i checked both imei and the replacement set (which is VN set) is manufactured on Dec 2015, but original one (which is MY set) is made on (Sept 2016)

It is Apple policy to only give refurbished set as replacement. If one is lucky he might get a newer set but usually will be older sets

is it good thing to get older set?

is there any issue later on? and since the vn set is made on 2015, is that means that the unit is rejected, repaired, and stored till someone get it out to give to cust as replacement set?

A refurbished set is repaired by Apple and has to pass through their stringent QC before being released back into the market, therefore the risk is about the same as buying a used set that no longer has warranty.

It's up to you to decide if the risk is worth it.

noted. thank you for your advise. need to think about it first before strike the deal.

As long as is refurbished by Apple should be safe. But than no one can guarantee it. It is important to check how much more warranty is left

warranty just ended dec last year. so yeah, might be a bargain, or just take the risk. anyway, thank you.
