How it works

  1. Message us on WhatsApp with your phone model and what happened (a photo helps).
  2. We reply with the price and the repair time before anyone opens the phone.
  3. We agree on a pick-up point: your hotel, your condo gate or a spot in Alajuela.
  4. The phone is tested in front of you and the warranty is given in writing.

About the “unknown part” message

On iPhone XS and newer, iOS shows a notice in Settings when a screen or battery is not a new Apple part. It does not affect how the phone works. We tell you before the repair so there are no surprises.

Parts, warranty and diagnosis

About replacement parts

No replacement part sold in Costa Rica is 100 % original — not even for iPhone. Every part comes from factories in China. What changes is the quality, and we tell you which grades exist for your model, and what each costs, before the repair.

  • Standard. The budget option. On phones that came with an OLED or AMOLED screen it is usually an LCD (incell) panel: it works fine but looks a little duller and uses a bit more battery.
  • Premium. A good-factory OLED or AMOLED screen, or a battery with the same or higher capacity than stock. Colors, brightness and battery life very close to what the phone came with.
  • Original-grade. The best quality that reaches Costa Rica: by eye and touch it is hard to tell apart from the factory part. It still comes from China and is not an Apple, Samsung or Xiaomi part. Not available for every model.
  • Free diagnosis, no obligation to repair.
  • Screens and batteries: 1-month written warranty on the part and the labor. It does not cover new drops, liquids or third-party opening.
  • Water-damaged phones: we clean the board and do our best, but there is no guarantee the phone will fully recover.
  • Back up your phone before handing it over. Screen, battery and port repairs do not touch your data.
  • Mangocel is an independent repair service, not an Apple or Samsung authorized provider.

Frequently asked questions

Can you unlock an iCloud-locked iPhone?

No. We do not bypass iCloud. If the iPhone is yours and you forgot the password, we help you through Apple’s official recovery, which requires proof of purchase.

Will I lose my photos?

No. Screen, battery and port repairs do not touch your data. A backup is still a good idea.
