Review on Renewed Apple iPhone 12 Mini, πŸ“± 64GB Green for AT&T - A Compact Powerhouse by Nguyen Kim Chi ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Satisfied with the purchase one hundred percent, I recommend the product for everyone.

I waited a long time for this update, but I'm still on iOS 8 because Apple's penchant for releasing "shovel phones" baffles and annoys me. Rejecting Touch ID made it appear that all that was needed to make a perfect smartphone was to get rid of the bottom frame and shorten the top one, like with the 12 mini. The rounded edges of earlier models didn't allow them to stand, and even while shooting without a case, they continuously threatened to slip out of your hands, but the newer models' flat bottom edges make it possible to photograph selfies from a farther distance or lean against a window for a better signal. The screen got brighter and the colors were more intense, but overall I was still pleased with LCD displays. The camera, of course, has improved considerably between the X and 8th generation models. The quality of images taken at night with the X and the 12 mini is clearly different due to the night mode. Everyone is frustrated by the battery life, but compared to the iPhone 8, it has a greater capacity (1821 versus 2227 mAh): it should comfortably last through a day of heavy use (Internet, social networks), with 20-30% of its charge still remaining by the end of the day. I bought some samples for an upcoming exhibition from an authorized Apple reseller, and I can assure you that none of them have edges so sharp that they could cut the purchaser. The paint also peels off quickly from the side faces, another telltale sign that you're dealing with a knockoff. It was also mentioned that the glass is quite fragile and can get scratched even with gentle handling; nevertheless, I might not have gotten a single scratch after a week of use because I carefully carried it in my pocket with my keys. Fast and responsive, Face ID has a near-perfect recognition rate of 99.5%. (sometimes it still asks for a password). When worn low enough, a mask doesn't even need to be removed to reveal the face. I used to be against Face ID, but now that I've tried it, I see its benefits: speedier unlocks, less need to touch the screen to see alerts, and private viewing. I have some words of wisdom for everyone.
