Which smartphone would you buy with a $200 USD budget?
An iPhone 8/8 plus, because every NEW android phone here in the USA sucks ass for that price range
Note 8/note 9
poco x3
Redmi note 8
Or
Mi 10i

Correct title: rich man realizes not everyone are rich
is**
I don't think that's the correct title. I know many people who aren't rich, they don't go for refurb iPhones because that's a risk, you might potentially trash 200 dollars on a second hand phone. They go for cheaper android phones, usually by Chinese manufacturers like the ones under BBK electronics. The only ones who go for these refurb iPhones are people who care too much about the social status even though they themselves do not fall in that social class who can afford them, so it absolutely makes sense why Lew is so intrigued by the fact that such a market exists.
@Hareem Ahmad Cant 😔
@@xavierazad my man is on fire 🔛🔥
If your salty that people actually put some effort in there life and get money, then get off your chair and do something
Buying an iPhone 8 renewed it's like buying a Pandora's box, you'll never know what are you going to get
It's like all of the iPhone products
Exactly!😂
Is that a Forrest Gump reference?
@@demaurimitchell3167 love that movie
Why not chocolates
His verdict: its not that bad
My verdict: its actually very good if you are on a budget
Yeah, I agree. That phone is in good condition, and it's a fine phone. You're not going to do better getting a new phone for $200, and it's also a great phone for a kid.
It’s actually amazing man, I got a 11 PM in 99.8% physical condition, 96% battery and everything works flawlessly, All that for 711$ which is amazing for back in 2020
Cats out here buying a brand new phone to put it in that condition anyways and talk down on renewed phones
It's July 2021 and I'm still considering iphone 8 plus (over the 8) one of the best smartphones to buy
It's very good only if u love apple so much to neglect other budget flagship killers and want to show off apple then u r right
@@nicoerramuspe2304 i wouldn’t recommend that the phone only has literally 1 or 2 more years left of support u might asw go for a newer model

This feels like if a rich person worked a 9-5 job for a day.
People who work a 9-5 can do better than a trashy refurbished phone lol... This is more so for homeless or ghetto people, or kids.
I meant it more as like if a rich person worked at a McDonald's for a day: "woah this is what a mop feels like?" Or "so this is how one makes food without a butler..." the way lew was inspecting that phone, it seemed like he was discovering the poor life lol

@@thefrog9119 well in the age of Covid-19 touch ID is far superior.
@@prafulsai8020 yep you're right sir, for present days it's more easy to use Touch iD. I don't understand why Apple did not bring it back on the iPhone 12, like they put it on the new iPad Air, especially during this pandemic hard time.
@@thefrog9119 I believe it's because Apple only changes their design once in 3ish years. If they brought back touch ID they'd have to
1) Acknowledge it was a bad idea to remove it.
2) Stick to it until the next design change.
They played it safe and didn't bring it back and I believe it was a good call.

Lew is getting out of touch with reality at this point. He acts shocked that people buy iPhone 8’s, like it’s literally only a couple years old. Not everyone buys a brand new phone every year.
He's a fcking millionare, of course it's a shock to him... I don't even have a 100K USD in my name and it still is a shock to me...

@@joexganyuh1699 Because some people like iOS more than Android like me
Nobody buys a brand new phone every year, but barely anybody buys a 4 year old phone too? It makes absolute sense in being shocked by it, the phone is like half a decade old at this point, the fact that people are buying half a decade phone in 2021 is shocking for anyone.
@@joexganyuh1699 androids are becoming so much more expensive even the budget phones are 400$ minimum

I don't know one person that buys Used or renewed phones. Most people just get the new phone on a plan so they don't have to pay all at once or they just go for a cheaper phone.

My mom had a 3.5 year old iPhone 7 that I now have just lying around, it's around 86% capacity left. She now has my old XR and I used it equally as long, and was definitely way harder on the device overall. Yet somehow, that one is STILL at 89% on the battery. So I wouldn't be surprised if this regular 8 still had its original battery considering it was 91%. The OG owner likely just used it for around a year or so, and traded it in/upgraded to the X, XS, or 11.

So I bought this exact phone from a seller through Walmart for about the same price and my reasoning was this: I didn’t have dslr camera money and honestly spending money on just a webcam seemed absurd.

Honestly.. I think saving up for the Iphone SE is a better investment since it has newer software and will definitely work better.
Agreed!
It’s going to be able to run the same software, it has older hardware due to the old chip set.
But the small battery 😭
Spend 50 bucks more and just get the xr
It runs the same software and has the older hardware. The only thing it has better than the 8 is the A13 chip with a improved neural engine that’s what gives the SE more features that the 8 doesn’t have

The phone is great, simple as that. Looks like he received a fantastic unit that would be fine for anyone to use. It is madness to spend a thousand bucks for a phone.
especially when you have other better more viable options
The price is relative to the hardware, quality, release and engineering that goes into the device. The iPhone 13 Pro Max cost $1100 because its basically the top of the line smartphone right now. 10 hour screen on time and 3 great 4k cameras. Of course its expensive but its not mad unless it wasn't worth the price. Same goes for the Galaxy S22 Ultra.
@@nitroxylictv Regardless, it is madness to spend that much for a phone. I'll let someone else take the hit on price, and swoop in for their refurbished unit after they get bored with it in a year. Sent to you from my refurbished Pixel 2, that's great.
It could be worth the price if I was the real owner of the thing! They will brick it within a 5-6y life span with their software tricks. Always pretending that the device can't keep up with today's technology. The fact is that they intentionally downgrade the previous generation in every iteration of iOS and then argue it's not reliable and they stop supporting it to sell you a brand new device. And here we are, fools, buying a brand new device every other year to satisfy our own emptiness 😑
The thing with renewed or used phones sold in bulk is that each one will be different and one might have more or less scratches or dead pixels than the other one. It's a gamble, unlike new or open box phones which the chances of it being broken or damaged more than another is waaay less.

OMG!!! This is so freaking funny hahaha! I laughed a lot!.. 😂
While i dont even know wth is touch id...
iPhone 8 is the newest phone I’ve ever owned 😂😂 I refuse to get a newer model because I like the home button. It took forever to accept that the charging and earphones have the same input 😂
Lew: "Stop being poor"
I have a different twist on it, i kinda like that people buy cheap stuff, it means prople have a sense of sound economic decisionmaking. If the best selling car would be like a $50000 tesla.. i would worry about us being in a debt bubble.
I kinda like buying used stuff in general, saving the world, boosting my budget etc, but actually not in phones, battery decay and rapid advancement is the problem. Like a new phone for $400 is better in many ways than a used like s10 for like $400, better battery, larger screen, longer support time etc, why go old and uncertain when you can go new and certain? But i did have a iphone 4s for like 7 years, so im kinda done with old phones and are willing to spend some to uphold that, i guess.

Is renewed the same as refurbished? I've bought tons of stuff refurbished and never had any problems.
Isn’t an *“old fingerprint remnant”* just a fingerprint?
It’s really touching seeing Lew checking out what us poor people are up to
love how this could have all been in one video instead of pt 2.....
Hook it up to 3u tools to see if the parts got changed
Hi, could you please show us some charing stations for multiple Apple products including iPad Pro?
That wrapping is literally how we ship it out from T-Mobile as a trade-in...
Forget about the iphone.. I'm just too excited to see how this review video is recorded. The camera quality that you guys have is just amazing until the fingerprint patch is clearly visible
13:42 well i have an iPhone 6 in my cupboard I used it for a good 3 years and it was still on 92% battery health with the orignal battery and it was my primary phone
Cap
I haven’t gotten a new iPhone In years I always get these, it’s not quite as fun opening the box but if the phone is not damaged and works good then it’s the exact same
