Understanding Refurbished iPhone Grades: What Do 'Grade A', 'B', and 'C' Really Mean?
What Is Refurbishment Grading?
Refurbishment grading evaluates the cosmetic and functional condition of a pre-owned iPhone. Unlike simply “used,” a refurbished phone has undergone a detailed restoration process—tested, repaired, and cleaned—to bring it to optimal working condition. At CellMarkt, our grading system is transparent and rigorous, so you know exactly what you’re getting.
Grade A: Like New
Grade A devices are in pristine condition.
- Cosmetic: Virtually no visible scratches, dents, or wear.
- Functionality: All features, including the screen, buttons, and battery, perform at peak levels.
- Value: Ideal for those who want an iPhone that looks and feels like it just came off the production line, with minimal signs of previous use.
At CellMarkt, our Grade A iPhones undergo extensive cleaning and restoration to ensure they are as close to new as possible.
Grade B: Excellent
Grade B devices may show minor cosmetic imperfections.
- Cosmetic: Small scratches or scuffs that aren’t easily noticeable from a normal viewing distance.
- Functionality: Fully functional with no impact on performance.
- Value: A great choice if you’re looking to save money without compromising on performance.
Our expert team at CellMarkt ensures that even our Grade B iPhones meet high performance standards, making them an excellent value option.
Grade C: Good
Grade C devices display visible signs of use.
- Cosmetic: Noticeable scratches, dents, or slight discoloration.
- Functionality: The device works well but might have minor aesthetic blemishes.
- Value: Perfect for budget-conscious buyers who prioritize functionality over flawless appearance.
Even with Grade C devices, CellMarkt’s refurbishment process guarantees that the iPhone performs reliably—backed by a competitive warranty for peace of mind.
