Arrival Checks for Your iPhone 7 Plus Grade B
When your refurbished iPhone 7 Plus arrives, take a few minutes to verify the key points before setting it up fully.
- Check the display: Turn on the phone and look for any bright spots, dead pixels, or significant scratches. The 5.5-inch Retina HD display should be crisp with no discoloration.
- Test the cameras: Open the camera app and switch between the wide and telephoto lenses. Take a photo in Portrait mode to confirm the dual-camera system works. Check the front-facing 7MP camera as well.
- Verify battery health: Go to Settings > Battery > Battery Health & Charging. The maximum capacity should be above 80%. If it is lower, the listing's claim is not met.
- Inspect physical condition: Grade B allows minor cosmetic wear. Check the Rose Gold aluminum back and edges for dents or deep scratches that exceed typical Grade B standards.
- Test the Home button and Touch ID: The solid-state Home button uses Taptic Engine feedback. Set up Touch ID to ensure the sensor works reliably.
What the Listing Does Not Tell You
The listing does not specify the exact battery percentage, only that it is above 80%. It also does not confirm the condition of the included generic box or whether any accessories (like a Lightning cable or power adapter) are included. The absence of a 3.5mm headphone jack means you will need to budget for a Lightning-to-3.5mm adapter or Bluetooth headphones if you use wired audio. The listing does not provide a warranty duration or return policy details, so check the store's standard terms.
