  • When Buying Second Hand...
When buying a second hand device, the ratings: Used Like New, Used Very Good, Used Good and Used Acceptable are important. Your device will look a certain way depending on what you choose. With that said, different suppliers may have a subjective take on what each of these means. Pros: Having never owned an iPhone before, this thing blew me away in spite the slight cosmetic imperfections. Its beautiful and I love it. And it was affordable! -Every thing works well. I got the 128gb version. Great sound, great screen, great experience Cons: The learning curve if this is your first time using iOS. Granted, you will experience this no matter what version iPhone you get. Things work differently here. Not so much that you cant adapt but enough to frustrate. -Battery life was at 86% which though good, was scary. 14% is a lot were I come from. -Those cosmetic scratches took me aback, then I remembered I chose USED: ACCEPTABLE. That humbled me real quick. With that said, still love it, bought a case already. -If you have already experienced a device with 120Hz refresh rate, this will throw you off. You might get disappointed. If you haven't, then great! -Also, if you are stepping down from a more advanced iPhone and short on cash, buying second hand is as you have more choices. But, you will always be reminded someone used it before you so make sure you are already comfortable buying on the second hand market. -Still haven't gotten rid of my android. Was going to but after the learning curve on iPhone, I think having both phones is the better choice. Sorry Tim Cook... ... show more

  • Decently priced
The phone looked almost brand new and had high battery percentage. Im extremely satisfied with my purchase especially since you got 30 days to return it if you find any defects.

  • POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE AND DEFECTIVE PHONE WITHOUT ANY RECOURSE
I recently purchased Renewed iphone 12 from SYNERGY TM. I understood that renewed was no indication of perfect but that it was in excellent condition and that it was diagnostically tested. However upon receiving the product and without much use, I realize that it was overheating. I contacted the SYNERGY about this issue and they said I should return which is reasonable on their part. However, this was not reasonable for me, I am an international customer and as such I had to pay over $200 dollars in additional shipping and handling. I communicated the financial disadvantages to SYNERGY and suggest that it would be more economically viable to fix the phone locally and then they could refund me the cost of the repairs. They insisted that I should return but with further insistence they offered me a $25 refund, which would not cover the Technician's fees. By this time, the phone was now not charging all together. I took me about 3 hours before I could get it back to remove my data and reset the phone. I did my research and I was able to get DHL to attempt return the product. New problem is, they were unable to deliver to SYNERGY because their location was closed on a Monday at 12:52 pm and no one sees it fit to respond to my request. I am urging Amazon to look into this matter ASAP. A phone that I bought for $310 is now costing me upwards of $800 and I still don't have a phone to use. ... show more

  • Worked flawlessly but no Personal Hotspot
This phone worked flawlessly with no issues. However I have noticed that even though it was fully unlocked, the Personal Hotspot feature is greyed out. When the SIM is used in my old iPhone 8 the personal hotspot feature worked fine.

  • Saved some cash on a new-to-us phone with a refurb
The spouse needed a new iPhone to replace the old iPhone 6 SE Apple that won't even update anymore. Years ago we replaced the battery on the old one and it was getting weak again, so it was way past time. I was glad the refurbished unit I received was exactly as described. The battery shows 88% life left, decently over the promised value. I saw minor scratches in the metal but nothing really noticeable. I ordered a case and glass screen protector and you can't even tell it's not brand new. The size of the phone is slightly taller and wider than the old 6 SE, so it seems familiar, but the face of the screen is MUCH larger, making it more usable. It works very similarly to the old phone, except for having no physical home button. The home gestures work easily and the setup had everything PLUS updates making all the old apps work, so the spouse was quite happy. I, too, was happy doing "tech support," because Apple does all the heavy lifting. Just kick off a backup to iCloud on the old phone (in case something goes wrong). When the backup finishes, move the SIM card to the new phone and turn it on. Set the new phone next to the old one, and follow the prompts. The data comes across and much of the setup will be just as expected. I think if you're getting an Apple phone, a recent model certified refurbished phone is a good way to save a bit of money. ... show more
