Cliff notes: -GREAT price -No/minimal cosmetic damage -77% battery health (not ideal) -Efficient customer service resolved issues I'm upgrading from an iPhone SE so this feels like a massive jump! I believe I purchased a phone in "Good Condition" for $195. The phone, cosmetically, was perfect! No noticeable scratches on the screen or the cameras. There is a tiny little chip on the border/metal but once a case is on, you don't even notice it. Amazon guarantees all phones will have battery health of at least 80%, but mine came at 77%. I contacted the seller who recommended I return the phone and they will send a replacement. I really didn't want to have to wait another 2 weeks or so to have a new phone (my SE is glitching like crazy) so this was less than ideal. I proposed a partial refund and was able to get a refund for 20% of the price. (I'm upgrading from an SE with 82% battery health and have no issues with battery life. I've gotten used to carrying a charger around with me everywhere. Even at 77%, this 12 mini has a longer battery life haha). Overall, I think I spent 15 minutes chatting with customer service so it wasn't a huge burden or hassle. I really do appreciate that. So was the item as described? No, but I feel like it was made right. The phone came with a non-authentic charging cord but no wall plug. Not really an issue since I already own a charger for my current phone, but it's worth noting. Overall, $150 doesn't seem like a bad price for a phone!

Being annoyed by iPhone size creep, I decided on a 12 mini to get back to a pocket-able device. Always missed my 4S that you could stick in a shirt pocket. If I want to screen big enough to read a book I'll grab an iPad. This is small and light enough to take everywhere and hardly notice it. Having said that it replaced an iPhone 8 and the screen actually measures slightly larger than the 8 does since it doesn't have a border at the top and bottom. Am pleased with the quality of the renewed device; it came with barely a scratch, maybe a little rubbing on one edge but not noticeable with the Otter case on it. No scratches or flaws on the face glass. The battery shows 85% capacity which I was disappointed about at first but seems to be better than what many other reviewers are reporting. The phone arrived 3 days earlier than the estimate which was nice. Came with a charge cable as advertised. Rated down a star not for any quality issue but because the price dropped by $10 during the time I ordered it and the day it arrived.

I got this phone one year ago. Its my first iPhone. Pros- Came in essentially perfect condition appearance wise, no scratches or damage. I personally like the size, not too small not too big. Cons- Battery life is terrible, I have to charge it a few times a day. When I got it the maximum capacity was at either 84-86%, now it’s at 80%. Camera isn’t that great, photos look dull like there’s no color saturation. Laggy at times with loading, whether I switch between WiFi or phone service it’s the same. Storage isn’t great either at only 64GB. All in all it’s probably a good starter iPhone for a child but as an adult it’s lacking in some areas.

I’ve used a variety of iPhones over the years, including the iPhone XR, iPhone 12 Pro, and now the iPhone 15 Pro. With all that experience, I can confidently say the iPhone 12 Mini is an excellent choice for anyone looking for a compact, high-performance phone. It packs all the essential features of the iPhone 12 into a smaller, pocket-sized form that’s easy to carry around. The 5.4-inch Super Retina XDR display is sharp and vibrant—perfect for watching videos, browsing, and using apps. The screen might be small, but it’s still incredibly clear and bright. Powered by the A14 Bionic chip, the phone runs smoothly whether I’m multitasking, opening apps, or just browsing. It’s fast, responsive, and performs seamlessly. The camera system, with Night Mode and Dolby Vision HDR video, takes excellent photos and videos for everyday use. While it’s not quite as powerful as the higher-end iPhones for photography, it still does a great job capturing everyday moments. I use the iPhone 12 Mini for all my on-the-go tasks, and it’s been a perfect fit. It’s compact, easy to carry, and handles everything I need—social media, maps, watching videos—with ease. The battery life is solid, and with 128GB of storage, there’s more than enough space for all my apps and media. For around $250-$300, the iPhone 12 Mini offers incredible value. It’s fast, reliable, and provides a premium iPhone experience without the high price. If you’re looking for a high-quality, compact phone that delivers excellent performance, I would highly recommend the iPhone 12 Mini!

The phone was in great condition I thought it was not a good battery however im sure i was mistaken, it could have been a bad charger I threw the charger away i used the first time I charged it because it wasn’t working very well

First time buying a used phone and I'm very happy with this purchase. The phone came nicely packaged and with the charger and cord. The phone is in perfect condition. The battery has greater than 80% capacity. Everything works fine.

Seamos realistas, llego con raspones a los lados pero no tiene abolladuras, viene con una mica ligera que cumple su funcion y hasta la fecha no me ha fallado, la bateria llego de 80% pero de igual forma no me quejo por el precio

Ya casi medio año de uso y todo perfecto. La baterÃa llegó al 100% y funciona como nuevo. Yo busco teléfonos pequeños y este está de 10.

Compré el teléfono con Buyspry y muy satisfecho en general. La calidad se vendÃa como excelente y más allá de pequeñas marcas de uso en los laterales. La parte frontal viene con una mica que cubre la planta que no pude revisar. La parte de atrás del teléfono impecable. VenÃa con 84% de baterÃa lo cual es aceptable. Aunque por ser tan pequeño y con la degradación de la misma no lo recomendarÃa para alguien que lo quiera usar un dÃa completo sin cargar. Vendedor recomendado para iPhone (ya he comprado 3 con este y todos bien).
