Apple Now Offering Refurbished iPhone 13 Models in the US
In January 2023, Apple began offering refurbished iPhone 13 models to customers in the UK and select European markets such as Germany, Italy, and Spain. Refurbished iPhone 13 mini, iPhone 13, iPhone 13 Pro, and iPhone 13 Pro Max are now available to customers in the US for the first time.
Apple launched the iPhone 13 family in September 2021.
Please be aware that availability is subject to stock fluctuations, so you may need to be patient to get the color or memory size you want. For example, the standard iPhone 13 model is not currently available in refurbished form.
