Questions about each
Gazelle
What condition grades does Gazelle use on refurbished phones?+
Gazelle grades stock as excellent, good and fair, with each grade named on the listing. Because the grades are published as its own help content, a buyer can read the condition before paying rather than judging from photos alone. The range is refurbished phones, refurbished tablets and foldables.
How long do I have to return a device bought from Gazelle?+
The return window is 30 days. On that measure Gazelle sits at 3 in a ranking of 80 brands, which is a strong position for a refurbished specialist where returns matter more than for new kit.
Mozillion
How much does the cheapest phone cost?+
Phones start at £25, which is the price a shopper meets first on the range. That entry point puts Mozillion at 2 of 29 brands on price from. You pay that figure once rather than as a monthly plan, so there is no renewal price to weigh later.
How long is the warranty?+
Warranty runs 12 to 24 months on the handsets sold, which is longer than the median warranty months across the sites compared. Extended warranty is also available if you want longer still. Because the cover sits with Mozillion Ltd, it is a company backed promise rather than a marketplace listing.
