance devices can be slimmer as well as be water-resistant. Something that was significantly more difficult to do with a removable battery. That being said, it also has several major disadvantages, one being that it is very difficult to replace a malfunctioning or old battery yourself. Many companies such as Apple and Samsung charge a premium for this service - if they even do it at all. The good news is that We Save Data brings affordable battery replacement services for the iPhone, iPad, MacBook & Samsung Galaxy in Charlotte, Concord, Huntersville, Matthews and the Carolinas from as little as $40!

We are proud to use refurbished or genuine displays as standard for all repairs where possible. You might think this is because we make more money on them - however, that’s not the reason. (In fact, it's quite the opposite; cheap aftermarket copies are popular with many independent repair stores in Charlotte simply because they reduce costs and increase profit margins!). The reason we recommend refurbished screens is, to put simply, because they are of far higher quality and the only type we would want to use ourselves. Should I Care? See for Yourself! Take a look at a recent repair we've carried out which provides a very clear example of the differences. We only recommend to all our clients either genuine or refurbished displays when replacing their screens.

Unfortunately this is a very common problem with the Playstation 5, due to cheap manufacturing and poor quality standards the PS5 is notorious for display problems. If you are only seeing a black screen or "no signal" messages on your TV when you turn your PS5 on, you may have a faulty HDMI port. Here are a few ways to tell if this is the case: If your PS5 turns on and a bright white light comes on the screen, but it doesn't show any picture (This was a common issue known as the white light of death on the PS4). Obvious signs of damage to the HDMI port such as broken pins, bent contacts or missing pins on the inside of the HDMI port itself. A missing, misaligned or crooked HDMI port. No Display – The TV saying “no signal” or “no display detected.” A display signal but it’s pixelated or distorted (it may appear to be "jumping" where picture or sound may show for a second before going again) Picture shows up when moving the HDMI cable around. Common reasons for the PS5 HDMI port going bad include constant disconnecting and reconnecting cables into the port, the PS5 falling over or being moved with an HDMI cable still connected into the console or putting a lot of force or pressure onto the port while attempting to insert a cable into the console. “Remember, HDMI ports going bad are extremely common! Unfortunately chances are if you are reading this, you probably have a bad HDMI port.” The easiest way to test your PlayStation 5 HDMI port is to connect the console to another display that you know works such as another TV or computer monitor (meaning it works with other devices using an HDMI cable output) while using another HDMI cable. If the console turns on, but there is only a black screen, a “no signal” message, or it shows a distorted "jumpy" looking screen, then chances are the your PlayStation 5 has a broken HDMI port or in some rare cases a bad HDMI transmitter control IC.
