Had to drop in unexpectedly to repair my iPad. Was worried as I wasn't able to secure an appointment, but was very pleasantly surprised as they worked me right in within 15 minutes. It's a busy store and can get a bit hectic sometimes, but their genius team is always ready to help out Apple users. Customer Service (5/5): Was greeted immediately and an appointment was scheduled as a walk in. Store (5/5): the store is well organized with items in good order. Price (5/5): It is expected that you will pay a premium price for any products here. read more

Had another frustrating experience here. I went in as I just could not get my Apple Watch to sync with my iPhone no matter what I tried. Instead of receiving any immediate assistance, I was told I had to wait a couple days for a Genius Bar appointment. It was strange as there were numerous employees just standing around. When I returned for my appointment, I was told my Apple ID needed to be reset and it would take another hour before I could be helped. Rather than waiting even longer, I went home and ended up figuring out the problem myself. This was not an isolated experience. I've had long waits at this location before. For a company known for customer service, you would think they would have a much more efficient process. read more

I had a great experience at the Apple Store. My older--but still expensive--headphones developed an issue, and I expected to be encouraged to buy a new pair. Instead, the staff took the time to evaluate them and arranged to have them repaired at no charge. The entire process was smooth, and when I got them back, they worked like new. I really appreciated that the focus was on helping me rather than making a sale. The customer service was professional, honest, and efficient. I'm very pleased with the experience and highly recommend the Apple Store. read more

I made the mistake of trying to visit this location again. I recently ordered 5 new Apple Watches for the family with these belkin power banks. The power banks were canceled. I tried local delivery again and they canceled. I went to the store and was told they might have them in the back but I can't buy that many at once because it's not fair to other customers. So I bought 5 watches but can't get 5 accessories for the watches. Make this make sense? Avoid this location. read more

I've been shopping at the Apple Store since basically the beginning of time, back when iPods were cutting-edge and not retro collectibles. Between personal and business purchases, I've probably spent enough to personally sponsor a section of their glass walls. So when I say this was my worst experience ever, I mean it. So here's the adventure. I'm at work, my wife calls and says her iPad is full. Easy. I hop on Apple's site, load up a top-of-the-line iPad with all the extras. Then I decide to finally do something about the fact that I'm deaf in my right ear, so I add AirPods Pro to double as "hearing aids." I even add engraving to the headphones so I know which ones are mine at home... because apparently my master plan is to label the only thing I can't hear out of. Anyway, everything shows as available for same-day pickup, so I decide to swing by the Apple Store Santan Village on the way home and avoid the whole "who's signing for packages" situation. I walk in, ready to grab my stuff. And immediately become invisible. I try one employee, they turn and talk to someone else. Try another, same thing. At this point I'm genuinely wondering if this is a social experiment or if I actually don't exist. Eventually I find someone who helps. Nice enough guy. I hand him my order to scan. He doesn't scan it. He asks what I ordered. I tell him. He then realizes he should probably scan it. We're really firing on all cylinders here. He goes to grab my stuff, disappears, and someone else comes out with just the iPad. I ask about the AirPods. "No headphones." I show them the order. "Oh... yeah, there are headphones." He goes back again, comes out and says they're not ready yet. Not ready? I got an email saying they were ready. Turns out because they were engraved, they're not actually there and won't be for a few days. Which is impressive, because the website made it sound like everything was good to go. So now the solution is to cancel the order and just buy them again in-store. Perfect. Nothing like redoing a transaction you already completed. I cancel it. The guy helping me immediately turns to help someone else, so I get to stand there again, waiting for round two. Eventually we redo the purchase, and magically, non-engraved headphones appear instantly. So to recap, the one item I specifically customized is the only one that didn't exist, and the only reason I added engraving was so I wouldn't mix up the headphones I literally bought because I can't hear well. Solid system. End result: I spent thousands of dollars and somehow felt like I was inconveniencing everyone just by asking for help. And here's the real kicker. I didn't walk in expecting to spend a small fortune. I had already spent the fortune. I just showed up to pick it up. I'll take my business to Chandler Fashion Center or Scottsdale Fashion Square next time, where hopefully acknowledging customers is still part of the experience. Avoid this location like it just told you your storage is full. read more

Went to the Apple Store and was having a great experience until a rep Michelle or nashell assisted me whatever her name was.

My experience at this apple was terrible in the beginning. I just purchased very expensive laptop. I was getting my information transferred over to the new one. I went to pick it up the guy I wish I could remember his name was just so dry and trying to hurry me out the door, not showing me anything about how my information came over. He told me to check it on my own time.. Luckily, I checked it before I left because they had changed my password and I couldn't get in it. The second young man that came to help me was extremely helpful he walked me through the whole process And made sure my computer completely worked before I left. But the first guy I really wish I can remember his name was terrible and should not be working there until he gets a better attitude. read more

I had to take in my older iPad Pro because it stopped charging. Arrived early for the appointment with the Genius bar and was helped right away. After checking the system and going through the diagnostics, Jamie (I don't know if I have the right name, apologies to the nice man who helped if this isn't your name) did a hard reset and voilà my tablet works again :) I was thinking of buying the newer Air iPad with the M3 chip: unfortunately, there were none with the 1Tb I needed, and the 512 GB just isn't enough. The store was busy being a Saturday, but there were many helpers so no one seemed to wait for long. This store is the one I've been going to since buying my first Apple watch many years ago: still my favorite.... even though I didn't get the 1TB ;) read more

This morning my daughters IPhone just blacked out and would not come on. If you have an IPhone this has probably happened to you or someone you know. They have a quick fix online but it rarely works. Like any kid of this generation my daughter was in shambles over this. She spent a whole day with no phone access. Around 5 pm I finally gave up on trying to fix the issue myself and we hauled off to this Apple Store. As we walked out the door I could hear my mother-in-law yell, you need an appointment or they won't help you. We went anyways. It took a little while to get someone to help us out, but it's to be expected considering the volume of business that had in there and I was a walk in. The guy finally asked if I was being helped and without an appointment helped me anyways. He quickly diagnose the problem and offered us several options for resolution. He was quick, courteous, and efficient. Can't ask for more than that on a Tuesday night. read more

The Apple store at SanTan Village has terrible customer service I have always had a good experience here but lately it's terrible. Customer service reps treat you like you are asking for free stuff or begging, not shopping for an expensive iPhone I have been there twice in a week and had the same experience, bad customer service, not interested in selling you, treating you like they are doing you a favor and having you wait standing by the phones like flies as they can't even put your name on a list I have bought several items here but not anymore, I will go somewhere else Management; need improvement fast, Teach you sales force to be courteous, interested, and with desire to give good impressions to customers read more

Two days ago, I scheduled a Same-day battery replacement appointment with the Genius Bar. It was at 5:20 pm. I showed up and checked in within 5 minutes of that appointment time. Then, I waited. And waited. And waited. After over an hour and ten minutes, a gentleman finally started helping me and informed me that it would NOT be a same-day replacement, and that the appointment was just for a same day diagnostic. That is NOT what the appointment says- so not only are you insulting my intelligence, you're disrespecting my time. I guess I'm going with a 3rd party replacement because Apple can't get their own act together. read more

Terrible customer service. Super inefficient whole goal is to make you scan the store so that you buy their products. They do not respect your appointment times or your time as a customer at all. Great people great products but had to leave a review about their service. read more

Everything. First their phones suck. I swear they make them take a shit so you have to buy new one. You schedule an appt then you get there wait for ever then they tell you 30-45 more mins more. It's a joke. But they can sale you a new phone real fast of course. Bring back blackberry read more

Very unimpressed with the SanTan Village staff. Went in on 11/28 to get the back of my phone fixed - it was shattered. Was told to come back at 5pm and when I went back I was then told there was an issue during the repair that the workers had broke something and now had to fix that so I needed to come back in 2 hours. Since 11/28 I have had issues with cellular data not working and when running the diagnostic like my phone told me to do, it said there was an issue with the iPhone hardware. So I went in yesterday - 1/3 - and was "helped" by Quintin. Quintin told me that there was not a single issue with my phone and could not explain why my cellular data stops working. He also told me that he spoke to the technicians who did the back repair on my phone and they told him they did not damage anything during the repair. Not sure how the technicians would remember a singular repair from 2 months ago. And Quintin, or Q as he told me to call him, did not believe anything that I was saying because he already had a whole speech planned. After running a test on my phone in the back he came out and said "So I need to ask you a few clarifying questions before I share the results with you." Which is when he said that nothing had been broken during the old repair and tried to tell me that the reason my cellular data does not work is because of my college town. Except the funny thing is, my phone does this in my college town, in my home town, and wherever I travel to. He also told me that I tried to contact Apple Support for help and that they were the one who told me my hardware had an issue. This is not true as I told him the "Apple Support" was me running the diagnostic to see what the issue was which then lead me to make an appointment at Apple San Tan Village. I am going to now make a drive when I need help at Apple because I will not be going back to SanTan Village Apple. In the photo, at home diagnostics were ran - can clearly see where it says there is an issue with the hardware. And the upper right corner you can see my cellular is not working therefore I had to connect to WiFi. read more

What an arrogant and shitty business model they have. I've had facial recognition issues with both phones so stopped in for help. Was approached by an absolutely snide and arrogant lady asking what I needed. I told her my issue and asked for help. Of course she came right back with, not even looking up from her tablet, and asked if I had an appointment. I told her that I did not. She then told me the earliest they could help me would be about 40 minutes. I asked why I had to make an appointment and come back since I personally witnessed 3 other employees just standing around. She rudely told me that no one was available to help. This will be my last interaction with an Apple Store as I will be moving to an alternate phone. We don't work for you and have to always work our schedules for your convenience. We are your customers and pay your salaries. DO BETTER APPLE so you don't keep hemorrhaging customers. Absolutely pathetic! read more

Staff member did not listen to my concern. Not helpful. Hard to tell if she knew anything.

I placed an online order from Apple for pick up at this store. As you know, nothing made by Apple is cheap $ I arrived at the store with my order number and they could not locate my order because it was processing. They direct me to call customer support which only redirects me to the store. That's all the help the "specialist" could do. All these geniuses are far from that. Instead, there are at least a half dozen of them standing around talking to each other while I still have a paid transaction and no product. read more

These experiences at the Apple Store keep getting worse and worse because instead of looking at the culture Apple has created in these stores by hiring people who are openly biased against certain demographics of people and allowing them to pick and choose who they help because of whatever reason like skin color or "vibes" is absolutely disgusting and I hate going to these stores and having to be subjected to this horrible treatment because I need my device repaired. Grow up Apple be PROFESSIONAL. Today when I went to the Apple Store it seemed like they made me wait specifically for a black person because I am black, that is racist and disgusting. Even though I was on time I had to wait longer than people who were walking in because for no other reason than the color of my skin. I'm gonna start transitioning from these products because it's apparent Apple is biased against certain demographics and it's evidential based on the representation or lack there of in their staff. 0/10 WOULD NOT RECOMMEND. read more

Jon alone deserves five stars!! Came in the other day with my phone destroyed from falling off the fourth store of our building and he was so helpful, quick and efficient! I think I was in and out in less than 20 minutes!!! Only reason I gave four instead of five is because most other times there is a longer wait/takes wayyy longer read more

What an awful experience. Their 'check-in' service is a joke. If they want to help you, they do. If they don't want to help you, you go on a list. Good luck with that. When we finally got someone to help us, we had to share the expert with 3 other customers. And to top it off, they couldn't get our new phones working. Just avoid this location if you can. read more

I've been here many times to purchase phones, laptops for myself and my family but never to fix an issue/use the Genius Bar. Walked in today to fix my work cell phone which stopped working, no appointment just tried my luck. I was told the wait for 30 minutes but it was more like 20. I was paired with Alex, who was kind, attentive and patient with me, he easily resolved my issue within minutes and answered all of my questions. Excellent customer service from everyone who I interacted with at this location! read more

Team Member Moon brought the sunshine out with her customer service. The store is clean with an easy flow of customers getting quick assistance.

Dope vibrations from Moon making it a great start to a Thursday. This location is an exterior store within the Santan Village Marketplace. read more

Customer service. I purchased an Apple Watch but they gave me the wrong g sized watch and didn't realize until I got all the way home. I tried to call store but of course they only gave AI answering phones. So I drove all the way back. Was greeted only with disdain for explaining to associate how inconvenient it was to be sold the wrong product and have to drive all the way back. She just ignored me and processed the return. I asked to speak with a manager: she didn't care either about their mistake and expressed no remorse over the inconvenience. I think I will be exploring other watch brands read more

Unfortunately I have been here twice this month , two large purchases . Both times I have been passed around to 5-6 employees for an online pick up . When I receive "its ready text " , I show up and have to keep repeating myself I have an online order to each staff member . I feel like a pinball in pinball machine game . Also , the staff is very hard to recognize these days . They look very casual, borderline way too casual / wrinkled clothing / tight shorts / unbrushed hair etc .. Also if they are wearing a red shirt , they cover with a jacket / sweater , has you questioning who to ask for assistance when you walk in . A lot of the staff do not greet you when you try to make eye contact / do not knowledge when you are standing in front of them . I am Not sure if this is from Apple training or just some jerky employees . If someone was standing in front of me I would said hello LOL . I will say , I appreciate that the store seems to be fully stocked on all products ( so far in all my experiences with this location ) read more

I brought the brand new 16 Pro Max on the first day when it came out and for some reason my camera it's really blurry. I brought it to the Apple Store and they told me I have unlimited AppleCare program, but they cannot replace the new phone for me. Just order the camera when they have it. They will call me but it's been two weeks. I haven't heard anything about them, what a bad service read more

Could have helped me recover my lost Apple password... instead gave me a website to go to.

Let us talk yo a live person. I want to make an appointment at ss. Tan mall in Mesa Az at iPhone store.

Boy, I wish I'd read some of these reviews before I made the 20+ mile trek each way yesterday morning to request help setting up my new Apple Watch SE!! I haven't visited an Apple Store for quite some time (testament to the quality of their products & online customer service), but I felt I would really benefit from some in person education & assistance in setting up my new watch. I spent quite a bit of time the day before preparing a list of questions so that I could get & record the needed answers & guidance with my first smart watch. I was greeted immediately on entering & though the store was relatively busy, I was directed to another employee to assist me. Things went quickly downhill from that point!! The employee (I refuse to call him a "genius"!!) was rude & distracted!! He told me that I should attend their hour long "Smart Watch" class to be held next week. And from that point on, only gave me the briefest of answers to my questions. Perhaps the reason for his terseness & uncaring attitude was that he was "helping" another couple (snowbirds) at the same time with problems they were having setting up their phones. I really felt bad for them because all he would tell them was that they had to contact their cell phone carrier (TELUS) for assistance. I hope they found someone else in the store to assist them!! Personally, after dealing with his condescending & dismissive attitude for less than 15 minutes, I had had enough!! I browsed the store for a bit, observing that other "senior" customers were treated similarly & decided that I will not be visiting that store again. Perhaps another location will be better, but for now, I've managed to figure out enough things on my own (with the help of several YouTube videos!) that I think I can enjoy my watch, though I may not be using it to its full potential. All in all, a very disappointing experience!! PS - And no, I did not have an "appointment" as trying to book one online was beyond confusing as I didn't want to send anything for repair or purchase something new. read more

I had an appointment for some warranty work. I was greeted immediately, despite the store being full of people. I was checked in and sent to the "waiting area" and was met at my appointment time by an employee who collected my information and device. I was quoted a time to return and pick it up. When I returned at the appointed time, I checked in and had my repaired device in my hands within 5 minutes. Everyone I dealt with was friendly and professional and the work fixed my issue. I highly suggest making an appointment! read more

I am having issues with my iPhone 12 Mini. I've had my phone for about 2-3 months and I brought it into Apple within the first two weeks. They did their diagnostics and supposedly that solved the problem (according to them). I continued to have issues with my WiFi connectivity but I did NOT want to go back to Apple because it's never a good customer experience. Today (5/14/21) I decided to make an appointment to do a warranty exchange because the wifi connectivity issues keep persisting and more frequently. I arrive for my appointment 20 minutes early and I am greeted by the representative outside. She asks why I am there and if I have an appointment. I tell her and she tells me I made the wrong appointment. She asked if I'd like to have her teach me how to make an appointment! I was so turned off by her condescending question that I grew furious. I said I don't need to be taught anything. What I need is for the Apple web site to be written correctly. I insisted that I show her the Apple site. I showed her and she agreed it was confusing because none of the options for an appointment type led me to what I needed to do. I was given a 1:40 PM appointment instead of my 11:00 AM appointment! I captured two screen shots to show that the Apple site is indeed confusing and not clear which appointment type should be selected if a customer wants to do a warranty exchange. Please notice that when "session with a specialist" is selected there is an option for "returns and exchanges." HOW IS THE LAY PERSON WHO DOES NOT WORK FOR APPLE SUPPOSED TO KNOW WHICH APPOINTMENT TYPE TO SELECT IF A WARRANTY EXCHANGE IS WHAT THEY WANT TO DO? Maybe the the person or persons who need some teaching work at APPLE!!! read more

I bought an Apple Watch SE here Friday June 30th, 2023. I was in and out of the door quick. I decided to set everything up at home because I thought it'd be simple and easy. The next day I tried to set everything up on my phone and I was trying to pair my watch to my phone. For some odd reason I couldn't get it to connect. I swear I did this like 50 times lol. I went back to the Apple Store that same day. As I walked in I noticed they seem kind of busy. Eric greeted me right away anyways and asked if I needed some assistance. I told him the issue and he even apologized even though it wasn't his fault. Now that's great customer service!! I spent about an hour in that store and he kept me entertained while he was trying to help me with my Apple Watch. He made conversations with me and even made me laugh a few times. It wasn't awkward at all. I haven't had great customer like that in a long time. Thank you Eric for treating me as if I was your family. I was glad to have my Apple Watch paired up with my phone.. I told Eric having an Apple product can sometimes be difficult and he agreed. He even mentioned to me that they have classes there at the Apple Store if I was ever interested to learn more about my phone. I never knew they even had a class. It was nice to know. I will definitely be back here if I ever need to purchase any new apple products in the future again. read more
