Interesting... And hope this rolls out to UK
In a Keyword post, Google announced the start of its Certified Refurbished Phone program for U.S. consumers. With the program's debut, the company says consumers can browse through a selection of refurbished Pixel 7, 7 Pro, 6, 6 Pro, and 6a devices at the Google Store - In its listing, the Pixel 7 Pro runs for $629 (a $270 drop) while the Pixel 6 Pro goes for $339 (a $260 drop).
@ecksmc I've never bought a "refurbished" phone, because the battery will have degraded. Pixels are great because of their long-term support, but typically their battery life is only mediocre out of the box.
@Coctaanatis most refurbished devices ive purchased are actually as good as new
They are devices that people purchase then return within the 14 day limit - most are but not all - ive purchased loadsa refurbished devices over the years from big companies who resell them on eBay
Most companies will tell you if they are returns within the 14 day limit if you ask
So, battery shouldn't be a big issue if that is the case
