Apple iPhone SE 3rd Gen, 64GB, Midnight - AT&T (Renewed Premium)

Bought this phone recently as a spare device for a vacation trip - was able to add an eSim easily, and take lots of beautiful photos with the camera. The phone arrived in great condition (minor to no visible defects, very light/hardly noticeable micro-scratches on the glass surface) and has worked flawlessly so far. The shipping was fast and the phone came well packaged, with an extra off-brand charger included. Very happy with this purchase! My one complaint is that the battery seems to drop fairly rapidly when actually in use (came with about 86% battery life status) - its possible this could be mitigated by looking into settings/app usage/services/etc, or usage with external portable battery pack, though inherently it also just makes sense for a used phone battery quality to degrade over time also. While I appreciated this seller and product purchase experience, always be mindful that buying devices second-hand can be a bit of a toss-up. This is my second attempt to purchase a used iphone through amazon - the first time, the device screen display was glitchy, and even with free returns it takes time and resources to print out the shipping labels/repackage the product/find a drop-off point, and sellers do not refund initial product shipping fees. If you have an event or usage date in mind in the near-term, keep in mind that its also hard to understand the reliability of a device prior to actually receiving and using it for a bit. Truthfully if the iPhone SE was still available for retail purchase I likely would have strongly considered simply buying one new for ease of mind and to know I'm getting the best quality/battery/etc, but given the performance so far, and price of this product at time of purchase compared to the next lowest cost option from apple, for about 1/3 the cost I think this was a very solid purchase.

iPhone SE 3rd Generation 64 midnight black - excellent condition. I’m very happy with this purchase. The phone had hardly any known blemishes and the battery capacity is at 89% which is pretty decent. I’ll end up getting a new battery down the line as the phone ages. This replaced a very outdated iPhone 8 which couldn’t receive any updates past ios16. The SE 3rd generation was able to download ios26 with ease. Rapid fast shipping and excellent product. It even cable with a cube and a lightning connector.

I had reservations about ordering a "renewed" product, but it is exactly what I wanted and worked great! I have had it for about 2 months now and the battery never dies on me and having the extra memory has allowed me to use more apps, which it seems every commercial establishment wants you to have these days.

Only reserving one star to see how it works. Had 1st generation since 2022 (and paid over $400 for it.) and was working well until it was stolen this year. No idea why Apple can't have two lines of Iphones. The AppleSE is perfect size for me. I can use desktop or ipad if i wanted larger. This almost looks new ... Battery says 85%. I'm very pleased. Came w a new charger and cord. No special shipping and it arrived in two days. Read apple would be supporting for another few years so win win on the price and quality.

**Real review I would 100% recommend this phone to anyone who’s looking for a new iPhone that has great software and that’s looking for something long term or even temporarily! I brought this phone in a hurry due to my old iPhone 12 breaking and giving out. The phone I brought came in excellent condition. I cant even tell if there’s any tiny scratches or not but I’m happy with it! For a refurbished iPhone in excellent shape and under $200, I’m all ears and will be purchasing again!

So far so good honest retailer described as it is, performance as to condition, no physical blemishes works as it should on Mint Network, great reception and quality of sound, was doubtful before ordering, now real satisfied and pleased with seller, close to brand new condition!!!

Works well for most of its functions. My only problem is the speaker volume is much reduced for some reason even with volume turned up. Also when I listen to an audio clip the sound diminishes and becomes almost unintelligible. Since I don’t use the phone heavily using those functions I noticed this problem after warranty expired. MAKE SURE ALL FUNCTIONALITY IS CHECKED OVER BEFORE YOUR WARRANTY RUNS OUT.

I suggest that you wait to turn on the Stolen Device Protection option until you know whether or not your renewed premium phone is actually unlocked like you believe it is. Because that's how I found out that this one came to me locked. (See the product description? It says "unlocked". But it isn't.) So it's been a looooooong afternoon in chat with my carrier's agents while they work on getting around it, and it's still not accomplished after 4 hours. I really don't want to send this back -- no scratches, 100% battery charge, good price, repaired-not-new, just what I wanted. Transferring data from my iPhone 8 was incredibly easy since I can read. I don't even mind that the package was delayed, probably by the terrible winter storm. But I DO mind that it's locked.
