    saw this place on linustechtips, gotta say this place is a gem. Price seems fair and the employees seem willing to negotiate.

    We initially went to MicroCenter Tustin to purchase a PC for my son. We were going to get the parts…read morethere and have MC build it. After meeting with Mario and pricing out the parts and build for a new PC, it was clear the PC purchase would have been over budget. Mario recommended a prebuilt PC from them called PowerSpec. He showed us the G535 and it had everything we wanted in a gaming PC but for almost $500 off the retail price if we had PC built. I asked why was it cheaper and Mario told us the PC was built before the rise in prices on the memory and GPU. We then met with James Tran who showed us the G535. I noticed they had an open box PC. James explained to us the open box was a return for resale at a cheaper price. It was $100 cheaper. We bought the PC and took it home. Unfortunately all was not well with the PC. When playing two different games, (Marvel Rivals & Ark: Survival Ascended) the PC freezes for 10 seconds and reboots to the desktop. I tried troubleshooting by playing two different Benchmarks and lowering the GPU graphics, deleting and reinstalling updated drivers and lowering video resolutions but to no avail. Every time my son would play the games the PC froze and rebooted. This lead me to believe there are hardware issues with the PC. Luckily the PC was still within their 14 day return policy for returns, exchanges and refunds. We decided we did not want to have their techs try to diagnose the problem with the PC and just return and exchange for a new one. MC's return and exchange process was very simple. You go online to their website, log into your account and file a return. You are given a QR code and just then head to MC. When we arrived (the nearest MC is Tustin which is 2 hours away), we met with James Tran again who helped us with the process. I explained to James what the issues were with the PC. He told us the option of walking over to their Tech area of the store and having their guys try and diagnose the PC. I told James we would rather just exchange it for a new one. James understood our situation and spoke with his manager who allowed us to exchange the return for a new PC at the open box price so we did not have a to pay the difference. MicroCenter staff especially their managers (forgot their names) along with Mario and James Tran were awesome. They truly satisfied our experience at their Tustin store and made our teenager son very happy. So far everything is working properly with the replacement PC. I'll do a follow up if things change. Thank you again MicroCenter!

I wanted to donate my MacBook to someone in need and this looked like a promising solution. I was worried that making a visit on the weekend to their tech bar for the donation process would be really busy and result in a long wait, but to my surprise I was helped very quickly! Queueing and "checking out" was quick, as the team member just needed to register my device and provided me with a receipt for tax purposes.

    I'm not sure why this location has several bad reviews. I went yesterday, on Mother's Day, to get a…read morenew computer and printer, and everyone was super helpful and attentive. I needed a very basic all in one computer and 3 in 1 printer. As soon as I arrived I was immediately greeted by the lovely Matthew who was wearing an HP badge and said "I'm The Printer Guy but I'm also a huge nerd so I can help you!". And he did. 30 min later I walked out with exactly what I needed. No upsell, no pushing extras, just a very affordable all in one to serve my at home needs. Issac, the cashier was also super helpful and friendly, he went to the back to locate the model I needed. So I'm not sure why all the hate. These reviews almost scared me away, I'm glad I went anyway. Don't be worried, my experience was 10/10.

    I scheduled an appointment specifically to have the cracked screen on my iPhone replaced, so they…read moreclearly knew what the appointment was for ahead of time. When I arrived, the Best Buy rep told me they first needed to run a diagnostic to make sure the screen could even be replaced. No problem. A few minutes later, he tells me, "Great, it passed the diagnostic. The only thing I'm concerned about now is whether we actually have the screen in stock because we've been short on inventory." And of course... they didn't have it. So you mean to tell me I scheduled an appointment specifically for a screen replacement, drove all the way there, waited for the diagnostic, and only THEN you decided to check whether you even had the screen available? Why couldn't someone check inventory beforehand and call me? Or at the very least, check as soon as I arrived for my appointment? Complete waste of time and extremely poor planning. Ridiculous.

    First time coming to HB Computers and it was a wonderful experience. I was looking around for a…read morereasonable price to fix my PC after I accidentally deleted some drivers. They were super helpful from the start. Did a full diagnostic to figure out the issue, reinstalled Windows, updated everything, and even cleaned my device while I was there -- that was a nice plus I didn't expect. I also asked about missing bolts for my PC case and they actually took the time to look for some at the store for me. Most places wouldn't bother. Pricing was fair: paid a diagnostic fee to find the problem, then $130 to fix everything. Other shops quoted me way higher just to look at it. No upselling, just honest work. Highly recommend if you're in HB. I'll definitely be back for any computer issues.

    **Outstanding Service at HB Computers!**…read more I highly recommend **HB Computers**. I purchased my Lenovo laptop from Amir a few years ago, and I've been extremely happy with it. The price was very reasonable, and the laptop has worked great and been very reliable. Recently, I brought it back to HB Computers to have a larger hard drive installed. **Jesus did an excellent job**--the workmanship was top-notch, and the upgrade was completed promptly and professionally. What really stands out about HB Computers is the level of customer service. **Amir, Karen, and Jesus** were all friendly, knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely helpful. It's refreshing to find a local business that provides quality products, fair pricing, excellent technical work, and great customer service even years after the original purchase. **Five stars all the way. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend HB Computers to anyone looking for a computer, an upgrade, or reliable computer service. Thank you, Amir, Karen, and Jesus!**

I figure things happen and take time so I didn't call until 2:30 pm or so to check on where the technician was. I was told that my job had "not been added to the schedule" but they would see when a tech could be there. I was then told 3:45-4:00pm. No one arrived. I called at 4:15 pm and was told they were 25 minutes away. I called at 5:01 and the voicemail said the office was CLOSED and here it is 5:15 and no one EVER ARRIVED. I realize compared to other jobs this company has, my job was small and not worth a lot of money. However, the measure of a great business is to treat small customers as well as your big customers. If you don't show up when scheduled, fail to add a job to your schedule, and keep lying to your customer about the arrival time of your tech who NEVER shows up at all...why would I trust this company with my larger corporate work? How you treat people matters, whether the job is big or small. This was unacceptable today and I did not appreciate that I had to keep calling YOUR business to find out what was going on, what happened to the tech, etc. Why aren't YOUR people communicating with customers? Why didn't anyone apologize? Why didn't anyone call before close of business to say, "Hey, we're not coming!" I was extremely unhappy because no one cared that I had taken time off work to meet the tech and no one cared enough to even CALL me and let me know what was going on. You guys dropped the ball big time here and were incredibly thoughtless and rude. Update: They just arrived at 5:36 pm. The techs themselves were GREAT and were able to do the work and complete the job. However, I wanted someone to know about the lack of transparency and communication today as it was very upsetting to me. The quality of work and the people you hired to do the actual technical job were terrific, knowledgeable and qualified. I realized it was not THEIR fault today, but I think it's important for people to know about the communication problems. I updated my review from 1 star to 3 because of the actual techs and their skills.
