What is refurbished and is it right for you?

Refurbished means a previously used or returned phone has been professionally inspected: components are tested, worn parts replaced, data wiped and the phone cosmetically refreshed. The result works like new but costs less.

The big difference from second-hand: with second-hand you buy from a private seller, without any checks and without a warranty. Refurbished comes from a professional seller and always includes a warranty.

The grades explained

As good as new

Hardly any signs of use, if at all. At arm's length, indistinguishable from new. The highest grade, the smallest saving.

Light signs of use

Small scratches you'll barely notice in everyday use. The happy medium between price and appearance.

Visible signs of use

Clear scratches or dents on the outside. Works fully, the biggest saving for anyone who isn't bothered about looks.

Warranty & purchase

Every refurbished phone we compare comes with a warranty. The exact term and conditions vary by retailer. You'll see them for each phone, so you can weigh them up in your choice.

Order from the retailer

Warranty sorted

The phone comes with a warranty from the retailer, just like a new one.

Frequently asked questions about refurbished (FAQ)

A refurbished phone is tested and, where needed, fitted with new parts such as the battery. With normal use it lasts about as long as a new one.

Second-hand is usually bought from a private seller, without checks or a warranty. Refurbished comes from a professional seller, is tested and refreshed, and always includes a warranty.

If you want a phone that looks like new, choose grade A. If price matters most and you don't mind small signs of use, grade C offers the biggest saving. Grade B sits in between.
