The media could not be loaded.
At first I was terrified of purchasing it because of the bad reviews.
People said they got cracked phones, malfunctioning ones and even fake ones.
But finally, I mustered up the courage and bought it.
It came fully functional and authentic, with all but one of the promised things.
It came with a replaced battery that is not an apple supplied one.
Because of that I’m unable to check the battery health, but I don’t mind.
In the long run I think it’s better cuz I'm not stressing myself out over the number getting low.
The battery on this XS Max is really good even though it’s not an apple product.
It hold up for most of the day and as a slightly heavy user, I only find myself plugging it in to charge in the evening times or when i go to sleep.
Moving on, it did come with a few scuff marks on the sides and top of the phone.
I didn’t mind this one but because I had already planned to slap this powerhouse directly into a case as soon as I got it.
I’m a notorious phone breaker so I had to for my sanity.
And because of that, I don’t mind the scuffs for:
1: The description did say the phone could have minor scuff marks that can’t be seen at arms length.
and 2: I threw a case on the phone right as i got it so yea.
Lastly. The screen was beautiful and untouched by any scratches.
It even came with a screen protector preinstalled, thank God.
But yea, all in all this was a great buy.
9/10, would definitely recommend <3
