SAMSUNG Galaxy S8 - 64GB - Arctic Silver - Verizon + GSM Factory Unlocked 4G LTE (Renewed)

I was very hesitant about purchasing a refurbished phone because you never know what you're going to get. I was pleasantly surprised when my phone came and it was in perfect condition. I was able to put my Verizon sim card in and was able to connect and go.The only reason I chose Mango (the seller) was because of their 100% feedback for the last 6 months.The phone is great and is better than I thought it could be.

SM-G950USM = SamsungG = Galaxy950 = S8U = Factory Unlocked (US Market)I was looking for an Android cell phone that wouldn't break the bank, have alot of the current features & specs, work in the US (AT&T, Verizon, etc Not Sprint), work in South Korea (Korea Telecom (KT), LG U+, SK, etc), & work in Japan (Softbank, AU, etc).Well after my research, we all know all Samsung Galaxy models have different sub-models for different markets/regions throughout the world. I am happy to report the phone I bought for Verizon (US), KT (S.Korea), & Softbank (Japan) works on all three cell phone providers using their SIM Cards.The condition from the Amazon retailer was in like new condition with no sign of use. The phone was a US Verizon S8 as it boots up with the Verizon logo at startup. I prefer the S8 over the S8+ due to easier one handed manipulation. It appears almost identical to the S9, so if you want to look the part, it is pretty up-to-date looking. The US market S8 has the snapdragon chip, unlike the International version I was looking at. They are really the same speed but name brand is important to me. Something I learned is most newer Samsungs that have the access to the SIM Card at the top of the cell phone using the pin can insert and use two SIM cards at the same time. The second place is for a second SIM or the external memory MicroSD Card.One word for what my specific needs were for this Samsung S8 purchase:Perfect!Fine print: I actually bought this phone and did not receive a free/courtacy product to provide an Amazon review.

This is not what I was expecting. I received a S8 in a Samsung box with accessories that have never been opened. There was a tiny tear in the box so someone must have opened it at some point. Otherwise, it is perfect. Not a scratch on it and the phone has been working as expected. I have bought other refurbished phones. This one has been the best.My previous phone was a Samsung Galaxy S4. It was well past time for an upgrade. This S8 is very nice. Quick, clear screen, good camera, and it feels very durable. I am happy with it!

Purchased this in 2018, haven't had any troubles. I guess if there are any drawbacks it's that the speakers don't go as loud as I'd like, the brightness doesn't go down very far, and the camera is pretty average, but those are very minor drawbacks for a very good phone. Especially since I don't treat it very well - I often drop it, and I let the battery go down to 5% way too often, but the battery life isn't too bad (and recording audio quality is unexpectedly not bad!), the USB-C charger charges pretty fast, and listening to music and stuff on headphones is always at a comfortable volume. I'm very satisfied with this purchase!

This replaced my old S8, so set up was a breeze. The phone was in perfect condition, works great, and was $50 less than the cost of a new screen.

Never had a problem so far with refurbished, Samsung or Amazon. I have never bought new and always had full cooperation with all parties involved. Never had a late item and never any problem with returns. This phone works, looks like brand new.

The phone is nice and came almost brand new. My phone percentage, however, went down pretty quickly after charging it to 100% but it may be because some of the apps I use are pretty heavy on battery usage.Edited: The battery life is actually pretty great. It wasn't the apps I was using but the constant updating the phone had to go through when I first bought the phone that caused the battery life to go down quickly.

So far so good with this Galaxy S8 phone. I was reluctant to purchase a refurbished phone, but it appears to be working like a brand new one. I personally have this model phone that I purchased from my carrier brand new.
