    Apple watch pairs very easily to the iPhone. Most of the setup needs to be done by the user which means that most people will not get a lot out of having help during the setup process.

    I have never used Geek Squad Protection, but I know the first time I don't purchase it, something will go wrong! Glad to have the assurance that someone competent is available should things go wrong.

    I recently had to return a covered tablet, and because Best Buy no longer carried that tablet, I was immediately given a store credit for the amount to spend on whatever I wanted, which was awesome!

    I have only used the service one time but was directed elsewhere to another department. Not too much to say other than friendly faces?

    This was NOT a pleasant experience. I had to go to Best Buy 4 times in order to get everything set up. There was only ONE Geek Squad member working. I was second in line and had to wait for 40 minutes just to be told I would have to leave my computer to get it set up. I could pick it back up in a couple of days. This was the North Little Rock, AR store. I will never purchase anything from that location again.

    I got this as a bundle with a recent DSLR purchase and had I needed it i assume it would have been a great service so far Best Buy has not let me down with any other Geek Squad services.

    I was super confused by the Apple Watch set up and found the Heek Squad support totally useful! I was ready to return my watch and the staff member taught me how to use it, successfully.

    Geek Squad support guy try to help me to setup my QC-35. Looks like he never had any previous experience to do that and struggled enough to find out a simple step.

    Often, I can figure out how to use the products I buy but sometimes, it’s just nice to have that backup, in case I don’t have time to “figure out” all the extra little features.

    I love the service and they didn't ask too much questions about the damage product , they just gave a brand new replacement and took the old one and then you're out the door! :)

    Kind, honest people helped me. They pointed out the return window, encouraged me to try my purchase, and let me know if I had <any> issues to bring it back for a full refund.
