Looks alright to me. So long it has the lightning port it would be ok.There are many manufacturers that supplies cables for handphones. I for one would look out for those cables that comes with "MFI" certifications. MFI = Made for iPhones are those cables which have been tested by apple and certified safe to be used with iPhones. These are the cables you should be getting.

I would advise to get directly from Apple Store for older models if they have it on their website. I have a friend who is working in phone industries and it is well known that most of the old models you see in the market right now are all refurbished even if they tell and sell to you as new.

i am planning to buy a refurbished model tho..

I am using the nylon braided Anker MFI cable. Its RM70 but very tough, durable and also faster charging. Then there is the Aukey braided cables these are also recommended. Price around RM55 and compliments their qualcomm fast chargers very well. Bought through Lazada.

There are ways to tell whether the refurbished models or not. If from Apple themselves, refurbished apple certified handphones have 1 year apple warranty. There is no such thing as Grade A or 3 stars etc etc, these are all local refurbished and some have warranty whereas some do not have but are reflective of the offer price.

Apple mentioned somewhere in their website that batteries should have a health of not less than 80% capacity after the 2nd year of ownership. So with your calculations above, it looks good.

hello all, i dont know how to make the 3D touch work, i try on the message app but all i get is some blurred out background with no extra options. Tried reseting the phone, didn't work either. I remembered somehow accessing it when i first got the phone but now it doesn't seem to work, is there a technique to touch it?

And yes, my 3D touch setting is switched on.

Please don't mislead. Apple refurbished unit is a replacement set given to user who having problem with their phone. Warranty will follow the owner previous phone warranty if it's more then 3 months or 3 months max if it's about to expired.
