The checks that matter most on a used iPhone
Batteries and screens are where used iPhones cost you, so start there. Open Settings → Battery → Battery Health and treat anything below about 85% as a phone that will need a battery soon. Confirm Face ID or Touch ID sets up and works, and check that True Tone is present — if it is missing, the screen may have been replaced with a non-genuine panel. Test all cameras, and make sure the iPhone is signed out of the previous Apple ID with Find My off, so there is no Activation Lock.
PTA status and your real budget
On an iPhone the PTA tax on a non-PTA unit is significant, so always confirm the status before agreeing a price. A PTA approved iPhone works on Jazz, Zong, Telenor and Ufone with no SIM block and resells more easily. A non-PTA iPhone is cheaper up front but may need a large DIRBS tax to keep accepting local SIMs — verify the IMEI on the official PTA DIRBS portal and add any pending tax so you are comparing genuine, all-in prices.
Buying safely in Faisalabad
A used iPhone is worth protecting properly. Where a listing supports it, request a Mehfoz inspection so a trained inspector checks the device before you pay, and use Buy with Protection on eligible deals so your payment stays safe until you confirm the phone. Buying from a Verified Seller in Faisalabad adds reassurance, and Mehfoz keeps battery, condition and PTA details visible on every listing so you always know what you are getting.
