What is the difference between used, refurbished, and brand new phones?

Used phones are pre-owned devices sold as-is, usually with minimal testing or repairs. Refurbished phones are professionally tested, repaired if needed, cleaned, and restored to full working condition, often with a warranty. Brand new phones are factory-sealed, never used, and include a full manufacturer warranty.

Are your refurbished phones tested before sale?

Yes. All refurbished phones go through a thorough 70+ point inspection covering battery health, screen responsiveness, cameras, charging ports, and more.

Do your phones come with a warranty?

Brand new phones include a standard manufacturer warranty. Refurbished phones typically include an 18-month warranty. Used phones may include a limited warranty depending on the listing.

What condition are the used phones in?

Are your phones unlocked?

Yes. Unless otherwise stated, all phones are fully unlocked and compatible with UK networks including Vodafone, O2, EE, and Three.

What accessories come with the phone?

Refurbished and used phones include a charging cable, SIM tool, and Protection bundle. A charger plug is included only when listed on the product. Brand new phones include the original box and standard accessories. Packaging on refurbished and used phones may not be original.

Can I return the phone if I change my mind?

Product Description :

Refurbished Apple iPhone Air - Unlocked

The Refurbished Apple iPhone Air brings together Apple's ultra-thin titanium design, powerful A19 Pro performance and advanced camera technology for buyers who want a premium iPhone without paying the price of a brand-new device.

At just 5.64mm thick and weighing 165g, the iPhone Air is designed to feel exceptionally light while still delivering the performance expected from a modern flagship iPhone. Its 6.5-inch Super Retina XDR display, 48MP Fusion camera, 5G connectivity and Apple Intelligence support make it suitable for everyday communication, photography, streaming, gaming and mobile productivity.

Every refurbished Apple iPhone sold by Zextons goes through a 70+ point inspection and is available in Excellent, Good or Fair condition, depending on the option selected.

Refurbished Apple iPhones also come with a minimum 85% battery health, an 18-month Zextons warranty, 30-day returns and free next-day UK delivery.

Key Features of the Refurbished iPhone Air

6.5-inch Super Retina XDR Display

The iPhone Air features a 6.5-inch Super Retina XDR OLED display designed for sharp text, detailed images and smooth everyday interaction.

ProMotion technology provides an adaptive refresh rate of up to 120Hz, making scrolling, animations and compatible games feel more responsive. The display also supports Dynamic Island, HDR, True Tone and an Always-On display.

With high outdoor brightness, the screen remains easier to view when using your phone outside in bright conditions.

Ultra-Thin Titanium Design

At only 5.64mm thick, the iPhone Air is Apple's thinnest iPhone design.

The Grade 5 titanium frame provides a premium structure while keeping the device lightweight at just 165g.

Ceramic Shield protection is used across the design to improve durability, while the slim profile makes the iPhone Air comfortable to carry and use throughout the day.

For buyers who want flagship performance without the weight of a larger Pro Max-style device, the iPhone Air offers a particularly lightweight alternative.

Apple A19 Pro Performance

The iPhone Air is powered by Apple's A19 Pro chip, featuring a 6-core CPU, 5-core GPU with Neural Accelerators and a 16-core Neural Engine.

This provides the performance needed for:

everyday apps and multitasking
mobile gaming
photo and video editing
streaming
Apple Intelligence features
demanding graphics
productivity applications

The A19 Pro architecture is also designed with power efficiency in mind, helping balance strong performance with everyday battery use.

48MP Fusion Camera

The 48MP Fusion Main camera gives the iPhone Air a versatile camera system for everyday photography and video.

It supports high-resolution photo capture alongside a 2x optical-quality Telephoto option, allowing you to frame subjects more closely without carrying a separate camera.

Photography features include:

Night mode
next-generation portraits
Photographic Styles
Smart HDR
sensor-shift optical image stabilisation
2x optical-quality zoom

For video, the iPhone Air supports 4K Dolby Vision recording at up to 60fps, making it suitable for everyday videos, travel clips, social content and higher-quality recording.

18MP Center Stage Front Camera

The 18MP Center Stage front camera is designed for selfies, FaceTime, video calls and front-facing video.

Center Stage can help keep people positioned within the frame during supported calls and recordings.

The front camera also supports autofocus, stabilised video and Dual Capture, allowing compatible recording with the front and rear cameras together.

Apple Intelligence & iOS

The iPhone Air supports Apple Intelligence, bringing AI-assisted features into compatible parts of iOS.

Depending on software version, language and region, available functionality can include tools for writing, communication, images and everyday tasks.

Because Apple Intelligence features can change through software updates, availability should be checked against the current iOS version installed on the device.

5G, Wi-Fi 7 & Bluetooth 6

The iPhone Air supports modern wireless connectivity including:

5G mobile networks
Wi-Fi 7
Bluetooth 6
eSIM
USB-C
compatible satellite safety features

Its USB-C connection can be used for charging and compatible data connections.

The iPhone Air uses eSIM rather than a physical SIM tray, so buyers should confirm that their chosen mobile network supports eSIM before ordering.

Battery Life & Charging

The iPhone Air is rated for up to 27 hours of video playback, although actual battery performance varies according to usage, signal strength, apps, display settings and battery condition.

Apple also supports fast charging, allowing compatible charging equipment to provide approximately 50% charge in around 30 minutes under suitable conditions.

For refurbished Apple iPhones sold by Zextons, we guarantee a minimum 85% battery health.

This battery-health guarantee applies specifically to refurbished Apple iPhones.
