Refurbished iPhone X UK – Face ID, OLED & 18 Month Warranty

The refurbished iPhone X was Apple’s first full-screen iPhone and introduced Face ID, an OLED display and the modern iPhone design language. In 2026 it remains a capable budget option for buyers who want Face ID and a premium OLED screen at one of the lowest available refurbished iPhone prices.

Every refurbished iPhone X at UsedMobiles4U is professionally tested, securely wiped and graded before sale. All devices are SIM-free, unlocked and supplied with an 18 Month Warranty, free UK delivery and 30-day returns.

Model Best For
iPhone X Budget Face ID iPhone with OLED display
iPhone XR Larger screen, better battery, LCD
iPhone 11 Dual cameras, Night Mode, stronger battery
iPhone 12 5G, MagSafe, newer OLED design

Why Buyers Still Choose the Refurbished iPhone X

  • One of the lowest-cost iPhones with Face ID and OLED
  • 5.8-inch Super Retina OLED display with rich colours and deep blacks
  • Dual 12MP cameras with Portrait Mode
  • A11 Bionic chip — still capable for everyday apps and use
  • Compact and lightweight design
  • Significantly lower price than newer Face ID models

Things to Know Before Buying a Refurbished iPhone X

The iPhone X is an older model and there are a few things worth knowing before buying:

  • iOS support: The iPhone X no longer receives iOS updates. It runs iOS 16 as its final supported version. Core apps like WhatsApp, banking apps and streaming services continue to work, but some newer apps may eventually drop support.
  • Battery: As an older device, battery condition varies more between units. Every iPhone X we sell is tested for battery health before listing.
  • No 5G: The iPhone X is a 4G-only device. Buyers wanting 5G should consider the iPhone 12 or newer.
  • Face ID: The iPhone X introduced Face ID — unlike newer models, it uses a notch at the top of the screen rather than a Dynamic Island.

Should You Buy the iPhone X, XR or iPhone 11?

  • Choose the iPhone X if you want Face ID and an OLED display at the lowest possible price and don’t need the latest iOS updates.
  • Choose the iPhone XR if you want a larger screen and better battery life at a similar price point.
  • Choose the iPhone 11 if you want Night Mode, dual cameras and continued iOS support — it’s only slightly more expensive and significantly more capable long-term.
  • Choose the iPhone 12 if you want 5G, MagSafe and a fully supported modern iPhone.

For most buyers, the iPhone 11 is the stronger long-term choice at a similar price. The iPhone X makes most sense for buyers where price is the absolute priority and iOS update support is less of a concern.

Who the Refurbished iPhone X Is Best For

  • Buyers who want Face ID at the lowest possible price
  • Users who mainly need calls, messaging, browsing and basic apps
  • Buyers replacing a very old or broken phone on a tight budget
  • Parents buying a first smartphone for a child
  • Anyone who wants an OLED display without paying for a newer model

Common Questions

Is a refurbished iPhone X still worth buying in 2026?

For basic everyday use — calls, messaging, WhatsApp, browsing and social media — yes. The main consideration is that the iPhone X no longer receives iOS updates, so app compatibility may reduce over time. For buyers who need long-term iOS support, the iPhone 11 is a better choice.

Does the iPhone X support Face ID?

Yes. The iPhone X was Apple’s first iPhone with Face ID, which it uses for unlocking, Apple Pay and app authentication.

Does the iPhone X support 5G?

No. The iPhone X is a 4G-only device. Buyers wanting 5G should consider the iPhone 12 or newer models.

What iOS does the iPhone X run?

The iPhone X runs iOS 16 as its final supported version. It no longer receives iOS updates from Apple.

Is 64GB enough on the iPhone X?

For light everyday use, yes. Buyers storing lots of photos, videos or apps may prefer the 256GB model if available.

Can I trade in my old phone?

Yes. You can reduce the cost of your purchase through our Sell Your Tech service.

iPhone x UK – What Should You Pay?

Prices for iPhone x devices vary depending on storage size, cosmetic grade and availability. Because stock changes often, the most accurate view is always the live listings above. If you’re trying to reduce cost without sacrificing functionality, choosing a lower cosmetic grade is typically the quickest way to save.

Refurbished vs Used iPhone x – What’s the Difference?

Many buyers search “used” or “second hand” terms interchangeably, but refurbished usually means the device has been checked, tested and graded before resale with clearer expectations around condition and aftercare. Our grades reflect appearance only, not performance — you can see the full breakdown in our refurbished phone guide and how devices are prepared on our refurbishment process page.

iPhone x Storage Options (What to choose)

If you mainly use your phone for calls, messages and everyday apps, lower storage can be enough. If you take lots of photos/videos or want more breathing room for iOS updates over time, 128GB+ is usually the safer pick. You can also browse the full Apple iPhone range to compare models and availability.
