    Ordered for an elderly lady who is having hearing problems. Condition of the phone used with a few scratches on framework (which it stated on the website) Quick delivery even over the Easter break. Highly recommended!

Reborn vs. brand new

Here’s what you help prevent on average by choosing a reborn smartphone over a brand new one.

77.3 kg of carbon

That’s like driving an old banger from London to Edinburgh and back.

6.3 oz of e-waste

That’s around the weight of a baseball.

537.1 lbs of raw materials

That's like 20 dogs digging in your yard for a week.

77,000 litres of water

That's like running a faucet for 3 days
