The media could not be loaded. I was a bit hesitant to buy a renewed phone, but I'm so glad I went with this Samsung Galaxy S23+. It arrived in near-perfect condition—no scratches, dents, or signs of use. It looked and felt brand new straight out of the box. Performance-wise, it’s lightning-fast. The Snapdragon processor handles everything smoothly, whether I'm streaming, multitasking, or gaming. The display is crisp and vibrant, and the 512GB of storage gives me plenty of space for apps, photos, and videos without worrying about running out. Battery life has been solid so far—it lasts me a full day with normal use. The cameras are excellent, especially the night mode and zoom features. I'm also happy it came unlocked and worked right away with my carrier. Overall, this was a great purchase. High-end phone, great price, and it exceeded my expectations for a renewed device. Highly recommend if you're looking for value without sacrificing quality

My phone arrived undamaged, in perfect condition! I waited to do this review until I had it for a bit to make sure everything worked right. Well....IT'S AMAZING!!! The phone was not damaged in any way. It looked like a brand new phone, right out of the box! Not only that, but it functions flawlessly. I don't use all of the features (and it has a lot of them), mostly because I don't do social media stuff, or take many pictures. However, taking pictures is absolutely amazing! There are sooooo many options: like filters, colors, cropping, picture size, frame size, etc. There's just a ton of them. There is also Biometric features, which I appreciate. I had the S9+ and the fingerprint reader was on the back. If you use the fingerprint feature on this phone, make sure you set a passcode or pin as well. The fingerprint reader is on the screen. It shows as a pop-up. Of course you have to go through the fingerprint set-up first, and can choose more than one finger/thumb. My concern is that if the screen gets damaged where the reader is, the screen probably wouldn't be able to be able to read your print. It does NOT have an iris scanner. This IS a 5G phone, but it can connect to 4G and other networks as well. I believe there might have been a SIM card, but I honestly don't remember. I took the SIM from my other phone and put it in this one, so I didn't need it anyway. I use AT&T pre-paid, and it works fine. Right out of the box. I don't know if it's unlocked to a variety of different network or service providers. My service provider is AT&T, and the phone I got from this seller is also AT&T. My recommendation to anyone considering purchasing this phone, would be to contact the seller, first and ask about supported service providers. If you have AT&T, it's a total win! :) This phone charges super fast, and the battery life is fabulous. For my usage, anyway. You absolutely have to use a fast charging cable, or you'll ruin your phone. I believe it came with a USB cable, but I can't remember if the block was included. Either way, if you need to get a charging block, and/or cable, MAKE SURE they're fast charging!!! I thought the cable it came with was too short for my needs, so I bought a new one on Amazon that is specifically for the S23+...and phones like it. Another recommendation I have is to get an Otterbox. BEFORE you start using the phone. If you drop it, then a lot of money was spent for nothing. The camera lenses on the back protrude. I personally have the Otterbox Defender series, as the case itself prevents the camera lenses from touching any surface when you lay the phone down. It's the same if you lay it face down. The cover prevents the face from touching the surface of anything. I would seriously consider getting a high quality case with this phone, instead of a cheap knock-off. (Not all cases are created equal.) The phone is constructed of metal, not plastic, so it feels very well made. It's not a light phone, but not super heavy, either. At least to me. The phone doesn't come in an original box. At least mine didn't. It came with the phone and charging cable. I can't remember if it came with the little key that opens the SIM slot. If it doesn't, you'll need to get one. It also doesn't come with a manual. Also, unless you get the S23 Ultra, there is no stylus. If that's what you're looking for, the S23+ doesn't have that capability at all. You aren't able to get an S Pen with it, as the S Pen wouldn't function, even if you bought one and tried. I would also like to mention that it's super easy to transfer your data and contacts (and whatever else) to the S23+. I don't have any idea about transferring from an Apple product, though. Samsung is my go-to for phones. As for settings, there are too many to list. There is a specific one for the battery that I would like to mention, however. It makes it so your phone doesn't charge over 80% when fully charged, which is important. The phone won't overcharge that way and end up ruining your battery. As for call settings, there are a lot of those as well. For people that are hard of hearing, there are options for that. If, on the other hand, you'd like to protect your hearing and how loud the phone can get while listening to music or talking on it, you can limit the volume. It has features for the blind, but I don't know what that entails. It also has the car feature, but I don't know anything about that. I don't drive. I hope this review was helpful. :)

The phone works. No functionality issues. But the phone was advertised as excellent condition which the phone is far from as far as cosmetic. It's more like good condition. I didn't return because I needed the phone. The cameras have extensive wear on them And there are very deep scratches on the frame of the phone and a dent in the screen. I was shocked because YY Wireless I have bought 4 phones from them and had a ok experience. But this is just ridiculous I will not be buying anything from them any more and recommend you don't either. Get your condition right don't sent beat up phones advertised as excellent.

Good phone and no problem putting it on my consumer cellular account to replace a phone. Was described as excellent condition but there were scratches around the edges, the case I bought covers them is the only reason I didn't return it.

I was a little nervous about buying a refurbished phone, but I’m so glad I took the chance on this Galaxy S23 Plus. It showed up looking basically brand new—no scratches, no scuffs, nothing that even hints it’s been used before. The phone runs perfectly. It’s fast, smooth, and the screen is gorgeous. I’m especially loving the camera—photos look super sharp, and night shots are surprisingly good. Battery life easily gets me through a full day, even with heavy use. What I appreciated most was how easy it was to set up. It came unlocked and ready to go. I popped in my SIM card, and everything just worked. If you’re on the fence about going refurbished, I’d say go for it. You get the same premium experience without the premium price. I’d definitely buy refurbished again after this.

Was so happily surprised to open this phone! With it being refurbished, I was nervous about it having more scratches or little dings than hoping for but it was SPOTLESS. Looked brand new! Not even a fingerprint. It was easy to set up and I have been 100% pleased after using it for about a week now. I upgraded from my s21 galaxy after the battery had become damaged somehow? This has some cool AI features that have been fun to play around with. The battery life on this thing is awesome and so is the camera. I ordered the "unlocked" version and use verizon prepaid. Like I mentioned before, the setup was super straight forward.
