BUY FROM MOBILES.CO.UK
The deal, which is listed on the special offers page at Mobiles.co.uk, comes an unlimited supply of monthly data, and a £20 Currys gift card.
The low monthly cost is simply due to the fact that this is a pre-owned device, and listed as ‘excellent condition’.
Anyone who wants to save cash on their smartphone should always consider shopping refurbished.
Mobiles.co.uk stocks a pretty hefty line of refurbished iPhone and Android handsets (you’ll find more options listed further down this article).
Everyone who’s ever shopped for a new phone before will knows that new-generation releases from the likes of Samsung and Apple – especially Apple – can come in at a serious cost.
Even Apple’s latest ‘affordable’ mobile, the iPhone 16e, is a decidedly mid-range option.
So if you want a big brand with a budget price tag? Take the refurbished route.
All refurb phones from Mobiles.co.uk are fully tested, reconditioned, guaranteed to be in perfect working order, and come with charging cables and SIM tools.
With a battery health of at least 80%, these phones will deliver reliable performance – and come with 12-month warranty if you’re not happy with it.
The Sun’s tech editor tested the iPhone 12 and called it ‘the biggest upgrade in years’
Despite its vintage, the iPhone 12, which hit the market back in 2020, is still an eminently capable smartphone – it’s Apple’s first 5G phone.
The Sun’s Tech Editor Sean Keach tested this mobile back when it hit the market in 2020.
In his iPhone 12 review, he called it a ‘a great all-rounder with amazing features for the price’.
Its 6.1-inch Super Retina XDR display delivers vibrant colours and sharp details, perfect for videos and photos.
It’s powered by the A14 Bionic chipset, the iPhone 12 will deliver a smooth and reliable performance.
Additional features include Face ID for secure unlocking, and a fast-charging battery that powers up to 50% in just 30 minutes.
Photography fans should be happy with the phone’s 12MP Wide and Ultra-Wide cameras.
As Sean writes: ‘Every photo you take on ultra-wide looks amazing… Night Mode is back and even better, letting you take bright nighttime shots without flash.’
The only things noticeably absent from this device, in the year 2025, are Apple’s AI features, which were introduced with the iPhone 15 in 2023 – you won’t get any of those clever photo-editing tools.
But honestly, that feels like the only significant trade-off here.
