Is It Safe to Buy an Open-Box iPhone? A Buyer's Checklist

Buying open box is a common way to save on a new iPhone. It's safe when you check a few things.

Before you pay

• Buy from a seller with a clear refund and warranty policy.
• Ask for real photos of the exact unit.
• Confirm the model, storage and colour.
• Confirm the phone is unlocked (works with any carrier).

When it arrives

1. Check the IMEI on the box matches Settings → General → About.
2. Make sure the phone isn't linked to someone else's Apple ID (no Activation Lock on setup).
3. Check Settings → Battery → Battery Health & Charging.
4. Check Apple's warranty status on Apple's official coverage-check website.
5. Test cameras, speakers, Face ID, charging and buttons.
