Is it worth buying a refurbished iPhone?

Yes. You get the same Apple hardware, the same iOS experience, and the same access to every app you already use, at up to 50% less than the new price. Every device on Back Market passes a 100-point professional inspection and comes in four cosmetic grades, so you can pick the condition that works for your budget. Performance isn't part of the trade-off.

Are refurbished iPhones safe to buy?

Buying a refurbished iPhone from Back Market is safe. Every seller must meet a strict quality charter, and devices are monitored through secret shopping and onsite visits to refurbishment centres. If something isn't right after purchase, you're covered by a 12-month seller contractual warranty and a 30-day money-back guarantee.

How long do refurbished iPhones last?

As long as the same model bought new, assuming the battery is in good shape. Battery health is the variable to watch: Premium grade devices come with a battery at 90% capacity minimum, using genuine manufacturer parts. The higher the grade, the more charge cycles you've got ahead of you.

Do refurbished iPhones receive iOS updates?

Yes, exactly like new ones. iOS updates come directly from Apple and are completely unaffected by refurbished status. As long as your model is still supported by Apple, it updates on the same schedule as any other iPhone. No extra steps, no exceptions.

Can I trade in my old iPhone when buying refurbished?

Yes. Back Market's trade-in tool gives you a quote in around 2 minutes. If you're happy with the offer, you ship your phone for free and receive cash straight to your bank account. It's a straightforward way to take more off the price of your next device.

Is buying a refurbished iPhone good for the environment?

Significantly. Choosing a refurbished iPhone over a new one generates 92% less greenhouse gas emissions: roughly 77 kg of CO2e per device, based on an ADEME study. You also produce 89% less e-waste. Since 2014, Back Market customers have collectively helped avoid 2.2 million tonnes of CO2e. Your upgrade doesn't have to cost the planet anything.

Are refurbished iPhones unlocked to all UK networks?

The majority of refurbished iPhones on Back Market are SIM-free and unlocked. That means you're not tied to any carrier: you can pair the phone with whatever SIM, plan, or rolling contract suits you. It's one of the practical upsides of buying refurbished over a carrier-locked new phone. Check the individual listing to confirm the unlock status before purchasing, as it can vary by device.

Back Market Turned a “Refurbished” iPhone 12 Into My Daily Driver—And I’m Genuinely Blown Away I’ll be honest: when people hear “refurbished,” they usually expect compromises. Scuffs. Battery anxiety. That one annoying flaw you can’t unsee. This iPhone 12 from Back Market completely shattered that stereotype. I ordered a Product (RED) iPhone 12, 128GB, and what arrived felt less like a secondhand phone and more like Apple quietly sent me a brand-new unit on the side. Condition: The phone arrived in exceptional condition. The glass is clean, the frame is flawless, and if you told me this device had never been used before, I’d believe you without hesitation. No scratches, no dents, no “refurbished tells.” It looks premium because it is premium. Performance: This is where the iPhone 12 still flexes hard. The A14 Bionic chip is absurdly smooth—apps open instantly, multitasking is effortless, and everything from social media to photo editing runs without a hiccup. This phone doesn’t feel like it’s “keeping up.” It feels like it’s leading. Display & Design: The OLED display is gorgeous. Deep blacks, vibrant colors, and razor-sharp clarity that makes content pop. The flat-edge design still looks modern and feels solid in the hand. And the Product (RED) finish? Stunning. It’s bold, clean, and turns heads without trying. Battery & Reliability: Battery life has been excellent for daily use—calls, streaming, browsing, and content creation. This is the kind of phone you trust to get you through the day without babysitting a charger. The Back Market Experience: This is where the real magic happens. Back Market didn’t just sell me a phone—they delivered confidence. Clear grading, fast shipping, eco-friendly impact, and a device that exceeded expectations in every way. It’s rare to feel like you got more than you paid for, but that’s exactly what happened here. Final Thoughts: If you’re on the fence about refurbished tech, let this be the review that pushes you over. This iPhone 12 proves that smart buying doesn’t mean settling—it means winning. Back Market has officially earned my trust, and this phone has earned its place as my go-to device. This isn’t just a good deal. It’s proof that premium tech, sustainability, and performance can coexist—and absolutely thrive. Highly recommended. No hesitation. No regrets.

Phone arrived very quickly. Absolutely perfect. Only thing I had to do was change its location from USA to UK but that was no issue, it was just in device settings (just meant all my auto fill options were USA choices for phone number etc, just factory settings, easy fix) phone is perfect, as described. I actually can’t believe it was so pristine. I always ended up getting a new contract phone when I wanted an upgrade but my partner suggested Backmarket to try. I was very hesitant going for a refurbished phone as it’s not what I’m used to. But not only is the phone perfect, just like brand new, I was able to trade in my previous IPhone 14 Pro. I was given an offer, and expected it to pay out a good bit less as it seemed to too good to be true. But no, got the offer accepted and it just meant technically the price of my phone was incredible. It was very easy to trade in. And I love my new phone.

Coming from someone who has never bought a phone second hand, I decided to upgrade from my Samsung S21 to IPhone 15 Pro Max and I’m not going to buy a new phone again. The phone I bought with “good” quality, battery is 86% health but with no scratches, dents or ANY faults, absolutely perfect. I would suggest just researching who the refurbish company is that does the phone and if they’re good or not. Worth it.

Why choose a refurbished iPhone over a second-hand one?

Second-hand iPhones are sold as-is, in whatever condition the previous owner left them. There's no guarantee the battery holds a charge or that basic features work as expected.

Refurbished iPhones are different. They've been professionally inspected, cleaned, repaired where needed, and certified before resale. That's the real difference between a second hand iPhone and a refurbished one: accountability, not luck. Read our full breakdown in What is the difference between refurbished and used electronics?

Why buy a refurbished iPhone instead of a new one?

Choosing a refurbished iPhone over a new one avoids 92% less greenhouse gas emissions: roughly 77 kg of CO2e per device, based on the ADEME study. You also generate 89% less e-waste per device. Since 2014, Back Market customers have collectively helped avoid 2.2 million tons of CO2e, based on the same methodology.

Beyond the planet, you're saving real money. Second hand iPhones might seem tempting on price, but cheap iPhones from Back Market come with quality guarantees that a private resale simply can't match. Read more in our article on the environmental impact of refurbished tech.

The grade tells you what the phone looks like on the outside. Not how fast it runs, not how the camera performs, not whether it holds signal. Just cosmetics.

Every device passes the same quality inspection regardless of grade, and ships with a 12-month seller contractual warranty. Here's what each grade actually means:

Premium: virtually no signs of use on screen or body. Only genuine manufacturer parts. Battery at 90% capacity minimum. The closest a refurbished phone gets to new.
Excellent: almost no signs of wear. Body may have very light micro-scratches, but only visible closer than 8 inches away. Screen is scratch-free.
Good: light signs of wear. Body may show micro-scratches, but nothing visible at arm's length (about 20 inches). Screen is scratch-free.
Fair: visible signs of wear. Body may have some scratches or dents that don't affect performance. Screen may show faint marks when the display is on.

Whatever grade you pick, it runs exactly as it should.

What comes with a refurbished iPhone?

Every certified refurbished iPhone sold on Back Market includes a compatible charging cable. To reduce e-waste, wall plugs and headphones are not included. Your purchase also comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee and a 12-month seller contractual warranty as standard. The charging cable is covered by that same warranty.

How to get cheap iPhones for even less

Trade in your old smartphone before you buy. Back Market's Trade-in tool gives you an offer in around 2 minutes. If you're happy with it, ship your device for free and get the cash straight to your bank account. Easy way to knock more off an already lower price.

Is Back Market reliable?
