YMMV, obviously, but I ordered two of these and both are unlocked. I have not yet activated the Boost lines that came with these.

Note that one has a 3rd party battery, as I got the warning, and the other has battery health of 83%. I'm guessing they replace the battery if health is less than 80%.

I don't think there was a color option; both phones I got are black.

I set up both phones on wi-fi before inserting a sim card and checked the sim status in the settings. Then I inserted a non-Boost sim to test. I tested with Cricket and Mint sims and both worked fine.

The bodies of each had minor scuffs and scratches, with the screens in very good condition. Screens also appeared to be original, as the "true tone" option is available on both. Face ID worked fine on both as well.

They came in plain white boxes with a Boost sticker on top and had an OEM usb-a lightning cable with a generic charging brick. (if it's not an OEM cable, it sure looks and feels like one)

$100 is a killer deal for a used, unlocked iPhone Xr, and this one includes 3 months of coverage.

Metro deal requires porting over from another carrier, also need to go to store can't order online,and most stores add extra fees like activation/tax on original price, meanwhile this deal can be ordered online, includes 3 months of service, and you don't need to port

I agree with you that it's a 5 year old phone and anyone looking to start a brand new plan (with all the incentives out there) should absolutely get a newer model.

My daughter uses an XR and there isn't anything she can't do on it and I even used my old XR for over a month when I was in the process of moving jobs. The camera is nowhere near as good as the 12/13/14 and it was slower at times, but compared to a 5 year old android model the XR is amazing and fully supported by Apple for at least another year or so.

Got mine Friday, had some scratches on the case and 83% battery life but original screen, original battery, and when tossing it in a case next to my iPhone 14 Pro they both look "modern".

Thanks to everyone who posted on this deal. Took a chance it was a great $50!!!

Perhaps the setting on your browser makes it invisible, but the link is embedded in the first two words of the sentence: Boost Mobile has iPhone XR (renewed, red) + 3 month...

Here's the same link: https://deals.boostmobile.com/myp...lm-02-mybm
Those who bought more than one, did you have to use the same email address or a different address?

Since the iPhone XR I received seems to have a replaced screen (no True Tone), Apple will reject it for trade-in. It also has a battery life of 79%.

Anyone tried returning a phone to Boost? What was your experience? Painful? Smooth?

Got my 2 XR refurbs. Both screens were original screens with tru tone. 93% battery life on one and 89% battery life on the other XR. Separate orders of about $25 each. Ported both the numbers out already to metro pcs for the $66 brand new iPhone 11s each OTD. Now to trade these out for something better.

How is it outdated if it has the same notch, face, recognition, and the same exact operating system, that works great, four basic daily usage. And has a year plus of updates left.

Would like to know how it's outdated compared to 11 or 12. And I prefer the rounded design too
