    Slow, freezes, pretty much won’t work at all at this point and I’ve only had it for a week.. as the new iPhones come out the older ones can’t support the items when you transfer back.

    Bought an unlocked iPhone (no designated carrier) but was not unlocked. Realized this in early Dec (after return window closed) when trying to set up with Mint Mobile. Spent about 12 hours on the phone with Best Buy and Mint. Best Buy customer service rep in store admitted it was a mistake for it to be posted online and not my fault. I was able to receive full return amount on a Best Buy gift card to use at a later date. Went to the iPhone same day and bought a truly unlocked phone. Takeaway: when you purchase an "unlocked" phone, make sure it is truly unlocked ASAP as they only give you a very short time to return if issues.

    This phone is really nice. I thought it wouldn’t be as good as it is, but it still compares to my 13 pro. The camera is really nice. It’s got a really good camera quality. The phone is really really nice.

    The lady at the front desk sold me a refurbished phone without telling me until after I paid for it. My son’s phone doesn’t even work, they told me I had to have the receipt after I gave it to my son on Christmas and put services on it, it glitched so bad. It’s just sitting on my dresser

    Phone had 80 percent battery life. Best buy used and open box products are mostly a scam. They hardly have good deals and total membership is mostly useless.
