Apple iPhone 12 Mini, US Version, 64GB, Black - Unlocked (Renewed)

It’s a great phone! For an older model. I bought this phone for a friend of mine as I currently have the black IPhone 12 mini. It’s a great phone very comfortable and reliable great charging and fast. Easy to use with apps and everything else. It’s definitely worth the price. It fits easily in the hand. And it’s durable as long as you have it in a case

I love the phone, it works great, currently using it to type the review lol, I love the fact that’s it’s small, the quality is great, no lag, great audio on calls, screen is in great condition along with the battery health, looks like a brand new phone

I rarely write reviews, but in this case, I think people should be warned. I’ve been through four of these phones in a couple months, and they have all had major issues from Camera not working to audio issues, and the worst of all one COMPLETELY DIED after four months. Unfortunately, the Amazon warranty is only three months. (I thought it was one year because other competitors offer that. But it does clearly say on their page that it’s only three months.) During these three months, they to completely refund you no problem or fix the issue that you report. But unfortunately the phone I kept died on month four, while I was on vacation to make matters worse. Seems like the sellers are always different stores, but all amazon approved and they follow some sort of Amazon standards for these phones. But it seems to me that these phones have really severe issues so these Amazon sellers fix the phones to a certain standard, but they are not in good condition. All the sellers are polite and responsive, but the issue is the actual phones and their conditions. Even though these phones are used, they are not cheap, they should function properly. I’ve been an Amazon customer for years and I really haven’t had any issue with them. That was the reason why I decided to buy the used phone on Amazon instead of a competitor. But this is truly disappointing to the point that I think I’m going to report them to the Better Business Bureau. They should not be selling phones in this condition. FULL STORY Phone 1: iPhone 12 mini (Ordered good condition ) Received Mid October Seller: Kojak sales When I receive the phone physically it seems fine. But as soon as I put a case on it, a lot of little pieces of paint started coming off of it and then you could tell it had a lot of scratches on the case so somebody was trying to cover the scratches, then I put a screen protector on it, and after trying to I could not get rid of a humongous huge bubble, took a third of the screen. So some thing was hinting to me that the screen was not straight. In my opinion, the phone shouldn’t have been sold as good condition with so many scratches but since I don’t care about the look as much as functionality, I move forward. But then, after a few weeks of using the phone, I realized things were not working properly. The camera was very slow at taking pictures if it was dark or if you were using inside the message or WhatsApp. Also, if I received a text while listening to videos or video calls, the speaker would suddenly gets super low, and I could barely hear the video for about two minutes . (usually this lowering of audio feature happens only for five or 10 seconds). This was worrying me so I contacted the seller and told him I wanted to change the phone and he said no problem. Since I was still thinking that this was bad luck, but in general, I liked the iPhone 12 I decided to buy another phone as a replacement, and one more phone as a Christmas gift. I’ll explain below the problems with those phones, but since the problems were actually worse than the current first phone I had in my possession, I never gave back this phone. I kept thinking that maybe the issues would get better with update and also, in my mind, I thought I had a year warranty. Unfortunately, in February while away on vacation the phone one morning, simply never turned on again. My dad is an engineer and he tried helping me connect it to computer and nothing it’s like the battery is no longer connected. I’m sure you can imagine the horrendous time I had the following week without my phone., traveling.. Things got worse when I got home and was able to contact the seller. I then discovered the warranty was only 90 days and that date had passed. After some back-and-forth the seller Kojak sales said they can fix it for $39 and I pay for shipping. I have still not done this since I’m skeptical and don’t understand how they can give me a price if they don’t even know the actual problem or if they need parts. But I really have no other option, or I lose $241 or I pay $60 more. (also, I have to figure out how to erase the phone from a PC if the phone doesn’t even turn on. I’m sad I’m gonna lose all my pictures from the last four months) After I send them the phone, I will update this review. -Phone 2 and 3- iPhone 12 mini (Ordered good condition ) Received Mid begging of december Seller: Wilzee So one of these phones was supposed to be replacement for my phone and the second phone was gonna be a Christmas gift. But the first one was so scratch that I didn’t even set it up and I gave it back, no problem and the other phone after giving it as a gift, a little embarrassed with all the scratches, we set it up and realized the camera did not focus at all so I also gave this phone back and received a refund no issue. -4th Phone- iPhone 12 mini (Ordered EXCELLENT condition ) Received mid January Seller: PDI Mobile This phone did actually look really good in the outside barely any scratches. I was very happy with the look. But after setting it up again, the camera could not focus so we contacted the seller and sent it back and they fix the camera then after a few weeks of using also, it has audio issues. We’re looking at social media videos suddenly that audio lowers a lot. Since at this my 1st phone died suddenly we decided to give this 4th phone back. I don’t wanna take any chances since the quality of the phones is clearly not good. I don’t expect an issue with the refund. But I will update this review if I do.

Nothing wrong with it no scratches or dents very nice easy to use charges great it’s good for the money I paid no fingerprint reader it’s Face ID

I've had my Apple iPhone 12 mini in the beautiful mint green color, and overall, it's been a great little phone. The camera has been consistently good, capturing clear and vibrant photos and videos, which I really appreciate. From the moment I got it, there were no visible defects. It felt and looked premium. I also absolutely loved the size of this phone; it's so comfortable to hold and use with one hand, fitting easily into any pocket. Plus, it came with plenty of storage, so I've never had to worry about running out of space for my apps and photos. My main frustration, however, is that the battery seems to run out very quickly, especially since I first got it. It struggles to last a full day with moderate use, and I often find myself needing to charge it much sooner than I'd like. This has become a noticeable issue over time. Despite the battery life, the compact design, excellent camera, and ample storage still make it a solid choice. It's a fantastic phone if you prioritize a smaller form factor, but be prepared to keep a charger handy. Works exactly as I needed it to. It is unlocked so I was able to take it to Google fi and have no problems with compatibility.

So far so good seems to be easy to use. It seems to be durable for the price I paid. I think it’s really good. It’s much better than going to the carrier and trying to buy one. It’s very lightweight. I love it. It’s just like my iPhone 12 mini that I got from AT&T. It looks good. I love the color. Feels good smooth no issues yet the charger I can say it’s not a compatible charger. It definitely is not one that goes with the iPhone so I expect to have some type of charging issues in the future. I just have to see now if it can be activated with my carrier so I will definitely be back with an update also there was a notice in the settings stating that his battery is not a true iPhone battery therefore, it’s not compatible with this phone, so I’m sure that will also cause some type of issue but again we will see.

Excellent condition is A+ Some small scratches but barely noticable. Camera takes great pictures. No issues with start up. I would definitely buy from this seller again. Edit: I used apple wallet and it's the only place I added my card in the phone and the next thing I know I got a ton of random purchases on my card from apple which had the worst customer service. When I first got the phones I manufactury reset each one and did apple updates. I did a few returns to get a good phone. If your phone screen isn't fitting well and always bubbles it's defective screen. I got mad at the wrong pple for the screen protectors not working. The camera takes good pictures though. Much better than other phones. I do need to convert the pics though as the phone puts it in an apple format. This is just good to know. You need to look up and convert all your pics of you want them sharable on other devices. I would get this phone again, but you need to know not to put your credit card info into the Apple pay app. I was getting random monthly charges not on my account from apple. Something is wrong w apple pay wallet app. A lot of people have had their info stolen. I wasn't sure if it was because it was refurbished, but it looks more like little data breaches from the app. The only place I put all my card deets was in Apple pay app. This is just good to know.

The first iPhone 12 mini I ordered was from WirelessSource in Excellent condition. It arrived with many chips on the case, a scratch on the display that was not noticeable with the display on, 79% battery Maximum Capacity, and the wide angle camera unable to focus (the ultra wide camera worked). Fortunately it was easy to get return authorization after sending them an out of focus picture taken with the camera. I was disappointed that an Excellent phone was delivered in less than Acceptable condition, but it worked out better for me. The second iPhone I ordered was sold by S?? in Premium condition and delivered by Amazon, for only $13 more than the previous iPhone. This phone arrived in its original box and looked new. I thought maybe it was new, until I checked the battery maximum capacity, it was right at the 90% threshold for a Premium phone. After using the phone a few weeks I did notice one pin prick size nick on the side if the sun hits the phone at the right angle, and the battery capacity dropped to 89%. After using the phone for 6 months the battery capacity is still 89%, and I'm very happy with the purchase. I just ordered another iPhone 12 as a gift, in Premium condition, sold and delivered by Amazon.
