I have bought multiple of these. They are just like brand new, but much cheaper. They work great, and have had no problems with any of them.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very good quality for a used device????
Reviewed in the United States on December 26, 2023
I started using it a few days now. There are some scuff marks around the edges, but I have it in a case, so they are not visible, the screen and back are in pristine condition no scratches or scuff visible. I thought the description said unlocked, but it was locked to AT&T. Great news is that I was able to get the unlock code from att within minutes from their website, they have a page for unlocking, you only need to provide the imei and your email and their system sent the code within the same minute. Then the other hurdle was that the phone was stuck on android 12 and kept on saying there are no updates available. Turns out that you have to be an ATT customer to continue getting updates for an ATT device. The workaround is to manually flash the original firmware to the device which I was able to do. Now it has android 14 installed and working perfectly fine ????

I will leave my previous review elow this edit. I have changed my review to 1 star due to the fact that the phone hut 60 days and booted me off my network. T mobile is getting new right, like I should of done in the first place. Listen to your phone carrier, they aren't lying when they say this is a 50/50 shot at a good phone or a soon to be locked phone.

I ordered this device on a Sunday and it came by Wednesday. I was a little skeptical of buying a refurbished device but with the return policy I figured I couldn't really be at a loss if it worked well or just return it if not. I noticed they noted to expect 80% of the original battery health, very happy to say my excellent category device claims in the system that its battery is of 97% so this is really like a brand new phone. I do have t mobile and that is who this particular device through this seller is for but I had no issues with transferring data and transferring the sim. Almost gave up as the first time I did not succeed. Took sim out and played with it in the tray and then inserted it again and functional as it should. Granted I went from an s9 to the 21 but I really feel as if I just got a bigger and better screen as well as a way faster phone and not in a bad way just very relative to an s9. The finger scanner works great until you add a protector then it's not even worth the effort of cramming your finger in to the screen. All in all I am happy with my new to me phone and hope I don't have to come back and edit this review. Hope this helps of you're pondering this device. Very easy and cheap way for your upgrade

4.0 out of 5 stars Here's my experience with it after 15 months of usage
Reviewed in the United States on December 18, 2022
I've been using this for 15 months, and the device work flawlessly, as it is supposed to. I paid ~$520 for it in Sep/21, today at the time of this review it cost about half of what I paid for.

Pros:
- Already on Android 13;
- Very good display with decent size;
- CPU/RAM are as fast as it gets;
- Radios (5G/WiFi/Bluetooth/NFC) are really really Fast;
- Camera is top notch, on par with (or even better than) the latest iPhone, Pixel or Xiaomi;
- Samsung software is stable and well rounded off;
- Samsung DeX works better than I expected to;
- Very Fast USB-C 3.2 transfer speeds;

Neutral:
- Charging speeds could be better;
- No IR Blaster, what a shame, would be really useful;
- This one is Locked to T-Mobile (but can be used by it's subcarriers like MetroPCS aswell)

Cons:
- If you plan to unlock this device for anything other than T-Mobile, oh boy, you are in for a Ride. After 15 months using this phone, it's still jailed to them. Went thru many support agents, took it to T-Mobile stores, and they couldn't figure out how to unlock it. Had to pay $110 on those unlocking stores.

- On-screen fingerprint sensor SUCKS, even more if you use a screen protector. The back or the side are the correct place for fingerprint sensors.

- Battery is Ok-ish and can give you a full day (~10h) of battery, but you need to put almost everything to sleep, constantly close apps and have battery savings turned on 24/7. If you don't watch your usage, battery goes of in half a day (~5h) or less;

- No microSD slot, I have to delete or offload stuff about twice a month;

- No 3.5mm Jack, only take Bluetooth headphones;

- Samsung Pay dropped it most useful Magnetic Strip feature on this phone, which was being able to do Payments on Card machines that don't take NFC, and I bought this phone looking for this feature;

With that being said, if you need a good all-rounder, at current price, this is the way to go.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great condition trusted
Reviewed in the United States on April 18, 2024
After reading some (just some) of the reviews I was hesitant to buy it, I needed a another phone my old one unrepairable. I took a chance a ordered it, first the phone came in near perfect condition the battery as of now no issues charges great like new, the touch response everything on this phone feels and acts new. I would definitely buy another refurbished phone from them. Oh before I forget the delivery process was smooth and easy no hick ups or bumps along the way came when it said.

Sorry I don't have a picture of the phone as I'm using it to wrote this review

Pics are clear on this phone. Great size still fits in a pocket with no issues. Sound is clear, battery holds up during the day so less charging time. Fast shipping and like new phone they even placed a screen cover on the phone!!!
