    Your video helped me a lot today purchasing a second hand phone. Luckily it was almost brand new, and everything checked out. It was an iPhone 14 Pro so esim was a hassle to setup and check to see if my carrier was working. Another thing to add would be to check the sim lock status in the about section. If you're looking for an unlocked phone, or if it works with your carrier.

    If I buy a refurbished iPhone
    I ordered it to be the highest grade, excellent. It will be a model F or M. The battery will be full of water and the box will remain original or any box and the battery after use. What do you think about it and do you advise me to buy it?

    In this country, refurbished iPhones fall into two categories: several generations old and offered by non-Apple retailers or recent models ONLY available from Apple. And in these cases, they are only used to replace faulty units brought in to Apple stores for service. The Apple Refurbished website NEVER has iPhones for sale.

      If the iPhone has had a part replaced, that's only when you will see that setting/repair history! If it was repaired with a genuine part it will indicate so and if not it will show again
      NB:You can only see this if you iPhone was opened before for repair!
