What's the difference between a used iPhone and a refurbished iPhone?
In both cases, the two devices are pre-owned or “second-hand” but that’s where the similarities end. A refurbished iPhone has been tuned up and brought back to perfect working condition in a factory before being sold on Gadgets Hive. (or somewhere else). So basically a refurbished phone has the double advantage of being both a cheap smartphone as well as also having a professional refurbisher guarantee its excellent quality.
On Gadgets Hive, can you only find refurbished tablets and smartphones?
No. This is a pretty common misconception about Gadgets Hive that we want to clear up. A lot of people think that refurbished electronics are limited to phones and tablets and computers & laptops when in fact everything (or almost everything) can be refurbished (from gaming consoles to cameras, headphones, smart watches and a whole lot more). So make sure to stick around and browse the website — you might find a great deal on something unexpected.
How do I know that my refurbished tablet isn't going to conk out after 1 month?
