Almost everyone who arrives here is deciding between two things: the standard iPhone 17 and one from the Pro line. And the decision almost always comes down to price, because the jump between the two is the largest in the entire family. Start by looking at the right-hand column.
In this article
| Model | Capacities | Colours | In stock | From |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| iPhone 17 | 256 GB · 512 GB | Black, white, blue, green, purple | 54 units | 926.99 € |
| iPhone 17e | 256 GB · 512 GB | Black, white, pink | 7 units | 1,039.99 € |
| iPhone Air | 256 GB · 512 GB · 1 TB | Black, white, blue, gold | 12 units | 1,035.99 € |
| iPhone 17 Pro | 256 GB · 512 GB · 1 TB | Blue, silver, coral | 232 units | 1,120.99 € |
| iPhone 17 Pro Max | 256 GB · 512 GB · 1 TB · 2 TB | Blue, silver, coral | 136 units | 1,311.99 € |
The prices are the minimum for each model at this moment, and each minimum is for a different configuration. A 256 GB Pro Max may start below a 512 GB Pro, so always compare within the same capacity. Refurbished units come with 24-month warranty; the few used units that appear come with 18-month warranty. In either case you have 14 days to return.
What differs between them
O iPhone 17 is what makes sense for most people. It’s where we have the most stock, the most colour choice and the entry price for the generation. If you don’t have a concrete reason to go for the Pro, this is where you stop.
O 17e is the entry point. Similar price to the 17 and fewer colour options, which makes it interesting mainly when it appears in a configuration that suits you.
O iPhone Air is the slim model of the generation. We have few units and most are in high capacities, which pushes the price above what you would expect. It is bought for the form factor, not the price-to-specification ratio.
O 17 Pro and the 17 Pro Max are the same proposition in two sizes, and the Pro Max is the only one that reaches 2 TB. Between them you decide on size and capacity; between them and the 17, you decide on budget.
Refurbished on a phone of this generation
It is worth saying this clearly, because it is different from buying refurbished from a model that is five years old. A refurbished iPhone 17 had an owner for a short time. In practice, almost all the stock of this family is at the top: of the 54 units iPhone 17 in stock at the moment, 42 are in Premium Grade or Grade A, 10 in Grade B and 2 in Grade C.
This changes what you should look for. In older models the grade is the variable that determines the price; here the variable is the storage. The difference between 256 GB and 1 TB will cost you more on your invoice than the difference between a Premium Grade and an A Grade that you won’t be able to tell apart when holding the phone in your hand.
- Premium Grade: virtually no signs of use, glass with no visible scratches to the naked eye.
- Grade A: cosmetically excellent, with no deep scratches on the screen.
- Grade B: visible scratches to the naked eye but not deep. Functionality identical.
- Grade C: clear signs of use. Functionality identical. Almost non-existent on the 17; appears more on the Pro Max.
The criterion for each grade is explained on the grades page, and the testing process in how we certify each device.

Frequently asked questions
Is the 17 or the 17 Pro better value?
For most people, the 17. The Pro line costs considerably more and the difference is noticeable in specific uses, mainly photography and video. If that is not your case, your money goes further with a higher storage capacity on the 17 than on the base Pro.
Does a refurbished iPhone this recent already exist?
Yes, and that is why most of the stock for this family is in Premium Grade and Grade A. These are devices that had previous owners for months, were inspected and tested by technicians in a certified European refurbishment network, and returned to the market.
What storage capacity should I choose?
256 GB is sufficient for most people. Move to 512 GB if you film a lot or store everything on your phone. The 1 TB and 2 TB options exist for those who already know they need them.
And what if the configuration I want sells out?
Each refurbished unit is a device that has already existed, and we cannot order ten more just like it. The colour and capacity you see today may not be available next week.
Does it come with box and charger?
No. It comes with the phone in neutral cardboard packaging. Accessories are not included.
If this still seems expensive to you, the iPhone 16 and the iPhone 15 they do almost everything the same for much less.
