Near-mint condition. Micro-scratches only visible under direct light. Full functionality, excellent battery health. Best for premium retail.
Light visible scratches on body. Screen pristine or near-pristine. Fully functional. Ideal mid-tier stock for retail and online resale.
Visible scratches and moderate wear on body and potentially screen. All functions operational. Suited for value-segment resellers.
Heavy cosmetic wear, possible cracked glass. Device functions. Popular for refurbishment factories and parts harvesting operations.
