Excelente productoCompré el teléfono con Buyspry y muy satisfecho en general. La calidad se vendía 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.
Venía con 84% de batería lo cual es aceptable. Aunque por ser tan pequeño y con la degradación de la misma no lo recomendaría para alguien que lo quiera usar un día completo sin cargar.
Vendedor recomendado para iPhone (ya he comprado 3 con este y todos bien).
Iphone 12 Mini Review In 2024 Gotta Watch This (verified owner) –
Awesome phonePhone came in excellent condition and was very easy / user friendly to set up. It came with a fresh tempered-glass screen protector, already on it. No visible damage noticed. The price was great, for receiving a fully unlocked iPhone with such a large storage capacity (256). The battery life on this specific model (iPhone 12 mini) isn’t the best, compared to other iPhones. But I think that’s just the model, not the condition the phone came in. The periwinkle/purple color this comes in is magnificent. I upgraded from my perfectly functional iPhone 11, simply because I wanted more storage and something even smaller. If you’re someone like me that is slow to upgrade their iPhone and wants to keep it small, this is a great, sustainable upgrade choice.

Enamorada de mi IphoneEl iPhone 12 mini es una excelente opción para quienes buscan un teléfono compacto sin sacrificar rendimiento y calidad. Su diseño atractivo, potente procesador y capacidades fotográficas lo hacen destacar en el mercado de smartphones. Sin embargo, la duración de la batería y el tamaño de la pantalla son aspectos a considerar, dependiendo de las necesidades del usuario. Es una opción ideal para quienes priorizan la portabilidad y el uso diario.

DON’T BUY ITI 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.

Great deal for the priceI got the “excellent condition” and the overall appearance is great. Very very minimal scratches and very little signs of wear and tear. I think it’s possible the screen has been replaced because the screen is not as sensitive as I would expect and sometimes I have to click on stuff more than once. No issues with the side buttons or either camera. My only real “gripe” with this phone is the battery health, which is at 78%. I would have thought excellent condition would have gotten me somewhere in the 80% range. That being said, it’s a back up phone so I don’t have it in constant use. For someone who was using it as their main phone, the battery drain would be a major issue. It does charge pretty fast and no issues with the charging port. The box came with the charging cord and the little pin device to get the SIM card tray out. It was unlocked and easy to link to my T-Mobile account. Overall I’m pleased with the product.

For a "renewed" iPhone it was just like brand new from what I could tell.Awesomely fast shipping. For a "renewed" iPhone it was just like brand new from what I could tell. The iPhone 12 Mini is a classic and it is great a company is refurbishing them making them available in basically brand new condition

Had Some IssuesHad this phone for 8 months, upgraded from an iPhone SE 2nd Gen, to and then to this iPhone 12 mini to a iPhone 16 Plus. I was really happy for the price ~$350. I was getting FaceID and I missed the 5 so I got something smaller. Besides the longer delivery time than what I'm used to on Amazon, it arrived and worked great. No issues. Until a couple of months in, I went to take a shower, came out and then the FaceID stopped working. I tried to return it and forgot what issues there was with the whole process. I still have it, one day the FaceID jsut came back to normal. To this day it still works great.
I remeber the customer service being acceptable at best and then the phone just stopped working. To avoid more issues I just bought a new phone.

Great Value iPhone – Like New and ReliableI was honestly expecting this purchase to be a bit of a gamble, but I was very pleasantly surprised. The iPhone arrived in like-new condition—no scratches, no performance issues, and everything worked perfectly right out of the box.
The screen is bright and clear, the phone feels solid and durable, and it charges quickly. I also appreciated that it came fully unlocked, which made setup with my carrier easy and hassle-free. Another nice bonus: I had multiple color options to choose from, which isn’t always the case with refurbished phones.
The only downside I’ve noticed is that the battery doesn’t hold a charge as long as a brand-new phone, but it’s still more than usable for a full day with moderate use. If needed, a battery replacement down the road would still make this a great deal overall.
If you’re looking for a quality replacement iPhone at a great price, this is probably the best option I’ve come across. Definitely recommended!
