Gearbest Reviews Summary

The company's reputation is significantly marred by widespread customer dissatisfaction, primarily stemming from persistent issues with order fulfillment, delays, and inadequate customer support. Many customers report difficulties in receiving refunds, with some waiting over a year without resolution. While a minority of reviews highlight positive experiences regarding product quality and timely delivery, these instances are overshadowed by the overwhelming negative feedback. Overall, the sentiment reflects a lack of reliability and transparency, leading to a recommendation for potential buyers to exercise caution when considering purchases from this company.

Ultimamente spedizioni pessime
December 14, 2017

Dopo diversi acquisti andati a buon fine ultimamente l'ingranaggio si è inceppato. Pacchi spediti con servizi diversi da quelli pagati e lunghissimi tempi di attesa, sperando che prima o poi arrivi qualcosa.

Site de confiança
December 15, 2017

Fiz minha primeira compra internacional pela gearbest, tive um pouco de receio pois eu não conhecia ainda o site, fui surpreendido pelo tratamento e pela facilidade de pagamento. Gostei tanto que agora comecei meu negocio pela gearbest e vou continuar comprando. Recomendo.

Nice store, great discounts on coupons!
December 15, 2017

This is one of my favorite stores where I often buy small electronics and gadgets. The store often makes discounts on coupons and just good sales. At the same time, the store has fast order processing. And only in this store you can find interesting lanterns of some companies and only in this store great prices for knives! I recommend to all lovers of gadgets and outdoor activities!

GearBest has very competitive pricing, even without all their promotions. When you add deals and coupons on top, their prices are practically unbeatable for anyone on a hunt for Chinese gadgets.

I especially found Xiaomi products to have the best prices out of all the websites I've shopped in. So if you are into smart home gadgets or their phones, look no further.

Overall shopping experience has been great. Mobile app is very simple yet robust, and I do all of my purchases through it. It has all the functionality of the desktop browser version.

There are numerous shipping options available, including EU warehouses (from which you can get even faster shipping and avoid additional VAT charges). Products are almost always shipped out within the first 48 hours.

I also love their award point system, through which you can get additional discounts on your purchases (each point transforms into cash discount). Each purchase awards those points, and you can get even more by reviewing products, uploading videos, etc.

All in all, smooth experience so far, and also a fun place to shop.

I discovered this site looking for Xiaomi original products. Since there is no official online xiaomi shop in Spain (only recemtly they have opened one with a really limited amount of products to buy), I think this is one of the best places to acquire their products. You can also find them in sites like Aliexpress, but the prices are usually higher there, and you risk buying not original products.

Since I started buying, I have purchased there more than 38 items, ranging from really cheap prices (like Xiaomi Mijia pen or
Xiaomi Portable USB LED Light) to expensive items, like the Xiaomi Mijia M365 electric scooter.

The pros: you can pay via paypal, choose among a lot of different shipping methods, original Xiaomi products, competitive prizes, good enough customer service, great offer of items, great prices, point system to get products cheaper, doscount codes and flash sales

The cons: delivery times when using free shipping takes a lot of time and maybe too much of an abuse because of the price range when using a discount code (you may buy something at a certain price, and just the day after is maybe 20% cheaper because of a discount code, and you just missed it...)

Overall, I recommed this site.

I really like the store, always have great prices with flash sales and coupons or you can use GearBest points to lower prices. They are offering free shipping methods, also without another fees to lots of countries.

Their customers service is also good and fast.

Since I like to spend money wisely, for me it is the best store because of the largest assortment and profitable discounts, but in addition to the discounts there is also a system of pleasant bonuses for each purchase, which makes me very happy.
I recommend!

Promo deals and Coupon codes to get discounts
Fast Shipping

Technical support is also good, you can ask some inquiry first before purchasing your desired product.

December 14, 2017

Recently purchased the Smooth Q gimbal, I was afraid It would get stuck in shipping because of my countries customs procedures, but they shipped it so well I did not have to pay any extra fees. Also It was fast and the product came without any problems. It works great and I would love to buy again from Gearbest.

Gearbest is my favourite shop where i have purchased all my Xiaomi products. They have the best compromise between price and delivery time. Flash sales are wonderful and you can also use some coupons time to time. For all of this i use to recomend Gearbest to all my friends here in Spain. I have purchased 98 products in last year and all arrived in time and good conditions. Moreover, they have one of the best customer services i have ever seen. They reply very fast to all your tickets solving the possible doubbts you could have.
One of my last orders (WB**************) was delivered on time as always (i ordered it 20/09/2017). Product arrived in good conditions and is was as described. I will continue purchasing in Gearbest for a long time!

My Experience
December 14, 2017

I decided to buy a flashlight a while ago. I was looking for it everywhere, I am from Poland and here we have limited access to many things, or price gives heart attack. I found flashlight on gearbest I wanted bad and thought "why not?". I do not regret this decision, flashlight is incredible, got little problems with tracking so i write a ticket to get details and answer came really fast. After a few days from my ticket i received my order. All the time i was in touch with support so I felt safe with everything. I recommend with no bad feelings about it.
