Need a Laptop While Yours Is in for Repair? A Replacement Device for a Few Days
Your laptop is in for repair and you need one right now — the most common situation
We see this almost every day. Someone brings a laptop in for service, the diagnostics show the repair will take a couple of days — a part is on order, the keyboard needs replacing, the motherboard needs a closer look — and the person still has to work. Business doesn’t stop just because your device is in the shop. Emails keep coming in, there’s a quote to send, a report to hand over, an online meeting to run.
That’s usually when the panic sets in: „I’ll borrow one from someone“, „I’ll work from my phone“, „I’ll manage somehow“. Managing somehow usually means lost hours and frustration. That’s why there’s a simpler solution — a replacement laptop until yours is ready. You take a device for a few days, keep working as usual, and once the repair is done you simply return the replacement.
Short-term rental for a couple of days or a week
A repair isn’t always a one-day job. Sometimes everything is done in a day or two, sometimes a part has to come from abroad and the repair stretches to a week. That’s why you rent the replacement laptop for exactly as long as you need it — there’s no obligation to pay for a whole month if three days is enough.
We have a range of devices, so we pick one based on what you do. If you need a machine just for email, documents and browsing — that’s one type. If your work is more demanding, we go with something more powerful. A quick overview by category:
- Business laptops — for office work, email, documents and online meetings.
- Student laptops — lightweight devices for everyday tasks and university.
- Workstations — when you need serious power for CAD work, video editing or heavier software.
- Gaming laptops — powerful configurations that can handle graphically demanding work too.
You can see the current devices and daily rental prices on each model’s page in the shop. Everything is laid out transparently there, so you know exactly where you stand.
How to get a device fast: send an inquiry, pick up in store, or same-day delivery if we can make it
The goal is to get the device to you quickly, because quickly is what you need. The process is simple:
- Send an inquiry — through the form on the product page, or just call us, message us on WhatsApp or Viber. Tell us what you need it for and for how many days.
- Pick it up in store — we have three locations in Belgrade, so you choose the one closest to you and collect the device in person.
- Same-day delivery if we can make it — when timing and our schedule allow, we can send a same-day delivery. We can’t promise it’s possible every single time, but we always do our best. The safest option is to call us and check whether we can make it.
The earlier you reach out, the better the chances we can sort it out the same day. If it’s urgent, phone is the fastest way.
Transferring your data and working without interruption
The biggest worry with a replacement laptop is usually: „What about my files and programs?“. The good news is that for most work today, your data doesn’t live on the device itself — it lives in the cloud. If you use a Google account, Microsoft 365, OneDrive or Dropbox, all you have to do is sign in on the replacement laptop and everything is right there: email, documents, calendar.
If you have files that were only on the laptop that’s now in for repair, we can help with that too. Since the device is with us, we can copy your important data to an external drive or USB stick so you can move it to the replacement — with your consent, of course, and after agreeing exactly what needs to be copied. That way you pick up right where you left off, without losing much time on setup.
When your own laptop is fixed — returning the replacement is simple
When your laptop is ready, we let you know. Returning the replacement is just as easy as picking it up — bring it to the store when you come to collect your own device, and take care of both in a single trip. Before you return it, just sign out of your accounts and delete your personal data, and if you need help with that, we’re here.
The whole idea is a painless handover in both directions: quickly pick up a replacement while you wait, quickly return it once yours is repaired. No complications and no paperwork slowing you down.
FAQ: minimum rental period, what to bring, deposit for short rentals
What is the minimum rental period?
You can take a replacement laptop for just a couple of days. You don’t have to pay for a longer period than you actually need — tell us how many days it is and we’ll work it out.
What should I bring when picking up the device?
An ID document for identification, plus your account login details (email, cloud) if you want to sign in right away. If you’d like us to transfer files from the laptop that’s in for repair, bring an empty USB stick or external drive, or arrange it with us in advance.
What about the deposit for a short rental?
Deposit terms for short-term rentals are agreed directly, since they depend on the device and the period. Call or message us and we’ll explain everything clearly before you pick up the laptop — no hidden items.
