I attended GR Phones Campbelltown on 29 December 2025 to repair a persistent reception issue with my Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra. I was advised that the issue was repairable and covered by a 90-day warranty. However, after multiple repair attempts,… Read more

the issue was not resolved. I returned again within the warranty period and explained that the problem mainly occurs at night, which cannot be properly tested during store hours. Despite this, the store relied on limited in-store testing and concluded that the phone was working, without addressing the specific conditions under which the issue arises.

On 14 February 2026, I was offered a partial refund with removal of parts and no warranty, subject to a 7-day deadline. Consumer and Business Services (CBS) later confirmed that this deadline is not part of the store’s published terms and conditions (https://www.grphones.com.au/terms-and-conditions-2/)

I sent two follow-up emails but did not receive any substantive response until now.

My concern is not only that the issue remains unresolved, but also the reliance on limited testing, the inconsistency between the stated position and the proposed refund, and the lack of engagement after the matter was formally raised.

 Follow-up  · The repair cost was $150. The original diagnosis provided by the store was that the reception issue was a known and repairable issue with the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra, and I was advised that it could be fixed and covered by a 90-day warranty if further issues arose. Unfortunately, after multiple repair attempts, I continued to experience the same… Read more

I checked your online portal for a trade-in and was offered $730 for my phone in zero scratch / immaculate condition. Based on this, I went to your Campbelltown office, which is about 40 minutes from my home. At Campbelltown, I was told the technician sits at Allenby Gardens and I was asked to go there instead. I requested that staff call the… Read more

technician first to confirm availability and pricing. When they did, the technician advised that I would only receive $350, even if the phone is in immaculate condition, as they already have 6–7 phones of the same brand. If this is the case, your website pricing should be updated to reflect the actual amount being offered. Advertising a significantly higher trade-in value and then offering less than half in person is misleading and wastes customers’ time. Also, saying that I was “saved a trip” to Allenby Gardens is not accurate — I had already made a 40-minute trip to Campbelltown based on the information provided on your website. Please ensure online trade-in values match in-store offers to avoid confusion and inconvenience for customers.

I took my iPhone 14 Pro into the CBD store to get a new screen as i (and many other reviewers) saw they advertise genuine parts. I paid $330 for the premium screen assuming that I would get a genuine Apple replacement. Oh was I wrong. I noticed a green hue and grainy texture on the screen and on checking settings - I was sold a USED screen that is… Read more

in poor condition

Stay WELL AWAY from GR phones.

UPDATE 3/12/25: I was contacted by the owner who advised that you have to specicially request for apple genuine used parts to be used (same price as going to apple) but that they would put my old screen back on and refund the repair cost. Today I got that done however as I was leaving the Anzac Highway store - the person at the front desk told me to remove these reviews or they would call me to remind me to do so. One star added for the solution however the original reviews stand as to the quality of their products and the comment regarding removal of review.

Fantastic Experience at GR Phone Allenby Garden Head Office – Excellent Customer Service and great repairs on my iPhone 14 pro max back glass replacement.

looks great again. The customer service was outstanding-Raj was especially helpful and made the whole process smooth and easy. They got 6 stores in Adelaide which was quite convenient and accessible for me to drop in as it was just 10-15 mins walk from my house. Highly recommend GR Phone for both the product and the friendly, professional repair service!

I got screen replacement on my newest 17 pro max. They are honest about what parts they use as they gave me two screen options- aftermarket and genuine Apple screen before the repair which developed my trust on them. I opted for the genuine screen and got it done in just two hours. Saved me from buying a new phone. Will definitely go back.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Bought a refurbished phone from GR Phones Adelaide and I’m very satisfied with the purchase. The phone was in excellent condition, clean, well packed, and works perfectly with no issues. Performance is smooth, battery health is good, and it looks almost like new. Great value for money and a trustworthy place to buy refurbished phones.

GR Phones Sefton Park lies lies lies money grabbing scum. Sold me a iPhone with faulty volume and a non genuine battery and charged $488 found out later that Amazon and eBay sell that same model for less than $200 with genuine apple parts took it back for refund boss told me to fuck off. Also do their own reviews to make them look good. Beware they are real [Content Removed]. Should be shut down.

Steer Clear – I read most of the reviews for the Allenby Gardens store before deciding to take my iPhone in to be investigated for repair. I’m not sure of the validity of some of the reviews on here, but here is a real one. I was told up front that there would be a non-refundable ‘deposit’ of $50 for them to look at the phone. No worries, I understood and paid… Read more

the ‘deposit’. I was told I should get the phone back that day or at the latest the following day. Again no worries and understood.

I didn’t hear anything from them the day I took it in, but received a call mid-morning the next day saying they had identified the phone needed a new screen and charging port. I asked what the price would be and was quoted $195 for the better screen and $149 for the charging port, so $344 in total. I agreed to have it repaired believing that I had already paid a ‘deposit’ of $50, so I would have a further $294 to pay once complete. Again I was told it should be ready later that day. It wasn’t.

I called the store the following day at lunch time to ask if the phone had been repaired and it apparently had. They hadn’t bothered to let me know, but fine.

I went in to collect the phone and was told I owed $344. I questioned the amount and was told the $50 had already been taken into account. I reluctantly paid the amount as I wanted my phone back and was told they would email me an invoice.

I waited an hour after receiving my phone to see if they sent me an invoice. Nothing. I emailed them to ask for one and was sent a general invoice with no breakdown of the costs, just a total amount. I asked for them to send me an itemised one, which they sent shortly after. I questioned again where the ‘deposit’ was and they replied ‘please see attached invoice for your records. $50 which was paid is not included in parts replacement price. That $50 was allocated towards to water damaged cleanup. So price what we quoted after assessment that was additional price on top of $50. Hope that has cleared your understanding.’

Well obviously it didn’t clear up my understanding!

I was just going to leave it at that and move on but I noticed I no longer had FaceID. My phone said there was an issue. When I looked into the parts and service history on my phone, it advised that non-genuine parts had been used…this despite it clearly stating on the GR website that genuine Apple parts are available. I emailed them again to ask if genuine parts were used and received no response.

My advice is steer clear of these guys as they were not transparent and in my opinion provided a very unsatisfactory experience.

Lies, Lies and More Lies – I bought in my DUAL SIM INTERNATIONAL Samsung S8 for repair. You couldn't get them here in Aust at the time. They replaced my International dual sim with an AMERICAN SINGLE SIM Samsung S8 without my knowledge or permission! They then denied and denied it was a DUAL SIM I bought in! On two occasions, months apart, I bought it in. The suggestion I… Read more

did not tell them it was a DUAL SIM that you COULDNT GET HERE IN Australia, is beyond ridiculous! I had to take these clowns to court and was compensated. GR phones claimed they ''replaced my motherboard''. It was never replaced they just replaced my old phone with another!) and no evidence was provided to the court of a BILL OF SALE FOR THE MOTHERBOARD. Also, the invoice to me they had the model number with THREE MISSING LETTERS at the end!!! The AMERICAN MOBILE means I cant even upgrade to 4G! I found GR Phones to be dishonest and deceptive. If I had my way, GR Phones would be closed; it's employees and Management deported. Australia would be better off! AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

Got some quotes to replace my lightening port and thought I may as well do the battery as well, they offered a $20 discount to do both together which made them competitive with other quotes($220). They said I get a 3 month warranty which is very short and not confidence inspiring they only stand behind their battery supplier sources and work for… Read more

such a short time which is why I took a star off. I expect over a year of no more phone headaches for that kind of money. Anyway they were quick, my phone works and a bit more organised than the other places I called.

the speed of their service. Despite the complexity of the iPhone 14 Pro Max, they completed the repair quickly, without compromising on quality. This efficiency is a testament to their skill and dedication.

Moreover, GR Phones' presence across Adelaide, with five additional locations, speaks volumes about their reliability and the trust they have garnered in the community. It was reassuring to know that such expert service was easily accessible.

The combination of their technical prowess, use of genuine parts, and customer-centric approach makes GR Phones the go-to phone repair center in Adelaide. Their service for my iPhone 14 Pro Max was exceptional, reinforcing their reputation as the best in the city.

Very helpful – Sachin the proprietor was very helpful and even gave me a loan phone whilst mine was being repaired which was unexpected but greatly appreciated since the reliance on having a mobile is so important these days with 2-step verification etc. Invaluable
