What is a refurbished device?

A refurbished device is a product that has been returned for various reasons, such as order cancellations or defects.

When you choose a refurbished product from us, you're getting a device that functions like new, but at a lower price. Want to learn more about refurbished devices?

Why choose a refurbished device from us?

Choosing a refurbished device from us has several advantages, both for you and the environment. Let’s take a closer look at some key reasons why a refurbished Apple device can be a smart choice:

Cost savings

One of the most obvious benefits of choosing a refurbished device is the cost savings. Refurbished devices are offered at a lower price than their brand-new counterparts, meaning you can save significantly on your purchase without compromising on quality and performance.

High-quality standards

Refurbished products from Refreshed Apples undergo a rigorous refurbishment process where each device is carefully inspected, repaired (if necessary), and tested to ensure it meets Apple’s quality standards. This means you receive a device that functions just as well as a new model.

Environmentally friendly

By choosing a refurbished device, you contribute to a more sustainable planet. Reusing Apple devices reduces the demand for new products and helps decrease the amount of electronic waste.

Warranty and support

Refurbished devices from us often come with a warranty, which is not always the case with second-hand purchases. This warranty ensures that if anything goes wrong with the device, you’re covered.

Access to older models

Sometimes older Apple models are no longer available for purchase new. By opting for a refurbished version, you have the opportunity to buy a specific model that is no longer available in stores but still meets your needs.

Myth 1: Refurbished means the same as second-hand

Many people confuse refurbished with second-hand, but there is a significant difference between the two. Second-hand products are often sold as-is, without any guarantee or quality control. As mentioned earlier,our refurbished products undergo a rigorous refurbishment process where defective parts are replaced and the software is updated, so you receive a product that is free of user wear and functions like new.

Myth 2: Refurbished devices are less reliable

A common concern is that refurbished devices are less reliable than new ones. However, Refreshed Apples ensures that each refurbished device is thoroughly tested and certified, making them just as reliable as new devices.

Myth 3: Refurbished means more technical problems

Some consumers worry that refurbished devices will have more technical problems. This is, however, a misconception. Because refurbished devices are extensively tested, the likelihood of hidden defects is actually lower than with new products, where issues sometimes only emerge after they are in use.

Save with refurbished devices from Refreshed Apples

Choosing a refurbished device from us is not only financially attractive but also a choice that is good for the environment, offering the reliability and quality you expect from Apple products. Whether you’re looking for the latest technology or an older model, buying refurbished can be an excellent option that suits your needs and budget.
