Refurbished Apple Deals

Refurbished Apple products you can rely on

Buying refurbished Apple is one of the easiest ways to get the kit you want without paying full price. Every device that comes through The iOutlet is inspected, cleaned, fully tested and wiped of any previous data before it’s listed. If something doesn’t meet our standard, it’s repaired or it doesn’t go on sale.

We then grade each device on how it looks. A+ Pristine is as close to new as refurbished gets, A Excellent may show the odd faint mark, B Good has light signs of use, and C Average has more visible wear at a lower price. The grade is about cosmetic condition, so you can pick the balance of looks and price that suits you.

Which Apple device is right for you?

If you’re after a phone, our refurbished iPhone range runs from the latest models right back to older ones that make great starter phones for kids or a solid backup. Watching the budget? Take a look at our iPhones under £100.

For tablets, it helps to start with what you’ll use it for. We’ve grouped iPads suitable for kids and iPads for work or school so you don’t have to work it out model by model.

Choosing a Mac can feel like a bigger decision, so our guide on which Mac is right for you walks through the options. You’ll find everyday laptops in our refurbished MacBook Air range, alongside the full Mac collection. There’s also plenty of choice in refurbished Apple Watches if you want something for fitness or everyday notifications.

Refurbished or second hand?

A second hand Apple device is sold as it is, usually with no checks and no cover if something goes wrong. A refurbished one has been through a full inspection and test first, and with us it’s backed by a 12-month warranty. It’s the difference between hoping a device is fine and knowing it is.

FAQs

No. The iOutlet is an independent UK retailer of refurbished tech and isn’t part of Apple. We refurbish and sell Apple devices ourselves, and every one comes with our own 12-month warranty.

Is it worth buying refurbished Apple products?

For most people, yes. You get the same Apple experience for less than the new price, it’s tested before it reaches you, and the warranty covers you if anything goes wrong. It’s also a more sustainable way to buy.
