For starters; the price on these phones is great. Between having the reassurance of Amazon buyer protection, and the benefit of knowing the device has been tested for performance, it’s well worth it. I needed a new phone fast after my cat knocked mine into the sink ā˜¹ļø Rice fixed it for a while, but it was only temporary before it died altogether. I hate buying phones and avoid it whenever possible. 99% of mine belonged to someone in my family first. And i was good with that. Needless to say, my cat didn’t wait for someone in my family to upgrade. I was on my own this time. Okay.... that’s not entirely true. My grandma had an iPhone 7 sitting around so that held me over in the meantime. Going from an iPhone 11 Pro Max to an iPhone 7 was….bad. It was too dam small, in every possible way. 32 gigs of memory!! I needed an upgrade. Fast. My 11 year old was bullying me relentlessly. And that’s on me. They had my old XR (formerly my dad’s) I scoured FB marketplace. I’d decided upgrade a little, so I could feel better about the switch. I didn’t want to feel backed me into a corner by my cat’s recklessness. I would get a slightly newer model in a fun colour. Marketplace had plenty. Sending message after message from my iPhone 7, I worried. ā€œThis person seems too eagerā€, ā€œthis one has been posted so longā€, ā€œI want a purple, but the only purple one listed has less storage spaceā€ and ā€œthe pretty green one has a small crackā€, ā€œthis guy lives 2 hours from meā€ and ā€œBattery life? Errr last time I checked it was like 74%?….no, I can’t take a screenshot of it, it’s turned offā€ā€¦. ā€œcash only pleaseā€ Etc. So much pressure. What happens if the thing doesn’t work? That’s $300+ down the drain. I knew I couldn’t afford new. But I hated the idea of buying something used from a stranger on Facebook. I didn’t want to get scammed, and I also didn’t want to settle. That’s when I remembered good ol’ Amazon. Maybe I’d check there. Just for funsies. Probably out of my budget, but it couldn’t hurt. Sure enough, refurbished devices selling ā€œlike new!ā€ Mostly same cost or less than what I’d found so far. Surely there was a catch? I read through everything, tested by Amazon, includes all the specs, unlocked, I can pick the colour, the storage size, the condition, etc. AND I could have it delivered to me tomorrow??! With a warranty?!! I recovered from my brief stint of disappointment after learning the 12’s don’t come in yellow. Then fought hard to decide between mint and lavender. The lavender would take an extra day to arrive. Mint it was!! As promised, it arrived the next day. It was in beautiful shape. 128g’s, mint green, not a single scratch, 86% battery life. All for less than I would have paid to some stranger for a 64g with some ā€œsmall scratchesā€ Once my case and screen protector arrived I excitedly set it up and synced my data. Oh no. The FACE ID DIDNT WORK 😭 After becoming used to facial recognition, having that yanked away, and dealing with a 7 for over 2 weeks— I was desperate for the convenience of Face ID. I had been using my fingerprint. Like a *caveman*. Not to mention I have Blink 182 tickets, and it specifically states facial recognition is required to access the mobile tickets. Idk if that’s true, but I needed Face ID!! I googled, I contacted apple support. Fixing it could be upwards of $300. That’s almost what I paid for the whole phone!! I realllllly didn’t want to be stuck without a phone again. But I also wanted one fully functioning. So I reached out to Amazon support and explained. The rep was incredibly helpful (as most Amazon reps are) and after bts failed, she advised the ship was a 3rd party seller, and she send a message to them. ā€œIf they don’t fix it by (insert date) contact us back and we’ll make this rightā€ she encouraged. I’m ngl. I was nervous. I didn’t have high hopes, having dealt with 3p sellers on Amazon in the past. At least Amazon had my back, ig. The concert wasn’t till July. Even without facial recognition, it was loads better than the 7. I could make do in the meantime. The seller came in clutch though, and my worry was unwarranted. They responded within minutes. They were receptive, apologetic, and more than willing to help. As I’d anticipated, they offered a refund or exchange, as soon as they received the return. I explained my concern with not having a phone for several days or more; and the merchant offered to overnight a replacement as soon as the return was dropped off. I could deal with one day without a phone! I gratefully accepted. That was Saturday night, we made plans to catch up Monday for the return instructions and for them to overnight it. Monday I reached back out; and they were ready to ship, BUT they *had no more green….* 🫢 SHOCK ā€œā€¦do you have purpleā€ No. :( just blue, white, and black. THIS WAS A HUGE BUMMER.It’s silly I know, and the definition of *first world problems ā€œ.. but I mean…. My change of heart about this whole phone thing HINGED ON THE FUN COLOUR. Without it, I was just a person…out $350… because my cat was thirsty while I was watching YouTube while washing dishes. I needed a cool colour. Plus, I’d already gotten the matching case! Clear with mint green borders. It wasn’t even a fun blue… it was a dark, serious, navy blue. It was pretty and classy, but I wanted something fun. I even asked if he had any older models in yellow 😭😭 no luck, They told me they’d be restocking in a day or so. Still, no greens or purples came in. Ugh. Reality was setting in. I was going to have to settle. It was fine, I thought. At least it would be a fully functioning phone. No. I wasn’t ready to let go. They assured me I could take my time to decide, and I asked if we could wait another week in case one came in. If it didn’t, *then* I would choose from the options available. I messaged them Wednesday afternoon, bracing myself for the answer…. THEY GOT IN PURPLE! YAY. They sent a label, I dropped it off, sent a photo, and had my new phone the next morning. they’d said overnight shipping… but wow! I’d dropped off the return around 3pm, and had the replacement by noon the next day. I didn’t even have my new case yet šŸ˜… Despite the Barney-Esque colour scheme my mint green case created, the lavender is GORGEOUS and I’m actually sort of glad the green didn’t work out. Don’t get me wrong, the green is also gorgeous.. but in the end I’m glad I ended up with the lavender. I was overjoyed when I was prompted to set Face ID during setup. Worked brilliantly, as did everything else. Great packaging, no cosmetic flaws, amazing battery life, customer service was great, and best of all… ITS PURPLE! Can’t wait to pair it with the new case. I’m so glad I went this route where I have some peace of mind as a buyer. I’m grateful to the seller for being so helpful and patient with me as insufferable as I must have seemed making such a fuss over colour preference If you’re nervous buying a phone used or refurbished too, hopefully you can take comfort in knowing- this seller is legit. You receive a good quality product, and, speaking from experience, they’ll gladly help resolve any issues you may run into. ... show more

  • Amazing
Size: 64GB Color: Blue Service Provider: Unlocked Product grade: Renewed
Was renewed but works great . Both speakers amazingly . Super pretty . Did have some tiny scratches on the back but being refurbished we expected it and that does not have anything to do with how it works . Lightweight of course and easily fits in my hand. Slim . Comfortable. Seems decently durable however it’s an iPhone and all iPhones shatter. Compatible with my other iPhone and was super easy setting up and transferring all my data over ... show more

  • very nice condition
Size: 64GB Color: Black Service Provider: Unlocked Product grade: Renewed Premium
This renewed phone is excellent! It arrived right on time, and when I unboxed it, I noticed only minimal scratches on the chassis and a slight scuff on the bottom right—nothing major, especially since I use a case. The screen is in near-perfect condition with little to no visible scratches and no cracks. Plus, it's the original screen. The battery came at 79%, which isn’t ideal, but it easily lasts me a full day or more, so I have no complaints. If you're unsure about the color, I highly recommend the blue—it looks fantastic! The cameras are also impressive, especially in low light. The package included a working power cord, though the power brick didn’t function, but that’s not a big deal since I have extras. Overall, this refurbished phone is a great buy, and I’d definitely recommend it! ... show more

  • OLED Flicker is Very Annoying
Size: 256GB Color: Red Service Provider: Unlocked Product grade: Renewed
I've grown to like this device a lot despite the absence of a physical home button. I transition to this one from an iPhone 8 Plus (only because that one is like, not receiving updates anymore), and it was a bit jarring at first, but I got used to using this new one after like a month. right out of the box the screen and metal shell were in really good condition with only one scratch on the upper right of the casing. The screen is perfectly responsive even through a protective screen and all the haptics/gestures work perfectly. One thing that this device does that I really don't like, is that it has had this weird flicker whenever the screen is very dark or black. this iPhone has been doing this since the day I received it, and initially I thought nothing of it; then I remembered that my old iPhone doesnt do this at all.. I don't know what it is, but it's very odd and at times interferes with some of the ways I use the device. I opted not to return it because other people I know who have this version of iPhone said their phone did that at some point too and they either ignored it or they updated their device and the problem resolved itself. I had to remember that this is a used handset and this issue with how it handles black is literally one of two faults that the item has. The vender was pretty meticulous with support, packaging, instructions, and they even included a new charger in the box that works very well and is a bit thicker than the OEM parts so it's still in good shape too. I think it was worth keeping overall, but will still wonder about this flicker for the duration of the time that I use this iPhone. ... show more

  • This is amazing!! I’m shocked!!
Size: 128GB Color: White Service Provider: Unlocked Product grade: Renewed
The media could not be loaded. So this was delivered late by a day which is the only downside of it. I don’t ever spend this much money on myself and I was so nervous when I did. I’ve had the XR for about 4 years now. Only 64gb which kinda sucked so I decided I was going to get a new phone. Mainly just an upgrade but also for more storage and better camera quality. It feels nice and the color is really pretty. Touch screen works but it’s kinda bugging on me because of the screen protector. Screen quality is amazing, not one scratch or scuff on it, it’s brand new. Battery came half way charged but maximum capacity is 100%, as shown in the video, which tells me that the battery was replaced and is brand new. Durability I’m worried about. Especially with it being new, I’m afraid to drop it. But other than that, it’s amazing and the seller has amazing products in my opinion. I would definitely buy this again in the future. It’s not too expensive but not cheap, which is wonderful! ... show more
