The iPhone 5s first arrived in 2013, at the same time as the brightly-coloured iPhone 5c. For the 5s, Apple kept the same design as the previous iPhone 5 - complete with a four-inch screen, blocky build, and smooth aluminium frame - but boosted the processors and the camera. It was also the first iPhone to have Touch ID for added security.

Though it may have been a welcome innovation at the time, this smartphone is a bit outdated now. If you bought an iPhone 5s 16GB, you probably upgraded to a newer iPhone some time ago - and likely filled up the 16GB of storage space too.

Not as many recyclers will buy an iPhone with water damage, but some certainly do. To sell yours, choose the 'broken' condition to see offers. Check the terms and conditions of the recycler once you've clicked through if you're not sure whether they'll accept a water damaged phone.
