SAMSUNG Galaxy A54 5G | 128GB | 6.4” Fluid Display Screen | Hi Res Camera | 5,000 mAH huge Battery| US Version | 2023 Model | Unlocked Android Smartphone | Awesome Black (Renewed)

I got this phone in the beginning of june. I just started using it as my daily driver about a week ago. When I ordered the phone, i thought that it was going to be full of physical imperfections and scratches and nicks, and this phone didn't have any of that. It seems to work pretty well for the most part. It slows down and stutters a bit when I put too much of a demand on it. But I guess that's to be expected for a phone that isn't a flagship. The seller was great. Shipped my phone quickly.And I think I got it before the estimated delivery day. Overall good experience.

I've been wanting to upgrade from an inexpensive and slow 4G Motorola phone with 32GB to something 5G, with 128GB, from a name brand, and much faster. I'd narrowed down my search to a Pixel 6a/7a or this Samsung A54. This A54 model seemed like it was better quality and with fewer complaints, so the next task was finding something I could afford. Which meant shopping for a refurbished phone.Of course, I was leery about buying a used phone, and whether it would be scratched up, locked, or some other problem might make me regret buying a refurbished product. I was also worried that the phone I received would not run on Visible, a Verizon subsidiary, since many A54s phones seem to be GMA and only run on T-Mobile/AT&T. This particular phone from this seller was one of the lower-priced refurbs -- about half the cost of a new Samsung A54, and the seller had good customer reviews, so I decided to take a chance and order it.Now that I've activated this phone and set it up to my liking, I can say that I'm thrilled with the purchase. The phone arrived fully functional, just 48 hours after I ordered it. It was unlocked as promised, and I had no trouble activating it on Visible. The condition of the phone is pristine--not a single scratch or ding. It came in a white, Amazon Renewed box, as expected, and a USB cable and charger were included. I am 100% satisfied with this purchase so far, and look forward to using my new and much faster 5G Samsung phone!

Nothing but regret over this purchase. I've had the phone for 12 days. It arrived in a basic box with a charger and cable, but no tool for opening the SIM card slot. Initially, the phone powered up okay, and I was able to do smart switch fine and reconnect all of my things. But I noticed that the charging cable wasn't saying securely in the phone. Cables that works perfectly fine with my old phone, we're just slipping out of this.I know the charging port could just be dirty, so I did take a look at that and try to clean it out as best as I could, although obvious dust and dirt that was built up in the charging port from day one should have been a red flag. and that helped a little bit, but it still didn't have the same hold that my old phone did.Next up were the restarts. Sometimes the phone will just randomly restart on its own, out of nowhere, with decent battery life. It happened about four times in the space of the 12 days I've had the phone.A couple of times, the phone would sketch out, and either the screen or the apps would become unresponsive to my touch, which force me to have to remove the phone.The final straw, and the reason I have just initiated a return on this thing is because today, after I left the house for work I noticed the display was very dark - - I know it was dark, because I had said the display that way, but I wasn't able to pull the menu down to adjust the brightness at all. I thought, no big deal I'll just reboot it again (although to be Frank, 12 days in, this is already a lot). I could bring up the menu for powering off the phone and rebooting, but nothing would happen when I touch the buttons. I had to basically press down or hold the button really hard to get it to respond, and eventually it did, but even that some 5 minutes. Then when the phone turns back on, I couldn't unlock it. It would recognize the initial swipe to allow me to put my password in, but then wouldn't respond to any touches. That's the state it's in right now. I'm hoping that I'll be able to still get my information off of it or wipe it before I send it back because this is absolutely ridiculous.This is my first time purchasing a refurbished phone, and I can tell you that it's definitely going to be my last. It's not worth the gamble.

Should be 4.5 stars...great phone and perfect screen. Only some scrapes on the plastic bezel. Recommend.

Muy bueno este teléfono me encanta

This phone is basically brand new.

Llego excelente. Llego en una caja genérica pero todo completo y el celular funciona correctamente.

Bought 4 from different sellers... One was perfect condition and unlocked, other 3 were scratched and locked to Verizon and T-Mobile... Not good odds for actually getting what you order 🤷‍♀️
