Bad service, no one asked us if we need help when we get inside,
I saw a lady that came after us and a agent run to ask if she need help and we still waiting for someone to help us. Bad bad service

Horrivel 2 horas de espera para ser atendido para trocar uma simples tela, em duas horas fiz tres contatos com um rapaz e ele sempre me pedia mais 2 minutos de espera

My grandfather was helped by someone named Santiago and the whole he had this attitude of not wanting to be there and not wanting to help. We were nice to him the whole time and being very understanding but his face and body language said other wise let’s just say we are not coming back.

I received excellent service at this Apple store. I was greeted immediately upon arrival, and was only in store for a screen detector replacement. The team member promptly assisted me herself, and I was done within 5 minutes. Parking on site was easy, and the newer store on the forefront of Waterside Shops was much easier to navigate.

I walked into the Apple Store today and was greeted right away, which was promising — but that’s where the service ended. I asked about the new iPads and mentioned I brought my 2TB iPad Pro M2 for trade-in. I was told a sales associate would help me shortly. Fifteen minutes later, no one ever came.
Meanwhile, multiple employees were wandering around aimlessly with nothing to do. I also wanted to check out a Mac Studio and demo the new M5 Vision Pro to decide if an upgrade made sense. Instead, I was told to wait until 6:30 — despite the demo area being empty and the store having more staff than customers.
In the end, I walked out without purchasing anything — even though I came ready to buy a new iPad Pro, a Mac Studio, and possibly a Vision Pro upgrade. That’s a serious missed opportunity on Apple’s part. I guess it doesn’t matter when the paycheck comes either way, but it’s frustrating as a loyal customer to be ignored when ready to spend thousands.
