If you want to save money and think you may be in the market for a previously owned phone, it’s important to know that anyone can sell an old device and call it a “used phone” or a “pre-owned phone.” That’s why it’s important to understand the difference.
Refurbished phones: This typically refers to devices that have undergone some sort of repair. The previous user’s data has been wiped and the factory settings are typically restored, allowing you to set up the device the same way you would a brand-new phone.
Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) phones: This refers to all of the pre-owned smartphones Affinity sells. These devices have been inspected and are in full working order. “Certified Pre-Owned” is also potentially more accurate than “used” or “refurbished” — some smartphones are returned in full working order after only a few days. While these devices are definitely pre-owned and cannot be sold as new, some may not have been used at all by previous owners.
