I bought this toolkit because I needed to replace the LCD on a Droid X phone along with needing to fix the backlight on a 1st generation iPad Wifi. This gave me all the tiny Torx bits I needed for working on both. This toolkit comes in a nice organizer case, which is small enough to carry in your pocket.

One of the only downsides of this kit is that it's not magnetic, which makes removing and reinserting tiny screws tough. Another reviewer suggested taking a magnet and rubbing it against the bits to temporarily magnetize them. That's a good temporary fix, but there's an easy way to permanently magnetize this screwdriver. The base of the screwdriver is hollow so that you can store your bits in it (the black lid pulls straight off - no twisting required), but instead, I simply inserted a 1/4" diameter round neodymium rare earth magnet into it. The magnet's pull is strong enough that the screwdriver bits are magnetized when inserting them into the tool, and it holds the screw in place perfectly every single time now. Plus it makes a good little screw-retrieval tool if I accidentally drop one down into a device.

The plastic prying tool in this set is also very handy. I don't think it will hold up to repeated use on sturdier metal devices (like trying to open an iPad case. For that I had to use an iSesamo ultra-thin steel pry tool), but it worked great for removing the plastic bezels on my Droid X. What I REALLY found the pry tool invaluable for, however, was unhooking the tiny cable connectors found in so many devices these days.

All in all, I give this kit a very strong 5 star rating. The case makes it extremely portable, it has a great variety of tiny specialty bits that are required for disassembling numerous current-gen electronics, all of the pieces feel quality made, you get a very handy plastic pry tool in the same carry case, and since there's really no need to store bits in the handle thanks to the case being so compact and well-organized already, you can magnetize your screwdriver with no more effort than dropping a magnet into the top and putting the lid back on.

I am an IT technician so I've seen my share of component tools and this set is going to be with me for years. I truly recommend this set of tools. If your looking for the best buy, most bang for your buck, then look no further.

Just writing this review to say that the pentalobe bit in this kit works with the Retina Macbook Pro. The bit seems like good quality, the bit didn't strip, nor did it strip my screws. Great value!!

I bought this solely for the pentalobe 1 bit for use with the iPhone 5. I have come to appreciate the other included bits, as well as the plastic spudger. Its a nice little set.

I was CERTAIN I had killed my MacBook Air. With this kit and some online guides I was able to take it completely apart, clean it up, and put it back together again within and hour and a half. I'll never be without something like this ever again! All of the bits fit perfectly in the screw heads - didn't strip a single one.

Pros:
Small / Compact
Tough
Reliable

Cons:
None

I would recommend this to a friend or colleague.

I used this recently to replace a Macbook Pro battery, which requires the small philips, the small tri-wing and the spudger.

These tools are nice quality and will last many years, unlike the junk screwdrivers that often come with battery and phone replacement parts.

By Mrussell

This kit goes above and beyond any tool repair kit that I have purchased!

Pros:
Quick and easy fixes. Great traveling kit that I have in my everyday bag. The screwdriver is easy to add or remove the heads. I have used it for gamecube controllers, phone screen replacements, laptop screen replacements, laptop cleaning, and more. It is a must have for the do it yourself fixers!

Cons:
Unfortunately, the largest con to the product is that the heads are made of a soft metal. The metal bends if forced too hard. Also, the tip is not magnetic but can be fixed if you buy a few magnets and you take off the cap (dropping them down into the cavity).

The quality of the product is fantastic and I would highly recommend it!

I chose this item for it's reviews, though I was a little unsure of the durability of the product. Received it, well packaged. I love the plastic storage case. The bits are well manufactured and seem like they will last a long time. Installation of my macbook air battery was a breeze. I recommend this product!

I bought this tool set to work on electronics around my home. It's perfect for the job. The picture is a little deceiving, it's very small -- smaller than I expected.

The tips are not magnetic, though. I popped off the little black top of the driver and dropped a few little magnets in.

Wonderful set, I recommend it.
