Apple Iphone XS Max, 512GB, Silver – Fully Unlocked (Renewed) Sold by: Gryphon Commerce Used IPhone are expensive so I always purchase them as Amazon fulfilled (which are rear these day) or amazon Renewed. That is my insurance policy against ripped off by 3rd party sellers. Battery health is at 90% which is not bad for a used phone. Condition of the phone is excellent. It has been a over a month now and is performing as expected (no identifiable defects). In the past few years, I have had to invest in used IPhones for my kids because American school kids have formed a “closed IPhone network”. If your kid does not have an IPhone, then they are left out of the Facetiming and group chats. Many of them do not even know of Android. The closest thing they know of an android is a Samsung. As a parent, all you can do is to ask you kid to suck it up and use his or her being avoided/left-out, to study. But life does not work like that for Gen Z. They are so sensitive to belonging at this age that you don’t want to add to their stress and depression by adding to their isolation from friends just because they can’t be reach by Facetime or the exclusive iPhone chat groups. So, as a concerned parent, and for the sanity of your child, you hit the used IPhone market for affordability while I myself continue to use a cheapo Android phone. Going through this process for 3 teenage kids, I have learned a few lessons. Thoroughly check the performance of every function immediately after you receive your phone. Your return window starts counting down the day it is delivered. I find TestM (Check Phone & Report App) very useful. It will test every functionality on your IPhone. Start using your phone immediately so that if there is a defect that is unacceptable, you may catch it before it is too late. Although the price of IPhones are exorbitant, I have grown to appreciate their value. The first IPhone I purchased was in November, 2016, an Apple iPhone 6s Plus 128GB Unlocked (Certified Refurbished), Almost 5 years after it release, it has received all updates and is running the latest IOS 13. You don’t get such long support life from most android phones (except probably Google Pixel). It has gone through 3 screen replacement and it is still prodding on.

I needed an iOS 18 device, and the iPhone XS was the newest I could obtain without being forced to iOS 26. I’ll start with a few bad things that would have been a problem if this device wasn’t such a low $170 shipped: 1. The display turns yellow-green below 5% brightness. I keep the brightness higher and use Reduce White Point to avoid the ugly tinge. 2. The screen is brand-new, but came with a few light scuffs. Slight bummer when it could have been avoided. I also had to clean a bit of adhesive off with a toothpick from the screen install. 3. The frame came with a ton of scratches despite “excellent” condition. Despite these issues, here’s why I reviewed 5 stars: 1. Brand-new OLED screen. They didn’t cheap out with an LCD. I don’t even know how they did this at such a low price point. 2. OEM battery at 95% health. This could have just been luck, but I’m thrilled 3. After using a cape cod pad to polish the stainless steel frame, it truly is excellent condition. I attached before and after photos of the frame here. 4. Brand-new charger included Again, the pricing undercuts everyone. I truly don’t know how they refurbished an iPhone XS Max for only $170. My seller was “Electronic Deals” and it shipped from New York.

So, to start off with, it's an iPhone Xs Max. If you're looking for a review of the phone itself, skip this one. I ordered and I was very worried seeing a lot of people posting reviews about the condition of the phone they received. I carefully selected my seller who had a 90% positive review status, and while paying about 20 bucks over the lowest price, received a phone in what can only be called excellent condition. I would not be surprised if you told me the previous owner bought it and didnt take it out of its box during the entire duration of his ownership. The battery health was measured by the phone at 95% and it has no problems lasting me all day, and the exterior is completely flawless. Not a scratch, not a scuff, nothing. I did however take off a point for presentation. I was greeted with a fairly beat up cardboard box, and a generic charger that was dirty and a NON MFI power brick (I had bought a fast charger from anker at the same time anyway, highly recommend). All in all though, I would rather the seller skimp on the stuff that's not necessary or easily dealt with, especially when they're giving you a phone of phenomenal quality at a price that competes strongly with refurbishers who put far less effort into renewing phones

6 Months Later update - Still acts like I bought it yesterday. Everything is so smooth, fast, responsive, battery health is still great, and there have been no issues I know of whatsoever. Still have no regrets with this purchase and love this phone! (Original review is below.) First off, I would like to provide my experience with purchasing a used phone. I was very hesitant with this one. But Amazon has a wonderful return policy so I thought, if it isn't what I'm expecting, I can always return it. The things I was very concerned about with previous reviews is if the phone had been wiped correctly to be set up as a new iPhone, if the phone had been previously stolen, if the phone is truly 'unlocked', if the storage space was as I ordered, or if the phone was even a genuine Apple product in the first place! Upon opening it, I did find some light scratching on the front and back glass. Of course, this is to be expected. I'm very happy that there's nothing major at all. The stainless steel band is SPOTLESS. I powered it on, it greeted me with Apple's famous multilingual 'Hello' screen. And THANKFULLY the phone was indeed wiped properly before handed down. I set it up with my Apple ID and went straight to settings. I checked the Serial Number at Apple's website. And was so happy that what I received was a 100% genuine XS Max. I was also very happy to discover that the storage was what I ordered and that yes, the phone is unlocked. I also checked the battery health which is at 98%. Leading me to believe this phone had only been used lightly before. Everything checks out, I am thrilled! Coming from an iPhone 8 Plus, I notice that the phone feels equally as good in my hand. But the smoothness of the stainless steel just adds such a premium feel to it. And have I mentioned the gold is absolutely stunning!? I'm really happy I chose the XS Max over the 11 Pro Max. Mainly because of the rather strange looking new camera design. Being a huge fan of Touch ID, I was very upset about having to switch to Face ID. But honestly, it's actually a lot better than I expected it to be. Its quicker, more secure, and more convenient that your phone just knows that it's you. Now, Performance. This phone excels at pretty much all that I ask it to. Games are faster and smoother than I've ever experienced on a mobile device. (Even the Note 9 I had.) And the new OLED Super Retina Display makes movies, videos, and pictures just incredible. The blacks are SO dark, they blend in perfectly with the outer screen. The camera is unbelievable too. Photos are sharp with detail and the colors are impressive. So overall, my experience of purchasing a used phone couldn't have gone smoother. I am very happy with it! Just make sure you buy from a seller with a bunch of great reviews and you'll most likely get a truthful and legit product like I did.

I bought the phone on October 26, 2024. It looked to be in like new condition so originally I was happy with the purchase. Within a couple weeks it started giving me black screen where the phone was on and working but the screen was black and I couldn't use it at all. I contacted Amazon and they connected me to The Networkstore who said they were willing to give me a PARTIAL REBATE which would not help at all since I would still need a new phone and it's clear to me that this phone was defective before I ever received it. The next morning the phone was back working normally and so (dummy me) I let it go. Long story short, the phone got worse and worse, taking longer to "fix itself" until right after the return date ended in 3 months the phone screen started flashing and going to black screen even worse and by January, the phone was mostly unusable. 3 months. Now it's just completely dead. The Networkstore told me when I first contacted them (when the black screen first happened) that if it continues happening, they would be willing to help (along with the PARTIAL REFUND). After the return date expired and I again contacted them, they told me that they only meant they would help me get the screen working again. I had already tried everything possible. It's clearly a damaged phone not a software problem. The phone is dead and nothing short of a replacement will fix this. I did nothing to damage the phone. It was put in a full case the minute it was unpacked and was never dropped or mistreated in any way. For the most part it just sat on my desk in my office. It's obvious to me that this phone was ready to go out when they sold it. I know buying a refurbished phone is a risk but I think we should be able to assume that any parts that could go bad have been replaced so although it is a used phone, the parts that can go bad have been replaced. This company obviously does not do that and I will never use them again. Lesson learned. I do not recommend this company at all but if you do buy from them and your phone starts acting strange, contact them immediately and demand to return the phone. If you wait, you will lose your chance and will have wasted your money.

The XS max is my favorite model iPhone. Works like a charm. I would’ve had it on the same night but I had to get a physical SIM card. Anywho I went into the store had the phone on in 5 minutes
