Apple iPhone 6 Plus 16 GB Space Gray, Factory Refurbished, GSM unlocked
Factory Refurbished iPhone 6+ Plus, 16 GB, Space Gray, 4G LTE, GSM unlocked. Reconditioned to close-to-new working order rather than graded on cosmetics, this is the configuration export dealers buy by the carton when the end customer wants a big-screen iPhone and the price matters more than the finish.
The iPhone 6 Plus is Apple's first large-format iPhone, launched in September 2014 alongside the iPhone 6. It carries a 5.5-inch 1080p Retina HD display, the 64-bit A8 chip, Touch ID, NFC for Apple Pay, and the only optically stabilized camera of that generation, with a battery that runs well past the smaller model. It shipped on iOS 8 and received updates through iOS 12, and it was the first iPhone generation to support VoLTE.
Dealers buy the 6 Plus from TG Wireless as an inexpensive big-screen iPhone for export markets, prepaid counters whose carriers still accept the model, and repair and refurbishing shops that want tested units with the larger display.

Condition: Factory Refurbished
Factory refurbished units have been reconditioned to close-to-new working order. They are not brand new and may show light signs of handling. TG tests and grades each unit before it ships. Tell your account manager whether you need units with the original box and accessories or handset-only packs; the mix varies by lot.
Network and compatibility
The iPhone 6 Plus is a 4G LTE phone with VoLTE, so the US 2G and 3G shutdowns do not take it off the air; whether a given carrier still activates it depends on the exact model (A1522 for the GSM carriers, A1524 for Verizon and Sprint) and the carrier's current device policy, so confirm before buying a lot for activations. Most listings here are GSM unlocked, while the carrier-return lot does not state a lock; see the network status line in the table. Unlocked units take a nano-SIM and register on GSM and LTE networks abroad.
Resale fit
- Export dealers who sell a 5.5-inch iPhone at an entry price into GSM and LTE markets in Latin America, Africa, and Asia.
- Prepaid and MVNO counters whose carrier still accepts the iPhone 6 Plus for VoLTE service.
- Repair and refurbishing shops that want tested 6 Plus units for resale or as donors for the 5.5-inch display and battery.
- Marketplace sellers listing a low-cost big-screen iPhone for light users and seniors.
