The inside bottom of the box also had a spot that looked like something had been glued in there and ripped out previously, and the cable and charging block were not insulated in any way and were just shaking around loose in the box

Crappy aftermarket cable that appears used, inner packaging that felt thoughtless

I would be nice to get a new cable to replace the defective cable.

The cable that came with the phone is not working since day 1.

I didn't want to return the iphone just for the defective cable

Everything works as it should.

Works as if I got it straight from AT&T

My phone came in a day early and everything works as if brand new

Works like brand new, was expecting something wrong with the screen or battery or the phone itself being slow but it works as if i had just bought it from the apple store
