Which iPhone 16 model should I choose?
Choosing the right refurbished iPhone 16 comes down to size, battery life, camera reach and whether you want a 120 Hz display. Here’s a breakdown to help you decide:
1. iPhone 16
Best For: Everyday use; a balanced mix of performance, camera quality and portability.
Key Features: Super Retina XDR OLED, A18 chip, 48-MP main + 12-MP ultra-wide with 2× optical-quality crop, Dynamic Island, Action button/Camera Control. Battery: up to 22 hours video playback (18 hours streamed).
Ideal If: You want the modern iPhone experience at a sensible price and don’t need the Pro’s 120 Hz screen or long-reach telephoto.
Best For: Big-screen fans and those who value the longest battery life on the non-Pro models.
Key Features: Larger Super Retina XDR OLED, A18 chip, the same dual-camera system as iPhone 16 with 2× optical-quality crop. Battery: up to 27 hours video playback (24 hours streamed).
Ideal If: You prefer a roomier display and longer time between charges without stepping up to Pro pricing.
Best For: Creators and power users who want the smoother 120 Hz ProMotion display and more camera control.
Key Features: Super Retina XDR OLED with ProMotion 120 Hz and Always-On, A18 Pro chip, triple camera including 5× tetraprism telephoto, LiDAR, ProRAW/ProRes, USB-C (USB 3 up to 10 Gb/s). Battery: up to 27 hours video playback (22 hours streamed).
Ideal If: You want pro-level zoom and a fluid 120 Hz screen in a hand-friendly size.
Best For: Those who want the largest display and the very best battery life in the range.
Key Features: Super Retina XDR OLED with ProMotion 120 Hz and Always-On, A18 Pro, triple camera with 5× tetraprism telephoto, LiDAR, USB-C (USB 3 up to 10 Gb/s). Battery: up to 33 hours video playback (29 hours streamed).
Ideal If: You want maximum screen space and longevity between charges, plus the full Pro camera system.
Budget: iPhone 16 and 16 Plus deliver the core 48-MP camera and A18 speed for less than the Pro models.
Display size: 6.1″ fits most hands; 6.7″ is great for media; 6.3″/6.9″ Pro screens add 120 Hz smoothness.
Camera needs: Non-Pro models deliver excellent everyday results, including macro and a 2× optical-quality crop from the 48-MP sensor. Pro models add 5× optical zoom, LiDAR-enabled features and ProRAW/ProRes
Battery life: Expect ~22–27 hours video playback on 16/16 Plus, and 27–33 hours on the Pro models (see exact hours above).
Ultimately, the best choice is the one that matches how you use your phone: size first, then battery life, then camera reach and display smoothness.
What checks and tests do refurbished iPhone 16 Pro models go through?
Every refurbished iPhone 16 Pro at Loop Mobile goes through an extensive and thorough refurbishment process:
Data Wiping: We securely erase all previous data from the device, ensuring your privacy and a clean slate for the new user.
Hardware Testing: Our experts conduct over 75 checks, including tests for battery life, screen responsiveness, button functionality, and connectivity features such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and 5G capabilities. We also test the camera systems, ensuring that features like Night mode, and Cinematic mode are functioning perfectly.
Repairs and Upgrades: Any defective components are replaced. We pay special attention to ensure the device meets the highest standards.
Cosmetic Grading: Each iPhone 16 Pro is graded based on its cosmetic condition, ranging from 'Premium' to 'Fair', allowing customers to choose based on their preferences and budget.
Final Inspection: A thorough final check ensures that each iPhone 16 Pro meets our stringent quality standards and is fully functional before being packaged and shipped.
What cosmetic conditions can I expect with a refurbished iPhone 16 Pro?
At Loop Mobile, our refurbished phones come in a range of cosmetic grades:
Premium: Our Premium iPhone 16 Pro 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 16 Pro at a glance
A refurbished iPhone 16 Pro is a previously owned handset that’s been inspected, restored where needed and reset so it works exactly as it should. You still get A18 Pro speed, a bright 6.3″ Super Retina XDR display with ProMotion and Always‑On, and a flexible triple‑camera system with 5× tetraprism telephoto and LiDAR. It’s a modern flagship experience at a lower price and with a smaller footprint than buying new. Because each device has already been through real‑world use, the refurbishment process is designed to surface and resolve any issues before it reaches you, from battery longevity to camera calibration. If you’re upgrading from an older iPhone or switching from Android, set‑up is straightforward with iCloud or cable transfer and eSIM activation.
Which iPhone Pro model is right for you?
If you want the most modern small-Pro, iPhone 16 Pro is the standout: a bigger 6.3″ display, the only smaller Pro with 5× optical zoom, the fastest A18 Pro chip, USB-C (USB 3), the Action button and the new Camera Control. iPhone 15 Pro is the best value step-down (titanium, USB-C, Action button) if you don’t need 5× zoom. iPhone 14 Pro gets you Dynamic Island and the first 48-MP main camera but keeps Lightning, and iPhone 13 Pro is the budget-friendly Pro with ProMotion and a solid 12-MP triple camera.
If you’re unsure: choose 16 Pro for the longest-lasting small Pro with 5× zoom and the most future-proof chip; pick 15 Pro to save while keeping titanium, USB-C and the Action button; go 14 Pro if you want Dynamic Island and 48-MP main at a lower price; or 13 Pro for the most affordable ProMotion-equipped Pro.
What “refurbished” means for the iPhone 16 Pro
Refurbished isn’t just a wipe and relist. A proper iPhone 16 Pro 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 will state whether a new battery has been fitted and confirm the phone is unlocked for UK networks. Devices are cleaned and packaged securely, and arrive ready to personalise with your Apple ID, apps and settings.
Grading and cosmetic expectations
Grades describe how the phone looks, not how it works. “Like New” or “Premium” usually 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. The iPhone 16 Pro uses titanium, which is tough but can show fine swirls more readily. Screens are checked for touch accuracy, brightness and colour; any notable scratches are called out in the listing. If you want a pristine look, pick the higher grade; if you plan to case it from day one, a lower cosmetic grade can offer better value for the same performance.
Battery health and options
Battery health (the percentage of original capacity) is a useful 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. The iPhone 16 Pro’s A18 Pro chip and Apple’s power management help it feel efficient; for a concrete reference, Apple quotes up to 27 hours of video playback (22 hours streamed). Real‑world life will vary with signal strength, screen brightness and app mix, but choosing a higher health reading or a new‑battery option will maximise longevity.
Software support and longevity
iPhone 16 Pro ships with modern iOS and Apple Intelligence capabilities, and will receive security patches and feature updates for years. That long support runway is a key reason the 16 Pro makes sense refurbished: you get current‑generation performance and features with a lower price and smaller footprint. From banking and secure Face ID payments to pro‑grade camera formats like ProRAW and ProRes, you’ll be covered for everyday use and creative work alike.
Connectivity and SIMs
All iPhone 16 Pro handsets support 5G where your plan and local coverage allow. Set‑up is straightforward with a nano‑SIM or eSIM on UK models, and Dual SIM lets you keep two lines active at once — useful for work and travel. USB‑C is standard with USB 3 transfer speeds up to 10 Gb/s, handy for fast offloads if you shoot ProRes video. Unlocked phones are simple to move between UK providers: insert your nano‑SIM or scan your eSIM QR code during set‑up, then download your apps and you’re ready to go.
Ready to choose your iPhone 16 Pro
The iPhone 16 Pro delivers cutting‑edge performance and modern camera tech at a sensible price — and going refurbished makes it smarter still. Choose the grade, battery option, storage and colour that fit how you use a phone, then check the listing details so you know exactly what you’re getting. If longevity matters most, pick a higher battery‑health reading or a new‑battery option where shown, and add a case and screen protector for day‑one protection. When you’re ready, select your configuration and head to checkout — you’ll get a refurbished iPhone 16 Pro that feels fast, looks great and is covered by a 12‑month hardware warranty with easy returns.
