Must you copy from google before u explain? Refurbished in nigeria are just like buying the 'original fake' that is; when you buy a samsung original phone but has probably itel panel�. Uk used means phones that stayed longer than expected with the manufacturers are sent out of tue country and sold at cheaper price just like your okrika.

sincerely I am not an engineer, I wouldn't know. I messed up with the device. The touch only cost 3k and I didn't replace until it stopped functioning. My documents are still on it

I dey tell u bro. So many ignorance on this thread. If a phone is bought brand new and the owner dropped it within the first 2 weeks and had a screen crack (or maybe it had a factory detect like speaker not working fine), he returns it to the manufacturer and gets a replacement. Manufacturer fixes the problem with OEM parts and resell it as refurbished. What does that have to do with screen burn?

The matter just weak me

OP , LG G4 would have been a good phone but the processor is 32-bit (snapdragon 808) and it has poor battery life despite being 3000mah. Its likely a refurbished phone. You ll be better off with G5 or even with htc m9

Refurbished are phones with defects sent back to the company... company fix the defects and retail them at cheaper price..
Refurbished after fixes from the company can be 100% ok or not 100% reliable like the ones shipped without defects... refurbished aren't fakes.


London UK used where used by the said people in UK or London and shipped to Nigeria for you to buy.


Cloned as the name implies are cloned copies of the original products.
Thank you jare...i was suprises when he said he shouldn't buy it because its a refurbished phone...
What is wrong in buying refurbished phone?
Online self most sellers indicate it as being refurbished meaning they didn't cheat someone buy selling it as a new phone...
Av seen refurbished laptops self whith (refurbished) boldly written on the pack.....and they are all nice...

That's what I always tell people. A brand new phone is the best way to go.
That's it to stay safe it's the best some of this second hand phones are stolen putting the innocent buyer in trouble once police trace it.

Nigerians buy 2nd hand iPhones far more than they buy new ams and you don't see them come here and complain.
The fact that you've had an unfortunate experience with one does not mean anything as far as uk used phones are concerned, what you need to do is to thread carefully and pay attention to who your seller is.
Nigerians can buy whatever they like, what am voicing is my personal opinion, I don't fancy it.

Nothing wrong with buying a refurbished phone... But the word has been messed up by Nigerians. They often confuse refurbished with cloned phones or laptops etc. Refurbished means it has been opened/fixed before.

Just dial dial *#06# then input the imei number on imei.info. This should confirm what the buyer says the phone is.

If you need extra free data or making money from home just dial *432# on your airtel SIM to get started.
How does dialing that code gets one free data because all I can see is a Me2u service?

My brother I have used that phone some time around 2017. This phone have good spec but issue of overheating and battery is another thing. But if you have something like 25k just go and buy new phone avoid unnecessary drama
Re: How To Tell If This Phone Is A Refurbished Or Original London Used? (Photo) by Goddyj(m): 3:11pm On May 13, 2020
New phone is the best; Refurbished phone is better; London used phone is good. Cloned phone is a NO NO!
OP that phone is a clone. Drop it immediately and run!!!
