With all the modern technology that we have in our life today, it's understandable that some will breakdown. When it does you'll need the right tools to fix it, but that isn't always easy. A lot of modern tech uses different types of screws with multiple heads — star bits, Philips bits, and hex bits to name just a few — so it can be difficult to have the right screwdriver for the job.
That's where a mini Screwdriver set comes in handy. You can pick them up relatively cheap and they normally have a good selection of the most common head types. Often they come with added extras that can make your life even easier. We've compiled a list of our favorites for you here.
Keama 6PCS Mini Screwdriver Set with Case
The author owns this set
I have had this set, and sets like it, for my entire adult life. Having been a computer nut for years I have always needed a dependable set of small screwdrivers.
This are particularly nice to use as the tops rotate freely. This makes it much easier to apply pressure while also rotating the screw. The all-metal construction makes these screwdrivers long lasting too.
ORIA Precision Screwdriver Kit
Great for hard to reach places
I like this set for the helpful bendy extender. There are often, especially in PC's, tiny little screws hidden behind components that need you to be a contortionist to get to.
This little screwdriver lets you bend the neck of the driver instead of your own fingers.
Apsung 110 in 1 Precision Screwdriver Set
Perfect for fixing your phone
When I first used the Apsung set I was blown away by how versatile it really is. It has all of the driver bits you need sure, but it also has a plethora of small plastic tools designed to make opening a laptop or phone safe and easy.

I have been using Stanley products for 25 years now and have never once regretted a purchase from them. These drivers are a simple set that do exactly what they say. They won't let you down when you need them most, and that's what's important.
XOOL Precision Screwdriver Set
Simple and aesthetically pleasing
Despite what some might say, there is room for good looking tools. This matte black driver, with beautiful rose gold bits easy not only great to look at, but is as practical as it is pretty.
Great Working Tools Multi-Piece Screwdriver Set
A wider variety of tools
Having a small set of mini drivers can be helpful but so is having all of your drivers in one place. This set from Great Working Tools has just about every screwdriver you are ever likely to need.
Plus it all comes in a very handy stand that can be wall-mounted for ease of use.
Drive the point home
I try really hard to fix things that I own myself without the need for an external vendor. To do that though I need the right tools for the job. A good set of mini screwdrivers is one of those tools that you may think you need but that makes your life easier as soon as you have them.
From the Keama 6PCS Mini Screwdriver Set with Case that's great for opening PC cases and kids' toys to the more comprehensive Apsung 110 in 1 Precision Screwdriver Set — that set is custom made for modern technology repair — all of these drivers will improve your life just by having them handy.
