Samsung Galaxy S21 5G, US Version, 128GB, Phantom White - Unlocked (Renewed)

This phone is wonderful. It's extremely fast, loads everything pretty much immediately, has a good, loud speaker and has done everything I have needed it to do perfectly. The only issue, and unfortunately is a very big one, is the poor battery life that it has.The SECOND I take my phone off the charger it IMMEDIATELY starts to drain even when I'm not using it or have nothing open.I'll take it off charge in the morning, look at the time and set it on my night stand on the lock screen while I get ready for work which only takes me a few minutes as I shower the night before. So simply getting out of bed, putting my clothes on and brushing my teeth is all I do and by the time I get back to my room my phone has already dropped around 5 or 6%.I work 8 hours. By the time I get to work my phone is usually in the 80s percentage wise and at the end of my work day it's fully dead.All of my older phones: Samsung Galaxy A50, LG V20, etc all had very long lasting batteries even though they were much cheaper phones than this and they would literally last me from the minute I woke up, until the minute I went to bed and that's WITH continuous usage including playing Spotify all day at work.This phone dies so quickly and if I'm using it continuously or using it to listen to Spotify at work it will die within a matter of two hours and that may be generous.I'm not sure why the battery is so bad, I know it's likely because it's refurbished because I'm sure a brand new model wouldn't be like this, but with this refurbished phone the battery life is horrendous.Other than that though this is a wonderful phone and if you get one that has a good battery I am 100% guaranteed that you will be MORE than satisfied!

Condition was great. Seems new. Functions good.

I needed a phone badly. I have severe health risk and need a device with my health issues accessible by medical personnel in case I'm unconscious. I couldn't afford a new one.Heck not even a used one.But I got it to replace a old iPhone 8 that blew after years. Fresh out the box this overheating. It has now been one day. I tried updatingBut it's just overheating over any use now.This is so stressful because moving apps is a long process with all the security verifications that are ridiculous. Plus I changed numbers and providers. Now I'll have no phone.I asked for a replacement and it is even worse! It will not hold a charge. It says "slow charging use charger that came with device" which I am. So the offbrand charger and cord they send isn't even compatible! It won't even stay charged 2 hours really. It's embarrassing to have to charge when I'm in public despite charging it in my car. Plus this phone is notcalibrated. Typing is a chore. Swipe doesn't work either.Update: replacement arrived and it wont hold a charge. No way to check battery health on these. I'll have to return it but wait until I can afford another phone so I'm not without a phone. I lost access to decades old accounts because I erased the first phone not knowing they would force me to login from those. It's so ridiculous. I contacted the seller and they said they aren't the seller that quote "15-20 other people sell" what does that even mean? Then on top of it, they get to decide my refund which WAS NOT disclosed prior to purchase.Then I have to wait 30 days for processing and up to 7 more business days for a refund . Definitely do not recommend.
