We repair the Acer Spin 3 SP314-52 at our workshop in Bermondsey, from cracked screens and worn batteries to board faults and data recovery. It is a 14-inch 2-in-1 laptop from 2018. The SSD can be replaced but the memory is soldered, so storage is the only upgrade.

Price confirmed before work starts
Charging port and power repair
Depending on the configuration this charges through a round socket, USB-C or both. We test the adapter, the port and the charging circuit to find which has failed.
SSD and storage upgrade
The Acer Spin 3 SP314-52 takes an M.2 SSD. We clone the existing drive to a larger one so Windows, programs and files carry over unchanged.

Windows repair and reinstall

We replace the internal battery and check the charging circuit and adapter at the same time. A battery of this age that swells should be replaced before it damages the trackpad or casing.

Can the SSD or memory in the Acer Spin 3 SP314-52 be upgraded?
The SSD can be replaced with a larger M.2 drive. Memory is soldered and cannot be upgraded.
My Acer Spin 3 SP314-52 will not turn on. Is my data lost?
Usually not. The drive is separate from the fault in most cases, and we can remove it and copy your files even if the machine itself is not worth repairing.
How much does a Acer Spin 3 SP314-52 screen replacement cost?
Price confirmed before work starts. The exact figure depends on the part your machine needs, and we confirm it before any work starts.
Is a 2018 Acer Spin 3 SP314-52 still worth repairing?
It depends on the fault. A battery, SSD or charging socket is usually worth doing. A major board repair on an older machine may cost more than the machine is worth, and if that is the case we will say so.
