The best reconditioned smartphones sites in the UK 2023

Amazon is the most famous commercial platform in the world. Despite the advent of other well-stocked e-commerce sites such as Aliexpress or Alibaba, the brand remains and will remain the best in its field. And for good reason, you will find on its specialized branch the best offers of refurbished smartphones with prices from 47 to more than 600 € (this is the case of the Galaxy S20+ and S21).

Almost all brands are represented, ranging from LG smartphones to Samsung smartphones and even Apple iPhones. The biggest advantage with these models is that, even if some were imported, each smartphone has been unlocked to work perfectly on French mobile networks. Even better, they have undergone rigorous testing and checks before being released for sale. By giving these new generation smartphones (and even the old ones) a second life, you'll make huge savings and earn a 12-month warranty.

The Cdiscount website has nothing to be ashamed of when compared to the giant Amazon, although it is on the^second step of the podium in terms of sales of refurbished smartphones. The platform currently has no less than 1400 models, including Samsung Galaxy as well as Apple iPhone 11. The condition of each smartphone is already indicated on its product sheet. In most cases, the cell phones are sold in excellent or fair condition.

You can make a very good deal at Cdiscount. Indeed, it is possible to find an iPhone 8 with 64 GB of storage space and iOS 11 operating system for less than €200. Of course, other brands such as Xiaomi (with its Redmi Note 9 Pro model) and Huawei (PSMart 2021) are present on the site.

Boulanger is among the best in the world of multimedia. This does not prevent it from occupying a place of choice as a seller of reconditioned smartphones on the French market. The site works through its subsidiary Boulanger^2nd life or Vendido. It offers not only smartphones, but also other types of products such as televisions, large appliances and high-tech items at a very good price.

The whole process of reconditioning its smartphones takes place in the UK. The devices undergo strict controls before being resold. You can therefore be sure to acquire smartphones of good quality. Moreover, each model comes with a minimum warranty of 6 months. Moreover, you can have your items delivered to your home or pick them up in store thanks to the"click and collect" concept.

Darty, despite its place in this ranking, is a fierce competitor for the previous online sales sites. In order to stand out from the crowd and sell as many refurbished smartphones as possible, Darty had the idea of offering them in packs. Thus, apart from the smartphone in question, you will receive useful and practical accessories such as silicone cases, tempered glass protections, covers, connected bracelets...

At Darty, the price of such a smartphone ranges from 110 to a little over 1000 €. To get a clear idea of the condition of the product, you can rely on its refurbishment grade. Most of them are grade A, which means that the smartphone will be offered to you in almost new condition. You can also find mentions like "perfect condition", "good condition" or "very good condition". Of course, you can do a more detailed search by refining your selection criteria. Note that Darty mainly offers refurbished Samsung Galaxy (up to S20) and Apple iPhone (up to 11 Pro Max) smartphones.
