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. Review: Excellent Condition Phone - Mobile supply is a great store. The phone I received was in excellent condition and works great with a good battery life. Hardly and noticeable light scratches on the cover in two or three spots. So light you can’t see from 12” away. Excellent phone and two day service. Can’t wait to get a second phone from this company when they list another one like this at the same price. ## Features - This device is locked to T-Mobile only and not compatible with any other carrier. - Please check with your carrier to verify compatibility. - When you receive the phone, insert a SIM card from a compatible carrier. Then, turn it on, connect to Wi-Fi, and follow the on screen prompts to activate service. - The device does not come with headphones or a SIM card. It does include a generic (Mfi certified) charger and charging cable. - Tested for battery health and guaranteed to have a minimum battery capacity of 80%. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B08PP2BVKM | | Battery Description | Lithium-Ion | | Battery Power | 7.5 Watt Hours | | Best Sellers Rank | #860 in Cell Phones & Accessories ( See Top 100 in Cell Phones & Accessories ) #15 in Renewed Smartphones #20 in Cell Phones | | Biometric Security Feature | Face Recognition | | Brand | Apple | | Built-In Media | Apple iPhone, Charging Cable, SIM Removal Tool | | Cellular Technology | 5G | | Color | Black | | Connectivity Technology | lightning | | Connector Type | USB Type C | | Customer Reviews | 4.0 out of 5 stars 17,329 Reviews | | Display Type | OLED | | Form Factor | Bar | | Item Dimensions | 5.78 x 2.81 x 0.3 inches | | Item Weight | 7 Ounces | | Manufacturer | Apple Computer | | Memory Storage Capacity | 256 GB | | Model Name | iPhone 12 mini | | Model Year | 2020 | | Operating System | iOS 15 | | SIM Card Slot Count | Dual SIM | | Shooting Modes | Night Mode | | UPC | 753575954581 686457009454 724129018400 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | 90 days | | Water Resistance Level | Not Water Resistant | | Wireless Network Technology | CDMA, GSM, LTE, Wi-Fi | | Wireless Provider | T-Mobile | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Apple - **Cellular Technology:** 5G - **Color:** Black - **Connectivity Technology:** lightning - **Memory Storage Capacity:** 256 GB - **Model Name:** iPhone 12 mini - **Operating System:** iOS 15 - **SIM card slot count:** Dual SIM - **Wireless Carrier:** T-Mobile - **Wireless network technology:** CDMA, GSM, LTE, Wi-Fi ## Images ![Apple iPhone 12 Mini, 256GB, Black - T-Mobile (Renewed) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61wXQ2urbLL.jpg) ![Apple iPhone 12 Mini, 256GB, Black - T-Mobile (Renewed) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41VaXY4p3uL.jpg) ![Apple iPhone 12 Mini, 256GB, Black - T-Mobile (Renewed) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/419sMMfWydL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Service Provider, Color, Size, Product Grade** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: How big is it** A: It’s slightly smaller than iPhone 8 and SE, but screen is bigger **Q: Can you get me one with 100% battery life?** A: I believe the only way that you can get a 100% battery is to buy a brand new phone...?!

My current purchase of the 12 mini is replacing my 8 that I bought brand new back when it came out in like '15-'16...? Which still works great and I love it though I can tell it's getting a little tired but right now at this moment the older iPhone 8 256gb has the battery capacity of 80%! **Q: Funciona para movistar en México?** A: Funciona en Ponce, PR, USA con cobertura de ATT sin roaming. **Q: Does it has country code?** A: It works with simple mobile ? And work out of Country with GSM? ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It just might be iight ! *by S***A on February 21, 2026* So far so good seems to be easy to use.

The phone I received was in excellent condition and works great with a good battery life. Hardly and noticeable light scratches on the cover in two or three spots. So light you can’t see from 12” away. Excellent phone and two day service. Can’t wait to get a second phone from this company when they list another one like this at the same price. ### ⭐ DON’T BUY IT *by C***. on February 16, 2025* 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. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/457869974-apple-iphone-12-mini-256gb-black-t-mobile-renewed](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/457869974-apple-iphone-12-mini-256gb-black-t-mobile-renewed) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-05-31*
