Woot is back with another refurbished iPhone sale this week, offering the iPhone 6s, iPhone 7, iPhone 8, and iPhone XR devices for notable low prices.

Note: MacRumors is an affiliate partner with Woot. When you click a link and make a purchase, we may receive a small payment, which helps us keep the site running.

Sales start at $94.99 for the 64GB iPhone 6s, and increase to $119.99 for the 32GB iPhone 7, and $199.99 for the 32GB iPhone 7 Plus. These iPhones are available on either AT&T or T-Mobile.

As with previous Woot sales, these iPhones are expected to have a moderate level of wear and tear. This includes potential scratches, dents, and dings, but outside of their physical appearance they have been tested to be in full working condition.

If you're in the market for a new iPhone, we've begun tracking the latest carrier deals in our Best iPhone Deals guide. This includes discounts and offers from AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon, Sprint, and more.

Security updates for the 6s should be stopping this fall (barring some announcement from Apple), just a few months away - not a good thing to be advertising this as a story.

It makes no sense to get a 6s when a 7 is not that much more, is considerably faster, will receive updates longer, and is water resistant.

I wouldn’t even consider what you said about the iPhone 7, just consider the difference of $26 between both the iPhone 6s and iPhone 7 listed in the article . I’d wager consumer probably don’t even know the differences between the 6S and 7.
 
yeah i second the person saying MR should not be posting this. I know you got a good deal going with woot, but please, don't recommend products to us when we all know they have such a limited shelf life... I use a 6S, and this thing is getting real long in the tooth. MR, remember when Jobs said "we dont ship junk"... Same ethos should apply to you all. Tempting promotions for inferior products tarnish your reputation.
 
Shame for them to be promoting sales of “refurbished” iPhones when we should just be honest- these are cast offs that people probably traded in and aren’t worth the money. You can go to Metro PCS and sign up for service and get a brand new iPhone SE ( the new one, not the ancient one) for $99 US.

Does this dispel the myth on this site that only rich people buy iPhone and only poor people buy android cos its cheap?

No, they probably will not be stopping security updates. Rumor is that all phones that received iOS 13 will get iOS 14. Security updates go beyond the last iOS update anyway. The iPhone 5s received one in May and that's stuck on iOS 12. I think security updates stop when the product is declared 'vintage'. The 6s has some life in it yet; it still runs great.
 
I've had a 6S for the last few years (probably my 4th 6s). It's still running strong. I was hoping to hold out for a USB-C iPhone although the rumours don't support it. So far none of the iPhones have any "must have" features for me, although portrait mode would be nice and so would Face ID since I do enjoy it on my iPad Pro.

I buy used 6S for our company. They work great. Nothing mind blowing from that to the 12. Camera is nicer but not life changing.

Buyer beware. I just received an iPhone 7 from this Woot sale and the battery life was 69% on Coconut Battery and 76% in settings. Woot promised this: "Batteries are tested to function at minimum 85% capacity."

Right. I should have bought two and sent one back. This was a very disappointing waste of time.
