如果您正在阅读本文，您可能一直在思考如何购买翻新的笔记本电脑、手机或其他设备——以及在哪里购买。这篇文章讨论了购买翻新设备时要记住的事情。
翻新和二手笔记本电脑的区别
首先要了解翻新和使用过的小工具之间的区别：笔记本电脑、智能手机或任何其他电子产品。翻新(Refurbished)就像新的一样，可能有一些划痕。二手物品是旧物品。一个人可以以较低的价格出售他维修过的笔记本电脑，但由于他已经使用了很多年，所以不能保证这个小工具不会很快消亡。这解释了二手与翻新的笔记本电脑和手机。
除了为您提供几乎全新的小工具外，翻新意味着一些保修。它的保修可能与新笔记本电脑（或其他小工具）不匹配，但您肯定知道这些部件是新的。对于未翻新的旧物品，您无法获得任何保修。
购买笔记本电脑或智能手机等翻新商品时的保修
虽然它不会像新产品那样多，但翻新的笔记本电脑和手机包含保修。对于笔记本电脑和智能手机，保修期最长可达六个月。在 eBay 等上使用过的旧智能手机不提供任何保修。新(New)的和翻新的都有保修。购买二手产品可能意味着用钱赌博。它可能会工作一段时间然后死掉。
什么是“翻新”？什么都被认为是翻新的？
因某些故障而发回经销商的设备由翻新公司或制造商处理。他们检查小工具的所有问题并修复所有问题。他们还将尝试去除设备可能必须使其看起来像新的任何划痕等。
这些由他们的质量监控团队测试。经过认证(Certified)的翻新产品重返市场——与新产品相比，保修期更短，节省了一些成本。
购买翻新前的研究
功课是必要的，在你购买一台翻新的笔记本电脑之前是负担得起的。只需在线和离线查看商品的价格：与不同的经销商。这将帮助您了解是否需要购买翻新的笔记本电脑，或者您是否能负担得起一台新笔记本电脑。
检查翻新设备的条款和条件
适用于翻新笔记本电脑或手机的条款和条件因经销商而异。您需要仔细研究它们以找出以下内容：
- 购买翻新的笔记本电脑可以节省多少钱？
- 比较(Compare)翻新笔记本电脑和新笔记本电脑的成本，看看哪一款符合您的预算
- 查看您要购买的翻新商品的保修；看看它是否太小而无法考虑
- 如果有任何悔过期适用于您想要的笔记本电脑或手机的翻新型号；悔过期是经销商提供的一小段时间，如果您有任何买家的悔意，您可以取消您的订单。在大多数情况下，至少有 3 天的悔恨或冷静期。
- 决定您是想在线购买还是在实体展厅购买。这应该考虑以下因素：您在购买产品之前不会对其进行测试；保修期是否太短；如果您在亚马逊(Amazon)等网站上在线购买，成本效益会更大
- 卖家或制造商是否在您将使用翻新小工具的区域设有维修点。
这几乎总结了您在购买翻新的笔记本电脑或智能手机之前应该了解的所有内容。如果您有任何问题或任何疑问，请发表评论。

Tips to buy refurbished Mobile Phones and Laptops
If you are reading this, you might have been thinking about hоw to buy a rеfurbished laptоp, mobile phone or another device – and where to buy them. This post talks about things to keep in mind when going for a refurbished device.
Difference between refurbished & used laptops
The first thing is to know the difference between refurbished and used gadgets: laptops, smart phones, or any other electronic gadgets. Refurbished is just like new, maybe with a few scratches. Used items are old items. A person can be selling his serviced laptop at a lower price, but since he used it for many years now, there is no guarantee of the gadget not dying soon. This explains used vs. refurbished laptops and mobile phones.
Other than providing you with an almost new gadget, refurbished means some warranty. Its warranty may not match new laptops (or other gadgets), but you sure know that the parts are new. You don’t get any warranty for non-refurbished, old items.
Warranty when you buy refurbished goods like laptops or smartphones
Though it won’t be as much as for a new product, the refurbished laptops and mobile phones include a warranty. In the case of laptops and smartphones, the warranty could go up to six months. Used old smartphones on eBay etc. won’t provide any warranty. New ones and refurbished ones come with a warranty. Going for a used product may mean gambling with the money. It may work for a while and die.
What is “refurbished”? What are all considered refurbished?
Devices sent back to distributors for some fault are taken up by refurbishing companies or the manufacturer. They check out what all is wrong with the gadget and fix everything. They’ll also attempt to remove any scratches etc. that the device may have to make it look new.
These are tested by their quality-monitoring teams. Certified refurbished products go back to market – with a smaller warranty and some good savings compared to the new ones cost.
Research before buying refurbished
Homework is necessary to before you buy a refurbished laptop is affordable. Just check out the price of an item online and offline: with different dealers. That will help you understand if you need to buy a refurbished laptop or if you can afford a new one.
Check the terms & conditions of the refurbished device
The terms and conditions applicable to the refurbished laptop or mobile phone will vary per dealer. You need to study them carefully to find out the following:
- How much are you saving by buying a refurbished laptop?
- Compare costs of refurbished and new laptops to see which one fits into your budget
- Check out the warranty given on the refurbished goods you want to buy; see if it is too small a period to consider
- If there is any remorse period applies to the refurbished model of the laptop or phone you want; remorse period is a small period offered by distributors so that you can cancel your order if you have any buyer’s remorse. In most cases, there is remorse or cooling off period of at least 3 days.
- Decide whether you want to buy it online or in a physical showroom. This should be considered with factors: you don’t get to test a product before you buy it; is the warranty period too small; cost benefits will be larger if you buy online on sites like Amazon
- Whether the seller or manufacturer has a servicing point in the area where you will use the refurbished gadget.
That pretty much sums up what all you should know before you buy a refurbished laptop or smartphone. If you have questions or any inquiries, kindly leave a comment.
