Apple iPhone SE 3rd Gen, 64GB, Midnight - Unlocked (Renewed)

I love the Apple IPhone SE because I love finger print recognition and the size!I wanted this new IPhone SE as a backup to my first as figured Apple would never be smart enough to produce an updated version of the model with fingerprint ID and of the same size.So, I decided to order a relatively new or refurbished SE.Wow! The new ones still in original packaging went so fast I couldn’t even finish my order!!!Then I knew I had to get either a refurbished or renewed SE.This was my 3rd attempt to get just such an IPhone SE, 2022, 3rd gen, 256gb, RED and fully unlocked!!!The first phone I received was the right color, the 2022 SE 3rd gen, in decent condition but was NOT UNLOCKED!!!! And Apple told me there was nothing they could do to help me!!! Back it went!The next IPhone SE 3rd gen, while unlocked, was WHITE not the RED I had ordered and had scratches everywhere! Back sides and the screen!It too went back!The third time was a charm!!!My latest IPhone SE 3rd gen, 256 gb is not only like NEW, but fully unlocked and RED! It has over 85% battery capacity and looks brand new and is RED!!! I was amazed at how pristine it was, so much so it has become my primary SE and my old one is my backup.My hope is that someday Apple will see how great the popularity of, and demand for, the SE is and they will upgrade its performance and reintroduce it to the market for those of us who like touch Fingerprint ID and like a compact phone that fits in your shirt or ski jacket pocket!!!I couldn’t be happier with my newly renewed SE phone or the seller!!!

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.

My wife's previous phone a 1st gen SE began having issues and it had been repaired a few times. She doesn't use it much so it's not like we needed to get anything expensive and new. This has done the job. After having it for a couple of months, I'm pleased with the purchase, the quality of the phone, and the parts or work that went into refurbishing it. The battery life has been exceptional, the wifi speed is great, there is no lag, the camera works great, and I've not had any regrets.All that said, you should not expect this to have the same performance as a new phone out of the box. It's overall what I expected, but neither was there anything that gave it a higher-than-expected rate. The battery performance remains high but the capacity has diminished a little more than I'd hoped. Probably an aftermarket rather than a OEM batter. Very satisfied but nothing to wow me either.

I admit that I had my skepticism about purchasing a refurbished phone. However, this particular product surprised me in a pleasant way! I have been using this phone for two months now, and it works better than my last iPhone S.E. (The 2020 version)! It’s a tidbit faster than my previous one, and the quality was almost brand new, sans for a slight blemish on the side. It’s almost as if it was a brand new phone in its entirely! Most importantly, buying this refurbished saved me $200+, especially since the original price for this phone and the GB was over $400+. I have my old durable phone case on this phone, as well as a screen protector, and it works without any issues! Would definitely buy again from the same company!

I got it 1 day before it said it was supposed to be delivered which is nice! Very minimal screen scratches hardly noticeable. Battery health was at 94% and everything works perfectly so far! Came with a screen protector which was nice. Looks good and functions well! Definitely happy I went with this purchase!

My experience with renewed Amazon products have been really good up to this iPhone purchase. This iPhone SE was listed as excellent condition, meaning battery is at least 80% and minimal scratches on body and screen. I received 78% which Apple lost as severely degraded battery and scuff body and low quality replaced screen that wasn’t even aligned currently. Very disappointed with this purchased. Returned to seller. The iPhone SE is a great value, this isn’t it.Pictures shows scuffs and screen misaligned. iPhone screens will always sit flush. This don’t be do.
