You might be surprised to learn that there are many more repairable parts of a cell phone aside from the classic cracked screen: Cameras and camera lenses, earphone speakers, and charge ports are some of the more common issues that turn up at the store, though that’s just the tip of the iceberg. At Cracked, they save devices on the daily. “The benefit of repairing is that it's usually cheaper to repair than to replace, and when replacing with a phone company, you usually have to also upgrade your phone contract as well,” says Owner Lori Ashley.

In a time where ‘reduce, re-use, recycle’ is the new consumer mantra, getting your cell phone, tablet, or gaming system serviced as opposed to replaced can be your best option when faced with a damaged device. Cracked Device Co., on Capitol Drive in Charlottetown, specialize in exactly that- bringing your ‘cracked’ device new life.
