Realice la compra de un redmi 4a el pasado 24 de Julio de 2017 en Gearbest y la experiencia ha sido muy buena. Envío de la orden WP************** super rápido y producto funcionando perfecto
Order on GB for the first time and was surprised by their package and shipping time. Also when i found issue with one product their tema was extremaly polite and send me another piece in a matter of days.
Very well packaging also.
Ottima assistenza e supporto!
Articoli a prezzi decisamente convenienti e spedizione rapida.
Decisamente consigliato!
Have been a fan on there store for a wilde, never had a problem with any purchase. Has plenty to choose from with great prices and even better shipping methods.
The products are very good, the shipping is fast and not expensive. They are very helpfull. I recommend this seller.
This is my first Gearbest's experience, and it is a success!
On my order number WP************** (as Flashy Flash - Jun 30,2017 02:54:52 AM), it was a Xiaomi Air purifier 2, the last from Xiaomi Purifier.
I received it Jul 17,2017 08:29:00 AM), so 17 days!
Gearbest's prices are very good too, was 22 dollars less than another chineese's site for this air purifier.
Can be long, but for free shipping, it's awesomely quick!
The Xiaomi purifier was in it original box and in another box, and arrived in excellent condition! (i paid for EU Express shipping for "almost" free)
Gearbest's support is very good. If you have any questions, just ask them and they will answer under 24h most of the time! (sometimes few hours after your request :))
To conclude, was my first gearbest's order, and not the last!
I am writing this review based on multiple orders I have purchased from GearBest. I came across this site on word of mouth of a friend of mine and it indeed lived up to my expectations.
GearBest has a huge selection of product which you can literally browse all day long. I am a Geek and was happy to see that they even have a category after that (yay!). The prices are competitive and shipping is worldwide. You can pay using PayPal so there is your peace of mind also. Being from India, I was worried about the shipping charges and time. But to my relief they have tie up with a local logistics (GATI) and I was able to track my order from HongKong to Mumbai without any issues. The shipping cost is almost negligible and the packaging was adequate.
Overall I am a happy returning GearBest customer and would recommend it highly to my fellow geeks!
Cheers!
They advertised product and after payment only will let you know that have to wait for an indefinite time for them to restock. And once you filed a complaint through paypal, they will make your next purchase harder.
Been buying from gearbest for years and never had huge problems with them. All the minor issues got resolved quickly and amicably in my favor. It is the #1 store for chinese products for me and I always check Gearbest first.
Gearbest is the best shop in the world! This store is the best support will always answer any question! Orders are delivered very quickly! Very low prices! Didn't see a single store where prices are lower than on Gearbest! I am very happy with this store, he's never let me down!
My review of Gearbest is very positive, the site is very intuitive and easy to consult, the products and the assistance have always been impeccable, the answer to my questions and doubts has always been given in the best way by the support, Some bonuses that are very nice.
In a General way Gearbest has become my point of reference in online shopping, conveys a lot of security and guarantee.
Edit
One of the best if not the best selling websites there is in the internet. Great technical support, fast responses, fast shipping, very good quality for low prices.
I'm still waiting for my package after 4 weeks and the tracking details they provided do not work. They do not help at all when asking them, they keep giving me those incorrect tracking details. I'm disgusted by this.

I would like to share my shopping experience with Gearbest, the smartphone arrived in 14 calendar days, it came with no apparent problem. Everything working fine so far, including the fingerprint reader that many complain about malfunctioning. The only thing though was that I did not think the product was well packed, luckily the carton was not kneaded and the unit could have suffered some damage. I already have 4 months of use of the product and everything is perfect, my first experience in Gearbest was great.
Great experience, fast shipping, very good and competitive prices, very good quality of the products, great support, safe payments. My first experience was excellent and I recommend Gearbest to all my friends.
Excellent online sales site. The articles are always of excellent quality. All orders arrive correctly without defects. If something goes wrong, customer support is fantastic and very fast.
A website with a great interface and easy to find what you want, a wide variety of products for a very affordable and attractive price, fast delivery and quality products. I only had surprises with Geabest and good surprises, if you are in doubt to buy, do not have it, it is a company committed to the customer, I am very satisfied with the purchase of my mechanical keyboard CK 104 and I just have to thank and congratulate the geabest For great service!
Answer: Some people will get their products, some will not. Some will get what they expected and some will not. I got my products but one was not what they promised and one broke after a few seconds of use. They still continue to use wrong information on their website even though they admitted to me that it is not correct. I wrote a review on their web site about the product that broke after a few seconds of use and they blocked it so it still looks like the product only has positive reviews. You can see pictures and read more on my own web site that I created for telling my experience about GearBest: http://GearBestreview.azurewebsites.net
Answer: Dont really matter mate, regardless, what they do if does not arrive, they will not refund, they offer to resend at your cost. Then you do Paypal dispute, they refuse to refund unless you close the case, if you close the case, Paypal will not help. In my circumstances Paypal decided in my favour and refunded, but dragged on, avoid this company in future, Bangood better
Answer: Dear Iain, you can submit a ticket here: http://support.gearbest.com/ Our colleague will reply you in 24 hours! We are sorry that the live chart is some buzy, as many people contact over the world. So that may need customers to wait a little linger for their turn. Gearbest.com
Answer: Yes Adam, did you pay with PayPal? If Then contact PayPal and claim your money back and stat away from gearbest, they lied to me and now i an trying to get my 100 dollars back. There is a reason that they are NOT on eBay... So my advice to everyone is to stay far away from this socalled Company... No mail, no adress, no phone?
Answer: They are legit, just ridiculously slow in shipping. I waited 1.5 months for my "rush" order. It was shipped out in multiple pacakges and arrived at different times.
Answer: Same here, after 3months of waiting for my order and many conversations in an email ticket which went on for 1month they promised me to refund me via paypal. No refund and nothing heard from them since almost 2weeks. Keep writing here people, I hope lotz of people read it and gearbest goes bankrupt very soon
Answer: You can try the Better Business Bureau like I did however they never responded to them either, they did respond to the tickets I opened up on their site but the replies weren't of much use and not very helpful.
Answer: I wouldn't. It's been three months and I still don't have my order and their customer service is terrible. They just keep telling tryouts to wait longer.
Answer: I would advise you to stear clear. If the site does not let you order with free shipping then you have dodged a bullet. I got free shipping but the product was damaged an only fit for resting your cup on they offered a refund less the first shipping that was ment to be free or a replacement. As it cost 25 pounds to send back to resolve the matter I chose to except the replacement it came and was just as bad a tablet as the first. Take my advice and run a mile. Hope this gives you an idea what the company is like. Run run run a mile mate.
