Why choose the iPhone 13 Pro refurbished in 2026?
The iPhone 13 Pro was the first iPhone with a ProMotion display 120Hz - a difference that can be noticed day‑to‑day in scrolling, animations and games. It also introduced the Macro photography and recording ProRes, features that were until then exclusive to professional cameras.
In 2026, the A15 Bionic remains a capable chip for any application. iOS continues to receive updates and support should last until 2028-2029. For 311 €, it is hard to find a better price‑performance ratio in an iPhone with a Pro camera.
For whom does it make sense?
- Who wants a Pro camera without paying a Pro price - triple system with Macro and ProRes for 311 €
- Who values a fluid display - ProMotion 120Hz makes a huge difference versus 60Hz
- Who is moving from an iPhone 11 or XR - massive leap in camera, display and speed

iPhone 13 Pro vs iPhone 13: is the upgrade worth it?
| Feature | iPhone 13 | iPhone 13 Pro | Winner |
|---|---|---|---|
| Camera | 12MP dual | 12MP triple + Macro + ProRes | 13 Pro |
| Display | 60Hz | 120Hz ProMotion | 13 Pro |
| Material | Aluminium | Stainless steel | 13 Pro (more premium) |
| Maximum storage | 512 GB | 1 TB | 13 Pro |
| Refurbished price | from 239 € | from 311 € | Difference: 72 € |
For 72 € difference, the iPhone 13 Pro adds a telephoto lens, 120Hz display and Macro mode. If you value photography or want a smoother display, the upgrade is worthwhile. If your budget is tighter, the iPhone 13 base is more than sufficient for daily use.
iPhone 13 Pro vs iPhone 14 Pro refurbished
The iPhone 14 Pro introduced Dynamic Island, a 48MP camera (vs 12MP) and Always‑On Display. These are significant improvements, but the price also rises: iPhone 14 Pro from 350 € vs iPhone 13 Pro from 311 €.
If the 48MP camera and Dynamic Island are important to you, the 14 Pro is worth the 39 € extra. If you want to save as much as possible with a Pro camera, the 13 Pro is the right choice.
Frequently asked questions
Does the iPhone 13 Pro still receive updates in 2026?
Yes. The iPhone 13 Pro runs iOS 26 and is expected to continue receiving updates until 2028-2029 (5-6 years of support is Apple's standard).
Does the refurbished iPhone 13 Pro have ProMotion?
Yes. The 120Hz ProMotion display works exactly like that of a new iPhone 13 Pro. It is one of the biggest advantages of the Pro model over the base model.
Does the battery of the refurbished iPhone 13 Pro last well?
Yes. All iPhones at iOutlet have batteries with health tested using specialised technical software. The iPhone 13 Pro with 80% easily provides a full day of normal use.
Is Lightning a problem in 2026?
It's less convenient than USB-C, indeed. If you already have many USB-C cables and don't want to keep a Lightning one, consider the iPhone 15 (since 411 €) or the iPhone 15 Pro (since 464 €). But if you don't mind the cable, the 13 Pro is an incredible deal for 311 €.
Note: the refurbished smartphone market grew 12,5% in 2024, reaching 67,84 billion dollars globally (Mordor Intelligence, 2024). Apple supports iPhones with updates for 5 to 6 years after launch (Macworld, 2026).
