Apple resumed sales of refurbished iPhone 8: now it's the cheapest iPhone, also with headphones and charger included

For the first time in a long time, Apple began selling refurbished iPhone 8s. Although this is not surprising: the "eight" remains one of the most popular models in the manufacturer's assortment.

So, a refurbished iPhone 8 starts at $319 for the 64GB version. To date, this is the cheapest smartphone that can be purchased directly from Apple.

However, keep in mind that the model is over 4 years old, and soon it will most likely stop receiving iOS updates. I advise you to pay attention to the second generation iPhone SE, released in 2020, which costs $399 for the version with the same 64 GB or $449 for 128 GB.

Recall that refurbished devices are devices that, according to any reasons returned. They return to the factory, where they undergo rigorous testing. Refurbished gadgets get a new battery, case, and the same one-year warranty as new products. Another plus of the refurbished iPhone 8 is the new packaging, which includes both EarPods and a 5W power adapter, which are not included in the box of new smartphones.
