I’ve been using this refurbished iPhone 8 from Amazon for the past 4 years. I wanted another iPhone 6 but couldn’t find any. The 8 is the newest one I’ve used, there are way too many phones and getting a new one every year is ridiculous
Yeah it does become ridiculous. I will say though that you’re in for a big upgrade whenever you decide to. The removal of the home button and addition of FaceID was pretty much what made me switch to iPhone full time.
@@AlexVassiosOfficial That’s just the thing, I like the home button lol but yeah, I just hope this one goes as long as possible. Probably get the newest version once this one quits.
This is this guy called the plugtech or tech plug something like that. But he buys refurbished iPhones in bulk and test them for quality with his own team and resells them at pretty decent prices. I used to work for Amazon and lemme just say no quality control.
I have bought an amazon renewed iPhone 11 before. I am upgrading to a 14 from Amazon renewed soon and was wondering if any sellers sell fake iPhones and what to look out for!
Same here with a iphone 11 pro max in 2022 and they tried to sell me but i force them to refund me. But the screen colors were off and the battery was not a apple battery and it suppose to be refubursh
Sounds to me like this was either Amazon or the refurbisher sending out the wrong product. You ordered a good, sounds like they sent out an acceptable, or maybe even this was a return that got accidentally sent to you. IOW I suspect this was a shipping error and not a deliberate scam. But you are right, buying refurbished is kind of Hit or Miss. Amazon usually gives you 90 days to return or exchange it, which is 3 times longer than back market and others. I've gotten several dogs from refurbishers which I had to send back. OTOH I just bought a 13 mini from back market and it is undistinguishable from a new product. No signs of use whatsoever, 100% battery health 512Gb, $500. Hit or miss...
Well come with a category like a premium ,excellent an so on ... So when you order and make sure which one you choosing should be exactly the way you choose , I bought alots renewed saved hundreds of dollars and all of them came out great, but I never choose any items electronics or not less than the Excellent
so i was in the market to buy a renewed iphone 14 as a gift from amazon but im scared this will happen , do you have any other recommendations on how to get it in really good condition?
The good news with this route is that you have assurance of a good return. Otherwise I’ve had luck being picky with eBay listings or finding one locally on Marketplace.
Was this just an iPhone 13 mini (renewed) excellent? Or a iPhone 13 mini (renewed PREMIUM) off Amazon? I was just curious because I just ordered a renewed premium iPhone 13 mini and it’s supposed to arrive tomorrow. I have the choice to keep my 15 pro max or go back to a smaller 13 mini, as my return window from Apple is only till the 28th of March… so I don’t have long to decide which one to keep.
I got a regular premium renewed (not excellent) and it turned out to be terrible condition so I sent it back. Ended up sticking with my 15 Pro because I was getting sick with the PWM on the 13 Mini. I like the 15 Pro quite a lot. Not as small as the mini, but the little extras make the trade off worth it.
Why amazon have so many mini and Apple refurbished don’t have any on their website? And if they have it’s only one, only black and only 512gb? Why Apple doesn’t want people to have mini? 😢

Yeah I’ve purchased enough over the years to realize that quality is all over the place.

Honestly buy from amazon renewed store not a third party seller

I bought a good condition iphone 13 mini. I literally got a new phone with 100% battery. I couldn't believe it
i got a phone from them once and i had poo on it ( i think) and it was still broken with a cracked screen and back. I had to get it returned, very sad
🤮
Man thats a shitty situation, glad you got that deserved refund.
so i was in the market to buy a renewed iphone 14 as a gift from amazon but im scared this will happen , do you have any other recommendations on how to get it in really good condition?

I bought a 14 pro from Amazon renewed you'd think I got it brand new phone straight from apple
Was this just an iPhone 13 mini (renewed) excellent? Or a iPhone 13 mini (renewed PREMIUM) off Amazon?

Hey, how did this go?
@@relaxationchannel6247 one of them had an lcd screen and it was not good. The replacement I got was good so it’s 50/50
I’m in the same position. Bought the 15 Pro Max and I think its just too much
I got a regular premium renewed (not excellent) and it turned out to be terrible condition so I sent it back. Ended up sticking with my 15 Pro because I was getting sick with the PWM on the 13 Mini.

@@AlexVassiosOfficial which other iPhones have the PWM? Does the 12 Pro have it? Thats my old phone.
Are u linus’s brother
Haha great question. But no
He’s Minus
Yeah I’d say to keep an eye out for that restocking fee if there is one
Yes definitely watch out for that. Make sure there are free returns. But the refunds can take a month or two to come back also.
Was it advertised as acceptable or excellent
I believe it was advertised as good because it was the only one they had left in that variant.
@@AlexVassiosOfficial i mean yeah if its in good condition I would say it isnt that good I ordered excellent and its basically new
@@AlexVassiosOfficiali just picked up a good phone 13 mini 256gb for $300 and it came brand new. I'm still suspicious weeks later

Your voice exactly sounds like Adam Enfroy's lol
That’s why Amazon refurbished sucks Apple is much better to get it from bro
yes but apple sell them for a shit price you might aswell get a new one with their ptice3
Can't find the mini on Apple's refurbished site.
