Why did my iPhone 13 Pro Max have an screen protector on it when I got it brand new out of the box?

THE SCREEN PROTECTOR THAT WAS ON MY IPHONE 13 PRO MAX HAD BLACK LINING AROUND IT like the normal iphone bezels AND A BLACK MESH OR SMALL NOTCH COVER THAT PROTECTED THE SPEAKER ON THE DISPLAY

i just wanna know if when they were not discontinued and was selling if they had that screen protector over it pre installed

Who knows what you bought. It wasn't new, it was used. Apple doesn't preinstall screen protectors on new iPhones. So whoever owned the phone before you bought it put one on it. If the phone was refurbished, they did a really bad job. A battery health of 86% is not good either. Your money, but I would return the phone for a full refund.


If you want to buy a refurbished iPhone, buy one directly from Apple, where it will come with a new screen and new battery and a full one year warranty --> Certified Refurbished Products - Apple
