WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT FROM REFURBISHED?

You want to know what you are buying, especially if you want to order online. According to our quality guarantee there is only one choice in technical terms: Premium Refurbished. How your device looks , you can still choose yourself. That is why we give on this page a description as clear as possible about what you can expect from the appearance of a refurbished device.

We use star ratings for this. This way you can perfectly determine your choice. We therefore find clear and honest communication to our customers very important.

We apply the strictest standards in the field of evaluation of the appearance of refurbished devices. This applies to iPhones, iPads, MacBooks, iMacs, laptops and other models.

As New A refurbished product with a 5-star rating looks almost as new. You can expect that you will see almost no traces of use on a refurbished iPhone, for example. The screen has no visible scratches, the casing looks excellent and has no dents or scratches. Very exceptionally, you may see a very light trace of use if you hold an iPhone up to the light, for example. You choose a 5-star refurbished device if you want your new device to look excellent. There may be light traces of use on the bottom of a MacBook, laptop or iMac, but not on the "visible" parts.

Very good. A refurbished product with a 4-star rating still looks great. The difference with a 5-star rating is that there may be one or more small inconspicuous scratches visible on, for example, the screen or the casing. Sometimes one small mini dent can give an otherwise perfect device a 4-star rating instead of a 5-star rating. Choosing a 4-star rating means that you are choosing a refurbished smartphone, tablet or laptop that simply looks very good. Moreover, you benefit from it, as they are priced even cheaper.

Good. A refurbished product with a 3-star rating has more obvious signs of use. Scratches on the screen and/or on the casing. Small dents or dents can also occur. Of course, the device is 100% technically in order. Here you know that you are getting extra benefit because the device already shows more signs of use.

Features: Dual or quad-core processors, often without hyper-threading (although some models do have it), lower clock speeds compared to i5 and i7.
Performance: Suitable for everyday tasks such as browsing, word processing and light multimedia.

2. Intel Core i5

Uses: Mainstream computers for a wide range of tasks.
Features: Quad-core or hex-core processors, usually with hyper-threading in laptop models, higher clock speeds than i3.
Performance: Good all-round performance for gaming, multitasking and heavier applications.

3. Intel Core i7

Use: High-end computers for demanding users.
Features: Hex-core or octa-core processors, with hyper-threading, higher clock speeds and larger cache memories.
Performance: Excellent for heavy multitasking, video editing, and gaming at high settings.

4. Intel Core i9

Usage: Enthusiasts and professionals who need maximum performance.
Features: Octa-core or deca-core processors and higher, with hyper-threading, very high clock speeds and large cache memories.
Performance: Ideal for high-intensity tasks such as 3D rendering, scientific work and high-end gaming.

Apple MacBook CPUs

Apple has introduced its own line of ARM-based processors for MacBooks in recent years, known as the Apple Silicon chips. Here is an overview of the main Apple Silicon chips and their differences:

VAT Class

Items may be subject to the Normal VAT scheme or to the VAT on the Margin scheme.

Standard VAT Scheme

There is a 21% (depending on country) VAT levied on an article. This is included in the price. For VAT-liable customers, this VAT is deductible from their VAT return.

What is VAT on the Margin?

There is no deductible VAT on products that are sold under VAT over the Margin. For consumers and non-VAT payers this does not matter that much. As a VAT payer it is usually more interesting to purchase a product according to the normal VAT scheme. However, the amount is 100% deductible as a cost.

For products with VAT on the Margin, an "M" is mentioned at the end of the description. The correct legal text is mentioned on the invoice.

Choose SIM card

All smartphones are equipped with an eSIM (a digital SIM card). Recent models are sometimes only equipped with an eSIM (eSIM only) and therefore do not have a physical Nano SIM. Depending on your operator, it is important to make the right choice. Depending on your smartphone, 4G or 5G is supported.

SIM/eSIM

These smartphones are equipped with both a physical Nano SIM card and an eSIM and are therefore suitable for all operators.

eSim Only

Smartphones equipped with only an eSIM are not suitable for all operators. Here is an overview per country.
