Repairs we carry out on the ASUS Chromebook CX1500
Screen replacement
We replace the 15.6-inch panel like-for-like, matching resolution and connector to the part number on the original.
Price confirmed before work starts
ChromeOS recovery
We restore ChromeOS from a recovery image when the device shows a missing or damaged system message, and check its automatic update end date for you.
Battery replacement
The battery is internal and held by screws. We fit a new one, then calibrate and test it under load. A battery of this age that swells should be replaced before it damages the trackpad or casing.

Data recovery from the ASUS Chromebook CX1500
Most of what is on a Chromebook lives in the Google account and Google Drive, and comes back when you sign in on another device. Files kept only in the local Downloads folder are encrypted and tied to the account, so recovery from a dead ASUS Chromebook CX1500 is limited. We will tell you honestly what is possible.
