    The phone is fine. Not sure there's anything I can say about the iPhone 7 that would be new to anyone However, this phone being advertised as unlocked is the biggest issue. It's not unlocked. It only works with certain carriers. Not Sprint or Verizon. They should not advertise it in the title as being unlocked when it's not.

    No issues with this device at all (was pre-owned); I was hesitant to purchase as I really wanted the Apple extended warranty, which was not available on this preowned device, but as it turned out I didn't need it.

    I got pre-owned thinking it will still give me a year in warranty, but I was told during pickup that the warranty is only for 6 months and only for parts. Haven't had any issues yet. But this is being used sparingly. The phone absolutely needs a cover, feels real fragile and slippery.

    I like that they had to his refurbished however the camera lense for the rear had some black spots on it. Also, iPhone 7’s don’t have a ear phone jack.

    The only reason I didn’t give it a 5 star review was because it didn’t come in it’s original apple box , it didn’t come with apple earphones and the charger was an off brand meaning it wasn’t apple.

    This phone is a great entry-level I-phone purchase for my teen. The re-furbished phone looks new and is easy to use. Battery life is great and needs little recharging during the week. Uses a lightning cord.

    I received the item earlier than expected, which was a great shock. The phone is excellent and working just fine. I would recommend Best Buy to everyone I know. Thank you. I’m a satisfied customer.

    Buyer Beware!

    Buyer Beware! This is the 2nd "pre-owned" Apple Iphone 7 I have tried to buy from Best Buy online and have ended up returning both of them. The first one I received had a battery with only 80% health and battery life was short. the 2nd device would not connect to Cellular data - it was always roaming or searching. I did visit the ATT store and they suggesting resetting the phone to factory default. That helped for awhile but the phone kept having a similar problem, so we ended up having to return that one too. Because these are electronic devices, Best Buy would only give us in-store credit, so we ended up having to fork over extra money to get a NEW phone. I would NOT RECOMMEND trusting to buy a pre-owned device from Best Buy online. In my opinion, you are asking for trouble. Save yourself the hassle and learn from my mishaps!

    Item as described with very little signs of wear. I think I got a good deal. I would hesitate to buy again should the need arise. Shipping was fast and pick up was easy.

    I purchased this for my kid because iPhones just last longer. The item came in perfect condition. Not a single scratch or mark. It works perfectly. Honestly could ask for a better used phone.

    Review of iPhone 7

    Package arrived timely. I was extremely underwhelmed with the actual packaging - a flimsy generic box inside a thinly padded envelope; not a sturdy cardboard box. I think the phone should have been wrapped better to ensure no damage - more substantial bubble wrap envelope. The phone overall serves its purpose. The battery performance is at 86% (which is something I wish you could know at purchase). Volume is not great....you must use speaker or use it in car.
