For starters; the price on these phones is great. Between having the reassurance of Amazon buyer protection, and the benefit of knowing the device has been tested for performance, itā€™s well worth it. I needed a new phone fast after my cat knocked mine into the sink ā˜¹ļø Rice fixed it for a while, but it was only temporary before it died altogether. I hate buying phones and avoid it whenever possible. 99% of mine belonged to someone in my family first. And i was good with that. Needless to say, my cat didnā€™t wait for someone in my family to upgrade. I was on my own this time. Okay.... thatā€™s not entirely true. My grandma had an iPhone 7 sitting around so that held me over in the meantime. Going from an iPhone 11 Pro Max to an iPhone 7 wasā€¦.bad. It was too dam small, in every possible way. 32 gigs of memory!! I needed an upgrade. Fast. My 11 year old was bullying me relentlessly. And thatā€™s on me. They had my old XR (formerly my dadā€™s) I scoured FB marketplace. Iā€™d decided upgrade a little, so I could feel better about the switch. I didnā€™t want to feel backed me into a corner by my catā€™s recklessness. I would get a slightly newer model in a fun colour. Marketplace had plenty. Sending message after message from my iPhone 7, I worried. ā€œThis person seems too eagerā€, ā€œthis one has been posted so longā€, ā€œI want a purple, but the only purple one listed has less storage spaceā€ and ā€œthe pretty green one has a small crackā€, ā€œthis guy lives 2 hours from meā€ and ā€œBattery life? Errr last time I checked it was like 74%?ā€¦.no, I canā€™t take a screenshot of it, itā€™s turned offā€ā€¦. ā€œcash only pleaseā€ Etc. So much pressure. What happens if the thing doesnā€™t work? Thatā€™s $300+ down the drain. I knew I couldnā€™t afford new. But I hated the idea of buying something used from a stranger on Facebook. I didnā€™t want to get scammed, and I also didnā€™t want to settle. Thatā€™s when I remembered good olā€™ Amazon. Maybe Iā€™d check there. Just for funsies. Probably out of my budget, but it couldnā€™t hurt. Sure enough, refurbished devices selling ā€œlike new!ā€ Mostly same cost or less than what Iā€™d found so far. Surely there was a catch? I read through everything, tested by Amazon, includes all the specs, unlocked, I can pick the colour, the storage size, the condition, etc. AND I could have it delivered to me tomorrow??! With a warranty?!! I recovered from my brief stint of disappointment after learning the 12ā€™s donā€™t come in yellow. Then fought hard to decide between mint and lavender. The lavender would take an extra day to arrive. Mint it was!! As promised, it arrived the next day. It was in beautiful shape. 128gā€™s, mint green, not a single scratch, 86% battery life. All for less than I would have paid to some stranger for a 64g with some ā€œsmall scratchesā€ Once my case and screen protector arrived I excitedly set it up and synced my data. Oh no. The FACE ID DIDNT WORK šŸ˜­ After becoming used to facial recognition, having that yanked away, and dealing with a 7 for over 2 weeksā€” I was desperate for the convenience of Face ID. I had been using my fingerprint. Like a *caveman*. Not to mention I have Blink 182 tickets, and it specifically states facial recognition is required to access the mobile tickets. Idk if thatā€™s true, but I needed Face ID!! I googled, I contacted apple support. Fixing it could be upwards of $300. Thatā€™s almost what I paid for the whole phone!! I realllllly didnā€™t want to be stuck without a phone again. But I also wanted one fully functioning. So I reached out to Amazon support and explained. The rep was incredibly helpful (as most Amazon reps are) and after bts failed, she advised the ship was a 3rd party seller, and she send a message to them. ā€œIf they donā€™t fix it by (insert date) contact us back and weā€™ll make this rightā€ she encouraged. Iā€™m ngl. I was nervous. I didnā€™t have high hopes, having dealt with 3p sellers on Amazon in the past. At least Amazon had my back, ig. The concert wasnā€™t till July. Even without facial recognition, it was loads better than the 7. I could make do in the meantime. The seller came in clutch though, and my worry was unwarranted. They responded within minutes. They were receptive, apologetic, and more than willing to help. As Iā€™d anticipated, they offered a refund or exchange, as soon as they received the return. I explained my concern with not having a phone for several days or more; and the merchant offered to overnight a replacement as soon as the return was dropped off. I could deal with one day without a phone! I gratefully accepted. That was Saturday night, we made plans to catch up Monday for the return instructions and for them to overnight it. Monday I reached back out; and they were ready to ship, BUT they *had no more greenā€¦.* šŸ«¢ SHOCK ā€œā€¦do you have purpleā€ No. :( just blue, white, and black. THIS WAS A HUGE BUMMER.Itā€™s silly I know, and the definition of *first world problems ā€œ.. but I meanā€¦. My change of heart about this whole phone thing HINGED ON THE FUN COLOUR. Without it, I was just a personā€¦out $350ā€¦ because my cat was thirsty while I was watching YouTube while washing dishes. I needed a cool colour. Plus, Iā€™d already gotten the matching case! Clear with mint green borders. It wasnā€™t even a fun blueā€¦ it was a dark, serious, navy blue. It was pretty and classy, but I wanted something fun. I even asked if he had any older models in yellow šŸ˜­šŸ˜­ no luck, They told me theyā€™d be restocking in a day or so. Still, no greens or purples came in. Ugh. Reality was setting in. I was going to have to settle. It was fine, I thought. At least it would be a fully functioning phone. No. I wasnā€™t ready to let go. They assured me I could take my time to decide, and I asked if we could wait another week in case one came in. If it didnā€™t, *then* I would choose from the options available. I messaged them Wednesday afternoon, bracing myself for the answerā€¦. THEY GOT IN PURPLE! YAY. They sent a label, I dropped it off, sent a photo, and had my new phone the next morning. theyā€™d said overnight shippingā€¦ but wow! Iā€™d dropped off the return around 3pm, and had the replacement by noon the next day. I didnā€™t even have my new case yet šŸ˜… Despite the Barney-Esque colour scheme my mint green case created, the lavender is GORGEOUS and Iā€™m actually sort of glad the green didnā€™t work out. Donā€™t get me wrong, the green is also gorgeous.. but in the end Iā€™m glad I ended up with the lavender. I was overjoyed when I was prompted to set Face ID during setup. Worked brilliantly, as did everything else. Great packaging, no cosmetic flaws, amazing battery life, customer service was great, and best of allā€¦ ITS PURPLE! Canā€™t wait to pair it with the new case. Iā€™m so glad I went this route where I have some peace of mind as a buyer. Iā€™m grateful to the seller for being so helpful and patient with me as insufferable as I must have seemed making such a fuss over colour preference If youā€™re nervous buying a phone used or refurbished too, hopefully you can take comfort in knowing- this seller is legit. You receive a good quality product, and, speaking from experience, theyā€™ll gladly help resolve any issues you may run into. ... show more

  • Excellent condition
Size: 64GB Color: Purple Service Provider: Unlocked Product grade: Renewed
My reason for purchasing an iPhone was probably different than most people. I have a Samsung phone that use daily and I am very happy with it. It is on a carrier that is not one of the "big names". It suits my purposes fine. My mother invited me to accompany her to Europe. This is a once in a lifetime trip for me, but I soon realized my inexpensive Samsung phone would not work there. Believe me, I tried. The best way to have a working phone while in Europe so I could stay in contact with my business was to invest in an iPhone. I decided on the iPhone 12 and bought a refurbished one. I researched the sellers and their profiles before ordering. I finally decided on MOBILESUPPLY because they have an incredibly high rating. They did not disappoint! The first phone I purchased was purple. It arrived in excellent condition visually. No scratches, no marks and actually looked like a brand new phone. It charged up to 82% which was great. Everything was wonderful. Then I set it up (which took me a couple of YouTube tutorials being a long time android user). I couldn't hear on the phone without using my earbuds or having it plugged into my vehicle. I thought maybe it was me, so I tested it with several people calling them and having them call me and finally I gave it to my husband, then son to get their opinion. Nope, wasn't me. MOBILESUPPLY answered my question immediately and it was no issue to replace the phone. They sent a prepaid label and the same day they received my phone they shipped a new one out to me. The replacement phone was blue, but that isn't an issue. It charges to 93% and again, appears brand new. It works great, I can hear and now I am ready to go on my trip with my Mom. This entire experience was a lot of research and I am so glad I bought from Amazon, and picked the seller I did. My advise is to think of your needs for purchasing a "new" phone and to do your research on sellers. Amazon offers an amazing choice to pick from. Hope that helps. ... show more

  • Great Phone, Minor Flaws, but Worth It!
Size: 64GB Color: Red Service Provider: Unlocked Product grade: Renewed
I purchased a refurbished iPhone 12, and overall, Iā€™m quite satisfied with my experience. Hereā€™s a breakdown of my thoughts: Performance: The A14 Bionic chip delivers impressive performance. Everything from browsing to gaming has been smooth and responsive. Iā€™m glad I chose this modelā€”I can easily multitask without any noticeable lag. Condition: The phone arrived in good condition overall, with minimal signs of wear. However, I did notice a few light scratches on the screen that werenā€™t mentioned in the description. While they donā€™t impact functionality, it was a bit disappointing. Camera Quality: The camera takes fantastic photos, and the Night Mode feature is a game-changer. I love capturing memories, and this phone does an excellent job, even in tricky lighting situations. Battery Life: The battery life is decent but could be better. I find myself needing to charge it by the end of the day, especially with heavy usage. Itā€™s not a dealbreaker, but I was expecting a bit more endurance. Value for Money: Considering the savings compared to a brand-new device, this refurbished iPhone 12 offers great value. For anyone on a budget, itā€™s a solid option. In summary, I highly recommend the refurbished iPhone 12 for anyone looking for a reliable smartphone. Just be sure to check the condition carefully beforehand. Happy with my purchase overall! ... show more
