iMac logic board repair is the most technically demanding work we run at Azizi Technologies in Dubai, and we deliver it at component level across every iMac generation Apple has shipped from the 2015 21.5-inch 4K Retina through the 2020 27-inch 5K Retina Intel and the M1, M3 and M4 24-inch Apple Silicon units. Pricing starts at AED 550 for diagnosis plus a basic component-level repair (single capacitor or MOSFET replacement, single power IC swap, ribbon connector resolder), and ranges through AED 800 to AED 1,400 for multi-component repairs, AED 1,500 to AED 2,400 for GPU or CPU package reflow on discrete-GPU Intel iMacs, and AED 2,200 to AED 4,800 for full logic board replacement on the M1, M3 and M4 24-inch units where individual components are not serviceable due to SoC integration. Our workshop is equipped for board-level work with a JBC CD-2BC soldering station with hot-tweezer handpiece, a Quick 861DW hot air rework station for BGA reflow on GPU and chipset packages, a Keysight U1242C industrial multimeter, a Keysight DSO-X 3024A 200 MHz 4-channel oscilloscope for rail-ripple capture under load, a Hakko FR-301 desoldering tool, a stereo microscope for fine pitch work, and Apple Service Toolkit 2 (AST 2) for diagnostic communication with the boards in DFU and recovery modes. Common iMac logic board faults we repair every week - cracked solder joints around the GPU package on 27-inch 5K Intel iMacs (the AMD Radeon Pro modules suffer fatigue cracks in Dubai's thermal cycling environment, presenting as artefacts, screen tearing, or kernel panics in graphics-intensive apps), failed power ICs on the 12V or 3.3V rails (presenting as no boot, random shutdowns, or fans-spin-but-no-display), failed Thunderbolt 3 retimer ICs on 2017 and later Intel models (presenting as Thunderbolt devices not recognised or limited bandwidth), failed SSD controller IC on M1, M3 and M4 24-inch (presenting as no boot or APFS volume errors), cracked solder joints on the M-series unified memory package (presenting as kernel panics under memory pressure), failed magnetic power cable connector PCB (presenting as intermittent power), failed Touch ID Magic Keyboard handshake circuitry on the higher-tier M-series boards, and failed Centre Stage webcam ISP on M3 and M4. Diagnosis workflow - free initial visual inspection under stereo microscope, AST 2 fault code retrieval over the diagnostic harness, oscilloscope rail capture under load and at idle, multimeter point-to-point continuity check on suspect rails, thermal imaging with our FLIR camera to identify hot spots indicating failed components, and a final functional test bench-fire of the board in a donor chassis where required. The 5 to 8 working hour diagnosis on a complex board fault is billed at our flat AED 350 diagnostic fee which credits 100 percent against the repair cost. Repair workflow for cracked GPU joints on Intel iMacs - we lift the GPU module, clean the BGA pads, re-ball using leaded solder spheres at the correct pitch (0.5mm or 0.65mm depending on package), reflow in our convection oven with controlled ramp and soak profile, validate continuity, refit with fresh Honeywell PTM7950 phase-change pad, and bench-fire test before reinstall. Repair workflow for failed M-series power IC - identify the failed IC via oscilloscope rail capture, source the IC through our authorised distributor network in the UAE and Hong Kong, hot-air reflow at controlled temperature with thermal monitoring on adjacent components, post-reflow rail validation, and bench-fire test. Data preservation - all board work preserves the existing storage on Intel iMacs (the SSD blade and SATA drive are independent of the board). On M1, M3 and M4 iMacs, full board replacement loses access to the on-die SSD storage so we image the storage forensically via Apple Configurator 2 DFU bridge before any board swap - data preservation included in the quote at no extra cost. Free pickup and delivery on logic board jobs across DMC, Studio City, Tecom, JLT, Marina, Business Bay, DIFC, Bur Dubai, Downtown, Knowledge Park, DHCC and Palm Jumeirah.
Two walk-in workshops - Concord Tower 10th Floor Dubai Media City, and IT Center Building Bur Dubai. Hours Monday to Saturday 9am to 9pm, Friday break 12 to 2pm, closed Sunday. 90-day parts and labour warranty on every board repair. The Apple Genius Bar wait time at Mall of the Emirates and Dubai Mall is currently 7 to 14 days for iMac board work and Apple's only option is a full board swap at premium pricing - we deliver component-level repairs at 30 to 50 percent below Apple Service Centre pricing with 24 to 72 hour turnaround on most jobs. See /imac-repair-dubai for chip-specific and panel pages, /macbook-repair-dubai for MacBook board work, /mac-studio-repair-dubai for pro desktops, /data-recovery-dubai for forensic recovery. Trade-in and refurbished iMac inventory at /sell-apple-devices-dubai if the board repair cost approaches the unit's current market value - we will give you a free written valuation alongside the board-level repair quote so you can compare repair cost against trade-in plus upgrade to an M3 or M4 generation, or a refurbished 27-inch 5K iMac in the case of clients on the late-Intel form factor who want to stay with the bigger screen. We are not an Apple AASP, which means we can take on board-level work on vintage iMac Pro (2017) units that Apple's own service channels declined, water-damaged units that have been air-dried at home before being brought in, units previously opened or modified by other workshops in Dubai, and units with aftermarket or salvaged parts. For Dubai businesses with multiple aging iMacs (typical at 5-year-old Tecom design agencies, DIFC legal firms, and Bur Dubai trading offices) we offer fleet diagnostic and repair pricing - 10 percent off three or more units serviced in the same workshop visit, plus onsite delivery and collection across DMC, Business Bay, Studio City, JLT, Marina, Knowledge Park, DHCC and Bur Dubai. The economics of component-level board repair versus full board replacement versus trade-in plus upgrade are different for every unit and every client situation, and our role is to give you the full picture rather than push you towards the most expensive option. 642 verified Google reviews at 4.9 stars, 18 years in Dubai since 2007.
