Typically they come without original packing and accessories. To ensure comfort of further users, warranty is added with them. Technically it is a used phone but it is better then bought from any random user.

Based on condition these might be categorized as:

• Grade A: new looking condition and no major signs of handling.
• Grade B: may have minor scratches or signs of being used.
• Grade C: will show signs of being used.

With the brand new phones we also compare cheap offers of refurbished phones. We put an indicator (refurb), within the deal; if no such indicator is present then it’s a new phone.

What is a cashback deal?

You may have found few contracts on Sony Xperia XA1 Ultra, inclusive a cashback. It can be redeemable or automatic in nature. It reduces your effective cost of the overall contract but doesn’t effect on your monthly payments. Few retailers may have shown it as discounted monthly line rental but we have shown it separately to make it clearer.

• Automatic Cashback: as the name suggests, it is paid to you directly by the retailer at the set period of time of your contract.
• Redeemable Cashback: it is usually higher than the automatic cashback for the same plan offered. But you need to claim it at the set intervals during your contract period. 

We recommend you to clarify all cashback related queries at the retailer’s website, as the terms may vary for different retailers.
