Apple iPhone 13 Pro Max, 1TB, Graphite - Unlocked (Renewed)

I wasn't really gonna write a review on this but I have to! I am amazed at how I got my phone in the condition it came in . it said excellent condition , and it really is . I am really picky with my electronics , always wanting them to look perfect , no scratches or bumps . and this did not fail me. no scratches at all on the screen and maybe some small ones in the back that you really had to look for but with a case on its not an issue. cameras were also not scratched and everything works, from the cameras , to the speakers and the whole software of the phone is good and up to date. the only flaw, was how it had 88% battery life. on the description it says that having up to 80% will still land it on excellent condition , so I can't knock a point because I knew, and getting a new battery will be about 90$ according to apple. I did talk to one of my buddies that works on phones and said he doesn't recommend me to replace the battery as it still is healthy. and I have been using it for a week and it really doesn't need one. I had an iPhone 12 and I used it almost every day at work playing videos on the background , and it would last me about 7-8 hours and then id have to charge it considering my work days are 10 hours. with this phone , I literally come out of work with about 40-65% battery still. all it all , this is great , it was one of the best prices I could find for a used iPhone 13 Pro Max and im am actually really satisfied with my purchase . I also stayed with the 13 instead of the newer ones because it has a SIM card tray still and because it does not have the dynamic island that the new ones have as I think it takes up more screen when watching videos compared to the small notch on the 13. I wish it did have the stabilizing camera feature for when I walk my dog and want to take stable videos , but I don't mind that . this phone when it came out was beloved by every one and I think its still a great buy for 2024.

Let me start off by saying the shipper (fed ex) made getting this phone an actual nightmare. BUT once I got it I was very happy to see they had replaced the battery. Fresh battery, factory reset, and unlocked. It came with a charger, as well as a simple case A few very minimal scratches in the body which should be expected with a used phone. Customer service was very kind and professional even when I was very frustrated with the shipper. I would buy again. And I’d recommend you do too.

TOOK A CHANCE BUYING A REFURBISHED IPHONE 13 PROMAX. IONLY HAVE EXCELLENT THINGS TO SAY ABOUT IT. I PICKED EXCELLENT CONDITION, FOR A LITTLE MORE MONEY AND WHEN I OPENED UP THE BOX IT LOOKE BRAND NEW FROM APPLE. WAS VERY IMPRESSED BLEW ME AWAY!!! BEAUTIFUL COLOR LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THE PHONE THE COMPANY WAS EASY TO DEAL WITH AND YOU CAN GET A MOVILE WARRANTY ON THE WEBSITE IF YOU DONT TRUST IT MIGHT BREAK DOWN LIKE IT FEARED SO INSTEAD OF A 3 YEAR WARRENTY I PAY $7.58 MONTHLY ! IF ANYTHING HAPPENS YOU PAY A SMALL COPAY AND YOU CAN TAKE IT ANYWHERE TO BE FIXED!!!!CALL THEM AND SPEAK TO THEM FOR ALL DETAILS YOU WILL NEED A PIECE OF PAPER TO WRITE DOWN INFORMATION/ TRUST ME SO WORTH IT⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️IN FEBUARY 2027 IAM BUYING THE 16 or17 PROMAX PROBABLY FROM SAME SELLER OR DIFFERENT SELLER!!!!! PRODUCTS ARE SO EXCELLENT REFURBISHED!!!!! I DEFINITELY GIVE THIS A FIVE STAR REVIEW ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

First time I ever bought a refurbished iPhone and it was excellent. Easy to buy, 2/3 the price, and high quality. I did not buy the premium renewal (no scratches and battery 90%+ health) but the standard which Amazon said wound be scratches you can’t see from arm’s length and battery health 80%+. The condition was near perfect. No noticeable scrapes at any distance. Looked good as new. Battery health 83%. The config was easy. I had my existing phone next to it and used the Apple method to copy everything phone to phone. Took 30 minutes but everything copied over including photos, messages, apps, settings, logins, Safari bookmarks, wallpaper, passwords, WIFI SSIDs/passwords, and even contact photos. Only logins I had to re-do were TFA and Authenticator, which is to be expected. I am using this new phone on my sailboat for WIFI only. Instead of spending $6000 for data displays on my mast I bought the iPhone 13 Pro Max for $450 plus a $50 bracket. It’s an unlocked iPhone (no carrier or SIM card) and by simply skipping the option to insert a SIM or use an eSIM, it configured and put me on WIFI automatically. All my apps and subscriptions work fine on the new phone plus old. Subscriptions are AppleID or user-login based not device based so you can reuse all your premium apps. AppStore also worked as well as getting iMessage on both phones now even without the cell services (since it’s data). So, very cost effective solution! I looked into doing this with my carrier (Verizon) but you had to activate a new line which I didn’t want to do. Plus their selection of used phones was not as good as Amazon and the new phones are much more expensive if you are not trading in. So this is a great Amazon service!

I’m very happy with these iPhones! They arrived in great condition and look amazing. The phone works smoothly, the screen is beautiful, and the battery life has been great so far. Everything feels fast and high quality. I’m very satisfied with my purchase and would definitely recommend them!

Good

He adquirido este iPhone 13 Pro Max de 128GB en color plata a través del programa Renewed de Amazon y la experiencia ha sido fantástica. El dispositivo llegó en unas condiciones estéticas impecables, prácticamente indistinguible de uno completamente nuevo, y su rendimiento en el día a día demuestra por qué sigue siendo uno de los teléfonos más potentes y equilibrados del mercado.Puntos fuertes:Condición Renewed excelente: El terminal venía sin un solo rasguño visible en la pantalla ni en los bordes de acero inoxidable, con una salud de batería magnífica y un funcionamiento general del 100%.Pantalla ProMotion fluida: La pantalla Super Retina XDR de 6.7 pulgadas con tasa de refresco adaptativa de 120Hz es una delicia visual; los desplazamientos, las animaciones y los juegos se ven con una suavidad brutal.Autonomía de batería imbatible: Es sin duda uno de los reyes de la batería; aguanta jornadas intensas de uso exigente (redes, navegación, GPS y vídeos) llegando al final del día con carga de sobra sin problemas.Sistema de cámaras profesional: El módulo de tres cámaras toma fotografías nítidas con colores fieles en cualquier condición de luz. El modo Cine para grabar vídeo y el modo Macro añaden un nivel creativo espectacular.Rendimiento bruto y conectividad: El chip A15 Bionic gestiona la multitarea y las aplicaciones más pesadas de forma instantánea, y la conectividad 5G ofrece velocidades de navegación ultrarrápidas.Al ser una versión totalmente desbloqueada (Unlocked), bastó con introducir mi tarjeta SIM para que reconociera la red de inmediato. Es una compra inteligente que ofrece un teléfono de gama alta premium a una fracción de su precio original. ¡Cinco estrellas totalmente recomendadas!

Aside from the phone being nearly perfect, no visible signs of wear and tear, no delays (after updating and restoring), unlocked, and the battery is good (84% health). (lengthy story and complaint incoming) However, (and hopefully this helps someone else who faces the same problem) I’m giving it 3 stars because I had the worse experience setting it up. Not to mention the charging cable that came with it didn’t work. Anyway, to the pressing issue here I did what I would normally do when setting up a new iPhone and followed the prompts to transfer my data through the cloud onto this device. However, due to the phone’s software being completely outdated (ios18, we’re on 26) it caused the phone to completely glitch out midway and got extremely hot. I couldn’t swipe up to input my passcode to proceed with the installation process. Heck, I couldn’t even force restart it. (quickly press the volume up, volume down immediately after and press and hold the power button until you see the Apple logo) I was almost at my wits end. Fast forward, the device is still glitchy so I reached out to Amazon Customer Care and was advised that I should take it into Apple and if they couldn’t do anything then to proceed with returning it. I obviously didn’t wanna do that. So I attempted to research the issues and after being pulled between Apple’s forum and Reddit’s forum, I decided to put the iPhone in DFU mode. This mode allows you to update and restore the phone via a computer. So boom, it’s in DFU mode and i’m still struggling! So I contact Apple but of course before doing so I see if they’re able to replace a software defective device out of warranty and of course it was a hard no. At this point, I’m ready to give up and just return it but after letting it die out (due to overheating) I let it charge overnight and said “let’s give this oneee more try.” So, I plugged it back into my computer.. same issue. It would pretend to restore and update the device but I would get an error message midway and couldn’t get my phone out of DFU. Only way to get it out was by completing the restoration. Anyway, I looked up the error message it mentioned that it could be a software issue (tell me something i don’t know 🤷🏽‍♀️) or it could be a charger cable issue.. Hmm 🤔 So I switched charging cables (even bought a new one that I would later use) and low and behold the update and restoration finally WORKED… So all in all, I say all of that to say; if you’re having issues with accessing and fully using your new iPhone. It’s more than likely because its software is extremely outdated. What worked for me: Put your phone in DFU mode (look it up if unsure how). Download either Apple Devices (Windows) or iTunes (Mac). While in DFU mode, plug the device up using a USB to lightning Apple Certified cable. A prompt will display saying error something would you like to proceed with restoring or updating? Click “restore” and then “update and restore” (for some reason it didn’t work clicking update first) it’ll take some time but after that it should go through the process of updating and restoring back to the factory settings and then you can proceed with setting the iPhone up as normal. (important!!! the cable needs to be APPLE CERTIFIED not the one from sheetz up the street) I haven’t experienced any delays or issues since updating to the latest version of iOS but i’m giving 3 stars because 1.) the charger it came with didn’t work. and 2.) because i feel like a little help card should’ve been included considering it didn’t have the latest version of iOS on there. Hopefully, TalkTek takes this review into consideration to include a little note in the packaging on updating the device.

Como nuevo

Très bien: Fonctionne bien belle apparence Livrer tel que prévu

Sold as an Excellent in category and came in excellent conditions with 86 percent of battery health and screen and bezel in excellent shape with only one small tiny dent in the bezel top corner. I must say I am pretty impressed and even though the device was dead when it arrived the battery held well. Came with IOS 17 and upgraded to 26. Thats all I had to do. Thank you for standing. by the products you sell

El equipo venía en una caja genérica, con su cargador y cable, en estado excelente, con algunos mínimos detalles de uso. (Rayones) imperceptible a la vista, salvo por los reflejos al fijarse detenidamente en pantalla y cuerpo del movil. Es renovado por lo que su estética es merecedora de un 90. La batería tiene un 85% de vida útil. Por lo que tal ves sea cuestion de tiempo que se degrade mas rápido. El teléfono funciona a la perfeccion y no ha tenido fallos. Fue una buena compra y, al parecer es satisfactorio el equipo.

2026-02-19 - Ordered phone 2026-02-22 - Received phone. Appeared to be in good condition. Set up phone for use. Noticed that battery not recognized and that screen had come from another iPhone. 2026-02-24 – Placed iPhone on desk and it randomly shut down. Then it would shut down and either go into a “boot loop”, or would not boot at all. Sometimes I could get it to start other times, not. 2026-02-25 – checked iPhone analytics data and found “panic-full-...” records, indicating "panicString" : "panic(cpu 0 caller 0xfffffff03877e1a8): \"i2c0::_checkBusStatus Bus is still in a bad state; last read status 00010110 int shadow 00010100 xfer 00000000 fifo 00000000 for device grimaldi\" 2026-02-25 – Called Amazon to see options for dealing with this issue. Was advised that I should reach out to vendor. I reached out to Vendor, who did not respond at all, within 48 hours. Likely Causes (as found by entering the panicString in Google Search AI): - Failed Display Cable/Assembly: The most common cause is a damaged or failing display cable or the sensor flex assembly within the screen. - Short Circuit: A peripheral on the I2C0 line is causing a short-to-ground, preventing the bus from functioning. - Logic Board Failure: Damage to the I2C0 controller on the main board.
