Wefurb Products
What are the Wefurb device conditions?
At Wefurb, we believe in full transparency. All our devices are 100% functional, but their cosmetic condition varies. To help you choose, we classify them into simple grades so you know exactly what to expect.
- Excellent: The device is in pristine, like-new condition. The screen is flawless, and the body shows no visible signs of use from a normal viewing distance. It's the closest you can get to a brand-new device.
- Very Good: The device is in great condition with only minor signs of wear. It may have very light, superficial scratches on the screen or body, but these are not noticeable during normal use.
- Good: The device shows moderate signs of use but is still in good cosmetic condition. It may have some visible scratches or small scuffs on the body or screen, but it is fully functional and offers the best value for your money.
Regardless of the grade, every device has passed our rigorous functional checks and comes with our 1-year warranty.
What does "refurbished" mean?
A refurbished device is a pre-owned product that has been professionally restored to full working order. Unlike a standard used phone from an unknown seller, a Wefurb device goes through a comprehensive process:
- Inspection: It is tested for dozens of functions, including battery health, camera, screen, connectivity, and performance.
- Repair & Restoration: Any faulty components are repaired or replaced by expert technicians.
- Cleaning & Grading: The device is thoroughly cleaned and cosmetically graded.
- Certification: It is certified to be 100% functional and ready for a new owner.
It’s a high-quality, reliable device that you can trust, backed by the Wefurb warranty.
Are Wefurb products original?
Yes, every device sold by Wefurb is 100% original. We do not sell fake or counterfeit products. While some internal components may have been replaced with high-quality, certified parts to ensure perfect functionality (for example, a new battery), the core device and its main components are genuine.
Do refurbished devices have scratches?
The cosmetic condition depends on the grade you choose (Excellent, Very Good, or Good). An "Excellent" grade device will have no noticeable scratches, while a "Good" grade device may have some. We provide clear descriptions for each grade so you can make an informed choice based on your preference for cosmetics and budget.
Are Wefurb devices waterproof?
To ensure quality, refurbished devices are opened by technicians for testing and restoration. This process can compromise the original waterproof seals. Therefore, we do not guarantee that our devices are waterproof. We strongly advise keeping your Wefurb device away from liquids to prevent any damage, which is not covered by our warranty.
Are Wefurb devices unlocked? Are they compatible with my SIM card?
Yes, all devices sold by Wefurb are 100% unlocked and SIM-free. This means they are not tied to any specific carrier and will work with a valid SIM or eSIM from any network provider in the UAE (such as Etisalat, Du, or Virgin Mobile). You can simply insert your SIM card and start using the device immediately.

Does Wefurb provide a warranty?

Troubleshooting
My phone's battery is draining faster than I expected. What should I do?
Battery life can vary greatly depending on usage, screen brightness, background apps, and network signal. If you feel your battery is draining too quickly, here are a few steps you can take:
- Check Battery Health: For iPhones, go to Settings > Battery > Battery Health. A "Maximum Capacity" above 80% is considered healthy for a refurbished device.
- Update Your Software: Ensure your device is running the latest version of its operating system, as updates often include battery performance improvements. Go to Settings > General > Software Update.
- Optimize Your Settings:Lower your screen brightness or enable Auto-Brightness.Turn off background app refresh for apps you don't need running constantly (Settings > General > Background App Refresh).Enable Low Power Mode.
- Monitor App Usage: Check which apps are consuming the most power in your battery settings. You may want to limit the usage of power-hungry apps.
If you have tried these steps and the battery still performs poorly, please contact us. Your device is covered by our 1-year warranty for significant battery health issues.
My phone is not connecting to Wi-Fi or cellular data. What can I do?
Connectivity issues can usually be resolved with a few simple steps:
- Toggle Airplane Mode: Turn Airplane Mode on, wait 10 seconds, and then turn it off. This resets all wireless radios.
- Restart Your Device: A simple restart can fix many temporary glitches.
- Check Your SIM Card: If you have cellular issues, try re-inserting your SIM card. Ensure it is placed correctly in the tray.
- Reset Network Settings: This is a very effective solution. It will erase your saved Wi-Fi passwords and cellular settings, but it won't delete any of your personal data.On iPhone: Go to Settings > General > Transfer or Reset iPhone > Reset > Reset Network Settings.On Android: Go to Settings > System > Reset options > Reset Wi-Fi, mobile & Bluetooth.
If the problem persists after these steps, it may be a hardware issue. Please contact our support team for a warranty claim.
The Face ID / Touch ID is not working. How can I fix it?
First, ensure nothing is covering the TrueDepth camera (for Face ID) or the Home button/sensor (for Touch ID), including screen protectors or cases.
- Re-register Your Face/Fingerprint: Try deleting your existing Face ID or Touch ID and setting it up again.Go to Settings > Face ID & Passcode (or Touch ID & Passcode).Delete the existing data and choose "Set Up Face ID" or "Add a Fingerprint."
- Ensure Software is Updated: Make sure your device is on the latest OS version.
Please note: If the screen or other components related to these sensors have been replaced, a warning message might appear, but the function should still work perfectly. If it doesn't work after troubleshooting, contact us for support.
(For iPhones) I see a "Non-Genuine Part" or "Unknown Part" warning. Is this normal?
Yes, this is completely normal for some refurbished iPhones. If a component like the battery, screen, or camera has been replaced with a brand new, high-quality part by our certified technicians, newer iOS versions may display a notification like "Important Battery Message" or "Unknown Part."
This is not a defect. It is a standard message from Apple indicating a component was replaced outside of their authorized network. It does not affect the device's performance, functionality, or quality in any way. Your device will function perfectly, and the replaced part is fully covered by your 1-year Wefurb warranty.
(For Samsung/Android) The screen has a slight "burn-in" or "shadow." Is this covered?
Screen burn-in (or screen shadow) is a characteristic of OLED/AMOLED screens where a faint, static image or "ghost" remains visible on the screen. This can happen on devices that have been used as display models.At Wefurb, our cosmetic grading (Excellent, Very Good, Good) accounts for the condition of the screen.
- Excellent grade devices will have no screen burn-in.
- Very Good and Good grade devices may have very faint burn-in, which is not noticeable during normal daily use but might be visible on a plain white background.
Because this is a known cosmetic characteristic of OLED screens and is factored into the device's grade and price, screen burn-in is not considered a functional defect and is not covered by the warranty. We recommend choosing the "Excellent" grade if you require a flawless screen.
My device is running slow or freezing. How can I improve its performance?
If your phone feels sluggish, these steps can often restore its speed:
- Restart the Device: The simplest and most effective first step.
- Free Up Storage: A phone with less than 10% of its storage free can slow down significantly. Delete unnecessary apps, photos, and files.
- Clear App Cache (Android): Go to Settings > Apps, select an app, and tap Storage > Clear Cache.
- Update Software: Ensure your device is running the latest OS version, which often includes performance optimizations.
- Reduce Background Activity: Limit background app refresh and close apps you aren't using.
If performance does not improve, a factory reset can often solve deeper software issues. Remember to back up your data before doing so.
