Refurbished, used or new: which is right for you?
The three options explained in plain language, with the pros and cons of each.
Choosing between a new, refurbished and used phone mostly comes down to budget and how much risk you are comfortable with.
New
Full manufacturer warranty and the latest model — at the highest price. A new phone loses 30–40% of its value in the first year.
Refurbished
A used phone that has been repaired where needed and tested. Usually comes with a warranty and a fresh or healthy battery.
Used
The lowest price, but quality varies a lot between sellers. Always check the battery health and the account lock.
Our approach
We combine the price of used with the peace of mind of refurbished: every phone is tested, honestly graded and covered by our store warranty.
