This shop is a saviour when it comes to iPhones. Thank goodness for them because here not only can…read moreyou buy screen protectors but they actually put them on for you! There's no more bubbles, fingerprints and dust on my phone screen because they're absolute pros at it. It's even cheaper than other places which I love. They also have a great range of electronic products. There's cameras, phones, tablets and whole lot more. And they're all at great prices. A lot of people buy their iPhones here as they're often a bit cheaper than other stores. You can't go on a plan though but if you're going to buy the phone outright this is the place to go. The cameras there are great too. Again the same product for a whole lot cheaper. The staff are super friendly which makes such a difference too.

I was traveling to Auckland on business from the US when my display failed. While other shops had…read moresubstantial waits even to discuss it, Ubertec was able to see me without an appointment, review my equipment quickly, and get an express part replacement -- honoring my US AppleCare warranty. They kept in constant contact with me throughout the process. They were even able to get my MacBook Pro back to me earlier than expected. Their staff was courteous and professional. I will absolutely return here on subsequent trips to Auckland if I need anything!

After a considerable drive to drop phone off was told sorry no batteries in stock for this model and then tried to blame it on shipping etc totally ignoring the fact that a staff member had supposedly put one aside. Ubertec Google reviews show a pattern of this occurring - not good Customer Service at all.

I first discovered JB Hi-Fi on a trip to Australia a few years ago now and since then they have…read moreexpanded to NZ. They have an extensive range of anything to do with music, gaming, computers, cameras (basically entertainment technology specialists). Whenever I'm in JB Hi-Fi they seem to have some really good specials. I purchased some Sennheiser headphones there which have served me well. They have all the headphones out on display so you can listen to music on them before you buy. I keep seeing a lovely pair in there, which are brown, gold and amazing, but my budget didn't quite stretch to them at the time (sadly). JB Hi-Fi Queen St also do meet and greats occasionally when artists are in town - see photo of Ellie Goulding (whose album Halcyon is worth a listen)!

They have a HUGE selection of gaming for Xbox one/360 & PlayStation which is fabulous! They encourage 'trade & save' or to buy pre-owned games: pure genius. I find the security guard highly entertaining & friendly, been here for years so a good go-to if you can't find a salesperson. The staff a bit nonchalant & disinterested (which is a shame), always been the case here. Great opening hours, you can sell your games, DVDs etc if you want some extra cash however (be warned) they pay peanuts. However, they do gift cards to any dollar value. Brill.

I dropped off my laptop at the Auckland CBD shop to be repaired and was assured, explicitly,…read moremultiple times, that since I bought the laptop at another shop in the chain, I wouldn't be charged for an assessment should I choose not to have any work done on it. I received a call later in the week telling me that the necessary repair was going to cost more than I originally paid for the laptop, and decided not to proceed. I was then informed of a $100 assessment fee. When I contested this the staff member said that he would check some things and get back to me. He never did. Today I went to pick up my non-functioning computer and to speak with a manager. During the course of our conversation he constantly interrupted me, talked down to me, and refused to answer when I asked why he thought this was acceptable customer service. He also came across very much as though he was trying to intimidate me. When I stood my ground he changed from telling me that I must have misunderstood/the staff member must have misspoken to telling me that she had never said anything that could be interpreted as me being able to expect not to be charged and that I was lying. Additionally, he told me that having to wait to speak with him was my own fault when I expressed dissatisfaction at how long it had taken. I'm very unimpressed with the lack of consistency and professionalism.

Some of the junior staff can be a bit more confident of their knowledge than deserved. However, the manager on my recent visit was extremely helpful and knew exactly what I needed to do to solve a wifi problem, didn't force me to buy anything and even gave me a bag for the part I had carried into the store. Great service, thanks. I'll be back!

Or you can even custom build your own computer by selecting the individual parts that you want in it, and seeing if they are compatible. If so, then the PB tech guys will probably put it together for you, for a fee of course. It certainly can be a lot cheaper to buy a new computer from these guys instead of some of the other electronic stores around. Not only that, but these guys will also repair or upgrade your computer if you bring it in to them. They are generally pretty friendly people who know what they are talking about; yep, they are serious computer nerds.

Delivered it back and they charged another 100.00 and I still had the same problem several weeks later. During the few months it took to repair, with several follow up calls I had been led to believe it could be repaired, only to have Kelly cover his tracks and not provided any service receipt/description on request. Each phone call he said it would be ready and would call back, only false promises who Kelly blamed on his serviceman for not turning up. Poor experience and very disappointing 250.00 down and not a thing to show for a deceased family possession I would have loved to hear again.

In this case I'm not sure if its a good thing that I've never experienced buyer's remorse after making a purchase here, as it explains why I keep coming back. There's something at JB Hi-Fi for everyone from games to computer programs to movies, and all at great retail prices too. Now and then they also have one-off sales where everything in-store is cost price + GST- so always good to keep your ears pinned for that one. It's not the biggest JB Hi-Fi branch but I know my way around. The staff here are quite reliable and the last time I went looking for an HDMI cable, the guy there told me about every single one they had, including the advantages and disadvantages. You don't get a lot of great service in retail these days so I take what I can get, and I was very impressed. Even the security at the store here always make a note to say hello and goodbye to all the customers- a little recognition goes a long way.

The thing I like most about this store is they have a really good second hand section with lots of refurbished camera's and accessories for around 1/3rd of their original cost. I bought my 5D body second hand from here and it has lasted me so well with no issues yet! But even if there was an issue I wouldn't be worried as the staff here have excellent contacts and ideas when it comes to fixing Canon products. The staff are so great, they really know what they are talking about, I could chat with them for ages about new products and old faithful ones and everything in-between. They stock the two main brands here, Canon and Nikon as well as an excellent range of after market accessories that are top quality and work well with both brands.

I was impressed with Duct Tape - I found the convenience and speed of the repair outweighed any potential savings from other outlets. I would revisit Duct Tape again, if the need arose. They also stocked a wide range of high quality iPad, and iPhone cases and accessories (eg Marc Jacobs, leather / felt cases from Sweden etc).
