    So, I'm from Indiana and my screen saver on my phone broke into smithereens. I went to my hometown Apple Store and they weren't very helpful. But, here at the Kahala Mall Apple store, they were able to replace my protector. After a short wait, Ryan, the tech, was meticulous and carefully removed and cleaned my screen and case, before putting on the new screen. He gave me the instructions for replacing the screen. He was friendly and knowledgeable. He gave me the information to register the new screen. My phone is looking like new without broken glass. I highly recommend this location, which is always busy. Parking can be challenging at the Mall. Get there early if possible.

    Apple Products seem to be one of the current life essentials. My experience at Apple has always been hit or miss with some employees being genuinely nice and others downright rude because a customer comes in already set to buy the Apple product. The products are not cheap but the functionality and appearance speaks for itself. On a Black Friday the lines were long as expected because of the gift card option. We bought a new phone online and the special gift card did not apply correctly so we ended up at the store to fix the purchase. The first two employees were super nice and fixed the issue right away. Then the experience goes downhill. We bought the phone and were shuttled to another table. The older Asian man with the mask was supposed to help. Omg...so rude..we sat and barely even started the process before he said..you should go to Verizon for the set up. Then he walks away. Someone else eventually helps out to let us know the steps and options to stay in store or do from home. We try the in-store help instead. While we were waiting another customer comes and is clearly super upset with something that happened earlier. Then older Asian apple employee with mask comes back from break. She asks him for assistance and he looks at her and said I am here to help all customers and walks away from her to ask other people if they need help. Needless to say we left without setting up our phone there but watched YouTube to update everything ourselves. So...location is clean and full of cool products. Employees need to be trained to help all customers. Also, one employee in particular should be nicer. He spoils the experience for all customers.

    Very Busy Apple Store

    I called this store directly three times today to ask if it's possible to replace my ipad screen, each time it rung until auto-hang-up. Drove there instead, and the employee told me they would have to look at my ipad to determine if it's replaceable, and they're too booked to look at it today, but I could try come back tomorrow. Then they asked how old it was and said I'd probably have to replace the whole thing. Would have been nice to know since I drove an hour today. I would rather have had them answer the phone to tell me no can. I dialed a different place and they said they can replace it for me in 24 hours, so I go somewhere else for repair.

    I have been and still continue to be an IPhone, IPad, Apple Watch user since the IPhone 3, IPad 1 and Apple Watch 2. That said, I've been the Apple Store twice in my life of Apple products. Once long ago in Emeryville, CA because my IPhone 3 screen cracked and now recently, the Apple Store in Kahala because my new phone is acting up. (Really? Is it the phone acting up or is it you Terry who may not be using it properly?) Here is my story: About 10 months ago I upgraded my phone through my line carrier (WHAT A MISTAKE) and I'm disappointed in them but that is another story and review. So my phone's Bluetooth doesn't work. Friends of mine say it's because of that I'm doing something wrong.... I can't use my new headphones because it is wireless and bluetooth friendly. I can't use my desk and home speakers and pair them to my playlist. I can't! I can't! I can't! Why? Why? Why? The answer is my cellular service company messed up when they fired up my new phone and the transfer of data etc. was done incorrectly. What? Yup!!! So what happens next? Genius Bar Pro Justin helped me get things corrected and answered many questions. In addition, he taught me that the Apple Store is a one stop shop including their ability to work with the cellular carrier. Lesson to be learned? It is not called the GENIUS BAR for nothing and those GENIUSES back there? They are not called GENIUS for nothing either!!! #applerules #allthingsapple

    Happy happy joy joy!!

    Apple a day... When my options doesn't meet my satisfaction I go to Apple and yes it keeps me happy and healthy :-) After my trip to Japan keeping up on Yelp has been my struggle even with my laptop which made the world of difference but is quite heavy to carry around so my ever so active mind thought of a wireless keyboard and have bought one online...meh! So here I am decided to see what they have to offer and was immediately greeted by a staff who showed me where to find them and gosh was surprised to see the various options and decided to get one that has a bit more options, absolutely delightfully staff who listened the reason of getting it which almost felt therapeutical of the need to purchase this item lol! Thank you!

    I brought my iPad to the Don Quijote location on the same day I inquired about screen repair. I…read morespoke to Joy which was helpful in letting me know the estimated price as well as what locations are available for same day repair. I arrived to the location at around 12:30pm (time stamp in image.) I spoke to two employees. I talked to one employee that took a look at my iPad and confirmed the price and time to pick up (2 hours). I also confirmed again with the guy who managed the payment that it would take two hours. I show up around 4:45pm and no one greets me walking in. So I walk up (five minutes later) to the first employee and asked if the tablet is ready. She told me, "Oh you're early, I just have to put on the screen." It had been 2+ hours since I dropped off so I was confused but I said I will wait till they are done. I came back around 50 minutes later and the repair is not done yet. At this point it is already 5:45pm and it has not been finished. I wait until 6:18pm and she hands me it without apologizing for the wait or anything. I regret not saying anything about the time issue but it feels conflicting because of all the things I signed and I am not sure if I am in right to. The problem is not how long it takes, but it was the misinformation about when pick up would be. I confirmed with two people that it would be ready in two hours. It came out to almost 6 hours. I would not have minded dropping it off and coming back another time, if they had communicated that. But I was told it was 2 hours so I waited there, standing in the store and not wanting to rush the employees. The repair itself is excellent but the customer service was conflicting. I paid $329.84 and expected quality care. I do wish I had a better experience because it seems others do.

    This will be a shout-out for a superstar named Rod!…read more It was time to turn the old phones in for the trade value. Owen is gone and we got a guy who was passive and seemed unconfident. Each of us needed a password to complete the factory reset (we should have done it at home where all the passwords live). Excruciating trying to execute this procedure in the hot lights of the store. We left unsuccessful. A couple days later we return and Rod (another former Verizon employee, rehired by this vendor) supported us. Confident, empathic, knowledgeable and patient. The iPhone was good to go but the Samsung needed more attention. The battery died before the reset was done but I was oblivious to that. Rod called me to let me know he would charge it try again. I had uninstalled and deleted everything plus went through some of the resetting steps, just not the full wipe. Thank you Rod!

The guy on duty at 10 AM Saturday morning either needs to be trained better or find another position. He obviously doesn't understand Android, and, rather than looking up the issue I was having, insisted there was no problem - as if the phone stuck in a system loop that drains the battery isnot an issue. That is after I showed him the article on Google that discussed the very issue I was having. I went to the Verizon store in Hawaii Kai - the man there quickly diagnosed the problem, looked up solutions, fixed the problem in less than 10 minutes and waited until we could confirm it had been solved. Five stars for Rod at Kahala. Five stars for the Hawaii Kai store. Nothing but dismay at the lack of interest, knowledge and customer service from the man I encountered yesterday at Verizon Kahala.

I prefer to get my pocket wifi before leaving for my trip so I dont have to worry about it once landing. I usually book online and get a phone confirmation. Pick up is a day before your trip at their Waikiki location. The only hard part is their pick up location, but if you bring a friend with you to wait in the car, it should be fine - or you could grab a bite in the Waikiki shopping plaza since you're already driving there! The wifi itself is easy to use. They explain to you when you pick up, but its all pretty self explanatory. The battery lasted pretty much the whole day if fully charged and is small enough to carry around with you all day without adding extra weight. You can return the wifi when you get back to Hawaii on the departures floor after getting your luggage. Would highly recommend booking for your next Japan trip!

We booked another pocket wifi…read morefor our trip to Japan earlier this year and we appreciate how we were able to booked without placing a down payment for a reservation. The pocket WiFi was different from what we used before. It was newer, thinner, and lighter. The only downside was that there's no indication on how much battery is left. You need to scan the QR code sticker on the back of the pocket WiFi and the status will be shown on your phone. It is a little inconvenient and the website to show the status was pretty wonky and in Japanese. Regardless, the WiFi was good. The signal was great when we were visiting major cities such at Tokyo and Osaka. There was an issue with connecting when we first arrived but we reset the WiFi using the paper clip pin provided in the bag. The bag included instructions, paper clip, and charger. Overall, the WiFi signal is not perfect but it is good enough to last your whole trip in Japan without any major issues. It lasted about little over 10 hours on a full charge. The pocket WiFi is convenient and pretty affordable to share among 5 people without having slow data.
