Repairs we carry out on the HP Spectre x360 14-ef
Touchscreen replacement
Glass, touch layer and display are one bonded 13.5-inch part. We replace it as a unit and test touch and pen input before it leaves.
Price confirmed before work starts
SSD and storage upgrade
The HP Spectre x360 14-ef takes an M.2 SSD. We clone the existing drive to a larger one so Windows, programs and files carry over unchanged.
Price confirmed before work starts
Memory
Memory in the HP Spectre x360 14-ef is soldered and cannot be upgraded. It is worth knowing this before paying anyone for a memory upgrade.
Windows repair and reinstall
The HP Spectre x360 14-ef shipped with Windows 11. We repair start-up faults, reinstall Windows cleanly with your files kept, and remove malware.
Battery replacement
The battery is internal and held by screws. We fit a new one, then calibrate and test it under load. At this age, short runtime and sudden shutdowns usually point to a worn battery and not a board fault.
Price confirmed before work starts
Charging port and power repair
Charging is over USB-C. A loose or dead port is replaced where it is a separate part, or repaired on the motherboard where it is soldered.
We also carry out keyboard and trackpad repair, motherboard repair, liquid damage repair, overheating and fan repair, hinge and casing repair, virus removal on the HP Spectre x360 14-ef, along with USB, HDMI and audio port repair, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth card replacement, webcam and speaker faults, BIOS password removal with proof of ownership and data transfer to a new machine.
Notes from the workshop
- Spectre machines have soldered memory and a bonded touchscreen, so both are fixed-specification parts.
- Battery swelling that lifts the keyboard deck or trackpad does occur on these and should be dealt with promptly.
Data recovery from the HP Spectre x360 14-ef
The SSD in the HP Spectre x360 14-ef can be removed and imaged on our own equipment, so files can usually be recovered even when the machine will not start. Recent Windows machines often have device encryption or BitLocker switched on. If so we will need the recovery key, which is normally saved in your Microsoft account.
