Excellent phone, condition "like new"
I was looking to replace my iPhone4 with a newer model with software updates. The iPhone 5S met my expectations. It's thinner and lighter than my old phone and I like the ability to use a fingerprint vs. a four-digit code to access all of its features. I was unaware that the "5S" required a SIM card to be activated on the Verizon network which I purchased after the fact but I received an account credit that almost matched the cost of the card. The condition of the iPhone 5S was "like new" and there were no problems inserting the SIM card, setting up the phone and activating it with Verizon. I'm completely satisfied with this purchase. I also liked the option to have it delivered to my local Walmart store for pickup.

Not as advertised.
I read the other reviews of the condition of the refurbished phones that Walmart sold and was excited to order as a Christmas gift. I order on the Dec 16th and it arrived on Dec 23th. Only 2 days before Christmas. The phone came in brown shipping box shrunk wrapped to the top of the box. Off brand cord and charger. The power cord was for an Android phone micro USB will not connect to the Apple Iphone. I had to go out and purchase a new charger and cable. No earbuds or even a presentable box. The other reviews stated they received phone in boxes a with all the accessories. I contacted the seller about the charger cord but no response from the vendor.

    Had to be returned
    After spending hours trying to set it up with my own phone number, Verizon said it was still locked to another account. It still had another phone number and they couldn't change it. I emailed text zone, the company that actually provides it, and they said it had to be returned for full refund. It's been five days, and I haven't seen the refund appear on my credit card balance. The Walmart website does not provide easy access to customer support.

    As advertised
    Bought this phone for my daughter at Christmas. Phone arrived on time and looked like a new phone. Not a scratch on it and works great. The one I bought her a last year was junk hope this one lasts.

    Extremely dissatisfied
    We bought two refurbished iPhones through Walmart and I'm extremely dissatisfied with the vendor (Smart Mobile) they used to fulfill the order. First, the phones came with Android chargers instead of iPhone chargers. These chargers were obviously incompatible with the phones and I don't know why they were included. Second, we went to Verizon to activate the two phones and one of the phones did not work with the carrier as advertised (perhaps the phone was stolen?). So it's essentially useless. I tried calling and emailing the vendor but received no response. Between sending incompatible chargers with the iPhones and sending a phone that was falsely advertised as working with Verizon, I am surprised Smart Mobile is able to partner with a largely reputable company like Walmart. I will never purchase a phone from them again. Buyer beware.

    Like Brand New
    My son's iPhone 6 was stolen and while still in contract we had to purchase him a replacement at a good price. I looked on Amazon, Ebay, Craigslist etc.... and found this to be the best price with best reviews where I could purchase from somewhere I trust. We were not disappointed. The phone came in originally packaging, looked brand new and has worked perfectly. We did have to go to Verizon to buy a SIM card (about $20) but other than that I would highly recommend this phone. Phone came with charger, headphones & cloth.

    So far they work great!!
    I'm glad I saw this at walmart. I had read the reviews and took the chance. I received my two iphone 5S in a timely matter. They worked great! It had said that the were locked to Verizon, but when I went to tmobile to put them on my line they were already unlocked. They seem to be working great so far!

    Perfect and UNLOCKED!
    I do work for walmart (get that out of the way) but I'm also the biggest critic when it comes to the business and the product - especially wireless! I just bought two refurbished Verizon iPhones as gifts and one was this iPhone 5s 16GB and the other was a 6 64GB. According to the site both were locked to Verizon. I expected a good experience but even I was surprised that both phones were indistinguishable from new. The box was factory new, shrink wrapped, and came with all the original accessories - even the screen came protected with a film. And even better both Phones were UNLOCKED!!! That means it will work with most any carrier (Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, any world wide GSM service that uses a SIM card, but I'm not sure about Sprint). I took out my T-Mobile SIM from my iPhone 6 Plus and inserted it into each phone and powered them on and both instantly recognized the service and was working! The phones work perfectly (and I am a power user), no scratches, blemishes, dings, or dents. I am very happy that we offer these and will be back for more! I have uploaded images so you can see but we only allow 2 images at 1.5mb max so I had to group them. If you are considering getting one of these refurb iPhones - go for it! I know you will be happy with it.

    Blue screen of death
    First day using it and I constantly get the blue screen of death followed by a short reboot. This is for the refurbished iphone 5s. The warranty on these products is only a 90 day warranty. If you buy it brand new, you pay extra but at least apple will give you a full year warranty from purchase date. Something worth considering.
