  • Going over the top 5 things you need to check before buying a used iPhone in 2022 and 2023. Used iPhones can be a great option if you're on a tight budget, but here are some things to pay attention to when buying used on eBay for example.
    We're going to go through 5 main issues iPhones can have after they have been used for some time, including battery, display, Face ID, and more.
    After watching this video, you'll hopefully be able to determine if the iPhone you're trying to get for yourself is working properly if there are any flaws you need to know about, and should you get it or maybe take a look at a different one instead.

    Important to notice: I just bought a fake iphone. At first I saw it as a bargain. 550 euro for an unsealed 14 pro max. Came in the 'original' box. Checked the serial number. Appeared to even have half a year of warranty. So happy to see the deal, I rushed to buy it, just to find out a day later at an apple store that it was a fake. Guys, if a deal sounds too good to be true, it probably is a trap.

    Finally a video where True tone is mentioned as something to check for when buying a used iphone. I only found out about this after i bought a used iphone a few years ago and had to sell it at a lose due to the screen being replaced and not original but lesson learned.

    I never used iCloud so after my first iPhone setup (iphone4) I went and logged out of it. And just skipped it ever since. My 12 pro max I went and made suer find my app was off, and went to the erase whole phone. And removed SIM card. Can the person I’m giving it to just pop in their SIM card and since it’s on the same network just transfer the data from old to new? I can’t get answers from Verizon .

    4. Apple iPhone 11 and up tells you if the screen isn't genuine.
    Go to Settings -> General -> About -> You can see notification if the screen can't be verify to be genuine.
    5. Battery can be problem, but not too bad, because Apple can change that for you around 100€ (atleast where I live).
