Agree on the statement on battery testing. I've recently noticed a significant decrease in my phone's battery life and it shows as having 95%. These may be good deals, but I would budget in the additional cost of a replacement battery before making a comparison to other buying options.old iPhone batteries test better than they perform in the real world. I wouldn't buy an iphone not refurbished by Apple. Apple actually refurbishes the iPhone (including providing a new battery, checking for wear & tear etc), Woot just checks if it works.
Woot's tagline is "Deals and Shenanigans" so you know which you got ? I would certainly not buy tech from a company with such a stupid tagline.I bought a "refurbished" iPhone 7 from Woot last year. I think to them "refurbished" meant they just wiped down the exterior of the device? It was not in good shape. I didn't expect it to be perfect, but it was really scuffed and the screen had some bad pixels. YMMV (your money may vary...a lot). Risky buy.
Technically you could buy a used phone, do nothing but clean it and re-sell it as refurbished.Almost all 'refurbished' phones on ebay, woot, Amazon, etc. are simply used. Apple is the only place that actually replaces the battery screen and body with new OEM Apple parts.
