Here’s another great deal on Apple gear, with $229 off a 16, 64, or 128 gigabyte iPhone 6 or 6 Plus. You can still buy the last-generation handset over at Apple, but only in the 16 or 64 gigabyte configurations, so if you’re looking for a high-capacity iPhone 6 or 6 Plus, this is your day.

These iPhone models are still fantastic, and this deal is kind of amazing, especially if you pay up front for your iPhones these days to save a bit of money in the long run.

The Groupon page’s “original prices” are off by quite a bit, saying that a 16 gigabyte iPhone 6 is $999. In fact, Apple will sell you a non-refurbished 16 gigabyte iPhone 6 for $649.

Still, the Groupon deal is offering the same handset, albeit refurbished by a third party, for $420, a savings of $229. There are all colors and varieties, including Rose Gold (except the 64 gigabyte option in that color; that seems to be out of stock at Groupon).

However, if you’re in the market for a Rose Gold 128 gigabyte iPhone 6 Plus, a model you can’t even buy over at Apple for any price, this is the place to go with your $580 (itself less than the price of a new iPhone 6 Plus 64 gigabyte iPhone at Apple).

The iPhone 6 line of smartphones come with Retina HD screens, a speedy A8 chip and M8 co-processor, a 8 megapixel camera that can film in 1080p resolution (and a selfie camera that can film in 720p), Touch ID, and Apple Pay. These iPhones are GSM and come unlocked so you can use them with any GSM carrier, like AT&T.

At these prices, you can’t go wrong.
