What if china cheapo charger charged your iphone and never get any problem until your warranty expire then problem come..

Mine is a replacement unit, but honestly I feel better to have a refurbished unit. Because it is usually 100% no problem since the phone is being investigated and take apart and put together again with all the new stuffs.

My original unit has no sound output so i cant live with it lol. As with this refurbished unit, i dropped my phone two times and seems like everything is still functioning well

BTW, why are u guys using 3rd party charger when u have the original charger that comes with the phone. so fast spoilt 1 ar?

as u know the cost to buy the original usb cable is quite high...sometime money is not in the money so they will choose to buy the oem one..

3rd party charger i referring is like car charger those..
heard from the repairer who fix my phone said those 3rd party charger do not have the same output of battery compare to the original 1..

3rd party charger means the charge which is made by other manufacturer and not by apple..it including wall charger, car charger n battery pack mate...

u r rite, the output is not same as to the original one..but not all 3rd party charger not supply same output.u need to choose a better brand which is certified made for iphone like belkin car charger...

yea.. dats why sharing here not to choose the product because of its price..
always consider quality at the 1st place

They said it's new. so consider not new already bluff me de

my bro's gf iphone got problem and went to celcom . they change a new one for me .........

Think of it this way. A bought iphone today and tomorrow send back to get a replacement becuz got problem. Then the iphone is bring to fix and send back as replacement unit.

B got A's replacement iphone, is still totally new and fixed (A only use for 1 day) with no scratching whatsoever.

So it's considered new lah...just other ppl touch before only loh. same like how u touch our iphone aredi before changing it with a replacement unit.

if u sent the warranty after 1 day using it sure they will give u 1 to 1 exchange the whole set mate..

how to diff the new unit or replacement unit ?

no one is bluffing u. say u bought a tshirt at a store... but that shirt got once ppl got try on but didnt buy. is the shirt still new? of course yes

To me a replacement(refurbished) unit is new. In fact a refurbished unit is a unit with double the QC.

maxis gave me a replacement set last month...
Pros:
1. dropped twice still prob FREE
2. it FREAKIN NEW!!

Cons:
1. Yellowish effect on the screen compared to previous ones
2. Itz not M'sia set

mine doesnt have yellowish effect..u should realize this when u receive it before u sign the acceptance letter..its easy, just setting the brightness to 100% n u will realize whether its yellowish or not..if yellowish u can ask them to replace with the other unit..

i knew that bro....i'm ok with the effect actually...not that obvious ni....unless u compared it with other phones laa...haha...no worries man....i know some brightstars fellas...if my hp got prob in future...they gonna b in trouble

how u know it was a not a my set mate..?

settings-->general-->about-->MODEL

my replacement set is MC318(LL)
M'sia set shud b (MY) instead

*Brightstar normally will take all the prob iphones and send to singapore to get it fix.
* I ASSUMED the replacement sets are mostly from Singapore or other country like Australia

im on my refurbished set too .. just have a check on it..
mine is MB.. any idea from where..?

i'm not sure bro...letz get our finger crossed and hope that these refurbished set are SAFE to use and PROB FREE!!!
