Buy Refurbished Samsung Phones in the UAE

Phonebot stocks refurbished Samsung phones across the Galaxy S, Z Fold, Z Flip, A and J ranges, with delivery across the UAE and collection from our Dubai store. Every used Samsung handset goes through full hardware testing, an IMEI blacklist check and a factory reset before listing, and is sold unlocked. Each listing states the model, storage size, condition grade and minimum battery health. The same terms apply across our full range of refurbished phones.

Used, second hand and pre-owned describe ownership history. Refurbished and renewed describe what has been done to the device since. At Phonebot both apply: every second hand Samsung is tested and graded before it is listed.

Samsung Galaxy S Series

Each generation in the Galaxy S series has its own category, so you can go straight to the model you want.

Galaxy S26 Series

The Galaxy S26, S26+ and S26 Ultra launched in February 2026. The S26 Ultra runs the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for Galaxy, with the Exynos 2600 on the S26 and S26+ in some regions. Samsung dropped the 128GB tier across the lineup, so the S26 starts at 256GB. The Ultra keeps S Pen support and the 200MP main sensor. Refurbished stock depends on trade-in volume. If the category is empty, leave your email on the page and we will notify you when units arrive.

Galaxy S25 Series

The Galaxy S25 range covers the S25, S25+, S25 Ultra and S25 Edge. The Edge is the slim variant and is easy to miss when filtering by model name. The Ultra is stocked in 256GB and 512GB, the Plus in 512GB. Colours include Titanium Black, Titanium Grey, Titanium Silver Blue, Titanium Jet Black, Icyblue, Mint, Navy and Silver Shadow. The S25 carries seven years of Android updates from release and runs the current Galaxy AI feature set.

Galaxy S24 Series

The Galaxy S24 range covers the S24, S24+, S24 Ultra and S24 FE. This was the first Samsung generation built around Galaxy AI, running the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, and introduced Circle to Search, Live Translate and Generative Edit. The S24 Ultra added a titanium frame and a built-in S Pen slot. Like the S25, it carries seven years of updates from release.

Galaxy S23 Series

The Galaxy S23 range includes the S23, S23+, S23 Ultra and S23 FE. The S23 was the first Samsung flagship line to use the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy globally, ending the regional Exynos and Snapdragon split, so performance is consistent regardless of which market the unit came from. The Ultra carries a 200MP main sensor and S Pen support. Storage runs 128GB, 256GB and 512GB.

Galaxy S22 Series

The Galaxy S22 range covers standard, Plus and Ultra variants. The S22 Ultra was the first S series model with a built-in S Pen slot, taking over the role the Note line held. The generation still receives security updates.

Galaxy S21 Series

The Galaxy S21 range covers the S21, S21+ and S21 Ultra. It gives you a flagship camera and 120Hz display at the lowest point in the current update window, which makes it the practical entry into recent Samsung flagships.

Galaxy S20 and Galaxy S10

The Galaxy S20 range introduced 120Hz displays and 5G across the series, with the first 108MP sensor on the Ultra. The Galaxy S10 and S10+ still deliver a sharp AMOLED panel and a triple camera. Both generations are past their update window, so they suit calls, messaging, photos and media rather than current AI features.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold Series

The Galaxy Z Fold series pairs a cover display with a larger folding inner screen, which suits split screen work, documents and video.

Galaxy Z Fold 8 and Z Fold 8 Ultra

Announced at Unpacked in London in July 2026, on sale from August 2026. The Z Fold 8 is the new wide format, shorter and broader when closed, opening to an inner display with proportions closer to a small tablet. The Z Fold 8 Ultra is the direct successor to the Z Fold 7 and keeps the tall, thin design, triple cameras and silicon carbon battery. Refurbished supply is minimal at this stage and arrives only through trade-ins.

Galaxy Z Fold 7

Released July 2025. Measures 8.9mm folded and 4.2mm unfolded at 215g, running the Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy with an 8.0-inch main display and a 6.5-inch cover screen. First Fold with a 200MP main camera, alongside a 12MP ultra wide and 10MP telephoto. Storage 256GB, 512GB and 1TB, with seven years of Android upgrades from release.

Galaxy Z Fold 6, Z Fold 5 and Z Fold 4

The highest volume Fold stock, listed from 256GB to 1TB. All three are noticeably thicker and heavier than the Z Fold 7, which is the main difference between generations. All run current One UI versions and support DeX and S Pen input on compatible models.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip Series

The Galaxy Z Flip series folds into a compact square, with a cover screen for notifications, calls and camera framing.

Galaxy Z Flip 8

Launched alongside the Fold 8 in July 2026, on sale August 2026. Thinner and lighter than its predecessor with smaller bezels and improved video stabilisation. Refurbished availability depends on early trade-ins.

Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Z Flip 7 FE

The Z Flip 7, released July 2025, runs the Exynos 2500 with 12GB RAM, a 6.9-inch inner display, an edge to edge cover screen and a 4300mAh battery. It was the first Flip to support Samsung DeX. Storage 256GB and 512GB, with IP48 dust and water resistance. The Z Flip 7 FE, launched at the same event, was the first FE model in the Z series, built on the Galaxy Z Flip 6 platform with an Exynos 2400, 8GB RAM, a 6.7-inch inner display, a 4000mAh battery and 128GB or 256GB storage.

Galaxy Z Flip 6, Z Flip 5, Z Flip 4 and Z Flip 3

Stocked in 128GB, 256GB and 512GB depending on generation. The Z Flip 5 was the first with a large usable cover screen, which is the main usability difference against the Z Flip 4 and Z Flip 3.

Samsung Galaxy Note Series

The Note line was discontinued after the Note 20, with S Pen support moving into the S series Ultra models from the S22 Ultra onwards. If you specifically want the built-in S Pen slot, every Ultra since carries it.

Samsung Galaxy A Series and J Series

The current Galaxy A series generation is the A57 and A37, released April 2026. The A57 runs the Exynos 1680 with a 6.7-inch Super AMOLED at 120Hz, a 5000mAh battery, 45W wired charging and 128GB, 256GB or 512GB storage. The A37 uses the Exynos 1480 with a similar panel and the same battery and charging. Both carry six years of software updates from release.

Samsung removed the microSD slot with the A36 and A56 and has not brought it back on the A37 or A57. If you need expandable storage, look at the A54 or earlier, or buy a higher internal storage tier. Older models including the A14, A35, A55 and A56 remain stocked. The Galaxy J series covers older entry level handsets and works as a second phone, work handset or travel device. Both ranges carry the same testing, grading, warranty and returns terms as the flagships.

Condition Grades

Every refurbished Samsung phone is sold under one of four grades. The grade describes cosmetic condition and battery health, not function. All four are fully working devices with the same warranty and returns window. Full definitions are on the phone grading page.

• Open Box: opened but unused, in original condition with original packaging.
• Like New: no visible marks on the body or screen under normal inspection.
• A-Grade: minimal signs of use. Battery health of at least 85% on older models and at least 80% on newer models.
• B-Grade: visible marks on the body or screen, battery health of at least 80%, fully functional.

B-Grade gives the same function, testing and warranty as the grade above it, with visible marks. Choose Like New or Open Box if you want a device that looks unused. Any category page can be filtered by grade.

What Hardware Testing Covers

Before a used Samsung phone is listed, these are checked:

• Display panel, brightness uniformity, dead pixels and touch response across the full screen
• Front and rear cameras, all lenses, autofocus and flash
• Earpiece, loudspeaker and microphones on calls and recordings
• Charging port, wired charging, and wireless charging on supported models
• Power, volume and side key function
• Proximity, ambient light, accelerometer, gyroscope and fingerprint or face unlock
• Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, NFC and mobile data on UAE networks
• Hinge action, crease area and inner display on Z Fold and Z Flip models
• Measured battery health against the grade thresholds above

Each handset is then checked against the IMEI blacklist, so it is not reported lost or stolen, or blocked by a carrier. The device is factory reset, clearing the previous owner's data and any Samsung or Google account lock, and sold unlocked so it works on any UAE network.

eSIM and Dual SIM

On models that support eSIM, from the Galaxy S20 series onwards on most variants and across the Z Fold and Z Flip range, the eSIM is left intact and ready to activate, and can usually be paired with a physical nano SIM for dual SIM use. Some foldables support nano SIM plus two eSIM profiles with two active at a time. Variants differ between regions, so the SIM configuration is confirmed on each product page.

Warranty, Returns and Delivery

Refurbished Samsung phones come with a warranty of up to 12 months, with the exact term shown on each product page and full terms on the warranty information page. Returns are accepted within 7 days of delivery under our returns policy. Delivery is free on orders above AED 299 and ships across the UAE, including Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman and the northern emirates, with timings on the delivery information page.

Buy in Person at BurJuman Centre

The Phonebot store is at Level 2, Unit 62A, BurJuman Centre, Mankhool, Dubai, next to BurJuman Metro Station on the Red and Green lines, with three hours of free parking at the centre. Phonebot trades in the UAE under licence number 1068439.

In store you can compare a B-Grade against a Like New unit side by side, ask about the measured battery health on a specific handset, and collect instead of waiting for delivery. This matters most with foldables, since hinge feel and the visibility of the inner display crease can only be judged in person.
