Well, I know mine wasn't a refurb, because it was in the factory sealed packaging, and the clear protective tape stuff was on everything... I was actually pleasantly surprised. Plus, it was literally about a two-month old console according to the manufactures date, and I doubt that one that new was being refurbished.

As for the "graphical" upgrade, I'm not really sure. Although, I think that the games load a lot cleaner & more efficiently now. Maybe because of the Falcon setup in it now? I'm not really sure.

Either way, it was a pretty good way to make me feel better about having it red-ring. It lessened the sting quite a bit.

 

His replacement was defo a refurb but it could easily have been a newer model to the one he previously had hence his claim of better graphics, He also said loading times had improved a little too.

RROD is not nice , But to get a better machine back softens the blow a little huh.
