SAMSUNG Galaxy S22 128 GB Green (Renewed)

So I've always been skeptical of buying refurbished items but my sister did it so I kinda thought why not? I bought this from the seller Wireless Source back on the 17th and I and received it on the 20th. So it was delivered quickly. It came in a brown box with a printed stickt label detailing what's inside. Upon opening the box, the phone box was wrapped nicely in packaging. I was surprised the seller had placed the phone into another box but super glad they did because it was STROMING! After taking the phone out of the box, first impressions was DAMN! The color is gorgeous and slick, the seller already put on screen protector. It was pretty much brand new! It had no scratches, chips, missing piant, absolutely NOTHING. It came with a charger and the pin to open the sim card area. The phone did come in dead so I immediately placed it on the charger. After about an hour give or take (I went to Walmart so came back so now exactly sure when it was fully charged) it was charged, and I turned it on with no issues. I set up the photo manually which was super simple to do after I inserted my sim card. I didn't need a code or anything it just asked me if I wanted to use the Sims card or use a new one. Once I verified that I wanted to use the old Sims card, it immediately recognized it as AT&T and asked me to click okay to switch over. Done. All my apps are on and updated. Everything is set to my liking and I've had no issues at all. I've had the phone for 2 full days now and the phone actually automatically adjust the brighteness if you are outside or in a dim environment. Just be careful because you have to readjust the brightness whenever you like it after. The phone battery life is pretty darn good. I'm currently at 45% and it's 5:07pm where I'm located. The phone has been used actively since 8am off charger. The camera quality is fantastic. Volume and sound is phenomenal. There is lots of storage and I have plenty more of exploring to do on the phone. I have let the phone die and had no problems with charging and turning back on. It will let you add a fingerprint for protection later one which I thought was cool because I didn't have to set thay up right away. Samsung is just the best for that. I bought a case to match the phone as well. I absolutely love the phone so far.The only downside, in my opinion, is that I can not add an SD card. Other then that, it's an exceptional phone. I will definitely update later if anything starts happening or I find cool stuff regarding the phone but so far so good!

Phone came on time, was in perfect condition, no problems. Was completely unlocked and I was able to use it with Straight Talk. Easy set up using the switch app. Upgraded from a Galaxy A50 I used for 5 years, and I love it. Great camera and lots of memory.

For the most part the phone is okay. Only defect is a 1 inch indentation on screen. Only visible when screen is black. Isn’t noticeable when screen is on. The reason for 2 stars is when l downloaded a malware app and scanned phone a malware threat came up. I factory reset phone and threat is gone. This is first time ever buying a refurbished phone to save money. I have only used phone for couple days. Very skeptical about using phone because of the malware problem even with the factory reset. Well this is a follow up report. Had to do a second factory reset. I regret buying it. It’s super slow now. I don’t use it anymore.

I did a lot of research for a replacement to my Samsung s8, and I'm pleased with the product itself. I wanted something with a good battery, good optics, plenty of storage and processing, and of course newer than my old phone so that the operating system was up to date. I'm happy with Samsung in general and this model in particular.As to this specific phone, it works great. And I know it's a used phone. But according to the listing, it was in "'excellent condition'. The screen and body show no signs of cosmetic damage visible from 12 inches away." However, the sides were visibly scuffed. I can cover it with a phone case, but it was still very surprising. I have often bought renewed phones through Amazon, but never had an experience like this. I think that either more quality control over what passes as "excellent" needs to be exerted, or the definition of "excellent" needs to change.

I purchased this phone to replace my Samsung S9 phone. I've owned the S9 for about 7 years and really was content with the phone. However, it does not support 5G so it was time to replace it. But rather than spend $1000+ dollars for an upgrade I thought I would try ordered a "renew" or refurbished phone outright and keep myself open for the best mobile service. Plus, I am now a senior and may be entitled to some additional discounts. Well to make a long story short the S22 is great works very similar to my S9. I purchased the one in excellent condition and it came in brand new condition. Pretty easy to setup and copy my information from my old phone to my new phone. Also this is a great option if you want to keep your old phone. I am now ordering one for my wife (1 week later) to make sure we have the same units. I am very pleased with the purchase, the phone and the cost!

Great refurbished phone

The good:The phone looks like new. It works smoothly, so far. All upgrades and the transfer from my old phone were flawless.The bad:It won't charge. The included charger says it's going to take over 3 hours to charge from 70%. The fast charger I already have will take an hour and a half to get from 70% (Update: After 15 min in the fast charger the estimated time went to 3 hours and it only went up 3%). For comparison my busted-up S20 can charge up from 50% in an hourThe ugly:If I can't get fast charging I'm returning it.
