If you’re looking to upgrade your iPhone, several professionally refurbished models are on sale during Amazon’s Prime Day 2025 sale, which ends July 11. Each of the discounted iPhones is certified through the Amazon Renewed Premium program. While these are pre-owned, they’re all in full working order, usually just a step away from brand-new in quality. According to Amazon, each item has been professionally inspected, tested, and cleaned by professionals, and there are “no visible cosmetic imperfections” when the item is held at arm’s length. The only real loss here is the box, as Amazon will instead ship these iPhones out in generic packaging. Products are also eligible for a replacement or refund within 90 days. Note that these deals are only available to Amazon Prime members, so you’ll need an active subscription to get the lowest price.
The upshot of choosing one of the refurbished models listed below is that they’re all unlocked, meaning you can use them with your current service provider or take them with you if you decide to switch to a different company in the future. As for the discounted iPhones, there are a variety of models on sale here, though the iPhone Pro 16 is the best of the bunch, and you can grab one for as low was $816 (was $979). To be fair, smartphone design is very iterative these days, so even the iPhone 15 Pro Max or iPhone 14 are still worth picking up while they’re discounted, especially if you haven’t upgraded in a while. iPhone Pro and Pro Max models offer more power, better batteries, larger screens, and enhanced cameras compared to the standard models. There’s also the larger Pro Max comes down to size mainly, with the Pro Max offering Apple’s best hardware of the year on a larger scale.
