Best Buy, Union City…read more August 2026 I've been here a few times, the services wasn't good so I didn't leave any negative comments. But last night, the experience was different. I was greeted and asked if I needed help right away which was nice. Although I wasn't in an urgent in need of a power changer or phone battery, it was nice to know what they have available. So I continued to browsed around. I was also greeted at the end as I was leaving, it was a very welcoming experience. I highly recommend this Best Buy location and would come back whenever I'm in the area.

The device was listed as Fair but was missing multiple items so he was able to reduce it by $20. Truly helpful and I was excited to take it home. At the point of sale he said that the Best Buy membership was on sale and the annual fee reduced to $180 would result in a 2 year warranty for the price of one year, and I had the membership perks such as 60 day return window. This was $199 after tax. After returning home I did more research and found the warranty lasts only as long as the membership is active, so I had been purposefully deceived by the salesman. I went back to the store and was able to get a refund for the membership and then paid outright for the 2 year warranty for $180. No tax on this warranty so I had saved $19 by just paying for the warranty instead. Deceitful sales practices at this store so beware.

The entire team is professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and dependable. They have handled several repairs for us over the years, and the quality of their work has always been outstanding. I especially appreciate that they are straightforward about what needs to be repaired and communicate clearly throughout the process. One of the biggest reasons I continue coming back is their reliability. When they give me an estimated completion time, the device is always ready when promised, and the repairs are done properly. It is difficult to find a business that provides this level of consistent service, and they have definitely earned my trust over the years. I highly recommend iPhone Hut to anyone looking for reliable and professional iPhone or iPad repairs in Fremont. Excellent service every time. Thank you Raj & Sok & all staff!

When my daughter picked her phone up, she noticed the quality of the screen was very poor. The front facing camera was visually grainy which affected FaceTime, videos, and camera quality. My daughter ended up going back to have it looked at and Raj and Adeel let her know that it was her screen protector. They removed the screen protector which doesn't make sense at all, but my daughter left thinking that everything was resolved. Wrong, the quality of the front camera was still an issue with no change or improvement. She also purchased the screen protector from the store and never received a refund. She came back a third time and they ended up replacing the screen. Usually, second time's the charm right? Not this time. The quality was exactly the same. My daughter tried messaging through Yelp to find a resolution, but her messages were completely ignored. I'm disappointed in the customer service this store provided although having a good rating. My daughter had to find a more reliable and dependable store to have her screen replaced. So far, it's as new as the day we bought it. Not to mention that the new store we went to was very friendly, fast, and provided a warranty. Having to pay for another store's failure is unpleasant.

I came in looking for some help upgrading my current rig, and he was incredibly courteous, polite, and patient with me while I asked what probably felt like a million questions. I'm pretty computer illiterate when it comes to a lot of this stuff, and he took his time explaining everything without ever making me feel rushed or like I was bothering him. This is actually my third time coming back to this Central Computers, and experiences like this are exactly why. They've helped me build my NAS, they've helped me repair my rig, and now they're helping me upgrade it. Every time I've come in, the staff has been kind, helpful, and willing to take the time to actually work with me. It's just nice having a computer store where I know I can walk in, ask questions, and get genuine help from people who know what they're doing And not feel like I'm some kind of bother or they don't know what they're talking about. Thank you again, Antonio. I really appreciate your patience and all the help today. God bless.

1 Star I walked into…read moreCentral Computers with $3,000 in cash ready to buy a gaming PC 9/4/26@11:23am. I was literally asked when I walked in if I wanted to walk out with a gaming PC that day. You would think that would be the easiest sale in the world. Unfortunately, the customer service was terrible. I spent time looking at two computers and reading the brochures, which I could have done myself online. The employee helping me didn't seem knowledgeable enough to answer basic questions or actually guide me toward the right system. Meanwhile, another employee who clearly seemed more knowledgeable was standing there discussing computer specs with the employee instead of talking directly to the customer standing there with $3,000 ready to spend. At that point, I just walked out. I hope when people talk about AI eventually taking over jobs, they're talking about experiences like this. Not because I want people to lose their jobs, but because a customer should not have to teach themselves everything and then walk into a computer store just to have someone ring up the box they already picked out. If you've already done all your homework, know exactly what you want, and just need someone to hand you a receipt, maybe this place works for you. But if you're looking for someone who can actually listen to what you need, explain the differences between systems, answer questions, and help you make a $3,000 purchase, I'd look elsewhere. Terrible experience. I walked in ready to buy and walked out with my money. That's a pretty significant failure in customer service.

One less sale to a brick and mortar store. One less interaction with a human who can answer a question IRL and IRT. One missed opportunity to see and touch product for yourself. Sure you might get a sour reply. Or an agent who doesn't know a picofarad from a PC board. You might also get damaged deliveries from Amazon. Sure the return process is relatively painless, but the time spent is less productive than hammering out whatever issue it is with the store. I bought two Arduino kits from Amazon. One was damaged and couldn't be used so I searched for replacements and looked at Jameco. Their site yielded pages of replacements and alternatives. Between the selection and the descriptions, I was able to what I was looking for a a few things I didn't know I needed. Kind of like browsing at Fry's. Yes, they have minimum quantity purchases for many items. Yes, your browsing is going to be mostly online. When I went to pick up my items, the display area was basically the lobby.
