Apple iPhone 13 Pro Max, 128GB, Silver - Unlocked (Renewed)

Aside from the phone being nearly perfect, no visible signs of wear and tear, no delays (after updating and restoring), unlocked, and the battery is good (84% health).(lengthy story and complaint incoming)However, (and hopefully this helps someone else who faces the same problem) I’m giving it 3 stars because I had the worse experience setting it up. Not to mention the charging cable that came with it didn’t work. Anyway, to the pressing issue here I did what I would normally do when setting up a new iPhone and followed the prompts to transfer my data through the cloud onto this device. However, due to the phone’s software being completely outdated (ios18, we’re on 26) it caused the phone to completely glitch out midway and got extremely hot. I couldn’t swipe up to input my passcode to proceed with the installation process. Heck, I couldn’t even force restart it. (quickly press the volume up, volume down immediately after and press and hold the power button until you see the Apple logo) I was almost at my wits end. Fast forward, the device is still glitchy so I reached out to Amazon Customer Care and was advised that I should take it into Apple and if they couldn’t do anything then to proceed with returning it. I obviously didn’t wanna do that. So I attempted to research the issues and after being pulled between Apple’s forum and Reddit’s forum, I decided to put the iPhone in DFU mode. This mode allows you to update and restore the phone via a computer. So boom, it’s in DFU mode and i’m still struggling! So I contact Apple but of course before doing so I see if they’re able to replace a software defective device out of warranty and of course it was a hard no. At this point, I’m ready to give up and just return it but after letting it die out (due to overheating) I let it charge overnight and said “let’s give this oneee more try.” So, I plugged it back into my computer.. same issue. It would pretend to restore and update the device but I would get an error message midway and couldn’t get my phone out of DFU. Only way to get it out was by completing the restoration. Anyway, I looked up the error message it mentioned that it could be a software issue (tell me something i don’t know ‍♀️) or it could be a charger cable issue.. Hmm So I switched charging cables (even bought a new one that I would later use) and low and behold the update and restoration finally WORKED…So all in all, I say all of that to say; if you’re having issues with accessing and fully using your new iPhone. It’s more than likely because its software is extremely outdated.What worked for me:Put your phone in DFU mode (look it up if unsure how). Download either Apple Devices (Windows) or iTunes (Mac). While in DFU mode, plug the device up using a USB to lightning Apple Certified cable. A prompt will display saying error something would you like to proceed with restoring or updating? Click “restore” and then “update and restore” (for some reason it didn’t work clicking update first) it’ll take some time but after that it should go through the process of updating and restoring back to the factory settings and then you can proceed with setting the iPhone up as normal. (important!!! the cable needs to be APPLE CERTIFIED not the one from sheetz up the street)I haven’t experienced any delays or issues since updating to the latest version of iOS but i’m giving 3 stars because 1.) the charger it came with didn’t work. and 2.) because i feel like a little help card should’ve been included considering it didn’t have the latest version of iOS on there.Hopefully, TalkTek takes this review into consideration to include a little note in the packaging on updating the device.

Tiene una estética de 9, está perfecto salvo un pequeño golpe en una esquina como se ve en la imagen pero no se ve mucho, la batería es un 87% pudo a ver sido mejor pero no está mal, todo es original y no se ve que se haya cambiado ninguna pieza, lo usaré los 90 días y volveré a escribir receña!

Llegó en muy buenas condiciones, no tiene ningún rayón, está súper bonito. Me llegó con poca pila, pero todo excelente, estoy muy feliz.

Today is Wednesday, August 20, 2025. I’ve always wanted the iPhone 13 Pro Max in Alpine Green ever since it was released, so I decided to give this seller a chance despite the mixed reviews and their 4.5-star rating. I ordered the iPhone 13 Pro Max, Alpine Green, 256GB – Unlocked, Renewed (Excellent Condition).Unfortunately, my experience was disappointing. First, the phone arrived a day late, even though I’m a Prime member (not necessarily the seller’s fault, but still frustrating). When I finally opened the package, the phone was the wrong color (Silver instead of Alpine Green) and had noticeable scratches and chips around the camera lens and aluminum frame. While some wear is expected on a refurbished phone, this was advertised as “Excellent Condition,” and I expected better.To be fair, I still tested the phone. I went into the settings to check everything:Verified the IMEI and serial number to ensure the device was legitimate.Confirmed it was fully unlocked with no SIM restrictions.Checked for any non-Apple parts — thankfully, everything appeared original.The phone’s functions worked well (Face ID, speakers, cameras, flash, vibration, etc.). The screen looked great with almost no scratches, the phone screen sensitivity could have been more proactive, and the back glass was in good condition. However, the biggest disappointment was the battery health: only 77%. According to Amazon’s “Renewed Excellent” standards, it should be at least 80%. For the price I paid, this was unacceptable.As a busy college student, I don’t have the time to send the phone back, but I do feel let down. I’ll likely have to spend another ~$100 to replace the battery at my university’s tech repair shop.Overall, I’m leaving 4 stars because the phone does function well and matches the storage capacity I ordered, but the wrong color, poor battery health, and condition not matching the description made this purchase very frustrating. My advice: check the IMEI, serial, SIM restrictions, and battery health right away when buying renewed iPhones, and read the reviews carefully before purchasing.P.S. I purchased a screen protector separately for extra protection. Also, note that the box only included a USB Lightning cable — no charging adapter. If you don’t already have one, I recommend buying an adapter or a complete charger along with the phone.

Porque gastar en un equipo nuevo si hay reacondicionados en excelentes condiciones ??.. llevo 5 Iphone comprados y todos funcionan al 100 y en perfectas condiciones sin detalles como Nuevos!!! Compren…al momento del video llevo 15 meses con el equipo OJO el color es hermoso

This renewed iPhone 13 Pro Max is absolutely perfect! It arrived in pristine, premium condition, unlocked so I could use with a provider of my choice—no scratches, no blemishes, —honestly, it looks great, like it came straight from the Apple Store. The seller shipped it immediately, even before my payment processed, and it arrived two days earlier than expected. Was simple to transfer from my previous iPhone to this one. Packaging was top-notch so as to protect the screen and the device itself, battery life is an impressive 98%, and every function works flawlessly. On top of that, I had a question right after shipping, and the seller responded quickly and clearly. I am beyond thrilled with this purchase—truly a five-star experience in every way!

I’ve been using the iPhone 13 Pro Max for a while now and absolutely love it! The camera quality is stunning, photos come out crystal clear even in low light. The battery lasts all day with heavy use, and the screen is bright and smooth. It runs super fast and handles everything effortlessly. Definitely worth every penny — highly recommended!

So far it has worked perfectly.The phone was in good condition, with no scratches a very good value for my money and the perfect size. I love it!

Fue un regalo para mi papá y le encantó, el embalaje del producto estaba muy bien y llegó en muy buen estado y con 86% de condición de batería, la estética del celular 10/10 ni un detalle. Lo volvería a comprar✌️

I ordered the phone for my uncle. I was a worried because I thought it wouldn't be in good conditio, but I was surprised everything was like new, a perfect restoration, and the battery was good!!!

Mint condition. I bought refurbished excellent and it feels and functions like a brand new iPhone. No scratches or dents at all. Ordered it on Wednesday, November 12 and it was delivered in less than 3 days.

Minor light scratches around phone but still very clean and nice, battery health at 82% so not to bad

I was super nervous purchasing a used phone especially off Amazon through a second party seller, but this phone arrived in 1 day with prime, had to give a code to my delivery driver so it wasn’t just thrown around, the phone came in a standard white box bubble wrapped perfectly, the phone was in perfect condition, no scratches, no cracks, not even finger prints on the sides! All buttons function properly as well as the screen. The battery life was 88%, but it seems to last up to 2.5 days, I am constantly on my phone and it hasn’t died yet. I think I’ve charged it fully once since I’ve gotten it because it arrived on 50%. I couldn’t be more happy! I am super impressed and will definitely consider buying a used phone from this company again!
