Apple today began offering refurbished versions of the iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro and iPhone 11 Pro Max, marking the first time that the 2019 iPhones are available at a discounted price directly from Apple.

Savings on iPhone 11 models range from $ 100 to $ 170, and for the 11 Pro and 11 Pro Max, the refurbished store is the only way to get one of these devices from Apple, as they have since been discontinued.
Apple has limited available inventory, as the content of the refurbished store varies based on what people have sent for repair. There is a single model iPhone 11 refurbished with 128 GB of storage at a price of $ 549, which represents a savings of $ 100.
There are several 11 Pro and 11 Pro Max variants with 64 to 256 GB of storage. A basic 11 Pro Max with 64 GB of storage is available for $ 849, which Apple says is a $ 150 discount.
Color availability is limited, with Apple offering the iPhone 11 in black and the iPhone 11 Pro and Pro Max only in space gray and midnight green, but the color options and available capacities will change over time.
Reconditioned PiPhone 11 models are SIM-free, unlocked by the operator and can be used with any compatible operator.
All Apple refurbished iPhones include the same one-year warranty provided for a new iPhone, along with all manuals and accessories. Each Apple refurbished device undergoes a rigorous testing, repair, repacking and cleaning process, with Apple providing new external casings and batteries.
In addition to the simple white box in which a refurbished device is shipped, it is virtually impossible to tell the difference between a refurbished “iPhone” and a new model. Standard one-year warranties can be extended with the purchase of AppleCare +, and there is also a standard 14-day return policy.
