The original I-phones have been essentially unusable for a number of years now. When IOS-4 was distributed it was not compatible. from that point, every app on my original phone ceased working as soon as they were hit with "Upgrades"

My original i-phone became no more than a candy bar Nokia...good only for calls and texts and low res photos.

Apples total abandonment (They wont even repair them) of the original I-Phone is the reason I never bought another Apple product and never will.

Lazada.com does sell refurbished 4's and 5's.

Yeah, not sure WHY the OP wrote, "for originaI iphone refurbished" in the topic title.

I also don't think they'll find actual 'refurbished' phones for sale outside of Apple's distribution channel.

More likely the unofficial local shops that carry older models will be those iPhones that are not 'refurbished but actually 'used', or have been 'left behind' by their IMEI status still shows as good on apple's activation authentication server. Some care should always be exercised to verify the IMEI is clean when purchasing from this other 'market'.

You have to ask, what do they mean by 'refurbished'. (It helps if the seller spells the word correctly).

How was it 'refurbished, and who did it?

Did it get

a new battery?

new front glass

new outer case

thoroughly tested and pass QC for a 'refurbished' product?

Otherwise, just call it a used iPhone
