Usually going to the Apple Store isn't at the top of anyone's list. It definitely wasn't on mine but I had to write a review because I had such a positive experience with staff. My phone had been having storage issues with system data taking over about half of the storage due to an updating issue. I was nervous that the appointment was going to take forever and the fact I had my toddler with me added to my anxiety about the situation. Upon walking in, I was immediately met by a friendly individual who took my name and set up an appointment. They directed me to the wall of games that my toddler was more than pleased to be able to utilize. Ralph was helping me out with my phone and I really appreciated how kind and knowledgeable he was. He walked me through everything and assured me that we would get my phone back to being usable! While my phone was updating, he mentioned that they were starting a class instructing people how to use the Apple pen alongside the iPad and some apps they use with it. He thought it would be fun for my daughter to join while we waited for my phone to update. Cue Davion! Perhaps one of the friendliest people I've met in a long time?! He was running the class and was so kind in helping my child hold the pen and showing her how to draw on the lended iPad. She had such a fun time following along with him on the screen and doing a little bit of her own thing as well! After a bit, my phone was fixed and fully back (Thanks, Ralph)! It's funny how an experience I was completely dreading ended up being the highlight of my day! read more

People are very friendly but why does it take so long!!!! Just walked out after waiting 30 minutes for a clerk. All I wanted was to PAY CASH for a new watch!!!! Every time I've been in, it's a two hour visit. read more

Don't make people wait 40 min when they have an appt. (Why have an appt if I have to wait 40 min?). Have techs learn basic people skills.

Had really wonderful customer service here! The Genius Bar techs were thorough and great. No pressure to purchase anything. Was really impressed with the staff at this Apple location. read more

I've been going to the Omaha Apple Store since the launch of the iPad 2. Customer experience at Apple stores really depends on the attitude and competence of the employee who helps you. Years ago I had several visits where customer service was not good, so I started buying my iPhones, iPads and Apple Watches through Verizon. A couple of years ago I started having problems with Verizon activating my devices and especially with trade ins, so starting going to the Apple Store again. All my latest purchases from Apple (iPhone 15, MacBook Air M2, Mac Mini Pro M2, iPad Pro M4) have been flawless, even the ones I picked up on launch day. The Apple employees made sure my devices activated successfully and being able to trade in my old devices right at the store is a far better experience than shipping to Verizon. To have a good experience at the Apple Store, you really need to make an appointment. I think Apple deliberately set it up that way to discourage drop in visits. In my case, that works out perfectly since I do research in advance and almost always know exactly what I want before I come to the store, and usually order it online for in store pickup. If you need to try out the items before deciding, then setting up a sales appointment in advance will help eliminate frustration. read more

We are lucky to have this Apple Store in Omaha. Any time we've had upgrades to our phones or want to look at new items, it's always super easy to go look and have great customer service and simple purchase and set up. The store itself is super satisfying feeling, with so much organization and neutral tones, with pops of colors. There are little pods to sit on too if you have a spouse that's taking too long looking at all the gadgets and spending too much money! There are some little classes hosted at the Apple Store too, where you can pop in to learn more about setting up your iPhone, using your Apple Watch, and more. I think that's a really neat, free offering they have for the community. If you are looking for a new iPhone, Apple Watch, Mac or any other Apple products - definitely pop into the Apple Store to take a look at your options, have an assistant show you a few things, or check out all the fun accessories and add-ons you can pick from! read more

They're good we haven't had any issues shopping at Apple and they've been good with warranty

Great customer service ..they were very patient with us ..helping us set up 2 Apple iphones (15 pro max) we received in the mail through AT&T....they answered all our questions and backed up our phones and transferred everything ..a couple hours later we left while apps downloaded but they explained the process and what to do when we got home..they were busy but they did not rush us at all. Very well organized by sections and by what type of assistance the customers needed ...(I explained how I needed them to do everything for me and without judgement they did everything for me) Apple Store is Awesome read more

Genius Bar makes you wait after scheduling an appointment. Seating isn't great, either.

I came in with a pretty difficult issue and pretty frustrated after multiple stops trying to solve the issue. The village pointe Apple Store was my last stop to hopefully get some clarification or help. After getting an appointment set up with a different associate, I spoke with Wendi. She was fantastic. She was incredibly patient, understanding, transparent, personable, and helpful. I can't recommend her enough and she deserves some recognition!!! read more

I spoke with a girl named Delila or Dalila something along those lines. She was incredibly unprofessional and rude. She acted like she could care less about what I was there for and honestly I left empty handed strictly because of her attitude towards me. I will not be returning to in store while the risk of getting stuck with someone that ignorant. I'll continue to order online. read more

Had an appointment for 3:15. I checked in before then, and it took 15 minutes after 3:15 to help me. An appointment should mean the time you put. Its like being 15 minutes late to a party. Been here multiple times, and its all the same. read more

This store tends to be hit or miss. It all depends on the individual helping you out. Last time I was in the store I swore I would never come back again however, on my more recent visit, the individual helping me out with the guy you always want to talk to you when you have a problem with your Apple Watch! For that reason, I am giving the store three (3) stars which is an average of my two visits. Hopefully next time I come back, I'll have another five (5) star visit and I will update my recommendation for this location. read more

Blah. This place leaves a bad taste in my mouth every time I've had to visit. I've only ever had one employee that was kind to me, and to his credit he spent a very long time talking to me. However most of the "service" I've received here has been rude and/or unhelpful. If I'm going to drop a few thousand dollars on a laptop I think having people answer questions if the least they can do. For context I'm coming from using windows all my life minus my Iphone so I know very little about MAC. I'm not going into details, but I ended up NOT buying anything. I've decided if I'm going to get a laptop I'll just order it online. I normally do that just so I don't have to come here. I vote you avoid this place, plus parking sucks. read more

I left because I couldn't get service to buy a phone. I was told by the person up front to sit and wait at a table that had 1 chair (occupied), one Apple representative, and about 15 people standing around it waiting. With more people coming into the store constantly. I told 3 people in 30 minutes that I knew what I wanted, an IPhone 15 Pro Max, just needed someone to sell it to me. Many people standing around but they were selling MacBooks and other items, and obviously weren't interested in selling me a phone. I left and went home. Over 2.5 hours wasted of my day. I live an hour away. read more

I recently purchased a new iPhone through the Apple store, and so far they are the most compliant with pandemic safety measures that I have seen in Omaha. There were three security guards at the front of the store, directing customers where to go. I got to the counter and despite the spacing and plexiglass window it was easy to understand the person on the other side. Anything that the employees touch they also wiped down before handing it to you, which I really appreciate. Every one was wearing masks and gloves inside. Even with all these extra precautions, the service was still high-quality which is what I have come to expect from Apple. Overall a good experience and I appreciate them opening the store back up. read more

The people were kind and helpful but forgot to let the phone finish backing up to the cloud before they erased everything so my daughter lost several photos and videos and game data. read more

A five star place ... but will have to knock them down on this particular event (26 Sep 2015) I hold Apple particularly with a higher standard compared to other brands and expect the same with their stores and their staff. We reserved an appointment online and when the first "genius" offered her assistance, she directed me to another "genius", which directed me to another and then another. Long story short, none of the first 5 geniuses knew what was going on. IT WAS REALLY FRUSTRATING!! Honestly though--can you just spend an extra minute to ensure you're sending off your customer to the right person? WTF?! Ending on a good note...last genius was really helpful and quite knowledgeable. "I guess 1 out of 5 ain't bad" -- said NO APPLE STORE MANAGER EVER! read more

I have a love-hate relationship with the Apple store. Love the products. Hate the store. Not necessarily because of the giant screen, modern conceptual layout, or the fact that Apple stores are more "stores" than traditional retailers... What I really hate about this location has nothing to with the very helpful staff, the giant screen decoration with live art, or the fact that the whole thing glows like the mothership welcoming you home. I just really hate how busy it is. No chance you could walk in here on any given day and get someone's attention without an appointment. And even if you do make an appointment in advance, you have to drag someone away from another needy customer to let them know you're here for said appointment. (Where's a Walmart-style greeter when you need one... or, heck, even a computer to check yourself in???) Ultimately on my last visit here I was already frustrated because I had originally tried to SAVE myself the time and the drive here - holding my breath for a Crossroads Apple location - by shipping my phone away to a repair center. BIG MISTAKE. If you're considering a remote repair... listen up. Do yourself a favor, just suck it up, and make an appointment to come into the store. Bring a book too, since you won't have your phone while you're waiting. Or talk to your fellow human beings for once. But DO NOT trust the remote repair facility. (Long story short, if I had just gone into the Apple store I would've walked out the same day with a new phone... Instead of mailing away my phone... getting it back un-repaired without any explanation... then having to take it to the Apple Store anyway, and finally having to mail it away again to get it fixed.) So to sum up. We need another Apple store. But the one we have is better than mailing away your phone for repair. And for the love of god, make sure you have an appointment. read more

Super friendly! Took the time to answer my questions and explain how to use things if I needed it. I recommend them. An appointment is best just do to the busyness of the place. They also took the time to help me find the laptop I was looking for with memory size I wanted! It was no small feat. . Everyone I made contact with treated me kindly and when my sales guy was in the back picking up my laptop others offered to help. read more

Stay away! I purchased a new iPhone 15 from Verizon. Had issues immediately. Went back and they sent me to 5e Apple Store. Three trips later and three calls into Apple Support has made me realize that they are no longer interested in actually helping their customers for fear of losing the almighty dollar! There was a time when you could get a phone for a couple hundred dollars. Now they are in the thousands and the techs best advice is to not use it. Sadly, everything I own is an Apple product. Of course, my phone can't communicate with my watch, computer or iPad. I guess it's time to start converting! read more

Honestly I could care less about going in to an Apple Store.....however, Chris made my time and experience wonderful! He was fun to chat with and very knowledgeable. When we were waiting for my phone to transfer, we sat and just talked for an hour! Very very pleasant! So I'd rate the store like a 3 but Chris gets 5 read more

worst experience ever with Apple Store what a joke. Was told on the phone when making the appointment that repair would take one hour. ended up taking 3.5 hours, what a waste of my time! Unfortunately they are the only game in town for iPhone repair! read more

I came as a walk in to get my wife's phone repaired understanding walk in's take longer. When we arrived I was directed to he scheduler who kindly took my information and problem description and told me it would be 45 - 60 min. He also said I would be notified as soon as a tech was available via text message. Knowing I would get an alert and that I had at least 45 min I took the kids to eat. We returned 60 min later and when I asked for an eta I was told it would be another 45 min??? When asking why another 45 min it was explained that scheduled appts take precedence over walk ins and oh that time is just an estimate. Way to take ownership . I get that 100% that scheduled appts should come 1st, but why tell a customer 45 - 60 min if you are not going to meet that schedule? The rep was completely unapologetic and didn't seem to care about my concerns. This would be a 1 star review but my kids were very happy to play with the iPhones sitting around. It is now 90 min from my initial check in and nothing . This is not a very good experience. Customers are also making arraignments to come to get service and have to schedule around it. Please work on setting the correct expectation read more

The two employees that helped me were literally the nicest people ever - the first gentleman that greeted me at the door was so kind and helpful and then Sydney literally fixed the problem in like 16 seconds. She also took the time to explain how she could easily fix it; the whole experience just made me feel like they were so happy to help. High of my day they were seriously so awesome! read more

The Apple Store workers are sooo rude and don't know how to do there job. All they want you to do is buy a new phone they want money and not help you. The workers need better training. worst experience ever. Never going back they were awful. Apple is not the same and needs to have better works because all of them are stupid. Don't waste your time going to the Apple Store they aren't helpful. read more

I get that this Apple Store is busy, but don't tell me to make an appointment if you're going to make me wait an extra 30-40 minutes anyways! My appointment was for 10:55 am, and it is currently 11:30 and I haven't been helped yet. The people working here wait around and talk to each other instead of helping customers and are more concerned with themselves and their conversations then helping the customers paying thousands of dollars for their products. read more

Wow! What a super disappointment. I went out to purchase a new phone and was met with nothing but barriers to resolve my situation which took over an hour with multiple representatives that did not seem to have a full grasp of their product line or the product's capabilities. I ended up leaving the store with a credit to my initial purchase. Further, pricing of everything, including accessories was off the charts. I went around the corner to the AT&T store at Village pointe and was able to purchase the exact same phone, received phenomenal service, and great discounts on accessories. I was out the door of the AT&T store in less than 20 minutes for the same item with much better service than received at the Apple store. read more

It's the only Apple store in Omaha, so of course it is MUCHO crowded all the time. Everything we have bought from here was an easy no fuss purchase, and the staff have always been fairly helpful. The last time I was there with my puppy, waiting outside in the cold for daddy to finish up, they invited me inside, dog and all. Thats good service! read more

Horrible snobby guy working the front door. Reminded me of an old bouncer at a relevant nightclub back in the day. The one with the very important clipboard waiting to tell you sorry...you're not on the list. He tells me it will be an hour and a half wait to look at my phone. It's Monday afternoon... half a dozen workers are standing around in pairs doing literally nothing . I said how about any of those people, can one of them help me? He said NO They are in SALES! I said well, if they are selling the product then they should certainly know how it works. I'll have one of them help me. This enraged the snobby guy working the door and he raised his voice to me yammering on about my needing to set up an appointment for an hour and a half later and how silly I am because I could have set the appointment up from home duh. This caught one of the "sales" guy's' attention and I waved him over. He was very very nice and said he was not a tech guy but was definitely willing to look at the phone nonetheless. He suggested I set the appointment for the hour and a half later in the event that he couldn't fix it and so we did. Well he fixed it and I was very happy about that. Bad review because I basically had to cause a scene to get help! I'm fairly confident that a guy who works at the Apple Store (in any capacity) has some understanding of the phone beyond mine and can at least troubleshoot. Or how about this APPLE.. hire 3 or 4 less sales people and train 3 or 4 more tech people if your wait times are that long at 2:30 on a Monday. I thought the landscape was amusing seeing the abundance of sales guys standing around looking to sell you something but then there is no help once you buy the darn thing and come back in looking for some help. A wait time is a wait time, I get it. I live in a civilized society and I follow rules. But the guy's attitude is what really got me. Like he was delighted to tell me that there was an hour and a half wait like it made him feel so important and wielding. Bad attitude queen really needs a refresher in his customer service training. read more

Admittedly, the two stars are for the feeling that you get at this store: like cattle being herded. Is this what Steve Jobs intended to deliver? I'm an Apple gal, from iPhone to iPad to iMac - but the heavenly experience I remembered from a few years back is but a distant memory. A greeter directing you to the proper line to stand in to sitting on square stools/seats akin to a pre-school. Yeah. No. Not even a little. You know that feeling that you have about going to your cell phone providers' store? That feeling is creeping into the Apple Store experience. I couldn't be more sad. read more

Always great service with a lot of employees so I can come in and get my questions answered right away. Definitely worth the extra money, Save the stress and get a mac read more

As someone who loves Apple Products I love going into the store to check out the items they have on display. At first it seems slightly intimidating as you somewhat expect to get bombarded by staff, but they tend to leave you alone if you tell them your just browsing. The new iPhone XS MAX just came out and there was a line out the, door of people waiting to talk to someone , I told them I was just looking at cases and they let me right in. They did say if I wanted to buy one I would have to go back out to set up an associate to purchase. ( little more on that later) . My son and I walked in and even though they were busy it didn't seem overwhelming crowded and we were able to look at product without being pushed to the side. I had purchased the new phone online so went looking for a case. After finding one I wanted , instead of having to go back out looking to get help to buy it, I just purchased it through my Apple App. As soon as you open it, it knew my location was inside the store, I scanned the item and paid through the credit card on file, was very fast and easy, after paying on the App you just walk out the store with it, no questions asked. ( How they know your not stealing it,, I have no idea, but it always has worked. ) . My son loved looking at all the tablets and Beats, so we spent a lot of time in the store. One Thing that I think kind of sucks with Apple in general is with the supply and demand, when it the store a few weeks later to try to buy a new watch but they were sold out of almost every single one of the new ones. I don't tend to settle for one I don't truly want as Apple products are so expensive. This is not store related,, so it does not change how I feel about it. If I lived closer I probably would be in there all the time. read more

Great store with a very friendly staff. Good selection but would they get some iPhone 6 Plus swag in already? As with any Apple Store, there are plenty of display units to play with. Pro tip: if your phone is dead, you can charge up here. Just be a good citizen and plug the demo phone back in before you leave. read more

Came here to buy an iPad, knowing exactly which model I want. Was told it would be at least 45 minutes before anyone would be available to make a sale. I don't understand how you can turn away a customer with cash in hand when there's probably 40 employees standing around doing nothing. read more

I hate this place so much. I wish I could give 0 stars. So pretentious. Very confusing when you walk in, where do I check in? Do I just wave someone down, everyone is helping someone, no one looks happy, everyone is sad and confused and frustrated. Please just set up a check in counter with a sign saying check in here. Your geniuses can maybe tone down the smug a bit and we will all be happy. read more

This is solely regarding the ease to make an appointment at this particular Apple Store. One word: Impossible. Do they really expect us to make a 2 or 3 hour drive to Des Moines/Kansas City to get someone to take a look at our computer? We should be able to make appointments at least two weeks down the line. Instead they keep referring you to their online system which just keeps telling you to take your computer to another STATE. Why do I even bother to buy Apple Care which costs $349 for the full package (which I have) when I can't even take my computer in to have it looked at? I'm fed up and something needs to be done. read more

Please learn from my experience. Don't go here, they are just waiting for people to drop the soap... er... cash. The worst. I went to get a battery replaced on my phone as advertised and was told that it was unsafe for them to work on it because the battery had been replaced previously by someone that wasn't Apple . Incredible, but a great way keep your customers underneath a tight thumb . Loved the fake smiles and thin veneer placed over a hapless greed driven corporate mindset. "Oh my gosh, that would be so unsafe, but we can certainly sell you another phone." read more

Terrible concept of a store. The only appointment we could get into for the day was 7:45 PM. We had to wait a half an hour to talk to someone who told us we had to place the order ourselves because half of what we wanted wasn't in stock. The other half was in stock, but since the store was closing in a half an hour we would have to come back the next day to pick it up. We also would have to have the more expensive item shipped to our house and not to the store. Any of the questions we had, are easily found online. Felt rushed like we hadn't set up an appointment. The only benefit of the place was the nice guy checking people in for the appointments, who was more informative than anyone else we spoke with. Don't even waste your time setting an appointment - do your research and buy online or somewhere else that cares about your business. read more

I schedule an appointment today for 3 PM. I came in for a screen that was no longer working on my iPhone 5s. The staff told me that they would replace a screen for 130. The test and recalibration of the screen to be done at 4:20. I did not leave the store until 530. The staff were apologetic multiple times for the delay. And I left with a replacement phone so overall, I stayed later than I expected. I had good customer service and got a phone that works well. read more
