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

Savings on the iPhone 11 models range from $ 100 to $ 170, and for the 11 Pro and 11 Pro Max, the only way to get one of these devices from Apple is the refurbished store as they have since been discontinued.
Apple has limited stock available because the contents of the refurbished store fluctuate based on what people have sent in for repair. There is one refurbished iPhone 11 model with 128 GB of storage, priced at $ 549, which is a savings of $ 100.
There are different variants 11 Pro and 11 Pro Max with 64 to 256 GB storage space. An entry-level 11 Pro Max with 64 GB of storage is available for $ 849, which Apple says is $ 150 off.
Color availability is limited as Apple offers the iPhone 11 in black, and the iPhone 11 Pro and Pro Max in space gray and midnight green only, but color options and available capacities will change over time.
Refurbished iPhone 11 models do not have a SIM card, are unlocked, and can be used with any supported carrier.
All of Apple’s refurbished iPhones come with the same one-year warranty as a brand new iPhone, along with all manuals and accessories. Every refurbished Apple device undergoes a rigorous testing, repair, repackage and cleaning process, with Apple supplying new cases and batteries.
Aside from the plain white box in which a refurbished device is shipped in, it is virtually impossible to tell the difference between a refurbished iPhone and a new model. Standard one-year warranty can be extended with an AppleCare + purchase, and there is also a standard 14-day return policy.
