Apple iPhone 14 128GB Violet Refurbished
£160.99
Apple iPhone 14 128GB Violet Refurbished. This device is refurbished: it has been used before and, according to the supplier, inspected and restored for a second life at a more accessible price. Light exterior signs of use may remain. Apple introduced Apple iPhone 14 on 7 September 2022. Its 12MP main camera improves light capture over iPhone 13. It retains Apple's familiar design, rounded corners and slim profile, without meaning it is thinner than iPhone 13. The 6.1-inch OLED screen shows videos and films in detail. A15 Bionic provides capability for everyday and demanding apps, with performance depending on the task and settings. Apple specifies up to 20 hours of video playback for the new model. This is not a normal mixed-use figure; actual battery life, especially on a refurbished unit, depends on use, settings and battery health. NFC and Apple Pay enable contactless payments where service requirements are met. Face ID offers facial unlocking and Emergency SOS provides emergency calling options according to setup and region. ## Cameras for different moments The 12MP main camera retains the previous generation's pixel count, while improved sensor and processing help produce clearer images, especially in low light. The rear system combines the main camera with a 12MP Ultra Wide for broad scenes such as landscapes or group photos. Choose the framing appropriate to each scene. For self-portraits, the 12MP front camera offers another capture option with iPhone's photographic processing. The cameras expand your choices without ensuring a perfect picture in every situation. ## Design Apple iPhone 14 combines Apple's familiar design with iOS. Rounded corners and a slim profile help handling; comfort and ease of use depend on your hand size. The 6.1-inch OLED display provides colour and contrast for videos and films. Its format is more compact than Plus, though it does not guarantee a fit in every pocket or hand. The original model is rated IP68: Apple tested it at up to 6 metres for up to 30 minutes under controlled conditions. This does not guarantee use in a shower or while boating, or permanent protection. Original resistance should not be assumed to remain after use or repairs on a refurbished device. ## Apple A15 Bionic processor A15 Bionic handles apps and multitasking, including demanding work, without promising no waiting or slowdowns at all. Compared with the A15 in iPhone 13, iPhone 14 has a five-core GPU instead of four. The supplier also advertises additional working memory to support switching between apps. Apple does not publish the RAM capacity in its technical sheet. If you want another generation, iPhone 15 is an alternative whose performance should be compared for your own use. ## Battery life The chip's energy management contributes to runtime. The figure of up to 20 hours is for video playback in tests of the new model, rather than any phone usage. Battery condition and settings also affect this refurbished unit. Low Power Mode reduces certain activities to extend remaining time when charging is unavailable, for example until the end of the day. It does not add a fixed guaranteed duration. Without a cable to hand, use a compatible Qi or MagSafe charger. MagSafe aligns and attaches at the back using built-in magnets with suitable accessories; conventional Qi charging does not need magnetic attachment. MagSafe also supports compatible accessories such as a wallet or tripod mount to help take steady photos. Attachment depends on the accessory and case used. ## Contactless payment with NFC Apple iPhone 14 pays through Apple Pay at compatible terminals and retailers with a supported card and bank. Availability depends on country and service; NFC alone does not make it work everywhere. A compatible, configured Apple Watch can also pay without taking out your iPhone, useful when you do not have your wallet. ## Unlocking Face ID recognises the enrolled face through TrueDepth and makes unlocking with a glance convenient. Setup and a backup passcode are required, and that code remains necessary in some situations; it does not guarantee nobody else can gain access or remove every authentication error. ## Safety and security Emergency SOS lets you call emergency services. With the relevant option and region, hold the side button and either volume button until the controls appear and the countdown ends, then release for the call. “Call with 5 Presses” can also be enabled in SOS settings. Behaviour and connection requirements vary by region and setup. For digital security, iPhone protects stored data with local encryption; Face ID data also remains protected on the device. Protection depends on the passcode and settings. Automatic security updates, when available and enabled, app privacy labels and tracking permissions help manage data. Configure them and keep software updated; Face ID does not guarantee exclusive access in every circumstance.
