Apple maintenance and liquid damage: photographs from the iGenius workshop

These are the workshop's own photographs of opened devices at iGenius in Grecia, Costa Rica. Many incoming devices need maintenance for dust buildup or inspection after liquid exposure. The photographs show interiors and inspection work; each diagnosis and result is confirmed separately.

Dust buildup: what needs inspection

Visible dirt helps assess cleaning needs, but a photograph alone cannot explain overheating, shutdowns or noise. The workshop checks ventilation, components and behavior before recommending maintenance.

Liquid-damage inquiries

For a liquid-exposed device, we need to know what happened, when and how it behaves. Diagnosis determines affected components and whether electronic repair is viable. We do not promise recovery based only on a photograph.

Why the device is opened and inspected

Charging faults, black screens and restarts can have different causes. Physical inspection and workshop checks distinguish maintenance, part replacement and logic-board repair.
