Ex-UK vs New vs Refurbished

10-Point Checklist Before You Pay

1. Settings → Battery → Battery Health: aim for 80% or higher.
2. Settings → General → About: check the model and storage match the listing.
3. Make sure Find My iPhone is OFF and the phone is not iCloud-locked.
4. Dial *#06# and compare the IMEI with the box and settings.
5. Test Face ID (or Touch ID).
6. Test all cameras, flash and the front camera.
7. Check the screen for dead spots and "unknown part" messages.
8. Test calls, speaker, microphone and charging.
9. Insert your SIM to confirm it works on your network.
10. Get a receipt and ask about the return or warranty period.

Which Ex-UK iPhone Is Best Value?

For most buyers, the iPhone 11 Pro and 12 Pro series balance camera quality and price. The 12 Pro and 12 Pro Max add 5G and MagSafe. The XS Max is the budget pick for a big screen, but check the battery health carefully on older models.

Worked Example

A buyer with about KES 100,000 compares an iPhone 12 Pro 256 GB at KSh 95,000 with an iPhone 11 Pro. If battery health and Face ID are fine on both, the 12 Pro adds 5G and a newer chip, which usually means longer software support.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Paying before checking the iCloud lock.
• Ignoring battery health below 80%.
• Not testing Face ID.
• Buying without a receipt.
• Assuming every "ex-UK" phone is the same condition.
