Frequently asked questions
Are the phones unlocked?
Check the listing. Many are, and SIM-free phones work on any UK network, which lets you move a fleet between contracts.
How long will a phone get security updates?
It varies by manufacturer and model. Recent iPhones and flagship Android phones typically get five years or more; budget models often get less. For a business fleet, favour a longer window over a lower price.
Can we manage the phones centrally?
Yes, with a mobile device management (MDM) platform such as Microsoft Intune or Google Workspace. Apple Business Manager and Android Enterprise zero-touch let new phones enrol automatically once set up with your provider.
iOS or Android for a team?
Pick one per team where you can. A single platform means one set of policies, apps and support steps. Mixed fleets work, but double the testing.
Can we buy on account?
Yes. A trade account gives access to trade pricing, bulk discounts and credit of up to £20,000, with a named account manager for repeat orders.
Equipping a whole team?
Trade pricing on volume, credit up to £20,000 and a dedicated account manager.
