The Good Stuff

An iPad with a minor issue was exchanged immediately, according to one used-electronics buyer.

Tips for a Better Visit
Check activation. Before leaving with an iPhone, check its activation status on Apple’s site; one buyer found both phones were already activated.
Inspect used phones. If buying used, test the phone carefully before paying; one customer reported three refurbished devices developing issues later.
Confirm pricing. Confirm the final price in store before travelling or paying, since one review reported a TikTok price changing from 50 AED to 200.
Clarify condition. Ask whether the device is new, used or refurbished and verify the exact model and activation status before completing the purchase.
Allow time. Build extra time into an iPhone purchase: one customer said the transaction took over three hours.

The Bottom Line
Awad Laptop UAE is a phone-focused shop in International City where customers buy new or used mobiles and tablets, arrange repairs, and sometimes pay through Tabby. The most frequently discussed purchase is the iPhone 17 Pro Max, including 256GB and 512GB versions; reviews also mention the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra, Meizu Note 21 and iPad. Pricing is the main attraction in the positive reviews.
Buyers repeatedly describe good prices, and several say their phones came with gifts or accessories. One iPhone repair customer reported receiving an original LCD, while an iPad buyer said a device with a minor issue was exchanged immediately. Those examples suggest there can be useful after-sales help, but they are individual experiences rather than a guarantee.
The cautionary reviews are important, especially for used devices and expensive iPhones. One customer said three refurbished phones later developed problems, and another said two phones sold as non-activated had already been activated on Apple’s site. A separate review alleged that a TikTok price changed from 50 AED to 200 AED in store.
Check the device condition, activation status and final price before paying, and allow extra time for the transaction.
