Refurbished vs. used

Tested, cleaned and often with a warranty.

4 min read

Refurbished items are usually tested and repaired before resale. Used items are sold as they are.

Compare

  • Manufacturer refurbished: often the best warranty
  • Retailer refurbished: check what was tested
  • Used: cheapest, but usually no warranty
  • Ask about the return window and battery condition
