If you are a Portuguese speaker (or English), talk to Vera and Claudio, they're very nice and helpful Brazilian staff . Luckly, I didn't have an awful experience as the other people who left a tip here

surprise markdowns at the cashier but bear with the staff theyre not trained to be nice you gotta know what you want and tell them to get it for you

Douglas Souza

At 5th Ave. Just a few steps from your hotel it has lots of electronics and gadgets with a nice price. Just launched devices may not be available for pickup ...

Anna H

You need to schedule an appointment on online first or the wait time is 40 mins and plus!

Fernando Rodriguez

Great service from a Dominican girl! Yanilda took Me to the product I was looking for right away!

Mary Elise Chavez

Their floor staff is equivalent to zoo animals released from a cage who just discovered a remote control for the first time. Clueless and overselling. If you can, get your products at Apple.

S A

Only one person working the return line . All others are at the registers. Clearly making sales is more important you them and you just have to wait if you change your mind about a product.

Sophia Williams

The sales guy Julio was really nice and my friend and I ended up buying a headset and speaker.

G Style Magazine

This is a Flag ship Best Buy, say hi to the Publisher of G Style Magazine if you see him roaming around. Also whenever new artists release albums, many times it will happen at this location.

Jose Nanin

Order your item ahead and pick it up in a locker using a code they send you ????

Get some gift ideas for the tech lover at the Wired Store in Times Square, happening 11/18 to 12/24 daily from 12-7 p.m. (Closed Mondays and Tuesdays).

Devonta

Don is the man! Great manager. Clean store .

Haya Al Dossary

The guys are pretty useless when you ask specific questions, whether it's CDs or a laptop case, plenty of choices though

Josua Mudreilagi

Check downstairs for Microsoft products. Also SD storage cards were cheaper when I was there.

TOM TOM GPS HAS MEXICO MAPS INCLUDED , the employees never could tell me what GPS include Mexico maps, they always has a ugly face to costumers

The iPad 3 is coming out by Friday -- so the iPad 2 will be Chaeaper! Go for the wifi only model -- cheapest

Crazycol

Love this store really helpful team and great demos.

Cesar L.

Is not easy to ask a question to someone in the store , imagine how difficult is to get a answer !

Carlos Perea

Michael and Imran were extremely helpful. They were able to answer every question my mom had regarding her first iPhone.

Daron Yondem

Don't like the fact the store gets very crowded by tourists and usually you can't find he top of the line products. They always go out of stock :(

Grace Molina

I feel that ppl that have time to write a page about a store doesn't have a life. Get one, it NYC what do you expect about the overcrowding it the city .

Jamil Smith

Look for Troy in the MP3 department. Incredibly helpful and professional.

Karen

When picking up, the employees working the line are quite impatient.

Giselle Coura

Brazilian employee to help with the shopping. Good prices!

Michael Moskowitz

Friendly staff , short lines and no hassle returns.

Gabriel Marchezini

I come here to see what I want, then I buy it on Amazon.

Leo C

picked up and online order. service was quick and efficient.

Flynn Jones

If there's free WiFi here, how come neither of the display consoles NOR MY IPHONE can access it? I guess that's why it's free...

Tamara D

Great place when you need something quick for a meeting

Jonathan Rogers

Agreed w/ Anna T. The ones on 23rd & 6th or 72nd & B'Way seem more helpful and less crowded ...less tourists at the aformentioned locations.

Nick Johnson

A good place to buy electronics if you have no soul.

Ray Fowler

Yeah get colleagues to listen to customers and then they may close the sale with a bigger value

Jenny Lew

Save $100 off any Tablet, Laptop, or select Gaming Console with purchase of a Mobile Hotspot... Wowwwwwww!!!!!!!!

???? Uzay Yıldırım ????

Only the new smartphones have a working model. All others are just to show-off and fake.

mikeyboxx

What happened to all the CD and Blu Rays? WACK!! I hate this store. Go to Barnes and Nobel close by on 5th Ave. for music and movies .

Rebecca Plaine

Steer around the tourists and it's a quick check out

Mariano Ezequiel Noreña

All you need in one place !

Lorence R

If you love ghetto, neck rolling, eye rolling "customer service" employees/reps, then this is the place for you.

Ricardo Luciano

Nice BB! They had the UE!

Nuri Jeon

They have a toilet downstairs.

Anna Finlay

Not the best customer service. When we were on line a girl asked if we were using a card to pay. We explained we were using a gift card. She seemed very confused and used her hand to dismiss us...

Nadia IssaBella

It'll be better once it's renovated. Odd layout right now.

Clara Bayarri

Great electronics

Horace aka Tha Bo$s

Google their newest Price Match Policy ... Hint: Amazon
