What is a refurbished device?
A refurbished device is a pre-owned item that has been restored to meet high-quality standards. At Reboot IT, we adhere to strict quality guidelines, ensuring that our refurbished products are not the same as used or secondhand items. We meticulously clean, test, and assess each device, replacing worn parts with high-quality components.
Unlike used items, which lack guarantees and rely solely on the seller's word regarding condition, refurbished devices come with assurance of quality and reliability.
What payment options are available?
We offer a variety of payment options to make your shopping experience as convenient as possible! You can pay using all major credit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Shop Pay, Afterpay, Zip Pay, and PayPal. If you prefer, we also accept bank deposits and even cash for in-store purchases!

Apple's 2011 classic with a 3.5-inch Retina display, dual-core A5 chip, 8MP camera and Siri. Network unlocked, professionally tested, and backed by a 12 months Reboot IT warranty. Please read the network note below before buying.
The iPhone 4S was a landmark handset: the glass-and-steel design, the first Retina display generation, the A5 chip and Siri. As a piece of hardware it is still well built and pleasant to hold, and it runs its final iOS release smoothly for what it was designed to do.
The critical thing to understand is the network situation. The 4S supports 2G GSM and 3G only. Telstra, Optus and Vodafone completed their 3G shutdowns between December 2023 and September 2024, and none of them run 2G. That means this phone cannot register on any Australian mobile network - no calls, no SMS, no mobile data, and no emergency calling.
What it does do is work completely over Wi-Fi. It is a capable music and video player, a camera, a clock and alarm, a photo frame, and a device for older iOS apps. It is also a sound choice as a collector's piece, a prop, a spare parts donor, or a first device for a child where you actively do not want cellular connectivity. Buy it for those uses and it is excellent value; buy it expecting a working phone and it will not be one.

Can I use this as a phone in Australia?
No. The iPhone 4S is a 3G handset, and all three Australian carriers completed their 3G shutdowns by September 2024. It cannot make calls, send SMS, use mobile data, or place emergency calls on any Australian network. We state this plainly because it is the single most important thing to know about this device.
So what can it actually do?
Everything that does not need a mobile network. Over Wi-Fi it browses, plays music and video, runs older iOS apps, takes photos and video, and works as a clock, alarm or remote. It is a fully functional iPod touch equivalent with a better camera.
What iOS version does it run?
iOS 9.3.6 is the final release Apple shipped for the 4S. Most modern apps and many websites will not work on it, and it no longer receives security updates.
Is the battery new?
No. This is an original battery in a device from 2011, so expect substantially reduced capacity. Grade A units hold 70%+ and Grade B units 50-70%, and both carry a 30-day battery warranty.
Is it really unlocked?
Yes - it is not locked to any carrier. That said, being unlocked does not help in Australia given the 3G shutdown. It may still register on 3G networks in countries that still operate them.
What shipping options are available?
Free standard shipping is included Australia-wide on this item. Orders are dispatched from our Melbourne warehouse, professionally packed for safe transit.
Every unit sold by Reboot IT is professionally tested, cleaned, and graded before dispatch. We have been refurbishing IT equipment in Melbourne since 2001 and back this unit with our standard 12-Month Warranty on hardware. Free standard AU shipping is included with this item.

Fantastic service
I was looking for an in-expensive all-in-one solution for my home office to replace my existing desktop and monitor. I found this EliteOne 800 on reboot IT for under $200. I wasn't sure what to expect. It arrived within two days!!!! I upgraded the RAM, replaced the HDD and installed Windows 11. This is unbeatable value and was the cheapest price online. Coupled with a 3-month warranty, Reboot IT are by far the best online refurbished retailer I have used. Awesome!
Great service. Product in great condition and exactly what i want. I wanted this for a specific purpose but i dont need to spend $900 on a new one.
Excellent work
exactly as described and works well , just like the staff down there. 10/10
Very happy, thank you
