Very helpful staff. Definitely the place to go for the more technical side of electronics, with plenty of product and the staff being very knowledgeable.
Like a companies last effort to get a job done. Great place for home work. But if you work like a normal person good luck getting to store. You only can on the weekend if you have time. Would make money from working pros who get off the same time they close.
Very helpful techs... good prices.
Great shop for computer parts. Helpful and knowledgeable staff.
Excellent service. Recommend.
I found the gaming chair I wanted. The staff were helpful in answering my questions.
They Handle my computer problem and were able to fix the situation. Great Customer service.
This is the absolute best place to going to get for us TECHY individuals, prices are fair, the staff and service are out of this world they far exceed bestbuy and I know that because bestbuy is a retailer aimed at generalizations of the simple consumers and not toward the actually technical support and server, or network industrial options that many may seek, also check into Darkwarriors as they are a great source to building ones business reputation and promoting small businesses. Altex is and will be a great contender when they grow further, as I hope to see more businesses like them come to play in the next few years, offering wires, relays, encloderurs, cases, bit mining rigs, graphics cards, audio, speakers, wifi solutions, gaming, desktops, custom builds, water cooling system, and so do so much more give them a visit youll have a blast and who know maybe youll learn a thing or two about what real customer service feels like when ran properly and honestly, they are not shy and not hard to deal with they are simply put a model business that wal Mart being the disgrace that it is to any business, outta learn a thing or too about from companys such as altex
Great selection at reasonable prices. The staff is knowledgeable and friendly. Great place to find the odd cable or adapter you need, or a missing component. They also have alot of A/V cabling and connectors, stuff for home theater, and gaming.
Be careful, many items are priced well above retail price. For example a monitor that I was looking at was $470 here when every other seller around and online had it for $300.
Awesome service. Im a public school teacher and needed to setup my outdated Elmo (document camera) provided by my campus, for online teaching. However, the Elmo did not have connections that would hook up to my more current laptop. John helped me find the right cable and made sure it worked properly before even checking me out. He moved some display items to set everything up and connect to the net. After some searching he found the right software needed, and now Im able to use the Elmo with my newer laptop. With his help, I am now able to teach my classes more effectively. Thanks John, its very much appreciated!
Altex has all the electronic equipment that i need. I mainly get connectors but they have a large variety of items for any electronic/computer needs one may have. The staff has always been very helpful in finding items i need or explaining how they work. Like everywhere else you need to wear a mask however this is one electronics store i highly recommend. Plus there are plenty of nearby restaurants near by to catch a bite to eat.
Very helpful and knowledgeable.
Nice staff.Very helpful!
Found what we were looking for thanks 😊
Fast service. Friendly, knowledgeable staff. Masked for covid.
Awesome place, they helped me fix problems with my new PC build. Everyone of the staff was super helpful and was willing to set aside time to check and go over the problems I was experiencing with my PC. Two in particular was Jon and Silby, you can not get any better customer service then these two gentlemen who not only helped me but taught me a ton involving computers. Even other repair shops will vouch for how great there technician is, he even made my case and wiring look absolutely gorgeous. If you have any issue with a PC bring it over to Altex they are badasses.
They had just what I needed at a very good price!
Absolutely outstanding customer service. Way better than the big box store. Silby was amazing working on my moms computer and went way above and beyond to help her! I cannot say enough good things about how friendly and helpful the staff is here. And Silby is super if you need your computer worked on! Will definitely be back!
Altex always goes above and beyond to fill our requirements. Marcos is extremely professional, experienced and helpful.
The associate John G. was an incredible help. He was patient with my questions and took the time to help me. I cant recommend this store enough. Dont buy on Amazon when you can get personal help!
Great service. Silby was not able to repair my last computer....but gave me truthful answers.Never even tried to sell me a new one!Im not computer savvy so asked him to talk to me like I was six. He did without making me feel like a complete idiot.🙃The one before was an easy fix which he did with no charge.Love this place. I tell everyone I know about it.I will never go any place else.
I can always go there with the notion that I will find my electronic needs.
My favorite store.
AwesomePerry was great, so helpful and friendly. Definitely will use them again if the need arises. Thanks Perry.
Very pricey...very..but makes up for it with a large selection
They got everything I want and need!
These guys know their stuff. They either have the parts I need or know where I can get them. Top notch.
Great visit
Electronics galore! Radioshack is long gone, but this place has all the electronics for a hobbyist to enjoy.
My hard drive for my business crashed a week ago. Altex was able to help me recover the files I needed—numerous trips as I discovered files I was missing. Great service and super helpful! Highly recommend! They saved me hours of work and I’m very grateful.
As soon as RTX 3090 came out and then running out of stocks i called Altex and asked them about the stock, then they have add me to their list since i was the first caller about it. Then they called me today that they are going to have RTX 3090 and if i wanted one. it was so quick and helpful. i was also having problem with my internet not getting 1 gig, i was getting 720 mb/s at most. I told them my problem they offered me a budget router and now im getting 960 on speed test. Thank you all!
The guys are the Bomb! Super Great Service and they know their stuff! Highly recommend them! John Sabol is the best. Patient and thorough!
I Came in a few days ago. Their technician Silby was the absolute best. Looked at my computer and was not only spot on with his diagnostics and was very friendly. He helped me pick out my new parts and even showed me why it went bad..This is one of the best places i have been to for not only service for my computer but parts as well. I will be back for sure.
We had a very critical Hard Drive go down and Silby, the technician, assisted us. He was extremely savvy, helpful and friendly. He offered several alternatives for how to retrieve the data and was able to create a clone image of this device. The process of transferring/cloning the data was superb and the user was up and running (with a new Hard Drive) before lunch like nothing had happened! Exceptionally reasonable cost, too. Thanks to the other staff that helped us out, as well.
Prices could be better... Unwilling to price match with Amazon unlike another retailer in corpus. Excellent place to find tools though.
They had the extensions with breakers that we were looking for. Not reasonable, but worth it.
Great place for all of your security technology needs and computer upgrades very clean, friendly, knowledgeable staff I will be back again
Real friendly employees. Their greetings are dull, there was a man doing shipment Im assuming, he was nice. Our cashier did not acknowledge us when she was supposedly on the phone (we did not hear her talking while she was 3 ft away from us) so I am assuming she was on her personal phone when we asked for assistance. Her demeanor was rude and unwelcoming nor appreciative of our business. The employee besides her was bluntly staring at us while she was cashing us out which made me feel rushed.
I have never had an easier experience in my life. Silby is the one that helped us. Goodness gracious he was so nice and helpful. He gave us lots of helpful info and made us laugh in the process! Thank you so much!!! We will definitely be back!!!
They used to be a great help a great place to go before I was given 10 Stars if I could however I have a medical condition where I cannot wear a mask I wont go into the details here that being said they kicked me out of the store I will never return good riddance hope to store does well but they need to learn manners
Only went in to pick up a pre ordered anti static pad but I was helped quickly and the staff were friendly.
A great place to go to handle all your electronics needs and tools. Always ready to help you. Very knowledgeable. Shop here often for cat wire, tools, replacement batteries for back ups and wire accessories. This picture of soldering irons shows you a large selection to choose from.
Definitely a goto place for your electronic computer needs. All kinds of cabling and computer parts you cant get at best buy
This store was perfectly balanced. Defeating the avengers was easy thanks to the employees at Altex. I found all the parts I needed to repair my space ship, even if they didnt have it in stock. I know who Ill be sparring in the next snap.
Wasnt very impressed by the selection. Went there to purchase a motherboard, but the few they had were outdated and overpriced. The few b450s they had were $50-$70 more than what you could purchase on Newegg. It seemed like the store was more of a place to buy prebuilt PCs rather than computer parts.
Sales personal work on commission. Weighing out the difference between Best buy and Altex for your computer needs would need to be considered keeping in mind Altex dont sell anything Apple. They do have budget buy on merchandise but the majority of the product they sell is high dollar. I like them but I dont shop there more than twice a year, maybe....
Great selection and good prices. The staff actually knows about the products they sell and are very helpful. The salesperson there actually recommended a laptop that was $700. dollars cheaper and demonstrating the components that made it better!
Always good customer service. 9 times out of 10 they have what you need. Theyll help you find it even when they dont.
I havent been there in a while but just as expected, always great service and great prices!!! Im glad to see that nothing has changed!
They are awesome! They have a good selection of computers, computer accessories, wires, tools, and security cameras. Heck they can even help you build your computer from start to finish. Not to mention they offer service for computers as well.
The best place for information from people who know. They deserve your business and your purchases.
Ive been going to Altex for years and they only get better every time I go. Silby is very entertaining as well as, amazing at making things happen with a piece of junk computer. Perry was also very knowledgeable and genuinely kind.
Friendly staff, and they dont try to oversell to something you dont need. I greatly appreciate that fact!
Good selection as always, but also as always somewhat disorganized as to labeling their sections. Also had a fairly long wait before I could get some help - they were understaffed (it was admittedly during lunch time). The associate who finally helped me however was knowledgeable and able to direct me to the section I needed quickly.
No ham radio connect hardware.But tons of stuff for the pro.
Man. I used to go to Altex all the time whenever I needed something for my computer. The staff were always helpful and eager to assist any customer that walked in. Today I go in and the only time an employee said a word to me was Are you ready to check out? If you want to see apathy in action Altex is the place to go.
Great expert advice from the techs, and their inventory is very next gen
About the only place left in town left to buy electronic parts. Order online for in storre pick up available.
Always have what I need!
The man at the counter was rude ! When I asked for help, will never go back .
Went in and Mr. James Jones helped me get my Dj light switch working 100 %. It was a pretty inexpensive part, but I’m glad he took the time to help me. Big time Kudos to Mr. Jones and his team.
Definitely had an amazing variety of things in the store. IT paradise. People are even way patient and reasonable despite my second return. Definitely will go only there for my stuff.
A big Thank You to Altex - Corpus Christi and their technician, Silby. He was able to diagnose and fix my desktop in just a few minutes.
This place has a lot of your hard to find components that no one else seems to carry. You can also get knowledgeable advice on all your electronic needs. Great service too.
Very friendly and knowledgeable staff, something thats very hard to find these days. This is also heat shrink heaven. They have every size and every color imaginable. I love the Corpus store, plus veterans get a discount!
Very busy @ time. Had to wait a bit. CS rep was very helpful and diagnosed laptop quickly.
Had to have my laptop fixed. Wasnt running right and thought I lost everything. Altex computers is the way to go. Great pricing and he was able to save all my data that I thought I lost. I couldnt be happier. Thank you!
These people need to actually learn about the products they sell and what they are used for. The prices are insane on gaming computer stuff and all of it is ancient. Grow with the times or youll die like the rest.
Great electronics store. Needed an adapter for HDMi to VGA for my p.c. they had it. And at a reasonable price. Shop here for all your electronic needs.
Always Excellent Service 👌 and Always has what I need. Thank You 😊
Very poor service. All you get here is good inventory. Good luck asking for help
The staff here is always helpful, and eager to assist if you any questions. They have a very good stock of supplies for networking and system upgrades. Also lots of gadgets and tools. They have security system hardware and rack mount hardware too.
Could not run my business without them. Friendly, helpful always go the e tra mile
This is a smaller version of Frys, which owns them incidentally. It is only electronics without all the other things which are found in a Frys store! I went looking for a specific cable (3 ft.ded in length with male connectors at both ends) for our television, but found so many cables that I quickly decided to ask for assistance. There were two people on duty when I entered, but by the time I had stood waiting at the checkout counter for approximately 15 minutes only one clerk who was assisting another customer, had appeared! Finally the second employee made an appearance and easily found the cable for me. Prices-5 stars. Selection of product- 5 stars. Service- 1 star!
Customer service is great. Especially cause I usually go in there having no clue what I need or how or if I can fix my problem. And every time I e gone in they sure got me set up and educated on my device. Thank you marcus
Always had what I need. Networking essentials
The guys there know their stuff. They have everything you could possibly need or want when it comes to electronics. And there are amazingly cheap in the price department. My favorite store ever.
After purchasing an item I apparently didnt need and letting the return period pass, I still asked for a refund, and it was cheerfully given. That alone is terrific and is a fantastic first impression.I expect to return whenever I have need for their goods.The initial people I spoke with need to work on their customer service, but asking for the manager on duty made all the difference in the world.
Wide variety and availability of items. Good stop for electronic parts or equipment.
A fantastic place to to shop for all your computers needs the staff is very helpful and knowledge is great
Helped me diagnose my graphics card issue and didnt even charge me! Lovely knowledgable people. I will for sure be back!
The only place our company shops for parts and equipment for our onsite tech support. Great customer service, they answer the phone and will check prices and availability without having to go through an automated system to get to them!
Staff know what they’re doing! As someone new to pc gaming, I came in here to see what cables I needed to install a second hard drive. I had already tried to do this at BestBuy since I have a warranty on my tower through them, but they had no idea what I was even talking about. Finally one of the managers recommended Altex. The Altex staff told me very clearly what was needed and even showed me how to install it all for free. Excellent customer service, I will certainly be back for all of my computer needs!
They always have what im looking for and at such reasonable prices. The staff knows there stuff and are always so helpful
The man listened he brought it to where we were trying to find it works felt very good thank you
Great assortment of shrink tubing I use on my ear peices of my glasses. Original ear peices are hard to find. Jim Ed Layton turned me on to this place.
Friendly Sales and Service ... Used my digital Gift Card ( Christmas gift ). Card status and balance kept on their register !!!
Helped me solve a problem over the phone quickly and efficiently. I didnt even have to go to the store to come to the conclusion that these guys know what they are doing. Very knowledgeable and helpful, 5/5.
Normally computer places will try to rake you over the coals, but altex has always treated me well and never tried to get me to buy something I didnt need or over charge me for something. Theyre a very honest company and that can be hard to find these days. I only take my computers here if they need repaired or any diagnostic work done.
Good selection of computers and parts with a friendly staff.
Reasonable prices and friendly staff.
This place is good for emergency replacements around the office otherwise it is a bit expensive.
This is kind of a cross between Radio Shack and Best Buy. They sometimes do not have the latest technology and items can be over priced. However, they are typically a one stop shop if you have several needs. It will likely save you time from going to multiple stores. They have a computer repair shop, but I have not used it and cannot comment about their services.
Great staff and fair prices. Technology experts. Recommend them highly.
Great and knowledgeable staff. Cant always find what youre looking for, but youve got a good 80 percent chance, if not the staff always offer to get one for you.
Good place to get computer parts and unique accessories. Well kept up and well managed.-AP
It was awesome in and out got what I needed
Really bad service. Dont expect to resolve your problem. Do you want a clerk, that is all you get.
