read my update
UPDATE: so I was just notified I got 100 helpful thumbs up on this review and thought I should update it.... yeah, no. The phone lasted two months. It shut completely off one day, wouldn’t turn back on, nothing. Went to get it checked, and was told it was fried. I lost so many photos and notes because apparently it never uploaded to icloud. The only reason I’m giving it two stars was because I got the refund.
ORIGINAL: I was extremely skeptical, as I have always bought contracted new phones from att, but I wanted to get off their plan and I was just done with my old iPhone 5s which had completely given up on me. However, as a college student, I couldn’t afford to buy straight from Apple so I checked OfferUp and letgo, and when those seemed wayyy to sketchy I came to amazon and found this.
It took me a week to finally come to terms on buying a refurbished phone off the internet, but I am so glad I did! First off, the battery life is ridiculous; I charge my phone about every TWO days. Also, unlocked made it really easy to switch to metro pcs. I love the Live Photo’s! I love the size (I have small hands, but with a pop socket, it’s perfect)! I also love being able to take it out on the boat and not worry about it getting wet!
Love love love that I took the chance to buy it!
