What is the difference between the iphone refurb and the normal iphone 3g?
Posted by Iphone Virus Removal on Monday Apr 6, 2009 Under iphone 3gI am thinking about buying an iphone, but i am not sure which to get; the iphone 3g refurb, or the normal iphone 3g. Can anyone help me?
The refurbished iPhone is just an iphone that some other person had shipped in because of difficulties…..so apple ships that person a new one, keeps the broken one, fixes the broken one and then resells it for a fraction of the price. I think they put a new body on it if its damaged but not sure.

Most refurbs are a good alternative to the brand-new phone and extremely reliable. However, as could be expected, it is far more likely for a refurbished phone to fail or break than a brand-new one, and sometimes there is strange data on the refurbished phone.

The refurb is not a new model/version of the iPhone you know. It is a used one that has been fixed up to be "like-new" & then resold at a discounted price. It is exactly like the new 3G.

A refurbished iPhone is an iPhone that may have been sent in for repair and then repair by a technician. All iPhones that are refurbished by Apple undergo the same testing procedure that Apple uses for brand new iPhones.
Some say they are unreliable, but you have to realise that any electronic component can have issues whether it is refurbished or brand new out of the box.
