My phone arrived undamaged, in perfect condition! I waited to do this review until I had it for a bit to make sure everything worked right. Well....IT'S AMAZING!!! The phone was not damaged in any way. It looked like a brand new phone, right out of the box! Not only that, but it functions flawlessly. I don't use all of the features (and it has a lot of them), mostly because I don't do social media stuff, or take many pictures. However, taking pictures is absolutely amazing! There are sooooo many options: like filters, colors, cropping, picture size, frame size, etc. There's just a ton of them. There is also Biometric features, which I appreciate. I had the S9+ and the fingerprint reader was on the back. If you use the fingerprint feature on this phone, make sure you set a passcode or pin as well. The fingerprint reader is on the screen. It shows as a pop-up. Of course you have to go through the fingerprint set-up first, and can choose more than one finger/thumb. My concern is that if the screen gets damaged where the reader is, the screen probably wouldn't be able to be able to read your print. It does NOT have an iris scanner. This IS a 5G phone, but it can connect to 4G and other networks as well. I believe there might have been a SIM card, but I honestly don't remember. I took the SIM from my other phone and put it in this one, so I didn't need it anyway. I use AT&T pre-paid, and it works fine. Right out of the box. I don't know if it's unlocked to a variety of different network or service providers. My service provider is AT&T, and the phone I got from this seller is also AT&T. My recommendation to anyone considering purchasing this phone, would be to contact the seller, first and ask about supported service providers. If you have AT&T, it's a total win! :) This phone charges super fast, and the battery life is fabulous. For my usage, anyway. You absolutely have to use a fast charging cable, or you'll ruin your phone. I believe it came with a USB cable, but I can't remember if the block was included. Either way, if you need to get a charging block, and/or cable, MAKE SURE they're fast charging!!! I thought the cable it came with was too short for my needs, so I bought a new one on Amazon that is specifically for the S23+...and phones like it. Another recommendation I have is to get an Otterbox. BEFORE you start using the phone. If you drop it, then a lot of money was spent for nothing. The camera lenses on the back protrude. I personally have the Otterbox Defender series, as the case itself prevents the camera lenses from touching any surface when you lay the phone down. It's the same if you lay it face down. The cover prevents the face from touching the surface of anything. I would seriously consider getting a high quality case with this phone, instead of a cheap knock-off. (Not all cases are created equal.) The phone is constructed of metal, not plastic, so it feels very well made. It's not a light phone, but not super heavy, either. At least to me. The phone doesn't come in an original box. At least mine didn't. It came with the phone and charging cable. I can't remember if it came with the little key that opens the SIM slot. If it doesn't, you'll need to get one. It also doesn't come with a manual. Also, unless you get the S23 Ultra, there is no stylus. If that's what you're looking for, the S23+ doesn't have that capability at all. You aren't able to get an S Pen with it, as the S Pen wouldn't function, even if you bought one and tried. I would also like to mention that it's super easy to transfer your data and contacts (and whatever else) to the S23+. I don't have any idea about transferring from an Apple product, though. Samsung is my go-to for phones. As for settings, there are too many to list. There is a specific one for the battery that I would like to mention, however. It makes it so your phone doesn't charge over 80% when fully charged, which is important. The phone won't overcharge that way and end up ruining your battery. As for call settings, there are a lot of those as well. For people that are hard of hearing, there are options for that. If, on the other hand, you'd like to protect your hearing and how loud the phone can get while listening to music or talking on it, you can limit the volume. It has features for the blind, but I don't know what that entails. It also has the car feature, but I don't know anything about that. I don't drive. I hope this review was helpful. :)

The phone is unlocked. It arrived quickly and only came with a charger cable, which is ok because I have many chargers. The phone is in great condition without any scratches. I would say it's very difficult to tell this apart from a new device. I was able to transfer my esim and get the T-Mobile service working without any issue. After a couple days the phone is working great and I love the larger battery size of 4700mah. This was an upgrade from my Galaxy s21 and even though this is the Plus, it's only slightly better and heavier. I plan to keep this phone for 2-3 years. The seller was also responsive when I reached out to them about canceling the order because Amazon switched my payment method. They responded within 24 hours and I was able to resubmit my order.

Phone arrived in perfect condition, securely packaged, and to my surprise, it even came with a privacy screen protector already installed—nice touch! The Samsung S23 Plus looks and operates like it's brand new. Super smooth performance, great battery life, and the screen is absolutely stunning. I'm upgrading from a refurbished S21 Plus that I used heavily for 3 1/2solid years, and this feels like a major step up in speed and overall quality. Very happy with this purchase. I definitely recommend it if you're looking for a top-tier phone at a great value.

Kindle CustomerReviewed in the United States on April 6, 2025

It would not charge. Completely disappointed. Return initiated. Please issue my refund to Amazon gift card balance. I have made several requests from Amazon to create a return label so this item can be shipped back from Guyana using dhl. Despite my request multiple times as reflected in the chat, they have failed to do so. I have stated that dhl request an air way bill # for the return but Amazon refused to provide it. This is the most frustrating and disappointing purchase. Do not buy unless your refund is guaranteed. Update fedex would charge US$150 to return this item that cost just over US $400. I would advise anyone out of the US not to purchase this item. I have had the worst possible experience with Amazon returning this.

Lovely lavender S23 +. It came with android 13 and one ui 5.1 with no ability to update. So I had to flash it with a patched Odin. Otherwise everything else about the phone is in perfect order. I'm using mine in The Bahamas with no issues. Sim card slots are working. The model number I was sent is sm-s916u. It has one physical sim slot and an e sim imei. The phone is so much quicker after flashing the updated software onto it. Also the bubbles on the screen are from the plastic screen protector it came with. So no worries.

I bought three other Galaxy s23+ phones on the secondary Market- used or refurbished. I had to return all three because there were issues. 1 was an international version (Tip: in search, be sure to specify US version for any phone), 1 camera failed in 2 weeks ( and I am still waiting for the refund 3 wks after seller received it back) but I feel this phone will be the charm. Delivery was quick- no waiting 2 weeks for ground delivery - & at first I thought I had a problem with the SIM card and thinking the phone was locked but it was my error. I contacted the seller by phone who responded on a weekend within 1 hour and helped me figure out my problem. SIM card was perfect fit and worked immediately with my carrier . The phone looked absolutely brand new and it is blazingly fast and better than the other three combined and transferring my data and my folders with apps within them and I think this is a more recent phone. I'm cautiously optimistic but I'm super happy with the quality of the phone and the service I received from the seller. I highly recommend buying from them if you can

It runs perfectly, no scratches no dents no dings, it's fast, camera is really good, plays games amazingly, I don't regret not getting the s24 or s24 plus, I'd recommend the s23+, do your research and if you don't need the top of the line new.. you can get the top of line still kinda new and it does the exact same thing, it has cool AI features and all the stuff cause of the recent updates.. snapdragon gen 2 is still super fast and the 8gbs of ram is good enough, if your rendering high quality videos with a lot of effects get something stronger, if your not, this is very strong, the extra memory is great as well, going from 128 or whatever to 256 or whatever is always good

At first, I was very cautious, especially when you're spending just over a grand on a pre-owned phone on Amazon, but the seller seemed very reliable and shipped the phone to be priority shipping at no extra charge. It didn't come in it's original packaging (which usually has me worried) but the phone is 100% authentic. It came packaged with the charger and the pin for the nano sim. The battery life is practically brand new, I go from 100% to 80% after coming back home from a shift (10 hours including commute, using the phone with moderate scrolling, couple phone/video calls, an hour of gaming on PUBG mobile, Spotify on the bluetooth speaker for the whole shift at work, picture taking of food for the restaurant I work at), I'm very impressed the battery is in a perfect condition. I'll even forget to charge the phone before I go to bed and it'll still survive the shift at work the next day (no seriously, it really does) As for the aesthetics, there was very little to no scratches on my phone. It pretty much arrived in mint condition. Charge ports work perfectly fine along with the wireless charging (and yes, it does fast charging, as it should). Phone calls are loud and clear and so is the speaker on the phone. Fingerprint sensor is very accurate (even with a screen protector) along with facial recognition and the ol' reliable PIN/Pattern code. The cameras work perfectly fine, all four lenses (believe me, I made sure) along with the flash. Overall, I love this phone. More importantly, the seller delivered a great product and a very quick delivery too (literally arrived at my door the next day) and especially at a good price. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐, highly recommend.

Pretty satisfied with this purchase at such a great price for a 512gb device. It looks new, no surprises from other sources from the used market. It also updates like a phone without resorting to third party updating procedures. Works like new. Highly recommended.

El teléfono no esta desbloqueado cuando puse la sim de telcel me aparece que el teléfono solo puede ser utilizado para red at&t, lo voy a llevar para desbloquearlo pero tendra un costo y eso ya es molesto, en la descripción decía que ya venía desbloqueado para cualquier compañía y aparte lo pedí en color verde y mandaron negro.

I got a refurbished S23+ with "excellent" rating. No noticeable scratches, I got a different brand charger in the box. I also ordered an S22+ with "good" rating and it had deep scratches in the aluminum (probably dropped several times) and that one had a Samsung charger. Overall the battery seems to be holding well; 45h charges with 7-8h SOT at least with adaptive brightness on. Basically it lasts me about 2 days. Performance is good but I didn't push it or test it to see if it holds with the benchmarks.
