All hail the glorious Apple brand, beloved by tech connoisseurs across the world (and potentially beyond). If you'd already pledged your lifelong devotion to the iPhone series then you'll be feeling pretty smug right now - we're going to go right out there and say it; we think the iPhone X may be one of the finest mobile phones ever made. Ready to be seduced by a piece of near-pristine phone technology? Come join us dear reader on a handset journey...;)
We put the iPhone 13 model under the microscope for you. Here’s the report on our experiences.
Thinking about buying one of the iPhone 12 models from 2020 but not sure which one? We will help you find out whether the iPhone 12, 12 Pro, 12 Pro Max or 12 mini is the right one for you.
A decision between smartphones with a large display or small smartphones that are easy to fit into your pocket is usually made individually. It all depends on your preferences of course, but while you can stream films perfectly with larger models, a small smartphone offers sometimes understated advantages like light weight, portability and one-handed comfort. Here we show you the best small smartphones currently on the market to help you choose your next small smartphone.
How much does the iPhone 12 cost and where can I find it cheaper?
At Back Market, customers can save big (up to 50% off) compared to the price of new on a certified refurbished iPhone 12 mini. At Back Market we ensure quality is upheld through our minimum 25-point inspection that authenticates functionality, appearance, and security, conducted by industry professionals. Furthermore, we continually monitor our sellers through secret shopping, onsite visits to refurbishment centres, and of course, our customers’ reviews. Our one-of-a-kind Innovation Lab, are at the heart of these operations, and even develops new refurbishment processes that have become the industry standard.
All refurbished devices on our marketplace have been fully reconditioned, cleaned, inspected and tested to the same standards as a new one. Whereas buying “used” or “secondhand” devices means you’re buying the device in the condition the previous owner left it in, without a guarantee of battery life or basic functionality. This is the biggest difference between buying a used or second hand iPhone 12 mini compared to a refurbished one. Understand more about the difference in our detailed article here - What is the difference between refurbished and used electronics?
Refurbished tech is better for the planet than brand new at almost every turn, just read the study conducted by ADME (French Environment and Energy Management Agency). We've summarised it nicely in our article The environmental impact of refurbished tech but the bottom line is the vast majority of refurbished devices have significantly less of an impact on the environment. Staying true to our brand we're also a huge advocate for environmental change. In fact, at the beginning of 2023, we hit a milestone for preventing 1 million tons of carbon emission (CO2e) from entering the atmosphere. You can help contribute to a better circular economy when you shop for refurbished iPhone 12 mini deals instead of buying brand new, giving not only the planet a break, but also your wallet by saving up to 50% off!
We categorise refurbished devices based on the product's cosmetic grades, to make sure you know exactly what you can expect when your device arrives. Watch our What does a Fair, Good, or Excellent refurbished phone look like? YouTube video for a clear breakdown with summarised information below.
No matter the cosmetic grade, every device functions like new.
The Apple iPhone 12 mini is still worth buying in 2024 as it's not only the cheapest mini model in Apple's catalogue, but also because it still possesses comparable features to the iPhone 13 mini. Some of the standout features in the iPhone 12 mini are the A14 Bionic chiop, long battery life, and portable pocket-size design.
