I'm in front of my computer for 16+ hours a day for work, and thus do not need many functions i.e. internet on my phone. I only use my phone to do mobile emails among friends when I get lost on the s...
Computer Shops, Consumer Electronics, Computer Support ( Ginza )
The Ginza Apple store seemed like any U.S. apple store. The staff was friendly and available, and the products were spectacular, like they always are. I wandered around for a bit, but it mostly felt l...

The Japanese version of Walmart with the exception of a floor selling luxury goods under lock and key...even then, I wouldn't purchase anything designer here because I have heard that they are sometim...
This place has a great atmosphere and seems always really crowded. I also feel comfortable it’s part of Laox and so I might be a bit bias because of that. In any case like other game stores you’ll...
This is a pretty good electronics store which you'll probably notice for it's abundance of really high tech looking phones on the ground level which is mostly open-front. This is where I purchased my ...
While I’m sure the electronics part of this store is excellent, the real bargain is in the basement. It’s a food and household items store rivaling nearby department store Life in price and variet...

This store is within great convenience of the station, just on the left side of the main central Akihabara town exit. I guess this store caters for the mainstream audience since its main products are ...
Laox is another huge kind retailer very similar to the likes of Yodobashi, though not quite the same size. This store in particular is geared a little towards tourists and foreigners, hence the big Du...
