You can now buy a refurbished iPhone 6S or 6S plus directly from Apple
Looking for an iPhone 6S on the cheap? You can now get a deal directly from Apple -- if you don't mind buying a refurbished device.
9to5Mac reported Tuesday that Apple has started selling refurbished versions of the iPhone 6S and 6S Plus at its online store.
The company previously sold Macs, iPads and other devices on its online store, but refurbished iPhones were mostly offered on eBay or offloaded to third-party resellers.

The deals we're seeing right now offer 15 percent off of the device's full price. For example, you can get a refurbished iPhone 6S with 16GB of storage memory for $449 (an $80 discount); the version with 64GB of memory goes for $589 (a $110 discount). Only these two models are available.
While buying a refurbished device might not sound like a great option to everyone, remember that these phones come with Apple's regular one-year warranty. Apple also notes that all refurbished iPhone models come with a brand new battery and outer shell.
As is usually the case with refurbished models, supply is limited, so if you're interested, you might want to act fast.
