Hey guys, I’m looking into buying a refurbished Google Pixel 5 (I have couple of options between amazon and other stores), however I’m not entirely sure about the longevity of a refurbished phone.

Positive reviews are often left by people who just bought the phone, but most of the negative reviews I found were from people who used it for more than couple of months and it concerns me.

Price is good, I’m looking specifically into a Pixel 5 because of the size which is much smaller than my Galaxy Note 9 that I find really uncomfortable to use.

Thank you!

    I’d know if someone had any access to my phone

    This is really a bold claim. How or why makes you so sure of that?

    If the attacker/app manages to get some application running in the background as root, how would you know that they had access to your phone?
