Best Phone Repair in Koh Samui
While traveling around for long periods of time or simply just going on vacation, your electronics suffer quite a bit. Due to a few issues we needed to find a phone repair place while we were in Koh Samui. Numerous google searches brought up nothing useful. Lauren’s charging port went kaput while we were in Bangkok and she had to switch to her backup iphone 5. It’s not until you’re without your phone did we realize how much we depended on it. Even having most things backed up, it’s a huge pain in the butt to switch everything over to another phone. The backup was ok but just not the same as the iphone 6 that Lauren was used to. We had the luxury of time to poke around the island for a repair place. At most shopping malls or grocery stores there are phone shops that can fix phones. None of them are listed online. We started asking around and got wildly different prices that all seemed too high. I checked on Amazon for the part and saw $7 replacements so there was no way I was going to pay someone 1,500 baht to fix the phone. So where did we end up going?

While picking up groceries at the Tesco Lotus in Bo Put, we saw a guy in the entrance of the mall with a little phone shop. We showed him the phone and within 10 minutes it was fixed. He was quick and did it for a good price. We ended up going to him twice. As bad luck would have it, Lauren cracked her screen a week later during a harrowing scooter ride and we went back to our friend at Mobile Easy Phone Repair. At first he thought that there was a problem with the original repair but quickly realized we were just repeat customers. Once again he had the job done in minutes as we watched.
Here’s the place on google maps.

Bo Put, Koh Samui, Thailand.
He can do all kinds of phone, ipads, tablets android, etc. He also had a collection of broken parts of phones that he had fixed on display showing terribly cracked screens, bent cases and fried parts.
What did the screen Repair cost?:)
I think the screen repair was 1,500 Baht and the port repair was 1000 Baht
Thanks so much for this! Cracked my screen really bad and no where I can find in Krabi to do it but heading to Koh Samui next so will defo try find this place!
Sorry to hear about the phone. Good luck! I’m ~4 months in with my (multiple) replacement parts and no issues!
Which entrance is he located? The back at Homepr?
Yes, Mobile Easy Phone Repair is located at the back entrance of the mall in the rear parking lot.
The man is gone, there is no such a shop anymore. After walking around and asking I’ve been sent to Big C. Replacement battery (original) IPhone 6, 2200 thb. After one week the new battery gave me problems. Without questions they replaced this one as well.
That’s a shame. I wonder where he went?
He is at Central Festival Mall, on the second floor. Close to Chaweng area. Really at the back in a small room in between. We ran into him while looking for someone who could fix my Nexus 5. Unfortunately he didn’t have spare parts for this brand.
Thanks for the update Gina!
Does anyone know if he is still there ? Broke my iPhone today and I’m on Samui but the other side of the island and don’t want to make a wasted trip. Does he open late?
If he’s not there anymore there are other repair places on Road 4169. I think the Big C shopping center has phone repair places in Bo Put. The phone kiosks usually close around 5pm so it’s best to get there earlier.
Does anyone happen to know where I would be able to buy an iPhone 6 charger? I’d assume repair places sold them but again I don’t want to waste a trip there!
