Buy a refurbished iPhone 16 Pro SIM-free with 85%+ battery, 12-month warranty, 45-day returns and free UK delivery.
The iPhone 16 Pro is where Apple's engineering really starts to shine. A stunning display, the A18 Pro chip, and a camera system that genuinely changes the way you take photos — this is the iPhone for people who want the full Pro experience without the size and weight of the Max.
It's the one photographers, creatives and anyone who demands a little more from their phone tend to reach for. Powerful enough to mean it, compact enough to actually enjoy carrying it.
Getting one refurbished means you're not compromising on the phone — just on what you paid for it. Every iPhone 16 Pro we sell is tested, graded and dispatched in-house, arriving data-wiped, battery checked, unlocked and backed by a 12-month warranty. All the performance, all the prestige — at a price that feels as smart as the phone itself.
This is Apple's craft at its finest. Just a little easier to say yes to.

Each refurbished iPhone 16 Pro is tested and graded in-house before dispatch. Testing may use tools such as PhoneCheck and CheckMEND where relevant. Where parts are used, we use OEM-quality parts or higher. The Big Phone Store is also a WEEE-certified recycler, helping keep premium tech in use for longer.

The refurbished iPhone 16 Pro is for buyers who want Pro features without moving to the larger Pro Max size. The 6.3-inch Super Retina XDR OLED display supports ProMotion up to 120Hz, Always-On display and Dynamic Island, giving you a smooth, sharp screen for messages, maps, streaming, editing and gaming.
The A18 Pro chip is built for demanding use. It helps with gaming, video work, Apple Intelligence features and fast everyday multitasking. Camera Control also gives quicker access to camera tools, which is useful when you want to capture a moment before it disappears.
The camera system is the big reason to choose the Pro. You get a 48MP main camera, 48MP ultra-wide and 12MP 5x telephoto, giving you more creative control than the standard iPhone 16.
A refurbished iPhone 16 Pro is not the same as a typical second hand iPhone 16 Pro from a private seller. A private listing may show clean photos, but it may not tell you the battery health, repair quality, network history or whether the phone has been fully wiped.
Professionally Refurbished | Typical Used Phone |
Tested across 90+ points | Usually not fully tested |
Minimum 85% battery health | Battery may be weak or unknown |
Data-wiped before sale | Data removal depends on the seller |
12-month warranty included | Often no warranty |
Clear condition grading | Condition can be unclear |
Network/history checks completed, including CheckMEND where relevant | Risk depends on seller honesty |
Yes. A refurbished iPhone 16 Pro is usually safer than buying used privately because it has been tested, graded, data-wiped and sold with warranty cover. It also reduces the risk of hidden faults, poor battery health, blocked devices, unclear repair work and difficult returns.
Every refurbished iPhone 16 Pro we sell is fully functional. The grade describes cosmetic condition, not performance.
Like New is the cleanest cosmetic option and includes 100% guaranteed battery health. It is best if you want the closest feel to a new device without paying new-device pricing.
Pristine has very light signs of use and works well if you want a premium look with a lower cost.
Very Good may show light marks, but gives you full Pro performance and strong value.
Good shows more visible wear and is best if you care more about price than appearance.
With the iPhone 16 Pro, we spend extra time checking Camera Control, the telephoto lens, USB-C charging and display response. These are the areas that separate a Pro phone from a standard model, so they need to feel right in real use.” - The Big Phone Store Refurbishment Team
