Customer service is unprofessional. Contacts being eliminated from the Icloud is one thing, but not being able to resolve this issue is within 49 hours, and counting is unprofessional. I'm embarrassed to be an Apple Customer.

Bought an iphone 7 and in the first two hours it broke. The pixels on the screen were flashing green and then it shut off forever. Not having a phone for a day while I get another one was not the biggest problem though. The big problem was that my icloud got corrupted and I lost half of my pictures and videos. The team at this office spent hours on the line with me and then suspended my icloud for a week to look into the problem and try to "restructure" the data. All they managed to do after the week was bring back four crappy photos I deleted. I lost most of my videos from my semester study abroad trip I just got back from, so that sucks. I really hope this doesn't happen to anyone else. I used to think Apple was the high quality phone provider, but my mind is changing. The apple store I bought the phone from said this was not the first case this happened to someone. In the end I did not get an apology and I asked the manager of that apple store if she could give me a discount for this super crappy product that erased part of my icloud, but I never got anything so I still paid the full $800. They even messed up the exchanging of my phone after it went defective because I recycled my old phone 5s. The extra taxes that were originally deducted from my recycled phone being considered a "coupon" value towards my purchase but it could only be considered a "gift card" when they swapped out my defective phone, thus more money to pay when Apple messes up.

I will say the people I talked to on the phone here all seemed nice.

Probably I'm the biggest fan of Apple products but I can't afford any of the products, but I still love it from the bottom of my heart. Apple the best in the world.

Apple was founded by Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak, and Ronald Wayne in April 1976 to develop and sell Wozniak's Apple I personal computer. It was incorporated as Apple Computer, Inc. in January 1977, and sales of its computers, including the Apple II, saw significant momentum and revenue growth for the company. Within a few years, Jobs and Wozniak had hired a staff of computer designers and had a production line. Apple went public in 1980 to instant financial success. Over the next few years, Apple shipped new computers featuring innovative graphical user interfaces, and Apple's marketing commercials for its products received widespread critical acclaim. However, the high price tag of its products and limited software titles caused problems, as did power struggles between executives at the company. Jobs resigned from Apple and created his own company. As the market for personal computers increased, Apple's computers saw diminishing sales due to lower-priced products from competitors, in particular those offered with the Microsoft Windows operating system. More executive job shuffles happened at Apple until then-CEO Gil Amelio in 1997 decided to buy Jobs' company to bring him back. Jobs regained position as CEO, and began a process to rebuild Apple's status, which included opening Apple's own retail stores in 2001, making numerous acquisitions of software companies to create a portfolio of software titles, and changed some of the hardware technology used in its computers. It again saw success and returned to profitability. In January 2007, Jobs announced that Apple Computer, Inc. would be renamed Apple Inc. to reflect its shifted focus toward consumer electronics and announced the iPhone, which saw critical acclaim and significant financial success. In August 2011, Jobs resigned as CEO due to health complications, and Tim Cook became the new CEO. Two months later, Jobs died, marking the end of an era for the company.

Apple is the world's largest information technology company by revenue and the world's second-largest mobile phone manufacturer after Samsung. In February 2015, Apple became the first U.S. company to be valued at over US$700 billion. The company employs 123,000 full-time employees as of September 2017 and maintains 498 retail stores in 22 countries as of July 2017. It operates the iTunes Store, which is the world's largest music retailer. As of January 2016, more than one billion Apple products are actively in use worldwide.

Apple's worldwide annual revenue totaled $229 billion for the 2017 fiscal year. The company enjoys a high level of brand loyalty and has been repeatedly ranked as the world's most valuable brand. However, it receives significant criticism regarding the labor practices of its contractors and its environmental and business practices, including the origins of source materials.

A very small, but quaint Apple Store near the entrance of their 1st office building of Apple HQ. Here, you can buy everything you could normally at an Apple Store, but also merchandise and apparel that can't be bought anywhere else, including t-shirts and cups. Be aware: these are also very expensive, like $30+.

Dear fanboys, please do care before buy any products from Cupertino Apple store because you will suffer a lot if you are not a US resident.

Former Apple Headquarters.

Former Apple Headquarters.

If you don't have hosting, there's nothing to see.

Just the symbolism of Apple and the Apple Store.

I recommend apple park rather than here.

Congrats on having a piece of equipment that saved someone's life. The Apple watch was a great tool that was NOT sold by doctors and it helped someone out. As long as you tone down the "nosey-ness" of your products and protect consumer privacy more, you will go far.

Less of a big deal than Apple Park. Still worth visiting for the different merchandise, but it s actually a pretty small store. If you re in Cupertino already and you want to see two Apple locations, definitely stop in and look around.

I really can t underestimate how small this place is though. Most Apple retail locations are huge compared to 1IL. Be prepared for it to be crowded. You might want to try coming at a less busy time if it s too bad.

It is a nice and freeky place to visit if you like technology. They sell t-shirts, pens, and all Apple equipment. Its offices are very colorful but you can only enter if you know someone inside and invite you. In the parking lot there are several stations for charging electric cars.

On 8/10/2015 spoke with an Apple Tech at the 800 number. He was courteous, and very knowledgeable. He set up an appointment for us at the Apple Store in Roseville, (apx. a hour away), for that evening. Unfortunately we arrived apx. 20 minutes late. The store was PACKED! However, the staff treated us extremely well! We were seated at the Genius Table. Within 7 minutes, Patrick came over and introduced himself. He was definitely a Genius when it came to my IPhone 6 and the blue death screen. Within a very short time we were on our way out of the store with a new phone and smiles on our faces!
Thank you Patrick,
Star

Well, just to take a photo in front of the new headquarters, well, it's just a business, there is really a missing area in the loop for access to visitors. He could develop a "museum" area with the history of this emblematic brand.

When I visited three years ago it was unique. They mainly sold gadgets (t-shirts, sweatshirts, caps, pens, etc.).
I visited it at the beginning of September and it was a unique disappointment. Similar to all the other apple stores in the world, they sell four shirts and two pens. A pain !!!!! Bring it back as before which was better

I will be writing a hard copy to apple about imovie but I need to say this is beyond ridiculous! imovie keeps freezing up on a project that I have to get done. Not only is it pushing all my other work back having to redo this project but it is far beyond frustrating!! The project I am working on is ONLY 7 minutes! I talked to apple care for about an hour and they eventually told me I had to do the project over. I took that one on the chin and said to myself fine! I did this whole entire project over and 4 seconds into finishing this project, it freezes!!!! So i decided to go to an apple store in cherry hill nj. The guy tells me its my camera. I said how is it possible that it is my camera when I had this same problem on my mac book with a totally different camera. He seemed completely clueless leaving me with no good answer to why this is happening. All he said was that this happens a lot. Well hello!!! Apple fix the problem then!!!

So today I looked on some blogs to see if anyone else had this same problem and there it is about 100 different people are having this same EXACT problem.

This is very embarrassing. I truly love working with mac and saved every penny to funny get one and this is my result, a clueless apple employee standing in front of me without a single solution.

I need this to work and never give me a problem again!!

The place that started it all- well till the Spaceship is built. Has a company store that is only open 9-5 M-F. This store is the only place in the world that sells Apple apparel (including online). HIGHLY worth a visit. Great place to run by (but not on the campus, they get touchy about that).

Located right off of 280- if you get confused look at the Apple Maps icon (iOS 6 and lower).

apple infinite loop. Apple's head office moved to Apple Park in 2019, but the original head office is here.
I went in as a visitor.
I had a picture of Steve Jobs and I was able to take a picture.
I also had a meal inside.

Bought a pair of Air Pods on the premise that if they were lost or stolen I could track them down. They get stolen and Apple refuses to do anything even though they can see that the serial number that belongs to me is tied to someone else's phone and now I cannot track them.. excellent customer service. I've spent tens of thousands of dollars here and will never buy Apple again.

iPhone 6/6S/7 = same dang thing

iPhone 6/6S/7 = same dang thing

I feel no difference you're just making improvements to iPhone 6 that's what it feels like.

Day 2 iPhone 7 in my hands I feel no difference for real...I feel my old iPhone 6Plus does same thing pretty much.

Customers that already have iPhone 6 shouldn't buy 6S or 7.

It's same damn thing.
No big improvements.

I have owned Apple products for almost 10 Years now, and I have noticed a steady decline in customer care.

My Macbook Pro(2014 Model) that at the time was $3000+ and with Apple Care, recently the battery started to bulge. My apple care expired this Year, and I never used it. The issue is, I reached out to Apple Support regarding this issue, and they stated to go to a local apple store to diagnose. I did, and even after informing them of the expired Apple Care, they are still charging me $300 to replace a defective battery that will damage my $3000 macbook pro if not repaired.

This company makes billions in profits, and cannot part with a few hundred dollars to appease the dedicated customers of their products! I feel they care more about their share holders, and pocket books, rather than the customers that buy their products and create their profits!

I can see a shift in the market, where consumers will move away from arrogant companies, that think they are immune to competition based on a loyal fan base!

I absolutely love my apple devices, and very excited to get the new iPhone X, was really cool being able to go see where Steve jobs started out of a garage and just a few minutes away is the whole apple infinity facility. The reason for the 4 stars is there is no place for visitors and guests to tour around :/

Horrible prices, products not worth it. Parking lot extremely dangerous with employees racing at highway speed through crosswalks. The $100 charger from them completely fell apart in a year and 5 weeks exactly. Very poor craftsmanship.

Nothing to see here. The outside of the offices could be that of any office in the world. There is also an Apple Store, which you can also find elsewhere, except that they sell Apple branded goodies. Good if you want to be a walking ad.
