Apple iPhone 16 A3081 256GB in Ultramarine — Wholesale A/B Stock
Built for enterprise device fleets, corporate refresh programs, and procurement teams, the Apple iPhone 16 launched in September 2024 with a 6.1-inch Super Retina XDR OLED display with Dynamic Island, the Apple A18 chip, 8GB of RAM, a 48MP main camera with a 12MP autofocus ultrawide and Camera Control. Power comes from a 3,561mAh Li-Ion battery with wired USB-C PD2.0 charging. It is rated IP68 (immersible up to 6 m for 30 minutes). It runs iOS 18 at launch, upgradable to iOS 26. The device measures 147.6 x 71.6 x 7.8 mm (5.81 x 2.82 x 0.31 in) and weighs 170 g (6.00 oz). This lot is the A3081 in the 256GB configuration, Ultramarine, unlocked and graded A/B Stock.
Matching model numbers across every unit keep provisioning, case selection, and spare-parts planning predictable for fleet managers. An IP68 rating supports rollout to warehouse, field, and healthcare settings where dust or moisture exposure is expected.

Enterprise Deployment and Management
Units in this lot run Apple's operating system with the hardware-backed Secure Enclave protecting biometric data and encryption keys. Organizations can add the devices to Apple Business Manager or Apple School Manager and deploy them through Automated Device Enrollment, with supervision and policy delivered by MDM platforms such as Microsoft Intune, Jamf Pro, Kandji, and VMware Workspace ONE. Managed Apple Accounts and per-app VPN support separate work data from personal use. Confirm the current security patch level on each unit before enrollment, because older models may be outside the manufacturer software support window.
