Business Counterpoint research: Refurbished iPhone Volumes Grew 16% YoY Globally in 2022

The global secondary smartphone market witnessed a 5% YoY growth in 2022, according to Counterpoint Research’s Global Refurb Smartphone Tracker, amidst the increasing demand for refurbished smartphones worldwide. However, the growth rate could have been higher if not for the steep decline of 17% in China''s refurbished smartphone sales - marking one of the most significant drops in years for the Chinese secondary market. The plummeting sales were largely due to factors such as the resurgence of COVID-19 and implementation of "COVID-Zero" policies that impacted business and demand in the country. Nonetheless, India emerged as a leader in the global refurbished smartphone market with a YoY growth rate of 19%, followed closely by LATAM with 18% YoY growth.
