Cheapest iPhone 13

Shop the Cheapest iPhone 13 in Australia

The cheapest iPhone 13 at Phonebot is A$399, and the most expensive is A$599. Everything between those two figures is the same generation of phone, tested the same way and covered the same way. What moves a unit up or down that range is the model, the storage size and the cosmetic grade, and this page is sorted so the lowest prices come first.

How to Pay the Least for an iPhone 13

Three levers decide what you pay, and they are worth pulling in this order.

Take a lower cosmetic grade

This is the cheapest lever and the one most people skip. Grades describe appearance only, never function. A Grade B phone has visible marks and works exactly like a Like New one, with the same testing behind it and the same warranty. Dropping one grade on the same model and storage saves between A$30 and A$70 here. If the phone is going into a case on day one, you are paying for marks nobody will see. Our refurbished phone grading guide shows what each level actually looks like in the hand.

Take less storage

Storage moves the price more than grade does, by around A$100 between the two sizes we stock on the standard iPhone 13. If your photos live in iCloud and you install a normal number of apps, the smaller size is the better buy and the difference is pure saving.

Buy a unit that is already reduced

Reduced units show their old price crossed out on the card, so the saving is visible before you click. Those change as stock turns over, and the iPhone 13 sale collects whatever is currently marked down in one place.

Cheapest iPhone 13 Mini

The Mini is where this range starts. At 5.4 inches it is the smallest modern iPhone Apple made, and the last of its kind, since the line ended with this generation. It runs the same A15 Bionic chip and the same dual 12MP cameras as the standard 13, with around 17 hours of video playback. You give up screen size and some battery, and nothing in performance or photography. If the lowest possible outlay is the goal, start here.

Cheapest Standard iPhone 13

The standard 13 costs a little more than the Mini and is the model most people end up choosing. A 6.1-inch Super Retina XDR OLED display, the A15 Bionic chip, dual 12MP cameras with Night mode and Cinematic mode, and around 19 hours of video playback. Face ID, MagSafe, 5G and the IP68 rating are all included. It also has the most units in stock, so it is usually the easiest model to find in the exact grade and storage you want.

Cheapest iPhone 13 Pro and Pro Max

Both Pro models add a 120Hz ProMotion display and a third camera with 3x telephoto, a LiDAR scanner for faster low-light focus, and ProRAW and ProRes. The Pro runs to roughly 22 hours of video playback and the Pro Max to around 28, on a larger 6.7-inch display. The Pro models fell furthest from their original retail price, so if you want Pro features this is the generation where the discount is biggest. Which of the two is cheaper on any given day depends entirely on what storage we hold, and our iPhone 13 price breakdown sets every model and storage size against each other.

A Low Price Does Not Mean a Lesser Phone

The cheapest unit on this page goes through exactly the same process as the dearest one. Every phone is function tested on battery health, screen, cameras, speakers, buttons and ports, checked for liquid damage, data wiped, cleared of any previous owner's activation lock and graded before it is listed. Price reflects the model, the storage and the marks on the case. It never reflects a shortcut in testing.

If you want the detail on what that testing involves and how it compares with buying privately, second-hand iPhone 13 walks through it.

This page sorts for the lowest outlay, so the full refurbished iPhone 13 range is where to look if you want every unit we hold rather than only the cheapest.

And if the 13 is not where you land, the wider refurbished iPhones range covers every other generation we stock.
