Almost no signs of wear. The body may have very light micro-scratches. For items with screens, the screen will have no scratches.

Good, but I didn't realise it was so big. The lens is very bulky even though it's not a crazy lens. Otherwise well reconditioned, i.e. functional and in very good condition.

It's great, like new! Although I decided to give it for Christmas, because I'm used to the one I currently have (IPhone), but aesthetically I love the Xiaomi Redmi 5 Gold! 😍 I have made a good buy.

Awaiting a suitable replacement. The device had not been properly refurbished and was still linked to the previous user. It has been returned for correction of the error. Given the setback expectations of a successful transaction have been greatly reduced. We will see the final outcome.
