Reviews Samsung Galaxy S8 (G950u GSM only) 5.8" 64GB, Unlocked Smartphone for all GSM Carriers - Midnight Black (Certified Refurbished)

Purchased a week ago and arrived early to my delight. The phone came in a generic box and it appeared to be unused. The phone I received did not have those preloaded carrier apps, which is great since I use a third party carrier (MetroPCS), and couldn't use carrier loaded apps from AT&T and the likes that would only take up room on the phone. This leads me to think that it was an unlocked phone right out of the factory. Activating with MetroPCS may require contacting customer support or visiting their store. I haven't had much luck activating through the MetroPCS website or over the automated phone (probably because its not a MetroPCS locked phone). Overall, very happy with the purchase and will recommend.

The phone itself is beautiful. Works great and no problems at all. The only thing is the charger that came with the phone is not charging well. In an hour it barely goes up 10%. I haven't been able to contact them as I can't seem to find that option or they don't have it.

Much more than I was expecting
It works great

It wasn't a s8 plus it was a s8 and i like it very much. It works better than my old one.

The phone arrived in a plain white box. It had the charger and some accessories which are branded/marked Samsung. The phone appeared like new, no scratches or marks. I had it activated at the AT&T store with no problems. The tech there said he would never have believed it was not new. It has been working so far without any problems. Oh, and I have dropped it a couple of times and it hasn't broken (I do have it in a hard case)

The phone came in good conditions, no scratches, no cracks however the charger that came with the phone was an iPhone charger so this phone is useless to me until I get a charger for it

Arrived looking like it's New! Had no problem activating with my carrier. Wish mine came with headphones but overall pleased with this purchase!

The phone is very nice and looks brand new. It does have a T-Mobile load screen but luckily that is my carrier. I imagine it would be fine on other GSM carriers since it uses a sim card. Just a note that all you get is the phone with a generic charger and cable. Not included is the tool for opening the SIM/SD card slot but a needle or pin works fine. There is also no manual so you will have to get that online. If you don't have a Nano sim card you will need to get one or cut down your larger one. Templates are online. A new sim is only $10 if you order here instead of the $25 you will get charged at the store. You can change your sim card online for free.

Overall I am very pleased with the phone for the much lower price than one direct from Samsung. It updated several times getting to the latest Android OS. Very very fast with lots of memory although I did add a 200GB micro SD card for extra storage over the internal 64GB.

Great phone had it for about a month now and no problems.

I bought the S8+ through ElectroWireless refurbished. The product had blazing fast shipping. In my case was same day. The product is GSM compatible and I received an unlocked T-Mobile branded phone. I'm currently running Cricket Wireless in the United States

The phones condition is very much refurbished. The actual body has scuff marks on the back but they do not hurt the function of the phone. The screen is like new, camera works greatball sensors and ports pristine. Scuffs easily hidden via a case.

Battery life is ALWAYS a sore spot on Samsung used devices due to people misusing them and not calibrating them out of the box. This battery is average. Not all day use but will work fine.

THIS IS A GREAT DEAL. The S8+ retails for $500;and I got this under $400. I highly recommend it. The seller is awesome.
