Samsung Galaxy S20+ 5G, US Version, 128GB - Unlocked (Renewed)

So far, so good. Just got it earlier yesterday. I'm using it without a Sim card or plan, and on wifi only, but it's all working good for what I want it looks like a new phone.

I ordered the Galaxy S20+ renewed and it was delivered on time and the product is as described. After charging and booting the phone up, I started the setup process. I have MetroPCS and ordered the unlocked version. Once I got to the sim card part, the phone said it was an AT&T phone and needed an AT&T sim. This had me stressed and I thought the phone was not unlocked. So I had to login to metro account and switch my phone for my line. The site also needed me to change my plan. After I got that sorted it, the phone still wasn't recognizing the Sim. Then I went into the phones setting and it game me the option to select metropcs under the VPN settings. After that, the phone recognized the Sim and all calls and texts have worked excellent. The phone is in excellent quality as well, no scratches that I see, charges fast, very responsive screen. This is only day one for this review. I will update if this review changes. I hope this helps for those that may be having trouble with the Sim cards not working for unlocked phones.

I bought this phone refurbished by amazon, and initially, it worked well. However, now that I am outside of the 90 Day Return policy, the phone is having major issues. It will not hold a charge, the battery decreases strength while you are looking at it. Or, it will go from 100%, to 70%, to 40% to powering off within only several minutes of usage. Today, it stopped allowing me to charge via the cord, and the audio via my headset will not come through the jack nor the speaker phone. Only the bluetooth headset will allow it to function properly. I have purchased other refurbished phones on eBay and they have been great. This has been a terrible experience. Total garbage and should never have been passed off as excellent refurbished condition.

I had this Samsung S20+ for about a week and i love this phone!!! Mine was a refurbushed model, not a single scratch on it, looks brand new & no issues when i turned it on the first time & no issues since then. Yes, it did NOT come with the Samsung box, Samsung cable & usb wall charger. I personally do not care! due to i have a box full of samsung usb cables and wall chargers from my old Samsung phones i bought before. It did come with the tool to remove the sd & sim card & that is the only thing i needed. I had no intent & plan of upgrading my samsung s10+ to the samsung s20+. But at the price and buying prior refurbished samsung i am beyond happy i did it! First, The 5G is very quick & compare to older version what ever its called. which i did not believe until i went online away from my house WIFI service and its very quick. Note: not areas have 5G service. The overall phone response is very quick and smooth. The bixy button is gone (thankgod). The quality of the screen resolution is outstanding & wow its clear! It has a few more minor whistles & bells features compare to the samsung s10+ Nothing to noticable. I do like the new front camera location and its small size & its looks better. I also like you see less of the frame around the curved screen. I know & dont care if there is a technocal name for it. Overall the phone looks great & i didnt get a case this time due to i think looks better with out one. I know, but i rarely & never drop my phone (my s10+ back up) Reference to the camera & quality of the picture which was not a selling point for me. You will notice a much better picture & video quality. The phone over all is a tad thinner & tad taller which i think it makes it easier to hold and use. The battery life seems to be better but i have not fully tested it yet. Charging it seems to be quicker & again i have not fully tested it against my s10+. Now, is the samsung s20+ worth buying if you already have a s10 & s10+??? Personally NO!!!!! I love my s10+ its great phone! The only reason i got the s20+ was the price $700. But if you can afford one (full price) or find one at great price like i did then YES get one!!!! I could have lived very happy with my s10+ with no regrets if i didnt see this s20+ on amazon!

Update: So I ended up returning this phone as well because it became more and more glitchy over time. Ended up purchasing a Samsung Galaxy A53, which is not as good as the S series, but for the price it was better than a glitchy phone So I had purchased the same model from another seller and had nothing but issues with it from the start. I had to return it within the 90 day return period. I purchased this one to replace the other one prior to returning the other one and was able to transfer all my info from my other phone to this phone. This phone has been much much better! It's not perfect and sometimes the sound quality is good and then it's almost as if one of the speakers cuts out and I can only hear out of the other speaker and then it'll kick back on again. Could just be a loose wire or something within the phone, but a lot of times I listen to my phone on Bluetooth speakers anyway and it does not impact the quality of sound that way, so it's a minor issue in my opinion. The battery life is very good, the screen sensitivity is perfect. The only thing is that sometimes when my fingers are damp, the fingerprint reader does not read my fingerprint and I have to manually input my password, but again, minor issue that I'm willing to overlook for the price differential of this phone as opposed to a brand new phone. I'm happy with this purchase

The phone is in perfect condition and works like a charm! I actually got it two days faster than estimated. If you buy an unlocked phone from this seller, it is vital that you read the listing details in advance so you can save yourself the frustration of not setting up your phone correctly or effectively. Before you file a complaint with Amazon or swear that your carrier lied to you about confirming the phone is unlocked. RESET THE NETWORK SETTINGS per the seller's instructions and see that wonderful 5G symbol appear, confirming that you are connected to your network and good to go.

This phone was refurbished and done very well, I know because I refurbish phones or Fix them for people as well as other electronics. Anyways, it was a great price for what we need, we're able to use the "Moble Fence App", and Life 360 App on this device, with both apps we are Able to keep tabs on our soon, and keep safe. Also we can monitor 👀 everything with the Mobile Fence App which Parents should have you can choose what to Block, filter, and see what they are messaging and to who there. This phone has an amazing a CPU, GPU, as wells as great Locking security like Fingerprint technology, and Face Recognition, with Pin or Password Back up, but it also has a easy user friendly Interface that anyone can use. Plus, it takes Awesome Pictures up to 4k, and Video. It has a sleek, but sturdy build to it, it charges fast and also has a wireless Charge that let you share your batter life to other Devices that are compatible and might need a quick charge when their phone is almost dead. I've been using the Samsung Galaxy Devices since I first pick out Galaxy S3 instead of my usual choice of either LG or Sony. But they don't hold even 1% of what the Samsung Galaxy Do, Samsung has been there for me they honor their warranty and their guarantee everytime from my Galaxy Devices to all my othe Samsung Electronics. This is a great phone for such a great Price. So Don't pass it up.

So This was a step down with a renewed from Galaxy S20 5g note to a galaxy S20 5G renewed. Good phone but battery does not last long the password auto fill was iffy. on some apps I had to change my gmail and my yahoo I had to change my Password three time because the password autofill would not work or didn't fill in or remember. Once I had to go into the password storage and click on the app to get it to work. the Yahoo still is not working. The phone also glitches or stop for while viewing a video or instagram stream. The smart switch did not work as well half the apps and program didn't transfer over, I had to reinstall them and make a new password. do not disturb, is another iffy problem, today i missed the time where it was supposed to switch back to daytime (8AM) and turn from dark to back to light. I had to go in and turn it off and remove anything that had " Turn me off" even though I didn't put it on.
