iPhone 12 Mini

Product Overview

The iPhone 12 Mini represents a significant evolution in Apple's smartphone lineup, combining advanced technology with a compact design.


One of the most notable changes since the iPhone 11 series is its size and weight. The iPhone 12 Mini is the smallest model in the iPhone 12 lineup, featuring a 5.4-inch Super Retina XDR display, which provides a stunning visual experience with vibrant colors and deep blacks.


This compact size makes it more portable while still delivering a high-quality viewing experience. In terms of performance, the iPhone 12 Mini is powered by the A14 Bionic chip, which offers a notable boost in speed and efficiency compared to the A13 chip found in the iPhone 11.


This enhances everything from gaming to multitasking, providing a smoother experience and improved graphics performance for demanding applications. Another significant upgrade is the introduction of 5G connectivity.


The iPhone 12 Mini supports both sub-6GHz and mmWave 5G, allowing for faster download speeds and improved streaming capabilities, which is a substantial leap forward in mobile technology compared to the iPhone 11, which only supported 4G LTE.


The design of the iPhone 12 Mini has also been refreshed with a more angular model, reminiscent of the iPhone 4 and 5, offering a modern aesthetic. It features a ceramic shield front cover that provides enhanced durability and better drop performance.


The phone is also rated IP68 for water and dust resistance, making it highly resilient. Camera improvements include better low-light performance thanks to the improved Night mode, which is now available on all cameras, including the front-facing camera. The dual-camera system continues to excel, with enhancements in Smart HDR and the introduction of Night mode Time-lapse for creative photography.


Battery life in the iPhone 12 Mini is comparable to previous models, despite its smaller size, and it supports MagSafe technology, allowing users to easily attach compatible accessories and experience wireless charging at up to 15 watts. Overall, the iPhone 12 Mini brings remarkable advancements in performance, connectivity, and design, making it a powerful device in a compact form, standing out in the Apple lineup as an excellent choice for those seeking a smaller smartphone without compromising on features.

How to prepare to sell your iPhone 12 Mini

Selling your iPhone 12 Mini can be a great way to earn extra cash while ensuring your device gets a second life. To maximize your resale value and ensure a smooth transaction, follow this step-by-step guide.

Step 1: Determine your iPhone 12 Mini’s Functionality & Condition

Grab your iPhone 12 Mini and determine which Eco Toreda Condition Standard best describes it.

  • Screen & Body: Look for scratches, dents, cracks, or discoloration.
  • Buttons & Ports: Test all buttons, charging ports, and any other connectors.
  • Battery Health: In general, a battery with 80% or more battery charging capacity is considered Good. If yours is less than 80%, choose Poor Battery.
  • Performance: Ensure your iPhone 12 Mini powers on, responds correctly, and connects to Wi-Fi/Bluetooth.
  • Accessories: Grab the original iPhone 12 Mini accessories (charger, power cable) are available and functional.
Step 2: Remove Personal Data from Your Device

Before handing over your iPhone 12 Mini, erase all personal data to protect your privacy. Follow these general steps:

  1. Back Up Your Data: Use cloud storage or a computer to save important files, contacts, and photos.
  2. Sign Out of Accounts: Deactivate any connected accounts (e.g., Apple ID, Google, Samsung, Microsoft) to prevent activation locks.
  3. Factory Reset your iPhone 12 Mini: Navigate to the settings menu and select “Reset” or “Erase All Content.” Ensure the process is complete before shutting down the device.
  4. Remove External Storage (If Applicable): Take out SD cards or SIM cards before packaging.
Step 3: What to Bring

We'll pack and ship your iPhone 12 Mini for you but remember to bring the following items:

  • Power Cable & Charger: The original iPhone 12 Mini adapter and cable add value and make the device more appealing.
  • Original Box & Packaging (If Available): Providing the original box improves presentation and protection.
  • Accessories: Include any extras that came with the iPhone 12 Mini, such as a stylus, dock, or protective case.
Step 4: Final Touches Before Selling

A clean and well-presented device makes a big difference. Take the time to do the following:

  • Remove Stickers & Decals: Any personal markings or stickers should be peeled off carefully.
  • Clean the Device: Wipe down the screen and body with a microfiber cloth and an alcohol-based cleaner.
  • Check All Ports: Inspect charging, audio, and other ports to ensure they’re free of dust and debris.

By following these steps, you’ll ensure a smooth selling process while maximizing the value of your iPhone 12 Mini. Happy selling!
