Choosing a refurbished iPhone 12 is a much cheaper option than buying new, but there are a few different factors that can affect the iPhone 12 second hand price, such as:

Condition - You’ll be able to choose from three refurbished conditions:

  • Pristine - a pristine product in excellent working order.

  • Very Good - the device is in very good cosmetic condition with only light signs of use.

  • Good - the device has signs of wear and tear but has been fully tested and is in great working order.

Storage - The price will increase if you choose a larger capacity model.

Network - The second hand iPhone 12 price can also be affected if you’re buying a device locked to a network.

The iPhone 12 is the first to feature 5G, but you don’t have to use 5G if you don’t want to and you can still use 4G networks with the device instead.

To turn off 5G on your iPhone 12, just follow these steps:

  1. Go to Settings, Cellular and then Cellular Data Options.

  2. Choose the option Voice and Data.

  3. Choose the LTE option to switch off the default 5G Auto, you can switch back to using 5G whenever you want.

The iPhone 12 range (including refurbished iPhone 12 models from musicMagpie) are not waterproof but they are water resistant.

Water resistance refers to the device being able to resist a certain amount of water and this is measured using an IP rating.

The iPhone 12 has a rating of IP68 under IEC standard 60529, which means it can be in a maximum depth of six metres of water for up to 30 minutes.

Unfortunately, the iPhone 12 doesn’t come with a charger, but it does come with a Lightning-to-USB-C cable and it still has the normal Lightning port. If you buy a refurbished iPhone from musicMagpie, your device will come with Lightning-to-USB-C cable as standard.

Wondering ‘can you charge iPhone 12 with an old charger?’, yes you can. The standard USB-A charger is safe to use with your iPhone 12 and it won’t damage the battery. Alternatively, you can use a Qi-compatible wireless charging mat with your iPhone 12 but when the Phone gets hotter, the charge is reduced to protect the battery.
