How it's done
How We Perform MacBook Performance Optimization
What our technicians do, what it requires, and how to tell you need it.
1 How It's Performed
When this needs a genuine repair rather than a reset, our technicians benchmark before and after each fix step (clearing startup bloat, checking drive health, verifying RAM, checking temperatures) so you can see which specific change actually moved the needle, rather than a vague "it should be faster now."
Typical time: 45–90 minutes
2 What This Requires
- A structured check across the common causes (startup programs, drive health, RAM, temperatures, malware) rather than addressing just one and hoping.
- Before/after benchmarking so the improvement is measurable.
3 When You Need This
- Boot time, app launches, and file operations have all gotten noticeably slower over time.
- The system is fine shortly after a restart but slows down the longer it stays on.
- Fans run loud and performance drops under sustained use — a sign of thermal throttling specifically.
Who repairs your device
Repaired in-house by Xigox technicians
MacBook Performance Optimization is handled by Xigox technicians from start to finish, never handed on to another shop. Work that needs the repair bench is done at our workshop in Virar West.
Board-level faults are traced with a microscope, a multimeter and a soldering station before any part is replaced, and parts are fitted only after you approve the quote.
We don't open your personal files during a repair. When a job needs access to your data, such as data recovery or a Windows reinstall, we ask you first.
- Repaired in-house, not outsourced
- Quote approved by you before work starts
- Your files stay private
- Microscope and board-level tools
- Genuine or OEM-grade parts
- 90-day warranty on repairs

MacBook specifics
What MacBook Performance Optimization Means on a MacBook
MacBooks are sealed, glued and board-integrated, so almost nothing is a plug-in swap. Repairs are component-level work on the logic board, not module replacement.
Why it happens on MacBook Air and MacBook Pro owners
- Thermal paste degradation on tightly packed M-series and Intel boards
- Blocked rear-vent airflow under the hinge
- Liquid ingress through the keyboard into the logic board
- Swollen battery pressing on the trackpad and top case
What our MacBook technician checks
- Apple Diagnostics and full board voltage-rail read
- Thermal imaging of the heat pipe and fan assembly
- Corrosion inspection under the keyboard membrane
- Battery cycle count and health via system report
MacBook hardware we work on
- Apple Silicon M-series and Intel logic boards
- Butterfly and Magic Keyboard assemblies
- Retina display assemblies with bonded glass
- Battery packs adhesived into the top case
- Thunderbolt / USB-C charging boards
- T2 security chip and SSD soldered to board
Models we see most often
- MacBook Air M1 / M2
- MacBook Pro 13" Touch Bar
- MacBook Pro 14" and 16" M-series
- MacBook Pro Retina 15"
Because storage is soldered on T2 and Apple Silicon boards, we take a full image before any board work so nothing is lost if the SSD controller is affected.
Do you use genuine Apple parts?
We use OEM-grade and original-pull Apple components, and we tell you which one your quote covers before any work starts. Board-level repair keeps costs well below Apple's whole-unit replacement price.
