I've ordered a Xiaomi Mi Smart Network Speaker from this site and received it in 1,5 weeks from China (I'm living in Hungary). I opted the EU Express shipping method so I did not have to pay VAT and customs...:-) The product is original Xiaomi quality and very well packed.
I'm a gadget addict: formerly, I preferred other webshops untill I found GEARBEST. I've had 20+ orders from them but they have never left me alone but provide excellent services. The Customer Service responds in 24 hours at least, the tracking number can be tracked properly and do not forget GEARBEST's unbeatable prices. Order with confidence: highly recommended!

I would like to share my Gearbest shopping experience with everybody. I purchased a Chuwi vi10 tablet. Must say it was exactly as described@ Gearbest's site. All items are portrayed with a full description & specs including live video clips that show you the product and how it functions which makes your decision to purchase much easier I think.

They have the cheapest prices that I've seen anywhere online yet! They also package your order with the best packing materials and show you a picture prior to shipping. Tracking numbers are mostly free depending on purchase price & there is a variety of the way your item is shipped which you get to choose from.

Living in Greece I chose airmail via post NL. Had a tracking no and was able to see the shipping progress which took approx 12 days to arrive at my home. That's really fast I think! My purchase experience was great. Have already ordered some more stuff. Oh you also get points for shopping which = money so your next order can be even cheaper. Any glitches with your
Order are rectified asap! Had a small order one time that never arrived via surface mail. Well I was reimbursed not questions asked. Can't beat that!

I recommend Gearbest 100%. Keep up the good work guys!

Pros: Nice touch, good transparancy, no additional colors, great oleophobic coating.
Cons: A little smaller than the size of the screen. Makes it harder to install.

I've ordered few items so far from Gearbest. Xiaomi Hybrid Dual Driver (W**************) arrived home safe and sound while the other item is on the way! No problem at all with my order and perfect tracking system. The item purchased works perfectly and I'm really satisfied of it. The feedback on site is very useful and also I found very good their customer service post-sale. I can only write positive reviews about Gearbest. No item refunded/wrong, so it's good. Hope this review is helpful. When I'll get my Xiaomi mi Band 1S I'll update this review or write a new one in case. Thanks. - ITA - Soddisfatto di Gearbest sotto tutti i punti di vista.

Ordered a Kakashi Figure from Gearbest 18 days ago and still haven't gotten it, been seeing many bad reviews about the site today so now I'm not surprised, I'm giving it til the end of the week, also the forgot password just loops around and nothing helped me get my password back so I can't even track the damn thing which I paid an extra $3 to do, needless to say these bastards aren't getting my business again

The worst customer experience I have ever encountered.

Ordered phone on 25th April.

Product page says ships within 1-2 days.

I also paid for express shipping 6-8 days.

Contacted gearbest after 4 days as order still said processing.

Was told product was in stock and to be patient and wait for shipping information.

Told the same after 5 days.

Today I am told that the UK warehouse my product was to be shipped from is closed and relocating.

How can you sell products from a warehouse that doesn't exist?

How can you claim to have items in stock in this warehouse?

How can you charge customers for express shipping when you know you cant fulfill the order on time?

Every time I've asked when my phone will be shipped I've been given vague responses but no actual answer or date.

Every time I've asked when the warehouse relocation will be completed I've been ignored.

Customer service responses have been prompt until i mentioned I wanted a refund. Now they don't seem to want to respond.

Scammers, thieves and liars.

Impressed with the cheap prices
October 21, 2018

On 12 September, I came across one flashsale on gearbest from this xiaomi original smartband, mi band 2. It was extremely cheap, a little more than 16 euros only. Was a flashsale. These smartbands in my country, Portugal, go well over 30,35 euros!
It was my first purchase on this site and i was worried about several things, including custom taxes, guarantee that would be an original product...
The shipment was very fast. It landed in Portugal after 20 days of shipment. It remained with my Country mail service (named CTT) for around more 10 days until being delivered in hand to me. So, I waited roughly 30 days, and this with weekends and national holidays in the middle.
And better of all, the box was sealed, all contents intact, original product and no import taxes!
If you can wait around 20,30 days for your order to be delivered, do it. You'll end up saving a lot.
I'll recommend any buyer to use the faster shipment services for more expensive orders.
This shop after-sales service was also very good. Polite staff, and always keeping me updated.

Best prices for Yeelight!

Gearbest beat all others on Yeelight prices. So you get quality products almost for the same price as no-brands on other sites and I really like buying experience on Gerabest!

I ordered a 3d pen and some filament, and it did not ship for over 30 days. I was given no indication that anything was wrong, or an updated estimate for when my order would arrive.

After talking with customer support, they repeatedly asked whether I wanted my refund issued to my Gearbest Wallet, to which I clearly and consistently respondedn NO. PLEASE REFUND MY ORIGINAL PAYMENT METHOD.

I wish I had never used this site. They are willfully dishonest and apparently incapable of getting orders out.

Overview

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.
