Are you considering buying a refurbished phone but wondering, "Do refurbished phones come with original parts?" You're not alone. Understanding the parts used in refurbished phones can significantly influence your buying decision, affecting performance, longevity, and overall satisfaction.
In this comprehensive guide, we'll explain clearly what refurbished phones entail, the difference between original (OEM) and aftermarket parts, and how you can confidently verify the authenticity of your refurbished device. We'll also highlight some of our premium refurbished products at Zextons Refurbished, such as the iPhone 16 Pro Max, iPhone 16e, Samsung S21 Ultra, Samsung S24 Ultra, and Google Pixel Refurbished.
What Are Refurbished Phones?
Refurbished phones are pre-owned devices restored to like-new condition through rigorous testing, cleaning, repairs, and quality checks. They're an affordable, sustainable alternative to new phones, offering substantial savings without sacrificing quality or reliability.
OEM vs Aftermarket Parts: What's the Difference?
OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer)
OEM parts are components made directly by the phone’s original manufacturer, such as Apple, Samsung, or Google. These parts are identical to those originally installed in new phones.
Aftermarket Parts
Aftermarket parts are produced by third-party companies, not by the original manufacturer. High-quality aftermarket parts often match OEM standards but vary in quality depending on the supplier.
Do Refurbished Phones Always Have Original Parts?
Not always. However, at Zextons Refurbished, all our products come with fully original parts, carefully verified by our tech experts to ensure maximum reliability and performance.
How to Check if Your Refurbished Phone Has Original Parts
To ensure authenticity, follow these steps:
IMEI Verification: Use IMEI checker websites or manufacturer tools to verify originality.
Check the Screen: Look for differences in color, responsiveness, or brightness compared to original screens.
Battery Health Checks: For iPhones, navigate to Settings → Battery → Battery Health. A high-quality refurbished phone should show health above 85%.
Diagnostic Tools: Use apps like Phone Doctor Plus or manufacturer's diagnostic tools to verify internal components.
