Refurb iPhone 15 Models Now Available From Apple's UK Online Store

by

Apple is selling refurbished iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro Max models to its online store in the United Kingdom, around four months after introducing the discounted models in other European countries.

The iPhone 15 is priced starting at £589, while the iPhone 15 Plus is priced starting at £759. The iPhone 15 Pro is priced starting at £869, and the iPhone 15 Pro Max is priced starting at £949. Prices are discounted about 15 percent compared to brand new models.

Several color and storage options are available at the time of writing, but availability may change as Apple updates its inventory. If you're after a specific combination, it's worth checking back regularly to see what's in stock.

Apple first introduced iPhone 15 models in Europe back in January, while the models were added to Apple's refurb stores in the U.S. and Canada this week. Archived webpage snapshots indicate the iPhone 15 models were added to the regional UK online store sometime around late April.

Apple's refurbished iPhones are unlocked, meaning they work with any carrier. Each device comes with a brand-new battery, a fresh outer shell, and a new USB-C cable—making them virtually indistinguishable from brand-new models. Refurbished iPhones also include Apple's standard one-year warranty, with the option to add AppleCare+ for extended coverage.

Refurbished models from Apple are great but the discounts are not as good as other places.

Some of the prices are so close to the iPhone 16 devices that it can be hard to not avoid thinking paying the extra is a no brainer.

The big oddity is Apple continuing to sell iPhone on its main website that don’t support Apple Intelligence.

I hope iOS support is maintained for these devices as has been for past iPhones. Indeed they committed to 5 years of support but I think it maybe only concerned security updates, which is good but full iOS support is what people want (even if not all features are there).

I usually buy from Apple refurb and it’s great. The key is to use Apple recycle, get loads of store credit from that and then buy from refurb & it becomes a great deal.

Having used Apple intelligence for a few months, it’s so suboptimal that I really don’t think anyone would be missing out by buying a 15 returb.

Then in 2-3 years when you’re ready for a new device, Apple intelligence just might be good by then. Maybe.

Hmm not worth it, you can wait a while and places like John Lewis will drop the price of an iPhone by around 100 new. I got an Apple refurb M3 Max MacBook Pro last year when it was still on sale as new too and saved £500, that was worth it. These iPhone refurb prices are very poor.

Yes the discount really is minimal. I’d say if you really want to buy from Apple this is a way to save a little. The peace of mind and quality of these devices from Apple itself are the selling point.
