Apple’s iPhone 15 series was launched in late 2023, winning praise from reviewers who hailed it as a worthy upgrade from older models. Features like the Dynamic Island, A16 Bionic chip and impressive camera make even the base model iPhone 15 seem pretty close to Pro by smartphone standards.

iPhone 15 Features
Available in 6.1 and 6.7-inch sizes, a refurbished iPhone 15 boasts a matte-frosted design that’s easy and comfortable to hold, as well as the following features:
Pro-Grade A16 Bionic Chip
Apple’s A16 Bionic chip was the first four-nanometre chip ever used in a smartphone, and it’s a speedy processor second only to the A17, which is in the iPhone 15 Pro models.
Available only in the Pro models of its predecessor, the fast, efficient, professional-grade A16 Bionic is now in the standard and Plus models of the refurbished iPhone 15 series. Compared to the A15 Bionic chip in the 14 and 14 Plus, it uses 20 per cent less power and delivers 50 per cent more memory bandwidth.
The processor is responsible for powering the iPhone 15 Dynamic Island feature and computational photography, the A16 Bionic chip has some seriously impressive tech capabilities. It contains two high-performance cores, four high-efficiency cores, a six-core CPU that can power through heavy loads while remaining easy on your battery life, and a 16-core Neural Engine that can tackle nearly 17 trillion operations per second.
The A16 Bionic chip helps power the exceptional camera qualities of your second-hand iPhone 15. Other benefits include faster performance, enhanced graphics, increased battery efficiency and easier multitasking.
Dynamic Island
As well as the brighter 2000-nit display, one of the most exciting new features you’ll find on your refurbished iPhone 15 is the Dynamic Island. This little pill-shaped feature may be small, but it lives up to its name with the way it enhances your iPhone’s useability.
Replacing the notch on its predecessor, the Dynamic Island (which debuted on the iPhone 14 Pro) is a multi-tasker’s dream. Able to shape-shift and stretch to suit the size of the task, it can display both active tasks and background ones at the same time. You can monitor active calls, file transfers, battery life, charging status, silent mode, and so much more. You can track your Uber driver or get live sporting updates from Dynamic Island while you go about other business.
Apps like Spotify and YouTube instantly appear in the Dynamic Island when you play content from them, and a lot of third-party app developers take advantage of the Dynamic Island, showcasing content in it using an Apple-provided API.
Dynamic Island allows you to watch a timer you’ve set, control your phone calls while doing other things, easily control your background music and do a range of other things to make your second-hand iPhone 15 more fun and convenient.
48-Megapixel camera
Apple has never been a brand to compromise on camera quality. When you take your pick from the refurbished iPhone 15 series, the range continues the trend.
All four of the iPhone 15 models have the same 48MP main cameras, while the Pro and Pro Max have additional camera features. All four cameras also have the 12MP True Depth selfie camera, which packs extra features like Night Mode and Portrait Lighting.
The A16 Bionic chip has a powerful impact on the iPhone 15 photographic capabilities, especially when it comes to computational photography. Its effects on machine learning and image signal processing make for high-quality images captured faster.
The results speak for themselves: vivid bright photos, natural colours and skin tones, and stable videos with smooth zoom action. This is all before we even get into the bonus features on a used iPhone 15 Pro or Pro Max, like ProRAW format images for more control when editing.
USB-C Port
The refurbished iPhone 15 series has replaced the iPhone’s standard Lightning adaptors with the USB-C port, which is commonly used across all kinds of devices, from smartphones to laptops to tablets. The adaptation of the USB-C port means you no longer have to go rummaging around for your Lightning adaptor whenever you need your iPhone charged.
USB-C is a style of adaptor that was designed to meet the needs of modern tech users. Built for higher power delivery, it features a fully reversible compact connector and audio transmission to replace the jack.
All of these features and more are just as readily available on a refurbished iPhone 15 as they are on a brand-new device.
Which Refurbished iPhone 15 Model Should You Choose?
