Refurbished iPhone 12

A refurbished, reconditioned, or pre-owned iPhone 12 from Loop Mobile is more than a second-hand device. These iPhones have been previously owned but are meticulously restored to their original operational condition through extensive refurbishment. At Loop Mobile, "refurbished" stands for reliability, value, and quality assurance.

Our refurbishment process includes over 75 detailed checks to ensure that everything from battery life to screen integrity meets our strict criteria. Whether the iPhone 12 was returned shortly after purchase, traded in for the latest model, or sourced from our trusted partners, we ensure it’s in excellent condition before it reaches you. Choosing a refurbished iPhone 12 means embracing top-tier technology while contributing to a greener planet.

Why Opt for a Refurbished iPhone 12?

Powerful Performance with A14 Bionic Chip: The iPhone 12 is equipped with Apple's A14 Bionic chip, one of the most powerful processors in the smartphone market. The A14 chip delivers exceptional performance, making it ideal for multitasking, gaming, and using resource-intensive apps. The 6-core CPU and 4-core GPU provide smooth, fast processing, allowing you to switch between apps without lag, edit real-time videos, and enjoy immersive gaming experiences. Even after its initial release, the A14 chip remains a top performer, ensuring the iPhone 12 handles demanding tasks effortlessly.

Stunning 6.1-inch Super Retina XDR Display: The iPhone 12 features a 6.1-inch Super Retina XDR display, offering vibrant colors, deep blacks, and exquisite detail. Whether watching videos, browsing social media, or playing games, this OLED display provides an immersive and visually rich experience. With HDR10 and Dolby Vision support, you’ll enjoy high-definition content with greater clarity and more accurate color reproduction. The ceramic shield front cover adds an extra layer of protection, making the display more resistant to drops and scratches.

Advanced Dual-Camera System: The iPhone 12's dual-camera system is designed to capture high-quality photos and videos in various lighting conditions. The 12MP wide and ultra-wide lenses deliver crisp, detailed images, while features like Night mode, Deep Fusion, and Smart HDR 3 enhance photos taken in low-light or high-contrast settings. The ultra-wide camera allows you to capture more of the scene, perfect for landscapes, group photos, and architecture. Whether you're a photography enthusiast or just capturing everyday moments, the iPhone 12's camera system ensures stunning results with minimal effort.

5G Connectivity for Future-Proofing: One of the standout features of the iPhone 12 is its 5G connectivity, allowing for faster download speeds, improved streaming quality, and better overall network performance. As 5G networks continue to expand, the iPhone 12 is future-proofed to take advantage of these enhanced capabilities, making it an excellent long-term investment. Whether downloading large files, playing online games, or using video-conferencing apps, 5G ensures smooth, reliable performance even in areas with heavy network traffic.

Sustainability and Savings: Choosing a refurbished iPhone 12 reduces electronic waste and conserves valuable resources. Each reused device represents one less piece of technology heading to a landfill, making it an eco-friendly choice. Moreover, you can experience the latest Apple innovations at a fraction of the cost of a new device, providing exceptional value.

Amazing company. I bought an iPhone Xs 64gb Gold Fair condition straight from their website. It came looking mint, aside from this one scratch on the screen although it was barely even noticeable. Just great, 100% recommended

How do refurbished iPhone 12 models differ from new iPhone 12 models?

Refurbished iPhone 12 models from Loop Mobile are pre-owned devices that have been meticulously restored to their original condition. Unlike new iPhone 12s, which comes directly from Apple, our refurbished units have undergone a previous lifecycle but have been thoroughly tested, repaired, and updated to ensure they function like new. The primary differences between the new and refurbished iPhone 12s are cosmetic conditions and price. While new devices are pristine and carry a higher price tag, refurbished iPhone 12s offer significant savings, often up to 70% off, without compromising on the device’s functionality or quality. This makes refurbished iPhone 12 models a cost-effective and sustainable choice for consumers looking to enjoy cutting-edge technology.

Are refurbished iPhone 12 models reliable?

Yes, like all of our refurbished phones, refurbished iPhone 12 models from Loop Mobile are highly reliable. We take reliability seriously, and each device undergoes a comprehensive refurbishment process that includes 75 detailed checks. This process covers all critical aspects, including battery health, screen integrity, and overall performance. Our skilled technicians use genuine parts for necessary repairs or replacements, ensuring that the refurbished iPhone 12 operates at peak performance. Moreover, each device comes with a 12-month warranty, providing peace of mind and demonstrating our confidence in the quality and durability of our products.

What checks and tests do refurbished iPhone 12 models go through?

Every refurbished iPhone 12 at Loop Mobile goes through an extensive refurbishment process:

  • Data Wiping: We securely erase all previous data from the device, ensuring your privacy and a clean slate for the new user.
  • Hardware Testing: Our experts conduct 75 checks, including tests for battery life, screen responsiveness, button functionality, and connectivity features such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and 5G capabilities. We also test the camera systems, ensuring that features like the dual 12MP cameras, Night mode, and Deep Fusion are functioning perfectly.
  • Repairs and Upgrades: We replace any defective components and pay special attention to ensure the device meets the highest standards.
  • Cosmetic Grading: Each iPhone 12 is graded based on its cosmetic condition, ranging from Excellent to Fair, allowing customers to choose based on their preferences and budget.

Final Inspection: A thorough final check ensures that each iPhone 12 meets our stringent quality standards and is fully functional before being packaged and shipped.

What cosmetic conditions can I expect with a refurbished iPhone 12?

At Loop Mobile, our refurbished iPhone 12 models are graded based on their cosmetic condition to provide transparency:

  • Excellent: Our Excellent iPhones may have very light micro-scratches on the body that are not noticeable with normal use. The screen might show some extremely light signs of use, but these are not visible when the device is in use. These devices function like new, with battery health over 90% as standard.
  • Good: Good devices will have light scratches on the body or possibly a tiny dent. The screen may also show very light signs of use, but these are not noticeable during regular use. Despite these cosmetic imperfections, the device operates like new.
  • Fair: Fair devices exhibit more pronounced cosmetic wear, such as slightly deeper scratches or dents on the body. Screens may have light scratches that are slightly visible when the device is on. 

Each grade reflects only the cosmetic condition, as all iPhones undergo the same rigorous testing to ensure flawless performance.

What is the battery life of a refurbished iPhone 12?

The battery life of a refurbished iPhone 12 from Loop Mobile is rigorously tested to meet our high standards. We guarantee that our devices have an enhanced 90% battery health, which exceeds the typical 80% standard found in most refurbished tech companies. For those seeking even more assurance, we offer devices with a New Battery, providing 100% battery health. Alternatively, if you're a casual user looking for a more budget-friendly option, you can choose a device with an Original Battery, which ensures 80% battery health. While some natural battery wear is expected in pre-owned devices, we ensure that the battery performance is reliable and sufficient for everyday use.

Is buying a refurbished iPhone 12 environmentally friendly?

Absolutely. Purchasing a refurbished iPhone 12 from Loop Mobile is a responsible and eco-friendly choice. By opting for a refurbished device, you are helping to reduce electronic waste and conserve the valuable resources required to produce new smartphones. Each refurbished iPhone 12 represents a device saved from potentially ending up in a landfill, thereby reducing the environmental footprint. Furthermore, the refurbishment process is resource-efficient, as it involves reusing and recycling components. This choice supports environmental sustainability and allows you to enjoy the latest technology at a reduced cost, making it a win-win for both the planet and your wallet.
