iCloud Activation Lock — what to check

Always confirm iCloud Activation Lock has been cleared before purchasing any Apple device. A device still linked to the previous owner’s Apple ID cannot be set up — reputable retailers check this before sale, but it’s worth verifying.

What to check before buying a refurbished iPhone X

Check the warranty — all retailers here offer at least 12 months, but check what it covers
Read the grade description carefully — grading standards can vary slightly between retailers
Check the return policy — UK law gives you at least 14 days, most retailers offer 30
