I survived the refurbished iPhone lottery 😂
i’m not gonna lie, i went into this fully prepared to be bamboozled lol.the reviews were mostly good, but there were enough horror stories mixed in that i really had no idea what was going to show up at my door. refurbished phones seem to range from “basically brand new” to “this thing has clearly seen some things.”somehow, i ended up on the good side of the refurbished phone lottery.the iPhone 14 i received is honestly in near perfect condition. whoever owned this thing before me must have kept it protected because there are basically no scratches or noticeable wear. the only thing i can find is a tiny bit of discoloration around the outer edge of the camera area, and you really have to be looking for it.battery health came in at 85%, which i’m perfectly happy with. i was coming from an iPhone 12 Pro sitting at 75%, so 85% feels downright luxurious at this point lol.i’ve tested everything i normally use and the phone works exactly like it should. if you handed it to me without telling me it was refurbished, i genuinely wouldn’t know.if you live on your phone all day scrolling social media and battery life is everything to you, buying new might still make more sense. but if you’re like me and mostly use your phone for texting, email, looking things up, and normal everyday apps, this is more than enough phone.obviously refurbished is always going to be a little bit of a gamble, but this time Amazon dealt me a pretty good hand. i’m extremely happy with what i got and i’ll absolutely buy refurbished again.next time i might even get brave and try the higher-tier Renewed option. apparently this is who i am now. 😂Ver másVer menos
