This was not the phone that I asked to purchase, it's the size of a iPhone 6

It was dirty near the front speaker, it wasn’t worth 103.00$ at all ...

Looks new but has battery issues!

Needed to get a replacement SE for a family member. The phone was in excellent physical condition no scratches and looked fairly new. The issue is the battery. It loses charge within an hour or so and has to be kept plugged in constantly. The battery needs replacing according to the reading on the phone. I had to purchase a portable battery charger to keep it charged. Overall an ok value for price--just be aware of battery issues with these refurbished phones.

Lasted a while, but not perfect

It was a really good phone for the price it was at when I first got it, over time it developed white spots on the back plate. I love the features that it comes with.

It's a great phone

I've had my SE for years. I love it because it fits in my pocket. I don't read too much on it since the screen is small, but that's what laptops are for (in my opinion).
I wish they still made the 1st generation model because the price point was perfect. Nevertheless, it's a great phone.

Good phone

Had this phone for a while now and its pretty good except some problems. First of all the 4in screen is sometimes a little too small, and the storage will have problems from time to time. Otherwise most people have gotten used to it now.

Does not meet expectations

The pre-owned SE will arrive from a third party seller in a generic box with no padding and will freely move inside the box. Mine arrived with scratches all over the screen. It will come with a generic (Blackberry) charging block and a generic cable. However, best yet, it was not even Verizon network compatible. I took it to Best Buy to add it to our plan and was informed it won't work. Other SE's will, but mine didn't. Therefore I have to return it.

You Get What You Pay For!

I purchased this iPhone in hopes of it lasting at least 1 year. I was wrong. The battery started giving issues within 3 months and would lose its charge after less than an hour use. I was charging the phone 6-8 times a day. I brought it back to Best Buy to replace the battery and they said that would not work either. So I purchased a battery case that worked for 1 month. Buyer beware. You get what you pay for.

Phone kept rebooting itself randomly while using. Waste of time.
