Category on the frontpage should include S&D instead of iphone 12s and 13, no?
Did anyone else receive this in a weirdly generic box marked “SmartDevice”? The box make it look like a bad knock off, but the device inside seems genuine… I haven’t turned it on yet though.
Refurbished items usually come in generic boxes. that may be what that vendor got for shipping purposes.
If you have any issues, reach out to Woot customer service.
I have purchased two of these refurbished phones this way in the past few months (newer SE, and a 12 mini), and both came as you’ve described; In a hokey, printed box that looks like it has a cheap headset or charger, rather than a phone. They were both genuine, and did fine for the activation process for me with physical SIM cards.
As a side note, one device did have a minor technical issue and had to be returned (the SE). It was otherwise physically perfect. But the 12 was about flawless, other than some light wear to the battery, which was as advertised. It’s in use today, and works wonderfully.
The refurbished game has changed a lot recently. At least these have standards for condition, battery life, warranty, and some sort of uniform packaging - even if it’s a little cheesy
