Quick Answer
MacBook repair in Dubai starts at AED 590 for a battery, AED 780 for a screen, and AED 1,040 for component-level logic board repair. iMac screens start at AED 1,040; Mac mini, Studio and Pro repairs from AED 910. Every job includes a free diagnosis, a fixed written quote before work, a written warranty (12 months on most repairs), and free pickup and delivery across Dubai — with no-fix-no-charge if we can't save it.
Most repair shops hide the price until your Mac is already on the bench. We don't. Below is a clear starting price for every MacBook, iMac, Mac mini, Studio, and Mac Pro repair we do, plus the timeline and warranty for each. You'll know roughly where you stand before you even message us — and you'll get a fixed written quote before any work begins.
→ Want your exact price? Send your model and the fault to MacTech Pro — free diagnosis.
Walk in or send a WhatsApp. The technician opens the device and finds the real fault — no charge, even if you take your Mac and walk away.
You get the final price in writing, on WhatsApp, before a single screwdriver moves. Approve it, decline it, or take the device back — entirely your call.
If a board can't be saved or the part isn't available, you owe AED 0. The diagnostic report is yours to keep either way.
Most repairs carry a written 12-month warranty on parts and workmanship. Same fault back inside the period, we redo it free. (A few part-specific jobs carry a shorter term, shown in the tables.)

Honesty matters more than a sales pitch. These are the same limits any reputable Mac specialist works within — we just put them in writing.
Where independent board-level repair really pays off is out of warranty. The comparison below is based on an Apple Store quote obtained in Dubai (2021 MacBook Pro 14" M1 Pro, December 2025) — Apple's prices and turnaround vary by model and over time, so treat them as indicative.
| What You're Comparing | MacTech Pro Dubai | Apple Store Dubai |
|---|---|---|
| Diagnosis fee | AED 0 – free | AED 200–350 |
| Turnaround time | Same day to 5 days | 5–14 days (some sent overseas) |
| Free pickup & delivery | Yes – across Dubai | No – drop-off only |
| Warranty | 12 months, written | 12 months |
| Screen repair | From AED 680 | AED 1,400–2,200 |
| Battery replacement | From AED 490 | AED 750–950 |
| Component-level (chip) repair | Yes – down to chip level | No – full board swap only |
| Out-of-warranty Macs | Yes – Intel back to 2012 | Limited – vintage refused |
The big differences: we don't charge to diagnose, we repair the actual chip instead of swapping the whole board, and we don't ship your Mac overseas — so you keep your data and your money, and get it back faster.
