Price guide

Second-hand iPhone prices in the UK

What a used iPhone is being listed for across UK marketplaces at the moment, and what to look at before you pay.

What sellers are asking right now

We don't have enough recent iPhone listings to give a reliable price yet, and we would rather say so than guess. Save a search and Snaffla will watch for them and show each one against similar listings.

What to check before you buy

  • The exact model and storage size, because they change the price a lot.
  • That it is not locked to the seller's iCloud account or a network: ask them to sign out and show it at the setup screen.
  • The battery health, which is in Settings, and whether the screen or camera glass is cracked.
  • That the seller will let you check it works before you pay, and gives you the IMEI so you can check it is not reported lost or stolen.

What moves the price

  • Newer models sit well above older ones, and within one model a larger storage size is priced higher, so a model's usual range can be wide.
  • A battery in poor health or a cracked screen lowers the price.
  • Phones sold as faulty, locked or for parts are far cheaper and are a different thing to a working phone.
