    I bought the Xiaomi 12 with high hopes, but the authorities changed me to a Redmi phone. I am very disappointed. If it is later available in the back market, how will I know and I want to buy it?

    This is the first time I've bought a refurbished mobile phone and I'm not disappointed! The product description is accurate, no nasty surprises. The phone was described as being in "perfect condition" and it is. Apart from the condition of the battery, which must not be 100% (but over 85%), I can't think of anything that could be better. The seller even supplied the original box and a used shell, but I appreciate that.

    The mobile phone is good. The condition is really excellent. Unfortunately, it is not the Xiaomi 12 but the Xiaomi 12 X. This has a less powerful processor, no inductive charging and no 6GHz WLAN. As these functions are not primarily required, I have not complained about it. However, please note that what was offered was not delivered.

    Coming from a Redmi 8 lite (which is a mobile works quite well) the quality of this Xiaomi 12 is appreciated, although the model is already a few years old works very smoothly, both in daily use and Android Auto wireless, nfc chip, wireless charging ... everything you expect from a high-end mobile, The battery goes very well and I have not found physical signs of use or wear, so money well spent instead of investing triple in a new one that will serve me the same as this one.

    Not bad, however the perfect condition is not respected. There are a few marks from drops on the corners of the phone. What's more, the battery seems weak. For a very typical and limited use during the day, the phone is empty around 5pm. It does have 67w charging, but the 67w block isn't supplied, so I have to buy it separately. Otherwise, the screen is in excellent condition and it works perfectly.

    Sometimes the touchscreen no longer responds to touch and starts to act on its own by opening random applications... There's also a problem with the colours, which seem to be lacking... And the edge of the touchscreen loses precision when I want to select a cross to close a window, for example, it doesn't react all the time... And the battery drains quickly... otherwise everything's fine!

Reborn vs. brand new

Here’s what you help prevent on average by choosing a reborn smartphone over a brand new one.

77.3 kg of carbon

That’s like driving an old banger from London to Edinburgh and back.

6.3 oz of e-waste

That’s around the weight of a baseball.

537.1 lbs of raw materials

That's like 20 dogs digging in your yard for a week.

77,000 litres of water

That's like running a faucet for 3 days
