    Their prices are about the same as Fry's. Fry's has a larger selection and has really amazing sales periodically. Though if you need help from a human, Microcenter has them beat hands down!

    Great store, but their Service Department needs an improvement. To return something requires long waiting in the line since both repairs and returns are served by one person.

    Has an amazing selection of computer parts and equipment. It also has some high quality Twitch stream gear here. Just be ready to open your wallet for the high quality/name brand items.

    Wow the new facility is absolutely wonderful especially compared to the layout of the old Microcenter so if you have a minute ago to check it out it's worth it

    Great service. I highly recommend checking in with the customer service directly if there are any technical difficulties.

    Great store, I shop there all the time. Just FYI... they moved to 5305 S Rice Ave 77081, which is not too far from their old location. Tried to update the address but it won't.

    I've always found this store exceptionally depressing. Prices are so-so...only reason to go there is location if you don't want to drive to Frys or deal with Directron.

    They keep all the good stuff in the back. 3D printers, computer parts, and hardware hacking supplies.

    I can't leave here without buying something. Sales staff and managers won't come after you for help. You just need to know what you need before you get there

    Pay 'em a visit! They have good prices, competent salespeople, and play some pretty cool music (e.g., The Bird and The Bee).

    Good selection but watch for sales & compare with pricing from sites like Newegg.com as MEI can be overpriced on some items.

    The old location had more character. The new location feels smaller and more cluttered.

    Still remember the day they opened. So awesome when all we had was CompUSA to compare. Now Fry's totally trashes their prices (although not service). At least they're conveniently located.

    Do NOT Buy Extended Warranty! Bought tablet & 3 yr extended warranty. 4 months later wouldn’t boot. Was charged $50 to fix. WARRANTY WAS WORTHLESS. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY! GET REPAIRS ELSEWHERE!
