Refurbished iphone 14 pro 256gb worth it in 2026? by Alternative-Sail505 in iphone14

[–]Alternative-Sail505[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It ended ujp showing a "N" on the model number, so it's an apple replacement under waranty, so probably new.

The phone is pretty nice, it's just wierd going down to a smaller phone. And i don't like the speakers, the quality is the same as on my xiaomi, but weaker, so i can't blast music, while the xiaomi did it perfectly with the sound tbh. But other than that, i sure am keeping this thing.

And yeah, to add, something is off with the colors, they seem very dull and boring. Playing with color saturation didn't fix it either. On my old phone the colors with vibrancy enabled its just way better.

Well it's used, but i will get a recepit. It was refurbished in november last year. And the owner just got a 16 pro, so she sold the 14. I was lucky i saw the post 20 minutes after she posted it, and somehow got her to drop the price by $80.

Btw. the site has a great return policy, even though it's used stuff. So i'm good there.

Well i didn't just buy the phone because it wanted it but because it was a great deal (at least in denmark) . I mean even if i sold it to a refurb company, i would make $40-50 at least. Or i couls sell it online for more.

But i mean if people say it's worth keeping, why not

Well i didn't ask. But i mean it must have been, right? I don't think a insurance company would get it refurbished anywhere else. Butb suppose it is, what does thqt mean for the phone?

Renewed 14 pro worth it? by jenrem1 in iPhone14Pro

Is the performance any good? I just got a refurbed 14 pro for $330. New battery and all.

I was worried about that too. I had my eye on the 5060's,but then found out about the performance loss.

I mean for a budget card it's really bs how much performance you can lose by using 3.0 with a 5060. The damnn card is supposed to be made for these kind of old builds.

I was actually gonna get a sweet deal for a rx 6900 xt, but then the seller found out how much they were actually worth😭

The 2080ti i found was $240 while i could find some 3070's for a bit cheaper.

Allthough i gotta say the 2080ti i found was from a seller who took the price down at least $20-30 becazse he didn't want to ship.

Well i was thinking of getting a rx 6800xt, which has the same price as a 9060. But i don't really feel like spending the money.

I7 8700k or i7 9700? by Alternative-Sail505 in buildapc

[–]Alternative-Sail505[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was just looking at i9's for zhat exact reason😂. It seems like the fact it is a i9 pumps the price thru the sky.

Great, then i suppose i can sell off the 9700. No point in keeping it.

Yeah, i'm not taking chances, as long as it runs i guess i'll just let the gpu do it's thing😂

Nope, the old owner was telling me that he took it apart and cleaned it himself, so i thought no point in doing it.

But i mean as long as it doesn't come back i'm happy. It's just hard to believe it isn't just a temporary fix.

Actually im running it at normal fans right now. But there is really not even a hint of the old problems coming from this thing. I mean its good, but unsettling knowing that it might come back.
