Samsung Galaxy S9+, 64GB, Lilac Purple - For Verizon (Renewed)

Warning these are not Factory Unlocked S9+.They are SIM unlocked. Meaning they only work on certain US Carriers that they were originally purchased from.Verizon, AT&T, & Sprint Currently refuse to use a SIM unlocked Phone that was originally purchased from another carrier.The 1 star rating is for the lack of disclosure from the seller in the product description.

I got this phone just in time to switch carriers as my current billing cycle ends tomorrow. I went into Verizon to setup this phone and its NOT UNLOCKED despite the "LTE Unlocked" sticker on the back of the phone. Its still on Sprint. Amazon put me in touch with Samsung who put me in touch with Sprint who told me to contact Amazon. Big circle and huge waste of time. Now i am going to be without phone service until this gets figured out. Very frustrating.

i received the phone today, well packaged (NOT in it's original box, but the packaging was appropriate). Upon opening the package and inspection, I was pleasantly surprised to see the original charger and earbuds included... However, i was disappointed to find that the fingerprint scanner was seriously chipped in 2 places by something sharp (see pictures), which made it unusable. I don't think it was worth the price paid, given the fingerprint sensor is broken... but I chose to keep it, i will be using a complex unlock password. And, for "the good news", this phone was actually unlocked and i was able to register it on the T-Mo network with zero issues . I seriously question how this phone was "certified", though. Again, i don't think it was worth the price paid... but i needed a decent phone, and this one does the job. Buyers out there... BEWARE, and use Amazon's free return shipping if needed - they're awesome.

The price different was probably around $50 for a new s9+. I really regret trying to cheapen out for a refurbished. The phone came full of scratches and was not unlocked. It is not like new. Don't risk it.

Bought this phone last week and when I first powered it on It had sprint Bloatware all in it. Put my straight talk sim card in it and can't get data. Will let me text and call but won't let me use the internet. I've contacted seller and if issue can be resolved then I will gladly update the rating. But until then I am not impressed, looks like a returns in my near future

Despite adjusting the screen display setting, the phone keeps dimming every 5 seconds and there are some other glitchy things it does. The company sent me a second phone and it does the same thing. The Verizon tech could not solve the issue and referred me to a Samsung tech who determined that the seller is not doing their refurbishing under Samsung's protocol. They couldn't even get the phone to accept the security updates. I use my phone 100% of the time for work and this has been a major inconvenience and more stress than I could imagine. I would not buy from them again. They have to know their product is crap. The stupid screen won't even stay on unless it's an active app or video. How could it possibly pass an inspection? I gave them a chance to send me a phone that actually worked and they didn't even check the second phone before sending it to make sure I wouldn't be dealing with the same issue again. That's not service.

The title says unlocked however when I turned on the phone it said Verizon and my sim card is incompatible. There was also some scratches on the screen as well as the back. Overall I was extremely disappointed with this product. Will be returning

Wanted a Verizon unlocked phone, received an ATT&T phone that still has a balance. Not cool! Please either pay off the balance or send me a new (not used) S9 plus black phone! Thanks

On the description it says “UNLOCK” so I bought it, and I needed the extra SIM card for travelling. True enough I went to part of Asia for a holiday, when I put the SIM card in the phone asked for network unlock code. The SIM card was invalid.... I was very surprised bacause all I know I have an unlocked phone.I wish the seller have given this information, if this is normal to Samsung well I did not know, I’m sure many doesn’t either.The phone is great but it has its restriction, and I defeats the purpose of having and UNLOCKED PHONE.If you don’t travel to other region (outside Europe) this is good for you but if you do be prepare for the hassle.

I won't review the phone itself as there are a lot of reviews on the Internet. Everyone knows how good it is.My phone arrived a day after I placed my order. The box was sealed. After opening the box I inspected the contents, everything was included: earphones, cables, two USB converters, manuals and a U.K. spec. fast charger. The phone itself was still covered in the protective plastic film. It's a new phone so no worries there.After starting the phone for the first time the language was Italian, but it was prompting for the setup language. Just change it to English GB, follow the setup procedure and, when complete, the phone is a U.K. spec. device.I left the phone on and, during the course of the day, it was downloading updates, including two updates to Android 8. I assume it'll upgrade to Android 9 when Samsung is ready.Overall I'm very satisfied, especially at the price.UPDATEThere appears to be some confusion about the exact model. Looking at my phone in the Settings > About Phone menu the model is "SM-G965F". It's listed as supported on Samsung's U.K. website.

This phone is not unlocked!

Its not as great as previously stated. It drains battery (lasts up to maybe 2-3 hours) without doing anything other than check emails and use whatsapp which is worse than my J5 from 2016. The seller advertised it as having 128g worth of internal storage but it only has 64gigs, the big selling point for me was a good camera (which it has), a better battery life than what I had and internal storage so its a bit of a let down, the seller advertised the phone as being in excellent condition which is not the case, the exterior is great and looks good as new, there are no OS issues but the battery life is just really bad and the storage space was misrepresented. I assumed any issues it has would be disclosed since it is a refurbished phone if I knew about the battery life before hand I would not have bought it.

Best mobile phone I have ever had - I know that iPhone users will not agree with that statement [but what do they know :) ].I use good headphones with it and it sounds great and the camera is superbIt is expensive but the price has dropped a bit now that it has been out for a few months [and the S10 is imminent of course]You can even use it to make calls on if you are that way inclined :)
