Verified purchaseI was using an Xperia with an au carrier before I changed my phone, but the product I received was originally a docomo carrier and I received a notification that I needed a d-account to upgrade my phonebook etc. As for me, the unnecessary, pre-installed apps were from docomo and I wanted to delete them, but I couldn't do that either. I think the problem was that I did not know the original carrier information of the phone before I bought it in the first place, and only found out after I arrived and opened the box. However, I thought it would be OK because it was SIM-free and I had transferred the data from my previous phone, so even if I had it exchanged for an au carrier Xperia, would I continue to use it considering the hassle of transferring data and re-logging in to the apps? I'm not sure... It's a real shame because the product itself is very beautiful and works very smoothly.

Verified purchaseThere is nothing wrong with the actual product itself. However, it was unexpected that the hardware was the docomo version, even though it is SIM-free. If possible, I wanted the au version. I wish you would have sold it with that information on it. I thought about returning it, but it's a hassle, so I'm using it as it is, but something doesn't feel right.

Here’s what you help prevent on average by choosing a reborn smartphone over a brand new one.
That's like driving a ute from Sydney to Adelaide.
That’s around the weight of a cricket ball.
That's like 20 dogs digging in your back yard for a week.
That's like running a tap for 3 days
