Refurbished iPhone deals: cheapest by model and grade

A refurbished iPhone is worth it if you want to save money and accept some wear. Each phone is tested, repaired where needed, cleaned and graded by how it looks, so you know what to expect.

Warranty is your safety net. Reboxed gives a 12-month warranty on its refurbished phones. If a phone you buy from a business is faulty, you have 30 days to reject it for a full refund.

To see how much you save, compare each model in our live phone table. It ranks the lowest price first and shows the date prices were last checked. Then check the grade and warranty before you pay.

Be realistic about looks. A refurbished phone can show scratches and marks. If you want a flawless phone, a new one may suit you better.

Grades only show cosmetic wear. They cover scratches, marks and other cosmetic wear. Every refurbished phone is still tested and repaired where needed. Each seller names its grades differently, so read what each grade means.
