What's tong with refurbished? With regular devices, only a few are tested each batch. With refurbished, every single piece of the device should be tested.

Of the test batch of new phones, the standards tested for are much higher.

On refurb, many (but absolutely not all point of contact for chips to PCB) are tested, but require lower tolerances
