We gave this device a solid four out of five stars in our review, praising it as one of the best foldable phones on the market.

With its 6.7-inch 120Hz AMOLED screen and powered by the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 processor, this phone certainly packs a punch. It's not just about looks though, with faster charging, a robust design, and an improved dual-lens camera system among its standout features.

The upgraded hinge mechanism also makes it easier to prop open on your desk for hands-free selfies or video calls. Giffgaff even offers flexible payment options and data plans to go with the device.

However, there's a small catch. giffgaff states that the phone is in 'Good' refurbished condition, which means there may be noticeable wear and tear, including marks on the screen and phone.

But don't worry, if you're not happy with the condition of the device, giffgaff offers a 14-day return policy, so you can rest assured you'll end up with a product you love.

All the devices are refurbished, so their condition will vary depending on your choice. However, giffgaff has got you covered. Their refurbished phones are professionally data-wiped and come with a 30-point phone health check.

You'll receive a minimum 12-month warranty and if you're concerned about battery life, don't fret as giffgaff guarantees customers will get 80% battery health or better. They also allow you to add a data plan to each phone, ensuring you'll get a good data contract along with a phone at a fraction of the price.

giffgaff have a 4 star rating on Trustpilot from 25,140 reviews. One customer said of their refurbished iPhone: "I purchased refurbished Iphone 15 from them. I am very happy with the purchase and the phone quality and battery life as same as mentioned on the website. I had some issue with the charger and support people helped me with that sent me the new charger. I highly recommend them for anyone looking for refurbished phones."

Another added: "Been with giffgaff a good while always been very good for me also bought a refurbished iPhone whole experience was great from choice to ordering to the next day delivery Thanks giffgaff." However, of the negative reviews, one person said: "Happy enough with gif gaff but be very careful if buying a refurbished phone. Bought one for christmas £250 opened it up it had a very small crack on the screen. Because i had bought it as a present very early, by the time it was opened it was out of warranty. They wanted £186 to fix it, what a rip off. Never again." Make sure you double check the product when you get it so it's still in the returns window.

If you're considering switching to Apple, Sky offers some of the most affordable prices on the market - but be warned: these are long 36-month contracts. They are offering the iPhone Pro from £33 a month, not including the airtime plan.
