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.

I have bought some rc hobby parts from gearbest and they have been as described. Shipping is reasonable fast to Finland and packaging has been sufficiently well done.
Overall I've been very happy with purchases.

Excellent shop online
December 10, 2017

Excellent site of electronic products with very affordable offers. Shipments always accurate and at the top. I am a fan of Xiaomi and on November 7,2017 I bought the Xiaomi mijia Car DVR Camera. Great product even if unfortunately it remains with the Chinese language in the settings menu. In short... highly recommended site

Bad store!
December 9, 2017

I already make more than 80 orders in the store, I consider a good customer but a store not with the good customers. When it is to buy, a store is very helpful and solve everything quickly, when the product presents some problem to a store everything to hide and harm the customer. I bought a smart watch and presented problems as soon as I took it out of the box, I already sent messages to a store they just ignore me, they never solve the problem and give me back my money. The store has lousy customer service, be careful.

I bought my MI a1 right at the launch day from gearbest, it took one month to be shipped (which is understandable since it was pre sale), and the phone arrived on Brazil really fast, well packed and the phone is amazing and the price was sooo nice. The support from gearbest is always fast and clarifying, always ready to solve my problems. Definitely will be buying again and commendating to friends and family.
10/10 gearbest.

A Gearbest, tem um processo de despacho de produtos excelente, o que acontece é falha por parte dos transportadores, e principalmente aqui no Brasil, com essa greve de Fiscais de Receita e dos correios que atrasou tudo!
Mais de todas as vezes que comprei na Gearbest fui bem atendido

Love the speed
December 10, 2017

I already made many orders on Gearbest with 0% of failure. The best is the recently order a Lipo charger which was out of stock. They replace the order with a better charger with no any extra cost. Maybe the live chat system having some bug but you can use the ticket to contact them or even Messenger. About product quality so far i never had any broken/damaged item. All works great on arrival. To get best deal wait for the flash sale its totally insane price.
Really recommended.

Soy de México y he realizado más de 10 pedidos en la pagina online GearBest, he tenia una muy buena experiencia con ellos. La velocidad de envío es muy rápida incluso ahora que es la temporada fuerte de envíos, todos los productos se han empaquetado muy bien, por lo que no hay ninguno que haya venido roto. Su centro de atención está en un excelente nivel y responden lo más rápido posible. Cuando ocurre un problema de envío GearBest, te brinda una muy buena atención. La razón por la que he comprado en GearBest fue por recomendación en redes sociales.

Compré un smarthphone de la marca Xiaomi (celulares dificiles de conseguir en mi país), además de una funda y micas protectoras, todo eso a un precio mucho más bajo que el que podría obtener en mi país.
El servicio fue muy rápido, obtuve los artículos en el tiempo estimado y llegaron sin daños a mi casa.

Best Prices
December 10, 2017

Hi sitejabber's users, I'm Tarık and I'm a student from Turkey. I like online shopping to much so let me say a few things about Gearbest. With coupons and points, products can be bought very cheap. I recommend the GearBest all to everyone. Delivery of all my products is fast and workable, although packaging is bad.

Do not forget to look at coupons from the internet for special prices. If you want you can choose paypal for payment method.

But sometimes they say that they have not stock to you when they send the product of your friend who bought the same product after you

I liked:
Very good price.
You can earn points than you can use for discount

I didn't like:
Tracking information is not good on GearBest
GearBests Web design

Compra inteligente
December 10, 2017

Uno de los mejores sitios online internacionales para hacer compras de pequeños utensilios, electrónica y gadgets, y un sin fin de artículos disponibles.

Mi experiencia con este sitio es excelente, el servicio al cliente es uno de los mejores que hay en comparación con otras tiendas internacionales online, cualquier problema lo resuelven de una manera rápida y satisfactoria para el cliente ( cosa que valoro mucho cuando voy a comprar algo por internet).

Tiene un sistema de reviews que te ayuda a conocer mejor el producto que estas buscando y ademas te da la oportunidad de compartir con la comunidad tus impresiones sobre el producto, obteniendo a cambio puntos canjeables en tus compras.

Ofrece la posibilidad de pagar mediante paypal, la forma de pago mas cómoda online.

Como punto negativo, el tiempo que tardan los envíos. Sin embargo en casi todos los productos tienes la posibilidad de elegir envió gratis, lo cual es muy bueno.

En conclusión, una gran tienda llena de comodidades para el consumidor. Muy recomendada.
