TL;DR: Woot has a collection of refurbished Apple iPhones on sale for as low as $79.99 through the end of the day (Monday, April 11). Choose from the iPhone 6 Plus, 6S Plus, 7, 7 Plus, 8, 8 Plus, X, XR, or XS.
No one’s doing the “absurdly cheap Apple devices” thing better than Woot. (Yes, we’re still reminiscing over that $175 iMac.)
As of April 11, the Amazon-owned daily deals site has a bunch of older refurbished iPhones listed for well under $300. These offers are only live through the end of the day or while supplies last — which may not be long, considering several configurations are sold out already:

-
iPhone 6S Plus — $99.99 to $119.99 (16GB, 32GB, or 64GB in silver, space gray, or rose gold)

Finding a big-name smartphone on sale in the $100 to $200 range or lower feels like a “say less!” moment, but these do benefit from a few caveats. For one thing, all of them are labeled as “S&D” (Scratch and Dent), meaning they’re tested to work good as new but come with a moderate level of wear and tear. Keep in mind, too, that the iPhone 6 Plus is so old that it doesn’t receive iOS updates anymore; you’re stuck at iOS 12.4 if you opt for that one.
That being said, these older models are definitely still worth a buy in 2022 if you just need a basic backup phone for calls and texting (or if you really, really miss the headphone jacks of yore). Even if you just get a year or two out of it, at least it was cheaper than dirt.
