Principal Computers

Contacted Principal Computers with a slightly unusual/different request for a computer. I spoke with James and he was very understanding and respectful of the situation and what was required. Even after the initial planning and building some changes had to be made and they were very accommodating in doing this. Everyone I have communicated with has been very friendly and helpful even though I am sure they were probably sick of my emails by the end🙂 Would highly recommend them for all your computer needs.

Recently had 2 Gaming PCs custom built for my son’s. Extremely happy with the work, pricing , communication and excellent customer service. They were built very quickly with guarantee warranties for parts and work piece of mind. Spent roughly 6g in this store throughly recommend and will deal with them in the future! Thank you guys ! A life saver!!

The best service I have received in a very long time. Extremely knowledgeable and professional whilst still listening to you and your problem. Very fair pricing and honest work. Extremely pleased with my experience here, would be back and highly recommend.

Absolute legends. Richard fixed my laptop within 2 minutes. He was friendly and did a great job.

Absolutely great services. Find out the issue of why my computer won’t start and fixed it within 3 hours. Thanks !

Came in on behalf of an elderly customer who had a very simple but painstaking email issue, seperate matter to the laptop purchased at principal computers weeks earlier. The team of 3 that helped me were extremely professional, patient and kind. Definitely deserving of a pay rise might I add. Couldn't recommend this business more highly, the issue was solved asap! Hurray

Got my PSU replaced in no time, on a Friday evening. Without a question best in biz.

Feet2u bought a $2,500 computer from these guys to setup a home office. The after service by these people was 1st class. So happy with our experience. Would highly recommend them to anyone needing technical assistance or product knowledge. They know their stuff.

I can't express how grateful I am to have found Principal Computers in Hobart, and to have had the pleasure of working with Tim, the owner. From start to finish, my experience with this business has been nothing short of fantastic. Tim's knowledge and expertise in the field are truly impressive. He took the time to thoroughly understand my issues and provided clear explanations of the solutions he recommended. Overall, my experience with Principal Computers and Tim has been exceptional. If you're in need of computer repairs, upgrades, or expert advice, look no further. Tim's professionalism, technical knowledge, and commitment to customer satisfaction make Principal Computers my top choice.

Great service, friendly, and reliable. They have excellent knowledge and a wide range of products. They helped me with the choice of a computer to suit my needs . Highly recommended.

Went in this morning with a worrying computer problem, I received excellent friendly service by Tim, a Highly skilled computer technician, solved my problem within minutes.
Their charges are extremely reasonable, and the guys are extremely talented, so no time wasted, therefore I highly recommend them for all your computer needs.
The service was wonderful Tim. Thanks again!!!!

Local business with a good range of products, honest advice too.

Principal Computers is definitely the best IT & computer store in Hobart.

Despite being a small business, they offer very competitive pricing. They also have awesome staff who know what they are doing and are happy to go out of their way to ensure that you get what you need.

I have bought two laptops from this shop now, and have had nothing short of a great experience both times. 10/10, wholly recommend.

I've dealt with Principal Computers for the last 20+ years. I've always found prices to be competitive on quality products and I can rely on their technical and product advice. Most importantly, even though I've become reasonably tech savvy of necessity, I know they'll go the extra yard to get me out of a problem on my office computers when I'm stumped, and frantically attempting to get my business back up and running. Try getting that sort of service from others who have sketchy technical expertise, and whose sole mission seems to be to achieve the highest $$ monthly salesman trophies. Thanks James

Edit: Surprise, surprise . . . previous negative comment hiding in an empty profile with no public details at all and only one post. Google . . . shame indeed!!

Great place! Charlotte and the gentleman that helped me replace my laptop cable today were great! Ended up saving me money and very friendly and easy to chat to. I would highly recommend and will return for any future techy needs 🌟

Excellent service, a good product range of reliable components. Gotten almost all my parts from them for every PC upgrade I do. Highly recommend you go see Tim for the best hookup.

Excellent service and competitive pricing. Tried their very best to help us with a lap top problem . In Hobart definitely use this company . Emily says thank you James !

Got a CPU cooler but unfortunately the screws came damaged and weren't able to be unscrewed. Brought it in, they took a look at it and were able to remove the damaged screws. When they gave back, they handed me replacement screws at no extra cost. Great customer service, they'll help you out with any issue.

Great selection of quality desktop components and laptops.
I brought my desktop with a suspected faulty SSD to the team. I was served by CS who, not only turned my cooler the right way around haha, made me feel well looked after throughout the process. Their communication level was refreshingly high and were keen to avoid any unnecessary cost blowouts. They found the issue and handed my computer back to me within a matter of days. Great stuff, the process was just simple and easy!

i used to come to these guys back when they has two desks and a single isle down the middle of the shop, now they have expanded and are still the best pc shop in Tasmania, iv been to them all, sad but true.

recently had my gaming rig tested for bad hardware, got the part sorted for more than a fair price as well as they went over and beyond and even sorted out my incredibly bad cable management,
its so good to see them prosper with there newest shop, and amazing to see them grow into the size they have,i cant recommend these guys/girls enough!!!!!!!!!

p.s
sorry for the weight of my case :P
