If you didn't manage to pick up any great deals from Amazon Prime Day, don't worry, because we've got your back. Right now, you can pick up a refurbished iPhone 16e in excellent condition from Amazon for just $419.99, which is a whopping $180 cheaper than the original asking price. Considering this Apple phone only arrived earlier this year, that's a pretty great deal.
The iPhone 16e packs the same A18 chip as the base model iPhone 16, a top pick from our guide to the best iPhones for gaming, making it an ideal pick for anyone who spends a lot of time playing demanding games like Genshin Impact or Infinity Nikki. Combine its flagship-level performance capabilities with its 6.1-inch OLED screen, which offers stunning gameplay visuals and top-tier streaming playback, and this phone is a perfect example of why Apple is still the market-leading mobile brand all these years after the first iPhone launched back in 2007.
Of course, the iPhone 16e is more than just good for gaming. It also features a very similar 48MP camera to the base model iPhone 16 and offers all the same Apple Intelligence AI features, including Image Playground and Writing Tools. While it is a renewed model, the phone itself only launched back in February of this year, so you know you're not getting something that someone else has already used and abused for years, and the battery should still be in top condition. Amazon also has a pretty sophisticated testing procedure for renewed devices, so it should feel like receiving a new phone when it turns up in the post.
In terms of the deal itself, the $419.99 price point applies to the 128GB iPhone 16e in the black colorway. However, if you need a bit more space for your favorite picks from our guide to the best Apple Arcade games, the 256GB is also on offer, down from $629.99 to $546.39. Both options are unlocked, so you won't have to mess around sorting out a new contract with a provider to get up and running, and they come with a 90-day return guarantee.
The last thing worth mentioning is that this new low price only applies as long as Amazon has stock of renewed iPhone 16e devices, so be sure to act fast if you want to pick one up for yourself.
