Apple iPhone SE (2nd Generation), US Version, 64GB, White - Unlocked (Renewed)

This is the best phone I’ve ever owned, in my opinion. I’m passionate about smartphones, and I’ve loved previous high end Androids. This has a few key advantages over those devices. Simplicity. I used to compile my own Gentoo. I understand the value of FOSS. Still, I’ve come to decide that a personal communicator/ data assistant needs to be usable above all else. iOS is feature-complete, thoughtfully efficient, and free of redundancy beyond Android. The toddler’s interface i used on the iPod touch has matured into what it was meant to be Reliability. I’ve never had big problems with Android, but it can hiccup. On every phone I’ve used over more than a decade, I’ve occasionally experienced minor crashes, GPS gremlins, battery drains, cooling anomalies, and inscrutable major app discontinuations. In nearly a year of use, this old midrange iPhone has been utterly rock solid and i am confident Apple will not yank the rug out from under any of its core utilities. I do not manage the RAM on this phone or track battery usage. It’s just normal at all times. Durability. I do not use phone cases. The concept is a bit bizarre to me from a design standpoint. It’s not ideal, but i just try to be very careful with my phone. I’m good enough at it that, since smartphones emerged, it has been overall worth it for me despite eventually breaking two phones in that period. Still, I’m aging and I’ve dropped it. It’s clear that this phone is comprehensively designed; the materials and structure are unbelievably resistant to impact on hard surfaces. The damage to my phone is entirely cosmetic to the aluminum frame, and frankly makes me smile that it worked as intended in the face of adversity. Performance. My last phone had significantly more raw computing power than this phone. Still, this phone has a smoother UI and, in my opinion, marks a significant point of diminishing returns in mobile processing power. Clearly, little of the hardware is wasted. It is well balanced. Criticisms include: the ability to edit large blocks of text in iMessage has degraded since the last update. Moving the cursor has become more difficult. Battery life is mediocre. I can confidently get a day of normal use or a few hours of streaming video, and i have to charge it every night. My refurbished phone arrived with a gouge in the screen which i consider barely acceptable. The experience is great. I’ve lost interest in cracking software and customizing each UI element with unlimited freedom in favor of a workflow that aligns with my long-term goals. In that regard this phone excels. Lovely bit of hardware and software.

Thank you, the phone works GRREAT for my teen, she absolutely loves it! It is currently connected to wifi until I'm ready to connect it for service. Battery 95% WOOHOO!!! Phone looks GREAT, like NEW!!! If you're looking for a sign to purchase this phone ...THIS IS IT!!!

Very happy with the quality, condition and pricing of this phone. I bought it to replace my iPhone 8 because it was unable to handle the latest iOS updates that some of apps were requiring me to have.

Works really good and it was truly expected however the battery health was at 80

I was really happy when I saw the phone. It felt almost like a new iPhone. Came with a screen protector and not a single scratch in the back. It came in a regular box, without just a generic cable. The problema is that I struggled to get it started (the screen was acting weird) and the realized that they promised upper that 80% in battery life but the phone came 78%. That was really disappointing and I wouldn’t recommend it to be honest. I need to keep testing it to see if there is any more problems.

After I purchased this I read online that many people were unhappy with phone. I was relieved to receive one with no scratches and screen saver. Battery health was 94 percent. Very happy.

I am totally impressed with the quality of this phone, and the condition in which it arrived. I wanted a second phone for when I travel overseas and I can pop a SIM card into it, this is perfect. It is in like new condition, with 92% battery health remaining on it. I ordered a second one for my wife also, and that was also in excellent condition.

I-Phone SE 2nd Gen screen is great, shiny and the red back of the phone as well. The bottom where you plug in your phone does have a few scratches or chips. The phone works fast and quick after transfer from my non updating old iPhone. My personal complaint is that it says the battery is degraded and needs service but so did my old phone too! Picked this phone because it has the button on the bottom just like the old iPhone 8 same size and is still supported by Apple with IOS updates :)

Lo adquirí y fue mi dispositivo personal por mucho tiempo (lo recibí como nuevo, cero golpes o ratones, batería al 100% y aún con garantía. Completamente libre para cualquier compañía). Sigue teniendo Excelentes cámaras (para ser una sola la trasera) la calidad es buena aún y lo que me encanta es que la calidad de los videos es muy buena. Corre bien todas las apps y no tuve ningún problema con bugs o algo así. En el rendimiento 10/10. El único inconveniente es que al día de hoy la batería ya no es suficiente para un uso intensivo, si solo lo necesitas como dispositivo secundario está bien siempre y cuando lo recibas con más del 85% de batería. Porque estando más abajo y dándole un uso leve aún así tendrías que cargarlo por lo menos una vez en el día. Ahora lo uso como equipo secundario y no tengo ningún problema, lo uso para llamadas y redes sociales. En mi trabajo siempre hay donde cargarlo por eso es que no tengo problema con la batería. Pero si necesitas un equipo para estar fuera mucho tiempo, no te servirá de mucho, ya que como comento, la batería ya no rinde mucho con un uso regular-intensivo. Considera esto si lo recibes con un porcentaje menor al 85%.

Very satisfied with purchase. It came in a scary, off-brand box and the accessories aren't the original Apple ones, but the phone itself is perfect. Battery seems new, the screen is pristine and there's not a single scuff mark or scratch anywhere on the rest of the phone. Charger and cable seem to work fine. Very clean. Packaging could stand to be a little better; phone was loose in the box it came in, likely because the same box is used for many different refurb phones and this one is on the smaller side. It suffered no damage in transit, but your mileage may vary greatly there.

Phone says it’s locked to T-Mobile but mine is locked to dish boost a Mexican carrier with horrible customer service

Excellent, working great, brand new like, can't find any scratch

Love it! Actually this is my second one purchased...one for myself and one for my son.
