Worst apple store in nyc. Broke my wife's phone when repairing screen cant even sell a sole iphone to me

After visiting Apple a second Sunday in a row I am thoroughly satisfied with my customer service experience. Last week I walked in with a few inquiries as to why my iPhone is acting as if it's been misused, thrown in a pool, and microwaved. Steve did a reset for my phone's settings. He advised me that this may only cure the issue temporarily. Welp, Steve was right which essentially led me to today's appointment. Today I met Mega who was extremely professional, patient and knowledgable. She pulled up my appointment from last week to see what was done in regards to repairing my phone. Steve didn't write any notes so Mega had me walk her through what took place. I explained to her my issues and what was done to temporarily fix the problem which is why I'm currently here again. Mega mentioned to me that my apps were crashing and I wouldn't know that they weren't operating at 100% because it's in their system. After speaking to me for what seem all of ten minutes she explained what she wanted to do but advised me that it may not work. She didn't want to take the risk of my phone being inoperable if the system was upgraded from iOS 8 to iOS 9. Mega mentioned that I have the option to upgrade my phone since I'm no longer cover under warranty at Apple either here or through my carrier. She did warn me however that AT&T may not take back a defective phone. With that being said if I'm interested in upgrading I can trade this phone in for the iPhone 6S. Mega is truly a gem! Thank you again for helping me. read more

Finally we have an Apple store in Queens. I was having some issues with my phone so I made an appointment at this location but I was a bit afraid after the bad reviews. The store was crowded but I never been to any Apple store that isn't. I went to the back and waited for someone to help me after I check in. About 10-15 minutes later Cameron came to help me and he was very nice and helped me get a replacement phone since I was still under warranty. When you come here you need to come with plenty of time since you are not the only one having issues but overall the employees are all polite and try to help you. read more

I came into this apple store last night to deal with my phone issues. The guy who helped me was great, I wish I could remember his name, but either way, this review isnt about him. While sitting and waiting for my phone to be serviced, an elderly man sat across from me to have his apple watch fixed. The man who was helping him tried to explain that since he forgot his phone, there was nothing that could be done. The young girl who was helping someone else at my table looked over and must have recognized that she worked with him before. She asked if he was ok and he tried to explain to her what was going on. She politely told him she was helping someone else and the man helping him would handle his situation. After a few minutes, it became clear he only wanted to talk to her. This girl, I believe she told him her name was Yasmine, turned to this man, and told him that if he could hurry home and come back she would help him. She even mentioned his new haircut. The whole interaction was so sweet and endearing to watch. This girl went out of her way to try to help this man, she remembered him from having come in previously, and you can tell he appreciated that too. She deserves some recognition for what she did. read more

I came to this store because my 14 year old sister's phone iPhone 7 screen that was given to me from this apple store in May of 2018 would no longer turn on. Upon my initial entrance in the store the lady told me that it would be a 2.5 hour wait from the time i stepped foot into the store which i found crazy, but thats not even the point. John was the representative that assisted with my issue and he did his normal triage of the iPhone 7, and diagnosed that this phone had a faulty display which should fix the issue.. now remember this phone was given to me as a warranty replacement for the phone that initially had a one year warranty.. They insisted that to fix "Apple's Faulty display" i had to fork out 150$.. for a phone that wasn't more than 8 months old. I couldn't understand the logic, they told me they only provide 90$ warranty on the products they give for replacement phones which i found crazy. I asked for a supervisor, he came and it would appear that John told him to stick to his side and to not cut me a break, the supervisor that came over was totally unprofessional, they both kept mentioning the phone may be water damaged and this is my phone so im responsible for charges. so i asked for another supervisor, this time it was someone that was new to the situation and he worked with me. he was able to give me a break on the screen replacement cost, but this is not a way to treat customers. In my personal opinion i feel like John and the supervisor that first came over need to be retrained on customer service skills because it is extremely rude to assume a phone is water damaged by just looking at the outside of the device. In the end i walked out with a working phone after waiting nearly 2-3 hours in the apple store, arguing back and forth. I have been to numerous locations and this trip to Queens Center Apple store has been one of the worst experiences for me.I won't be visiting this location again. read more

We always choose this location to make our appts since it's near my parents' house. We checked in 15 mins earlier and we didn't have to wait at all since we only needed replacements. We were done quickly. Reps were nice, as usual. They have a lot of people working there and they have always been helpful. We have never had to wait longer than 15 mins for an appt. Whenever they needed to fix a phone we brought in, they would tell us to come back within 2 hours. We are an Apple family, lots of IPhones, IPads, laptops, and Mac Pros, Apple watches, etc... we have never had any issues with customer reps ever whether in the city or at the mall. If we need to buy a product in store, we use Apple Pay and make the purchase ourselves. Technology has made it so simple that we don't need people anymore. My only issues with any Apple store is really the customers or wait.. they're not customers.. they're just people who come to the mall with nothing to do but hang around all day using Apple's computers. It is not a library. read more

If I can give a minus star I would. Apple management should really take a look at customer service of this store. The customer service here is so rude. I was asking for help and the lady came with an attitude and said you want to buy or something else. Not even say hi or May I help you!! It is like I am begging for a product. I believe her name is Katrina. Then she said you need to come back or order online we are going to close in 20 minutes. I said you still have 20 minutes. Looks like she does not want to work at all just stand there. She then said I need to make an appointment first. I told her last time I made an appointment and I had to wait for almost an hour and you let people without the appointment cut the line. She said but it is today!!! I felt very disgusted with this lady attitude!! How can you be a customer service with this type of attitude!! All my family members use apple products and this store made me wanted to stop using apple. If you can avoid this store please do so. Apple management please look into this store. You are loosing reputation, something needs to be done. read more

I bought a MacBook Pro here. Since the day I bought it it had constant problems. Never an apology. The keyboard didn't work, the monitor didn't work. Each time it was fixed because I had a warranty. As soon as the warranty ended the store asked $600 to fix a computer that was sold to me broken. Do NOT recommend this place. Absolutely worst experience ever. Very rude staff, they'll do nothing for you if there's a problem. The person who "helped" me suggested I had done something to the computer even though a recall was issued by Mac. Go to any other Mac store just definitely not here. read more

Thank you Ana for helping me with my purchase! This place although packed there is plenty of help and it was a quick in and out. I hate QCM but the apple store might just change that for me. SO much better than Manhasset. read more

My husband and I visited this Apple store today (November 18) and had a great experience. We arrived around 2PM (amidst the chaos that is to be expected during a pre-holiday-season Saturday) so we did have to wait 2 hours for the next available appointment, but from the moment we checked-in this afternoon to the moment we walked out the door this evening, every Genius that helped us along the way was friendly and professional. After receiving the text messages informing us that we were ready to be seen, we returned to the store where we checked back in and were assisted by a man (whose name I unfortunately can't recall) who quickly helped my husband transform his phone from its 'disabled' brick state back to normal function. We had expressed interest in upgrading our iPhones, so a woman (I'm terrible-- I missed her name too, but she was very helpful) took over and walked us through our options before turning it over to Adam, whose professionalism and patience made the otherwise agonizingly tedious process of trading-in and upgrading two iPhones bearable and even pleasant. Two hours-- yes, *two* hours-- and multiple stressful, time-consuming password hiccups later, Adam's patience and easy demeanor prevailed and my husband and I left the store with new phones in hand. On our way out Adam even shared some valuable Apple tips with us and showed us how to sign up for free Apple workshops. Based on my personal experience, I would recommend this Apple store location over the 5th Ave location and I plan to return. read more

It's been really convenient to have an Apple Store in Elmhurst. I still remember the days when I had to make the trek to the Apple store on Fifth Ave! My sister and I stopped by on a Sunday evening to purchase a new iPhone. Store was crowded but we made eye contact with one of the employees and he immediately greeted us and asked if we needed help. I forgot his name but he was extremely helpful and friendly. He told us it's his first day and how he was a little nervous. We had a little hiccup with my sister's apple pay while trying to make the purchase but he was patient and said "we will try this until it works". Appreciate that he made conversation with us throughout the entire exchange and didn't try to sell us on extra gadgets etc. Explained apple care thoroughly and didn't pressure us into making a decision immediately. Overall, it was a quick process and we were in and out of the store in 10 mins with the new phone. Apple store really needs more employees like him (if only I remember his name!!!). read more

This is the closest Apple Store to my home, but I usually visit the Soho location by my job. Since this location first opened, I wondered why anyone thought it was a good idea to open an Apple Store in this kind of mall. Firstly, and this is not their fault, the store is full of hoodlums as well as teenagers hanging out and playing with all devices with an obvious lack of intent to purchase anything. Came here for the first time last night and left majorly pissed - which is a first, considering I've never had anything short of a wonderful experience with Apple. The staff is nowhere NEAR as competent as what I'm used to in the city. They seemed to be angered by the fact that they had to, you know, work. We were passed off to colleagues twice. That speaks volumes for the laziness--sorry that I wanted to purchase a laptop and now you have to do something other than stand and greet people. Needless to say, after being treated like nuisances, we left here laptop-less. I went to the Soho location this morning and picked up a Pro. I give it another year tops before they close this location (unless they abide by a longer lease :/) read more

WORST APPLE STORE I usually go to the Apple Store in the city but decided this one was closer and to go here instead. After a 2 hour wait time the staff didn't believe my story as to how my phone broke and refused to believe that their product was defective. They didn't even bother to take a look at it and immediately told me the price for a swap and called me a liar about what happened. If you do not want to leave offended and angry I would strongly agree to not come to this Apple Store. read more

Roger at the front door was not only rude but also condescending in his mannerisms. The actively profiled his patrons, I went to go buy a new phone and waited patiently as I watched him talk down to MULTIPLE senior citizens asking him simple questions. He was so lazy to answer a question he just POINTED at the sign with his eyebrows raised. DISGUSTING... how do you treat your patrons like that? When finally I was approached there was no hello no welcome to Apple... but rather " do you have an appointment" and then when I said no... just walked away. I know there is a labor shortage but by paying low wages you will get this kind of low level bottom of the barrel customer service. Front of the house is a crucial element in starting the Apple experience, why Negatively engage your guest when they are there to spend money and promote the Apple Brand. read more

This is the apple store with the worst customer service. They think they own the store and rude to the customers l.

Taking proper precautions. Temp check , employees making sure you are social distancing, if you do not have an appointment you have to come back another day, etc. As always, staff are very knowledgeable, attentive, professional, and warm. I always have a good experience when coming here . You dont mind the wait and if you care that they care about your well being then go to this location. read more

Cancelled my appointment after 15 minutes giving me no option to see anyone that same day. Time and money wasted.

I received terrible customer service at this store. The employees don't want to be there, are rude, and it does not reflect apple's brand. I would rather go to manhattan and wait in line to have better customer service than this shitty store. read more

Since 5 years ago I have always go to this store to purchase anything I need and get help with any problem I got. But my last visit was just awful. I couldn't believe this was happening to me. I when to the store and ask for the product I was looking for a nice guy guide me to where they have it and where I can pay them. There were 3 employees there talking with a customer and laughed so loud they weren't even talking about the product they were just having a funny talk I don't say anything cause I don't want to cause trouble and them after 15 minutes the guy there decided to ask me why I was there and y say "I would like to bought a set of AirPods Pro" They guy take it scanned and say it's 270 something like that and I ask him "can I like engrave them" and he was like "you shouldn't have come to the store for that bought it online" I was like okay maybe he have a bad day Engrave is not that important. I say "Never mind I would like to take it like that" and he was like okay he ask for my card and everything just fine them I ask "would you like to pay for guarantee of you product" I say "how much would it be" he say "you want it or no?" I was like "no" I don't understand what was going on... then I pay he send me everything by email and then when I was about to leave he say " if anything happens to your products don't come back again crying for help" I was like WTF is going on with you ? But I don't want to fight so just left. Worst experience ever. Customers should be trate with respect since they bought products and should be your priority at the selling time. read more

If I could give it a lower rating I would. Be prepared to wait in line for half an hour ONLY to make an appointment for an hour later and then when you walk in you will not get any service. The people working there are not only rude but ignorant. read more

I got MacBook Air. They were so helpful and friendly.Especially Louis helped me to decide what I need. When you just walk around they come to you and ask you to help about what you are looking for. Which is great. Because store doesn't mean only sell stuff. It's also means good service. That's why they got 5 stars from me. read more

Apple Queens Center - Electronics Near Me - Elmhurst, New York

Apple is known for the good customer service in their stores. They missed the mark here. This is a horrible store to shop in and get tech support. Stay away. Staff is not rude but they are disinterested in helping you find a solution to a problem. It is just a paycheck. read more

I only bought this mobile phone for a month, and now the battery capacity is 98%. I have reported the battery problem to the store, because the battery is consumed too fast, which is not what a new mobile phone should have, but the store said there was no problem and did not give me any solution. A company as big as you still have to shirk responsibility for such a small problem! read more

Terrible customer service. I have purchased MacBook with a pick up and asked a guy who brought my order to make a trade-in. Instead of helping me with that he answered that somebody would come to me. Then they forgot about me completely and didn't even react when I asked somebody to come. This company doesn't value their custome read more

I have nothing bad I could say for anyone who works here!! After a disastrous visit to Best Buy geek squad I made an appointment here for the Iphone 6s battery change. Our rep was Eddie who was the nicest, most professional technician you can find! He explained everything he was doing: showed us all the diagnostic findings and educated us on our choices. We elected to change the batteries on our phones and he gave us all the info, times we can expect it to be done. It was exactly on time as he said! Since we had time to waste and we are debating on upgrades and other purchases, we asked few reps about other products. EVERYONE was helpful, ready and really eager to help!!!! This is the ONLY place to go for anything APPLE!!! You won't regret it! If I could, I would give them 10 stars!! Thank you to all of you at the Apple store! Thanks Eddie!!!! You're the BEST! read more

The worst apple store. Waiting for Genius Bar appointment more than 2 hrs. If you want to fix your iPhone, try Grand Central Terminal. They're nice and fast, friendly and very professional. This store is always busy and crowded and disorganized. I always go to Grand Central Terminal Apple Store. They're nice and always organized. read more

When I finally did find 3 salespeople who were available, they did not stop gossiping about their manager, even in front of me. One reluctantly helped me, while the other 2 continued to complain about how they were being persecuted. I spent $1000 on a phone, but they couldn't be bothered to answer a question after I paid. Please, just go to another location to get the products you want. read more

Waited about 30 minutes for my turn at the genius bar because my camera was broken. The person who assisted me was professional and polite. Since my phone was under warranty they replaced my camera in an hour and a half. I'm only disappointed because I had only agreed to changing the camera but I got my phone back with a new display. My old display had a $40 dollar ZAGG screen protector on it and they refused to give me a new screen protector after changing my display (which was not even cracked!) I guess just be firm with what you want. read more

The staff here is amazing. I purchased a MacBook air a few months ago. Sadly I managed to crack the screen. (Seriously unsure of how it happened). I came in the store in a bad mood, after I made my appointment I went to get food and had to abandon my food cause it wasn't ready yet and I got a text they were ready for me. The agent remained professional while I went on my angry rant. I was having a bad day and it showed (terrible I know). The agent pointed out what may have caused the cracked screen and even offered to let me go get my food ( he seen the stress)... this alone literally made my day 100 times better. The service at this store is stellar. read more

Ordered something online and the security let me know exactly where to wait. The rep let the people in line in and told us where to stand, I waited a little bit then one the reps came to help me. His name was Justin and he was super helpful and nice. Made sure to get my order and even asked if I needed any help or had questions. I'm sure people have bad experiences here but I can't imagine how annoying customers must get. I was in and out with everyone being super chill and helpful. Make sure to set up appointments this place is always busy. It's an apple store in the busiest mall in queens read more

When I make a reservation for a repair online I expect to be seen or at least have someone tell me they'll be with me shortly. That did not happen here. I had a 5:15 reservation, showed up early at 4:50 knowing I would have a wait. I was told to sit on the side until it was closer to 5:15. Its now 5:25 and I'm still sitting to the side when the worker comes up to me asking what time my reservation was for, so basically he forgot about me and didn't check me in. Then he tells me to sit in one of the seats around where the technicians come to help. I waiting until 6:00 for someone to come up to me and help me, after having to ask the worker who was helping the woman next to me. Learned my lesson on going at that time! read more

I broke my screen, made an appointment for 6:30. At 6:30 I was seen and she was more then helpful she answered all my crazy questions ( I'm not a Tec person). She even saved me money on my data. I know Apple stores get a bad rep bc of the wait but trust me they have your best interest. read more

I came here twice so far: once to bring in my Mac(air) to be fixed, and once to retrieve my fixed Mac. I scheduled an appointment the night before using Apple's website, which was easy to navigate and pinpointed the Apple Stores in NY with genius bars (staff who are trained to fix Apple products) and requested very basic information to speed up the process such as which Apple product you need help with (Mac desktop, iPhone, iPad, etc.) and the general problem (Battery troubleshooting, not starting up as expected, "other" and more). Then it directed you to the time slots available for the next couple of days. All of the morning appointments for the next day were booked, so I scheduled one for 1:45PM on a Saturday. I arrived a couple minutes late, but it was no problem and they told me to take a seat and wait for one of their staff members to get to me. I assume this was because I scheduled an appointment after looking at the previous reviews, because my wait time was NOT ridiculously long... It was 10, maybe 15 minutes. Yeah, it was still kind of long but that store was packed and I saw several employees going around helping people who were there before me which is totally fine. When one of their employees got to me, I explained that my MacAir had a battery problem and would randomly shut off even at 20% or 40% remaining charge. The guy who helped me plugged in some thingamajig into my laptop and went out of his way to get a charger to make sure it wouldn't randomly power down, and the thingamajig diagnosed the problem which was indeed an issue with the physical battery. He said that I had two options: I could leave it as is, despite having a horrendously low battery life, if I didn't need to carry it around much or left it plugged in most of the time which is what many customers do, or I could replace it for ~$120 and I would have a fully functioning battery. I opted to replace my battery since I plan on using it to take notes and work in class, and he said that my Mac would be fixed in approximately 3-5 days. I got an email only two days later (Monday) saying that my Mac was fixed and ready to be picked up, and I just picked it up today *without* an appointment and it took a maximum of 10 minutes because the employee who retrieved and gave it to me just had to double check that I was the owner and make sure I paid for the battery replacement, after helping the people who arrived before me. It was a very smooth process and in the end I have my fixed MacAir ready for the school year and a nice backpack(?) they gave to me to carry it home. tl;dr Just make an appointment on the Apple Store website. It takes maybe two minutes of your time and can save you hours. I did it and my wait time was 10-15 minutes compared to the other Yelpers who said they had to wait 2.5+ hours. The service is great here and the Apple employees seem to be very well trained. read more

Wonderful experience today at the Apple store. Customer service here feels like your friendly neighborhood store.

So as you can see from my last review I wasn't happy with my experience at this Apple Store. Well that has definitely changed. I was having more problems with my Powerbeats so I had no choice but to go back to this store. To make a long story short I had to go back twice more. Each time I went back they were friendly very knowledgeable and did everything in their power to help me. I'm not sure why I was having so many problems with my Powerbeats but that's not the fault of anyone at this store. They replaced my Powerbeats with the buttons earphones. I've only had them a couple of days and so far so good. I have a apple 7 plus so I decided to buy some Bluetooth earplugs to go with my new phone. I bought the New Powerbeats. For a few weeks they worked great but then all of a sudden they wouldn't turn on. I would have to go into settings on my phone and manually turn them on. I've been to the Apple Store three times to get someone to look at them. All three times I was told speak with the man outside of the store. All three times I was told the wait is a hour, two hours and once I was told three hours. The funny thing is they will take your money to buy something asap but if you have a problem totally different experience. If you buy something there hope and pray you don't have a problem with it. read more

I recently cracked my screen and came here being that they are the only Apple store in Queens. I had a previous horrible experience so I was kind of dreading come back but didn't want to trek it into the city. I was pleasantly surprised by how friendly the team members were this time around. The visit was fine and my phone was repaired in about an hour. Everything was fine when I left the store. Later that night a thin red line appeared on my screen and I could not for the life of me get rid of it. It was kind of annoying to have to go back and get it fixed which is why I didn't give them 4 stars as I originally planned. I HIGHLY recommend making a Genius Bar appointment ahead of time because without it the wait can be up to 2 hours. I came out of necessity but they're not at the top of my list of Apple stores. Grand central location is def the way to go! read more

This is the worst Apple Store, EVER! it's always been packed and staffs are not helpful. This past Sunday, I want to buy a iPhone 7 plus for my mom for Mother's Day gift, i first saw there was a line outside of the store with 4-5 customers waiting in line, so I ask the Apple staff, an Asian Filipino looking young girl who's helping to organize the line, How long is the waiting time ? She answered me THREE HOURS. I was like excuse me?! 3 hours to get in to the store? I double confirm with her, she was like yeh 3 hours and giving me the attitude. Seriously, what's wrong with that girl? If u don't like your job, Quit! Stop spreading your negative to customers, I was there to give you business NOT for your attitude. read more
