Before buying, confirm the exact model, storage capacity and colour, since prices can vary noticeably between an iPhone 12, 13 or the newer models. Check whether the listing is for a brand new, refurbished, or UK-used unit, as this affects both price and expected condition. Look at the seller rating and reviews for that specific product, since iPhones are a common target for mismatched listings. It also helps to confirm network compatibility, battery health for refurbished units, and what accessories are included in the box, such as a charger or cable, before you complete your order.
