Pros and cons

The best

  • Tough sapphire crystal
  • Lots of apps thanks to Wear OS
  • Good price

Worth knowing

  • One to two days of battery life
  • Some features require a Samsung phone

Refurbished grades, explained

The grade only describes how the outside looks. In every case the device should work perfectly.

  • Fair

    Visible signs of use (scratches or small dents) on the body and sometimes the screen. Works 100%.

    e.g. £85

  • Good

    Light marks only visible up close. The most common balance between price and looks.

    e.g. £100

  • Excellent

    Practically no marks to the naked eye. The closest look to new.

    e.g. £115

Example prices, not live. The real price depends on the seller, storage and timing.

Before you buy, check this

  • Battery health

    Check the guaranteed minimum and whether a new battery is an option.

  • Warranty

    Check how long the warranty lasts on each listing and what it covers.

  • Seller

    Look at the refurbisher's rating and their returns policy.

Recommended accessories

Many refurbished devices arrive without a case or charger. These are the basics we recommend.
