I got a refurb recently, and Apple is now shipping them with the "no tamper" pentabular screws instead of philips head screws.

Just a heads up if anyone plans on swapping out the back cover to white.
 
Got my second replacement today because my volume buttons stopped working after I dropped it. This is my third iPhone. My first replacement was a 5K and it was perfect this replacement's first 2 digits start with 61 and it's no different than the 5K. Only thing now is that my screen doesn't have the yellow tint to it but that didn't bother before. My point....refurb or no refurb they are all the same to me. My replacements have been because Of me and not just something that went wrong for no reason.
