Description
Apple iPhone 16 A3081 256GB in Teal — Wholesale A+ Stock / CPO
Built for enterprise device fleets, corporate refresh programs, and procurement teams, the Apple iPhone 16 was announced in September 2024 and released on September 20 as the 6.1-inch model of Apple's standard iPhone 16 line. Its Super Retina XDR OLED display (1179 x 2556, about 460 ppi) reaches 2,000 nits in bright light under a Ceramic Shield front, and the Apple A18 processor, built on a 3 nm process, is paired with 8GB of RAM. The rear system combines a 48MP wide camera with sensor-shift stabilization and a 12MP ultra-wide, and the 12MP front camera records 4K video. A 3,561mAh battery supports wired USB-C, MagSafe wireless charging up to 25W, and Qi2 charging, and the aluminum body is rated IP68 for immersion to 6 m for 30 minutes. Units launched on iOS 18 and are upgradable to later iOS releases; Apple publishes no software update commitment. The handset measures 147.6 x 71.6 x 7.8 mm and weighs 170 g. This lot is the A3081 (the United States model, dual eSIM with no physical SIM tray) in the 256GB configuration, Teal, unlocked and graded A+ Stock / CPO.
This model fits standard-issue business fleets, field operations, and refresh programs, and the compact 6.1-inch size suits staff who carry a phone all day alongside scanners, tablets, or tools. An IP68 rating supports rollout to warehouse, field, and healthcare settings, with immersion protection to 6 m for 30 minutes. The A+ Stock / CPO tier delivers near-new presentation for executive issue and customer-facing roles at a lower unit cost than new stock, and the 256GB configuration leaves room for offline maps, line-of-business apps, and photo documentation over a long assignment. Dual eSIM on the US model lets IT provision work lines remotely without shipping physical SIM cards.

Enterprise Deployment and Management
iPhone 16 units enroll in Apple Business Manager through Automated Device Enrollment when an authorized reseller or carrier assigns them to the organization; secondary-market units can be added with Apple Configurator for iPhone, which places them in Apple Business Manager with a provisional period during which users can remove supervision. Supervised devices are then managed through MDM suites such as Jamf Pro, Microsoft Intune, Omnissa Workspace ONE, and Kandji, covering Managed Apple Accounts, app distribution, per-app VPN, restrictions, and Activation Lock management. Face ID and the Secure Enclave protect credentials and on-device data, and eSIM profiles can be provisioned to users without handling physical cards. On-device specifications are listed in the Technical Specifications below.
