Refurbished iPhone 11 from Best Buy

After getting the battery replaced in my current iPhone 11 at Best Buy some components failed in the phone. Best Buy said they would get me a replacement iPhone 11 which would be Apple certified refurbished and would be like new. Is this true and does Apple still refurbish iPhone 11's? Hope I wasn't just given a line and that is really true.

iPhone 11, iOS 18

You are getting good information from Best Buy.


Apple keeps an inventory of refurbished phones of older iPhone versions for use as service replacements, so they can usually replace a phone with the same model of iPhone, even if the original phone is 4-5 years old.


You may be surprised to see how "new" your replacement phone really looks.
