This Black Friday we think it would be worth looking at refurbished phones, rather than just brand new ones. They can be a fantastic choice whether you are looking to upgrade your phone, upgrade your child’s phone or get a first phone for a child.

What is a refurbished phone?

Refurbished phones are phones that have been previously returned and then fixed up so that they can be sold again. They are different to used phones as they could have been returned due to a fault which has been fixed or it may have been returned simply because the buyer changed their mind. They have often been used just for a short time or even not at all.

Here are our top reasons for buying a refurbished phone this year:

– Great value for money

Refurbished phones are great value for money. They are always cheaper than brand new phones, always come with a charger and sometimes even have the original box. Refurbished phones are a way to easily save money at what will always be an expensive time of the year.

– As good as new

Unlike traditional used phones, refurbished phones have been cleaned and buffed whilst also fixing any imperfections. They are graded to let you know whether they have anything like chips or scratches on them but so many are as good as new. Many are store returns, taken back within the initial cooling off period and some have not even been used, just taken out of the box before the original buyer changed their mind.

Refurbished phones always come with a warranty so you can be sure that they are up to scratch, working perfectly and will carrying working for a good while to come. And if not, there’s the warranty to fall back on – just like with a brand new phone. Refurbished phones come with that added peace of mind.

– Kinder to the environment

As refurbished phones reuse electronics it means that the original components aren’t needing to be made again. This makes refurbished phones a more sustainable and environmentally friendly choices compared to buying a brand new phone. Like with anything, reusing will always be a greener choice than buying something new.

Refurbished phones are a great choice this Black Friday – and any time you’re in the market for a new phone. It always feels good to save money and even more so when you can help the environment too. So make sure you look at refurbished phones next time you’re phone shopping – I can guarantee you’ll be surprised at how much you can save.
