I din’t know that “refurbed” or pre-owned iPhone 5 is is legally sold by Apple to PH market, until I received this email about Apple Certified Refurbished Products are now sold in the country.
Certified by Apple, refurbished items are pre-owned Apple products that undergo a rigorous refurbishment process prior to being offered for sale. And since this is a legit item from Apple, it comes with a standard one-year limited warranty.
To make sure that the items you are buying are still on top condition, here are the refurbishment process being done by Apple.
- fully tested (including full burn-in testing)
- refurbished with replacement parts for any defective modules identified in testing
- thoroughly cleaned and inspected
- repackaged (including appropriate manuals, cables, new boxes, etc.)
- includes the operating software originally shipped with the unit and the custom software offered with that system
- given a new refurbished part number and serial number
- placed into a final QA inspection prior to being added to sellable refurbished stock
Refurbishment procedures follow the same basic technical guidelines as Apple’s Finished Goods testing procedures giving the product an assurance that the unit meets Apple’s premiere quality standards, and that its defective components have been replaced by genuine Apple components.
Refurbished Apple products are available online for specific products which can be found at http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/specialdeals. The iPhone 5 Certified Pre owned is exclusively available in Open line channels.
Currently, iPhone 5 is the first item that is being sold and is available in stores like MemoExpress and other multibrand stores in the Metro.
The Apple iPhone 5 Certified Pre-owned is NTC registered and comes with a full 1 year warranty valid in all Apple Service centers nationwide.
