class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The used and refurbished smartphone market in India has grown fast. Industry estimates from research firms like Counterpoint and CyberMedia Research have repeatedly shown that India&#8217;s pre-owned smartphone market ships in the multiple millions of units every year, and iPhones consistently sit among the most resold devices because of their long software support and high resale value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That popularity is exactly why the market is crowded with sellers of every quality level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Here&#8217;s the real problem buyers face:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>No way to check if the IMEI number is clean or blacklisted<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Unclear battery health \u2014 a used iPhone at 78% health should never be priced like one at 95%<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>No written warranty coverage, so any fault after 10 days becomes your problem<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sellers who skip the GST invoice for used phone, making resale or complaints difficult later<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Devices with hidden iCloud status issues (Activation Lock still on)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>No return policy for pre-owned devices if the phone doesn&#8217;t match the description<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>This is not a small-ticket purchase. A second-hand iPhone in India can cost anywhere from \u20b915,000 to \u20b970,000+.
