TLDR: Great phone, looks new. Pay attention to who the seller is when you make your choice - the seller changes when you choose a different color. I bought from BuySPRY.
All good so far. I was incredibly hesitant to buy a refurbished phone on Amazon after reading so many negative reviews on various products. I spent a lot of time researching my options and figured this one was probably my safest bet. Phone came in perfect condition (seriously, it looks brand new) and so far all the functions seem great. Set up was easy, unlocked, ready to set my fingerprint and everything. It's fast, sleek, and beautiful. Camera and audio are also great.
What I learned: who the seller is is very important.
Although all the phones on here are iPhone 6S 64GB, when you select a different color, the seller changes. When you scroll down and look at the section "Compare to similar items", you will see who the phone is sold by. Looking at the reviews, most of the negative reviews seemed to be associated with the Space Gray more than the other colors. I then looked rating of each seller for each color of the iPhone 6S 64GB and went from there.
As of the time of this review, the Space Gray is listed as "Item Under Review" because of the customer feedback.

Just received my phone today! As far so good! Attached are the pictures of what I received in my package, only thing not pictured was the metal tool to pop out the SIM card tray. Overall very pleased with what I received!
Got this for my daughter as her first smart phone. Wasn't going to spend $400-500 on a phone, so went the factory refurbished route. It is a very nice phone, looks new to me. came with non-OEM charger and cable, but it works so who cares. no ear phones but that's ok. What I liked is the availability of a 1 year protection plan that popped up with I placed this phone in my cart - the protection plan offers don't pop up for all the phone choices so I would place one in my cart the delete it if the protection plan wasn't offered, repeated until I found one that did. All in all I think a good buy. Square Trade provides the protection plan. I used them for a Kindle several years ago and they did a great job replacing it after my son broke it.
I cannot thank enough to people at Bluetek Intl. This was a gift for my daughter and she loves it a lot. The smartphone is in incredibly external shape, no noticeable scratches or dents, like a brand new device. It’s fully unlocked and it has been operating only for three days; so far battery lasts as supposed, compared to other iPhone 6S (64GB) and shows few charging cycles count. These smartphones tend to get warm to hot on the back when using cellular transmission module, but in this case that’s nothing different from my personal device which is brand new from my network operator. I’m considering to purchase a second IPhone 6S or SE from Bluetek Intl. I just would recommend customers of Refurbished Apple smartphone to invest in an original Apple power adapter and lightning cables as these devices are sort of “sensitive” and prone to fail when charged with aftermarket not certified power adapters.
This phone arrived as in new condition. No scratches at all, the screen and back of the phone were protected with plastic as if it was a new phone. After I week of testing and using the phone, it seems to be working fine.
The phone came on time, in new condition, inside a generic box containing the USB and charger. I didn't get the pin to remove the sim card.
In my case, my phone was sold by Kanga Supply. I ended up getting a second phone to take advantage of the price and quality of the phone.
I try to be as honest as possible in my reviews since I rely on other's reviews to make my purchases. [...]

Not an iPhone fan at all. Horrible software. Limited features. And worst of all, horrible 3rd party app integration.
That being said, this phone (iPhone 6s a1688) works exactly as it is supposed to on Sprint once you take it to a company store (i.e., Sprint owned, not franchisee-owned), have them register the device's IMEI with the network, and insert a (free) 6s-specific SIM card, which you can pick up from an Apple store if the Sprint store doesn't have any on hand for such an old phone. All plan-supported features work as they are supported (LTE, Wi-Fi calling, mobile hotspot, &c.).
Purchased from seller MyWit. Arrived in like new condition with a long-lasting battery. No scuffs, scratches, &c. Buy with confidence from that seller, at least.
This was a great way to buy a replacement iPhone 6S. Make sure you check the vendor: this was from BuySPRY who is a certified Amazon refurbished phone provider. The phone arrived in perfect condition inside a sturdy plastic box. The activation instructions were out of date, in that they insisted the phone be activated over Wifi when the iPhone itself refused to work without inserting a valid SIM card. Once I did that, activation proceeded as normal and the phone works perfectly. Great battery life too.
I bought my son this phone because he deserved an upgrade. His grades have been going up and I’m proud. Chubbiestech was great and sent a real top quality product. The phone was given to my son as a Christmas gift but since then there have been no problems with the device. It practically looks and feels like new!
We got this phone for our daughter for Christmas. I have the Plus version and am very happy with both. If you're familiar with Apple products, it works just like the others.
