I just snapped one of these up. 12 months warranty and from £54.99 for an iPhone 5! Obviously price varies depending on colour, storage capacity, network and condition; however mine is a 'good' condition model, locked to EE, finished in white with 16gb storage, which I think would be a great backup (what I'm using it for) for a contract phone or a good start to smartphone ownership.
Prices aren't very consistant; however I have put a start next to the ones that are really cheap in my opinion. Music magpie are a good retailer on eBay and give you a screen protector, lightning cable, sim removal tool and screen cloth with the iPhones.

Yes they do.
It's an iPhone 5 so it will run the latest version of as fluidly as the iPhone 7, albeit a tad slower in places.
The camera is perfectly capable for a phone as you still have a **** lens and a small image sensor - hence the images look relatively crap anyway.
You don't have a fingerprint sensor but is it so hard to enter a pin?
You have a smaller screen; however wouldn't stop you doing anything really.
There might be some software differences such as split view; however what ordinary users actually use them anyway?
Honestly I would say an S5 can do much of the same stuff as my S7 it just comes down to consumerism. It's not my fault that Apple customers can't see the small differences from one model to the next...

This just seemed unusually cheap to me. I was only looking for a phone to use as a sat nav and music player so I don't need to use all of battery in my S7 edge and it was A LOT cheaper than others on eBay (excluding all of those that are obviously stolen).

Just remember that there are no more software updates from Apple for these.

They're cheap because they are 4 year old phones.

Yes; however they are still capable devices and do serve a purpose today. This still does 80-90% of what the iphone 7 does.

They do, the way apple and samsung bring out these new phones nowadays is a joke.

With iP SE avail from £150ish I can't see how this makes sense.

You seriously cannot see why a phone almost a third of the price of the one you've suggested makes sense? Good lord...

I agree. The only reason I have an S7 edge is because I have a contract otherwise I would have a note 3 or a HTC one M8 and honestly if my phone was to break I would buy one and it would not make a difference to my day to day phone usage.
