As soon as Apple releases a new model of iPhone, thousands of used models will hit the market. Apple fans who trade in the latest model or sell their “old” device, and leased iPhones come back and go back on sale. Many of these devices are refurbished and come back on the market as a refurbished model.
If you buy a refurbished iPhone, you save a considerable amount on the purchase of your phone, and you are working sustainably. The old device does not end up on the big pile and the demand for new devices decreases due to all those refurbished devices.
More and more suppliers of refurbished
You will probably also have noticed that there are more and more providers of refurbished smartphones. And in addition to iPhones, you can also buy refurbished iPads, MacBooks, Apple Watches and even AirPods. More and more people are becoming interested in refurbished, which means that the range of refurbished equipment is also growing. You can also easily purchase refurbished washing machines, kitchen appliances and tools.
Refurbished is not necessarily the same as second-hand
Although refurbished is second-hand, there are also clear differences between “normal” second-hand and refurbished. In short, a refurbished product is fully checked, cleaned and repaired where necessary. Any broken or worn parts will be replaced and you can use your device for years to come.
Choose the model that you like or like
If you buy the latest iPhone model, that’s exactly what you get. If you don’t like the straight edges of the latest models, you can go back to one of the models with rounded edges with refurbished. With refurbished you therefore have more choice than you have with just the new devices.
Refurbished iPhone al vanaf 100 euro
You already have a well-functioning refurbished iPhone from about 100 euros. Early iPhone SE series are available from that price point. If you want a little more, you have an iPhone X or earlier for amounts up to about 300 euros. If you have more budget or if you really opt for a newer model, you will still save up to 30%, with which you have an iPhone that is as good as new.
You can also trade in your old device at most refurbished providers. Whether it still works or not, you always get something in return. And this way you save even more on the purchase of your refurbished iPhone.
Please pay attention to the condition before you buy
The price of your refurbished device does not only depend on the model and – as with new devices – the storage capacity. The condition (or state) of the iPhone also plays a role in the selling price. For example, a device that looks like new will of course cost more than one that has clear signs of use.
So when purchasing a refurbished iPhone or any other refurbished device, pay close attention to the condition of the device indicated by the seller.
Warranty: sometimes longer than new
A big advantage of refurbished over second-hand is that you get a warranty on refurbished iPhones. In some cases even longer than the warranty you get on a new one.
Enough reasons to consider a refurbished iPhone for your next purchase.
