Frequently asked questions

An unlocked iPhone 13 means that the phone is not tied to any specific carrier or contract. It can be used with any GSM or CDMA network provider by inserting a SIM card from that provider. This provides flexibility for the user to choose their preferred network or switch carriers without needing a new phone.

A renewed iPhone 13 has been inspected, tested, and restored to full working condition by Amazon-qualified suppliers. Renewed products may have been returned by customers or refurbished. While they are not brand new, they should work like new, and they often come at a discounted price.

The renewed iPhone 13 typically comes with a 90-day Amazon Renewed Guarantee. This assures buyers that the product can be replaced or refunded within 90 days of receipt if it does not work as expected.

While accessories may vary based on the seller, a renewed iPhone 13 generally comes with all essential accessories needed for it to function, such as a charger and a SIM ejector tool. However, it might not come with headphones or the original packaging.

  • Trustworthy Quality and Impeccable Performance
Size: 256GB Color: Blue Service provider: Unlocked Product grade: Renewed
The media could not be loaded. The purchase was excellent. The iPhone 13 arrived without any cosmetic issues, with a battery at 88% that still lasted the entire day without problems. All of its parts were original, which gave me great peace of mind and confidence in the product. It was a very satisfying purchase, truly a device in excellent condition with impeccable performance. Because of this positive experience, I am now buying again, this time an iPhone 15 Pro with 256 GB, trusting that it will arrive with the same quality and care as my previous order. I really appreciate that you send original and well‑preserved devices, because that makes a big difference and builds trust to continue choosing you. ... show more

  • Great deal
Came as described absolutely no damage etc, only had one flaw which does not effect operation at all. Had a small split in one of the camera lens covers barely noticeable. Battery was at 94 health. All in all a great buy.

  • A Fine Phone with One Imperfection
Size: 128GB Color: Midnight Service provider: Unlocked Product grade: Renewed Premium
This was a gift for our daughter on her 13th birthday, her first phone. The battery health was 95 percent, the body of the phone looked new, and it has worked perfectly for her so far. It was packaged well and shipped fast. The charge cord it came with was generic, but it works. The only reason I am rating it 4 stars rather than five is that the screen had a rather large smudge scratch. Fortunately, once a screen protector was placed on it, the scratch became difficult to see. Given that you pay more for a renewed premium product, I just don’t think the phone’s condition quite meets the promised standard. Even so, overall we are pleased with the purchase so far, and our daughter is happy with the phone. We may go the renewed premium route for our next child when he gets old enough because of this experience. ... show more

  • Good enough but I expected excellent to be excellent
Size: 128GB Color: Midnight Service provider: Unlocked Product grade: Renewed
Reason for only 3 stars. I ordered renewed excellent but I would personally consider this to be in the acceptable range. The screen has been polished so hard that it is no longer a piece of flat glass and it won't accept a screen protector. There are at least two deep gouges in the metal housing and the battery is at 86% capacity. That mean i'm 6% away from a permanent slow down, $90 at an Apple authorized repair facility to fix that. Reason I am happy to have it. The price is right, cheaper than going to a local shop and getting gouged on a used phone. It functions as expected, everything. There does not seem to be any non-apple parts installed, there is no data for the replacement parts under setting -> general like you will see if you replace the screen with a third party part. It's easy to be happy as well, personally, because I had to revert back to the iphone 11 with a seriously degraded battery so jumping up to the 13 is a relief from pain (the pain of using a seriously slow phone). ... show more

  • Green IPhone 13 256gb Premium
Received the phone 3/26. Immaculate condition, no blemishes (sorry for the dust and reflection) Battery health 100%. Checked with Apple support and phone has no signs of hardware failure. Partially wondering if this is a brand new phone because it far exceeds my expectations of a refurbished device. The extra $40 from excellent condition to premium is absolutely worth it. Will update review if any issues arise. ... show more

  • Great Purchase!!
Size: 128GB Color: Midnight Service provider: Unlocked Product grade: Renewed
I’m so happy with this purchase! My old iPhone 11 suddenly went black and wouldn’t turn back on, and since I’m on a tight budget but still need a reliable phone, I decided to try a refurbished one. I’m really glad I did. The phone looks brand new—no scratches or cracks at all—and it works perfectly. I simply inserted my old SIM card, and all my information transferred over without any issues. This turned out to be one of the best purchases I could have made! ... show more

  • Renewed but like new
Size: 256GB Color: Midnight Service provider: Verizon Product grade: Renewed
I do not need the latest and greatest smart phone nor do I want to pay for one. I have had good luck with Amazon renewed electronic devices before so I chose a renewed iPhone 13. The phone came the next day via FedEx. It had no discernible scratches or marks on the screen or case. The battery charged to 100%. The new phone easily found my iPhone X and transferred everything easily. iPhone 13 needs a physical Sim card and it was a simple matter of transferring that from the old phone. However, it was a 4G card and the iPhone 13 will do 5G so you can get one from your wireless carrier. Apps load quick enough for me and so does the photo gallery. I don’t do games so no comment for that. Thin enough for me and sturdy in your hand. Speaker is very clear and goes much louder than the X. Overall very pleased. ... show more
