iPhone XR price in Nigeria by storage
Storage is the only thing that moves the price of an iPhone XR. Every variant carries the same 3GB of RAM, so capacity is what you are paying for. Here is each one, priced separately for brand new and UK-used stock.
| RAM / Storage | New range | New typical | UK-used range | UK-used typical | Offers checked |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3GB / 64GB | no verified new stock | not published | ₦130,000 to ₦245,000 | ₦175,000 | 11 used |
| 3GB / 128GB | no verified new stock | not published | ₦135,000 to ₦220,000 | ₦180,000 | 7 used |
There is no brand new iPhone XR stock worth quoting in Nigeria. Apple stopped selling this model years ago, so what you see advertised as new is almost always refurbished, repackaged or simply mislabelled. Treat every iPhone XR as a used phone and price it accordingly.
How many iPhone XR units are actually for sale in Nigeria
We counted 110 active listings for the iPhone XR: 79 advertised as brand new and 31 as used. That puts the used share at 28%.
This is still predominantly a new-phone market. Used supply has not built up yet, so the few resale units that appear are priced by sellers who are not competing with each other. Expect to pay closer to new money for used stock than you would on an older model.
Listing depth matters more than most price pages admit. A model with 110 live offers gives you a real market to negotiate inside. A model with twenty gives you whatever the seller in front of you decides.
iPhone XR against the rest of the iPhone X series
Within the iPhone X series the iPhone XR sits in the middle. Here is the whole range side by side, each model priced at the storage tier with the deepest verified supply.
| Model | RAM | Display | Storage priced | New typical | UK-used typical |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| iPhone XS Max | 4GB | 6.5 in | 256GB | ₦300,000 | ₦230,000 |
| iPhone XR | 3GB | 6.1 in | 64GB | none | ₦175,000 |
| iPhone XS | 4GB | 5.8 in | 64GB | none | ₦160,000 |
| iPhone X | 3GB | 5.8 in | 64GB | none | ₦130,000 |
The iPhone X is the cheapest way into the iPhone X series at ₦130,000, which is ₦45,000 less than the iPhone XR. Whether that gap is worth paying comes down to the camera and the display, because the chip is close enough across the range that day to day speed will not separate them.
If you would rather watch someone put these side by side than read a table, this covers the whole generation:
What else ₦175,000 buys you right now
The most useful question about any phone price is not whether it is fair, it is what the same money buys somewhere else. At ₦175,000 for a used iPhone XR 64GB, these are your live alternatives across other generations.
The line worth reading twice is the iPhone SE (2022). It is 4 years newer than the iPhone XR for roughly the same money, the kind of trade the Nigerian used market throws up constantly and almost nobody prices for.
iPhone XR review: what you are actually buying in 2026
The iPhone XR shipped in 2018 with an an A12 Bionic chip and a 6.1 inch display. At 8 years old the question is no longer whether it is good, it is whether it still gets software updates and whether the battery has anything left.
Watch that before you pay, not after. Almost every complaint we hear about a used iPhone purchase in Nigeria is something the buyer could have seen in a ten minute review.
Grading a used iPhone XR
Sellers in Nigeria grade by eye and call almost everything A-grade. Price against battery health and originality instead. These are the bands we would pay at the 64GB tier.
- A₦185,000 to ₦245,000
Battery 90% or above
No visible scratches, original parts, seller can show the box or receipt
- B₦162,000 to ₦185,000
Battery 85 to 89%
Light scuffs on the frame, screen unmarked, no repair history
- CBelow ₦162,000
Battery Below 85%, or not stated
Visible wear, replaced screen or battery, or a seller who will not show the health screen
What to check before you pay
- 01Battery health. Settings, then Battery, then Battery Health and Charging. Under 85% means a replacement is due, and that is real money in Lagos or Abuja. Make the seller open this screen in front of you.
- 02Activation lock. Settings, then General, then Transfer or Reset iPhone. If the seller’s Apple ID is still signed in, walk away. An iCloud-locked phone is a paperweight and no technician can fix it.
- 03Face ID. Test it, and test it twice. A failed or missing Face ID almost always means the phone has been opened, and it cannot be repaired with third party parts.
- 04Lightning port. Bring your own cable. Ports on imported units are often full of pocket lint or corroded, and one that charges slowly today will stop charging soon.
- 05Serial and IMEI. Dial *#06# and check the IMEI against Apple’s coverage page. A mismatch between the printed serial and the software serial means replaced parts. Our guide to spotting fake phones covers the rest.
If you are buying UK-used specifically, read our UK-used phone buying guide first. It covers what the label actually means, which is not what most sellers imply.
Where these prices come from
New prices come from verified retail listings on Jumia and Konga. UK-used prices come from active retail listings on Jiji. Across the iPhone XR we reviewed 110 listings: 79 advertised as brand new and 31 as used.
We exclude iCloud-locked and carrier-locked units, bulk and wholesale offers, listings with no stated condition, and prices sitting more than 40% from the market median. We publish a range only where at least four comparable offers survive that filter. Chip, display and release year come from Apple; RAM comes from GSMArena, because Apple does not publish it.
Prices last verified: 12 September 2026. Nigerian phone prices move with the naira, and our naira and phone prices explainer covers why. Confirm with the seller before paying, and report a price correction if you see something wrong. Every model we track is indexed on the Apple iPhone price hub.
