Why used Non PTA is the cheapest way into iPhone
PTA approved iPhones carry the full PTA tax, which on an iPhone is among the highest on any phone. A Non PTA iPhone is the same phone without that tax, so the price is much lower. The trade-off is that a local SIM works only for a limited period unless you register it on DIRBS later.
Add 'used' and the price drops again. Our iPhone 11 to iPhone 15 series are slightly used Non PTA units with 100% battery health shown on each page, so you know the condition before you order. Read what is a Non PTA mobile (What Is a Non PTA Mobile? Everything You Should Know) if you are new to this.
iPhone under 30000 in Pakistan
At the lowest budget, the iPhone 11 (iPhone 11) is the usual pick. It has a 6.1 inch screen, the A13 chip, dual 12MP cameras and a 3,110 mAh battery, and it is still a reliable everyday iPhone. Its one big limit is 4G only.
The iPhone SE (2022) (iPhone SE (2022)) and iPhone 12 mini (iPhone 12 mini) also sit near this range. Both have 5G. The SE has a small 4.7 inch screen with Touch ID, and the 12 mini a 5.4 inch OLED screen with Face ID. Battery life is shorter on both, so they suit lighter users.

A little more money brings the iPhone 12 (iPhone 12): 5G, an OLED screen, MagSafe and the A14 chip. For most buyers it is the best cheap iPhone because it fixes the iPhone 11's biggest gaps. The iPhone 11 Pro (iPhone 11 Pro) is another option at this level if you want a telephoto camera in a compact body, but it stays 4G.
At this budget, always check storage. A 64GB iPhone fills up quickly with WhatsApp; 128GB is safer.
iPhone under 50000 in Pakistan
Around 50 hazar, the choices widen. The iPhone 13 mini (iPhone 13 mini) gives the A15 chip and better battery than the 12 mini. The iPhone 12 Pro (iPhone 12 Pro) adds a 2x telephoto and LiDAR. Compare these with mobiles under 50000 (Under 50k) if you are also open to Android flagships, which offer bigger batteries at this price.
iPhone under 70000 and under 1 lakh
This is the value sweet spot. The iPhone 13 (iPhone 13) and iPhone 14 (iPhone 14) still run the latest iOS smoothly, take excellent photos and have IP68 water resistance. Moving towards 1 lakh brings the iPhone 13 Pro Max, iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max with 120Hz screens, and the slightly used iPhone 16e (iPhone 16e), which is the cheapest new iPhone we sell.

Cheap iPhone traps to avoid
Very low prices often hide a problem: - iPhone copy or China iPhone: an Android phone made to look like an iPhone. Our guide on how to check an iPhone is original (How to Check if an iPhone Is Original or Fake) shows how to spot one. - JV iPhones: carrier locked, and the SIM may stop working even after PTA tax. - Very old models like the iPhone X, XR, 8 or 7: cheap, but no longer get the newest iOS and the batteries are usually worn. - Water pack or heavily repaired phones; see water pack phone meaning (Water Pack iPhone Meaning in Pakistan (and How to Check One)). - Low battery health below 85%, which means a replacement soon.
Which cheap iPhone should you buy?
- Lowest budget, basic use: iPhone 11.
- Want 5G on a budget: iPhone 12.
- Want a small phone: iPhone 12 mini or 13 mini.
- Student or first iPhone with long life ahead: iPhone 13.
- Cheapest new slightly used iPhone: iPhone 16e.
