Introduction
In today’s fast-paced digital world, owning a smartphone is no longer a luxury — it’s a necessity. But with the prices of new iPhones rising each year, many Kenyans are making the switch to refurbished iPhones. At imarafy, we’ve seen a major surge in demand for certified, tested, and affordable Apple devices. This blog explores why more people are choosing refurbished iPhones in 2025 — and why it might be the smartest move you make this year.
What Is a Refurbished iPhone?
A refurbished iPhone is a previously owned Apple device that has been professionally restored to full working condition. This means:
It has passed multiple quality tests
The software is fully updated
It’s cleaned, formatted, and ready to use
At imarafy, every phone we offer goes through a strict quality process to make sure it’s as good as new — but at a fraction of the price.
The Rise of Smart Spending in Kenya
Kenyan consumers are becoming more financially savvy. Instead of chasing the newest, most expensive devices, they’re asking: “Is it worth it?”
Here’s what we’re seeing:
Inflation and currency fluctuations are making brand-new phones unaffordable for many.
Students, small business owners, and freelancers need premium devices without breaking the bank.
Refurbished iPhones offer a practical balance between performance, durability, and price.

Real Stories, Real Impact
When Mary, a 22-year-old university student in Nairobi, needed a powerful smartphone for online classes and freelance gigs, she didn’t have the KES 100,000 to buy a new iPhone 11. But through imarafy, she got a certified refurbished model for less than half the price — and paid in weekly installments.Today, she uses her iPhone for Zoom classes, editing content, and even running a small online boutique on Instagram.
“I honestly couldn’t tell it wasn’t brand new. It looked amazing, worked perfectly, and helped me get back on my feet,” she says.
