As you may have guessed, we’re talking about a refurbished purchase but not the “typical” kind. Instead of fretting over the origin, condition, and warranty of refurbished units sold by e-tailers like Woot or various eBay merchants, you’re going to know exactly where these discounted bad boys come from, how they look, how they work, and for how long they’re covered.
Said process includes a “thorough” cleaning and technical inspection guaranteeing “full functionality”, as well as complete repackaging with all “appropriate manuals, cables”, and a new box. In short, you will almost certainly not be able to distinguish your refurbished HomePod 2 from a costlier brand-new unit, both at first glance and after properly testing its functionality.
