Data Wiping: We securely erase all previous data from the device, ensuring your privacy and a clean slate for the new user.

What cosmetic conditions can I expect with a refurbished iPhone 15?
At Loop Mobile, our refurbished iPhone 15 models come in a range of cosmetic grades:
Premium: Our Premium iPhone 15 devices come with 90% battery life, exceeding the industry standard of 80%. The body and screen will show little-to-no signs of use, functioning as if new out of the box. Our highest quality grade available, premium devices are meant to go the distance.
=
Excellent: Our Excellent iPhones may have very light micro-scratches on the body that are not noticeable with normal use. The screen might show some extremely light signs of use, but these are not visible when the device is in use. These devices function like new.
Good: Good devices will have some light scratches on the body or possibly a small dent or two. The screen may also show very light signs of use, but these are not noticeable during regular use. Despite these cosmetic imperfections, the device operates like new.
Fair: Fair devices exhibit more pronounced cosmetic wear, such as slightly deeper scratches or dents on the body. Screens may have light scratches that are slightly visible when the device is on. Even with these signs of wear, the device functions perfectly.
Each grade reflects only the cosmetic condition, as all iPhones undergo the same rigorous testing to ensure perfect operation.

Refurbished iPhone 15 series at a glance
A refurbished iPhone 15 is a previously owned handset that’s been inspected, restored where needed, and reset so it works exactly as it should. You still get fast A-series performance (A16 on iPhone 15/15 Plus; A17 Pro on 15 Pro/Pro Max), bright OLED screens with Dynamic Island on all models, and modern USB-C charging. If you want a current-generation iPhone experience without the new-price tag, the 15 range is the sweet spot.
Which iPhone 15 is right for you?
iPhone 15 is the comfortable everyday choice at 6.1″, pairing the A16 chip with a 48-MP main camera (2× optical-quality crop). iPhone 15 Plus stretches the display to 6.7″ and goes longest between charges. If you care about 120 Hz ProMotion, the Action button and faster USB 3 transfers, iPhone 15 Pro is the sweet spot; iPhone 15 Pro Max adds the biggest battery and Apple’s 5× tetraprism telephoto for the longest optical zoom.

What “refurbished” means for iPhone 15
Refurbished isn’t just a wipe and relist. A proper iPhone 15 refurbishment includes a secure data wipe with Activation Lock cleared, a full hardware and software diagnostic, and repair or part replacement where needed. Core functions are verified — battery health and charging, display and touch, Face ID, microphones and speakers, cameras, buttons, radios (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS) and 5G connectivity — before the phone is reset and ready to set up as new. Listing details should make clear whether the device is unlocked for UK networks and whether a new battery has been fitted.
Grading and cosmetic expectations
Grades describe how the phone looks, not how it works. “Like New” or “Premium” typically shows little to no visible wear. “Excellent” tends to have faint micro-marks that are hard to spot at arm’s length. “Very Good/Good” shows more visible scuffs or hairlines on the frame that don’t affect function — often hidden once you add a case. iPhone 15/15 Plus use aluminium frames with colour-infused glass backs that hide light marks well; iPhone 15 Pro models use titanium, which is tough but can show fine swirls more readily. Screens are checked for touch accuracy; any notable scratches should be called out in the listing.
Battery health and options
Battery health (the percentage of original capacity) is a good shorthand for expected stamina. 80%+ is a common baseline for refurbished iPhones and is perfectly usable day to day; higher numbers simply mean longer between charges. Some listings include a new-battery option — worthwhile if you’re a heavy user, commute without charging, or plan to keep the phone for several years. For precise stamina expectations, use the hours in the table above as your reference point. Apple notes that iPhone 15 batteries are designed to retain 80% of their original capacity after around 1,000 complete charge cycles under ideal conditions.
Software support and longevity
iPhone 15 launched with iOS 17 and continues to receive regular iOS updates. Apple Intelligence features are available on iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max; iPhone 15 and 15 Plus get the broader iOS feature set without Apple Intelligence. That long support runway is a key reason the 15 range makes sense refurbished — you get a modern, secure platform that will keep receiving features and security patches for years.
Connectivity and SIMs
All iPhone 15 models support 5G, where your plan and local coverage allow. Set-up is straightforward with nano-SIM or eSIM, and UK models support dual-SIM (two lines at once), including dual eSIM if you prefer a fully digital setup. USB-C is standard across the range; 15 Pro and Pro Max add USB 3 up to 10 Gb/s for faster wired transfers if you shoot lots of video. Unlocked handsets are simple to move between UK providers — insert your SIM or scan your eSIM QR code during set-up.
Ready to choose your iPhone 15?
The iPhone 15 series delivers modern performance, cameras and USB-C at a sensible price — and going refurbished makes it smarter still. Pick the size and camera reach that fits how you use a phone, then use the table and filters to dial in the grade, battery option, storage and colour you want. Once you’ve found a match, check the cosmetic grade and battery information on the listing so you know exactly what you’re getting. When you’re ready, select your model, grade and storage, and head to checkout — you’ll get a refurbished iPhone 15 that feels fast, looks great and is covered by a 12-month hardware warranty with easy returns.
