Dang, I have an S4 I need to off load. Oh well.
## Samsung Certified Renewed vs. Amazon Renewed
When comparing **Samsung's Certified Renewed** devices to those from **Amazon Renewed**, several advantages make Samsung's direct offering stand out, especially for buyers who value quality assurance, warranty, and genuine parts.
### Key Benefits of Samsung Certified Renewed
- **Thorough Refurbishment Process**
- Devices undergo a *147-point inspection*, led by Samsung engineers[1][2][3].
- Only *genuine Samsung parts* are used for repairs, ensuring optimal compatibility and performance[1][3].
- **Brand-New Battery**
- Every device includes a new Samsung-certified battery, ensuring maximum longevity and reliability[4][1][5][2][3].
- Many third-party refurbishers (including some on Amazon) may only guarantee batteries over 80% health, but not necessarily new ones[5][6].
- **One-Year Manufacturer Warranty**
- Samsung Certified Renewed devices include a full *one-year warranty* directly from Samsung — the same as a new device[1][2][3][7].
- Amazon Renewed typically offers a *90-day warranty*, with only "Renewed Premium" select items getting a one-year warranty, and not all sellers participate in that program[6][7][8][9][10].
- **Guaranteed OEM Parts**
- Only original OEM parts are used, whereas Amazon Renewed allows qualified third-party refurbishers who may use equivalent (but not original) replacement parts[1][7].
- **Like-New Packaging and Accessories**
- Devices come in a new box with a starter kit as standard, enhancing the unboxing experience[1][2].
- **Latest Software Updates**
- Devices are updated to the latest available Samsung software and security patches[3].
- **Trade-In & Eco-Friendly Commitment**
- Samsung often offers higher trade-in values and clear sustainability commitments, refurbishing old phones for a circular economy[4][11].
### Important Notes
- **Amazon Renewed** is still a reputable source for well-inspected and tested devices, and Amazon's satisfaction guarantee allows returns within the warranty period[8][9][10]. However, the refurbishment and warranty experience can vary between third-party sellers.
- **Samsung Certified Renewed** usually costs more, but buyers commonly cite *peace of mind*, *better battery life*, and *factory-level refurbishment* as strong reasons for the premium[5][7].
**Summary:**
Samsung's Certified Renewed program offers tighter quality control, a guaranteed new battery, a longer warranty, and genuine Samsung parts throughout. Amazon Renewed is a good value, but its warranty is shorter, refurbishing is performed by various sellers, and batteries and parts may not always be new or OEM[1][2][3][6][7][8][9][10].

Yeah I've heard stories like that from other buyers. Lucky for me I've done at least 10 trade-ins and had zero issues in the last 5 years.

This explains renewed in detail. I bought two S23 renewed phones and both were the same as new. No signs of wear anywhere.
