Renewed Premium Quality ✅
Note that this review is based on 24 hours with the device, and will be updated at a later time if any issues arise. I selected the iPhone 13 mini 512GB in Starlight color, sold and shipped by Amazon, refurbished premium. The phone arrived as expected during the delivery window, which was a couple of weeks after purchase. It arrived in a sealed Amazon Renewed box, which contained the phone (with a protective sticker on the screen) and a USB-A to lightning cable. The body of the phone appears to be in like-new condition, no visible defects at all. The screen does have a couple of small scratches, but these are only noticeable on white screens - invisible in dark mode. I also immediately installed a glass screen protector, so the scratches can’t be felt now. Battery health shows as 100% and is noted as genuine. Thus far, battery life seems to be performing as expected for a new battery. I did notice the phone gets warm during charging - but not hot. The first few hours of use also caused it to heat up - but after all of the background downloads and system updates completed, that seems to have gone away. All things considered, super happy to have a small phone again. Will keep this for as long as Apple supports it, and I hope, like the rest of you, that another small device comes to market! ... show more

Dead battery, do not buy.
Size: 128GB Color: Blue Service provider: Unlocked Product grade: Renewed Premium
The battery is completely dead. It won't charge past 1%. It allowed my original iPhone to start the process of transferring data over but stopped after it added my passcode and WiFi info. Other than that, the phone is completely useless. I cannot access any settings, no drop down menu to even to check the battery percentage. The phone said in order to complete set up, the new IOS needs to be updated yet you cannot download the update unless the phone is at 20% battery. Now my passcode and wifi are attached to a phone that I am returning. I tried to restore it on my computer but it keeps showing an error message and on the phone, it shows the apple support website. This is absolutely ridiculous. I received a certificate showing a list of items tested on the phone and it's signed off by a "specialist", clearly this was not tested and this certificate is fake. I am incredibly frustrated, I spent over an hour trying to restore this broken phone before returning it but that is impossible. I wouldn't trust this seller, battery testing is one of the simplest things to do on a phone, this should have never happened. What a waste of time, energy and money. ... show more

Been searching for a “brand new” iPhone 13 mini and my son had recommended Hybrid IT & glad I did!
Size: 128GB Color: (PRODUCT) RED Service provider: Unlocked Product grade: Renewed Premium
Where do I begin? The package arrived earlier than expected, the package was delivered in good condition. When you open the “Amazon renewed premium” white cardboard box you will find the device, (in my case it is the iPhone 13 mini in (product) RED. Upon inspection the device had no visible signs of any cosmetic damage whatsoever. The device booted up with no problems and it was an absolutely stunning experience for us, (my son especially) in the box, you get a receipt from the seller and warranty information, a card with the phones IMEI with a checklist of the 20+ point inspection along with the testing specialist’s signature. The battery health percentage was at a lower 92% which was a bit lower than I’d expected given the last device had a full 100% battery health percentage. It did give me an option to add AppleCare + (which I did) and as far as I can tell there’s been nothing on here that has had to be fixed, repaired or replaced. The camera is excellent and just what you’d expect from a 13 model, the small but not too small screen fits perfectly in your hand, you can put it in your pocket without having a huge bulge, the most comfortable iPhone since the iPhone 5s/SE first Gen. I did drop the device in the few minutes I didn’t have my case on and it dented the top left corner of the back of the frame near the camera bump. The fall was only about an inch and a half so it’s a first in my entire life of owning an iPhone where I got a dent from a two inch drop and it’s irking me that I can’t get it fixed. But I have had an iPhone mini before, both models and the durability is top notch if you wear a case. Camera quality is amazing, especially when you consider that it is almost 3 years old now! I would rate this seller as well as the item a solid 10/10! Definitely recommend and if you’re hesitant, don’t be. Their customer support is extremely friendly and reliable. I want to give a shout out to Hybrid IT Support for their service and help me get the right product for my son’s birthday! Although I wish I would have went with the blue color and more storage. I will definitely be buying from this company again! ... show more

Probably one of the most practical options out there
Size: 128GB Color: Midnight Service provider: Unlocked Product grade: Renewed Premium
In brief; The iPhone 13 Mini is the smallest flagship on the market; this makes it the most practical phone for those who mostly use their smartphone as a communication device and little besides. A screen protector is a must. The Renewed Premium phone arrived in excellent condition and has given me no issues in six months of use. I recommend it. In detail: ---Preamble--- I didn't buy a cell phone until mid-2008, and didn't buy a smartphone until early-2019. Both decisions were provoked by starting a new job. I've never been a heavy phone user; I receive less than twenty-five texts from actual humans a year, and maybe a phone call every other month. I only use my smartphone for calls, texts, checking email/calendar, navigation, alarm, and on occasion, checking into events or to take pictures. My app usage is limited to train tickets. As a result, I don't need much from my phone. I like having something fairly powerful, so it will run smoothly for as long as possible before I have to replace it. I didn't want anything too expensive, which is why I ignored Sony's offerings. I wanted a decent support cycle, which is why I ignored the Zenfones. I wanted something with reliable HW, which is why I didn't go with a Pixel. I wanted it to have WiFi calling/texting. I specifically wanted something small and compact, as my main complaint about my prior smartphone was how large it was. I would have replaced it earlier, but it was an Android and since the demise of the Sony Xperia Compact line there were no US-market small Android smartphones produced by anyone. I didn't want to make the transition to the Apple ecosystem, since this would be my one and only Apple device, so I dragged my feet even for a year after my old phone stopped voluntarily connecting to the cell network. Eventually I decided that I spend more time carrying my phone around than using it, and therefore form factor was more important than OS. ---Review--- I would never have purchased this at its original retail price, but it was definitely worth it at $450, particularly with the Amazon Renewed Premium Program. It arrived in a condition indistinguishable from new, at least to my eye. Setup was easy enough, though despite assertions otherwise the automated process of moving Android data to the Apple was not perfectly smooth and I had to make a number of adjustments after the fact. As a result of making this transition, I still run my Google apps on the iPhone - Authenticator, Calendar, Mail, and Maps in particular. I don't plan on changing those any time soon, but it does introduce some confusion into the workflow on the phone. For current Android users, there are some significant downsides. The loss of the ability to customize the environment is painful, even after six months. I am fairly technically capable and so appreciate the ability to make minor tweaks and adjustments to everything, and iOS constantly fights you on this. I would like my small icons back, and my ability to arrange them as I see fit. The lack of robust gesture/tap support, and limited gadget/widget customizability means you need to spend more time navigating than before. iOS's reputation for a janky file system presentation is well deserved, it can be hard to tell where files are going or have gone. In a non-Apple environment, HEIC complicates file storage and backup, though there are workarounds. The messaging app, for who knows what reason, doesn't have an archive option and just lists every conversation you've ever had in one long list on the main page, and requires an extra tap after the swipe to delete anything. There's no easy way to skip or snooze all alarms. All things I can put up with, though for the first month I was rather stroppy. I adapted to the UI quickly, but again I only use very few functions on the phone in my day-to-day life. I was able - with some frustration - to pair a set of Samsung Galaxy Buds, though you can only configure them through an Android device. Build quality seems excellent; however, do not take this phone out of its package unless you have a screen protector waiting for it. I was uncommonly gentle with this thing for the four days I was waiting for the protector to arrive, storing it in a pocket which had a clean cotton handkerchief padding the screen, and I -still- ended up with a significant enough scratch that it is still visible under the screen protector in direct sunlight. Don't risk it. HW and SW performance in contrast is flawless. I agree with the common sentiment that the iOS experience is very smooth, though I may be biased on account of my previous phone being on its way out at the time of transition. Battery life for me is probably two days and well into the third. That sounds good, perhaps, but my screen-on time is very low - I'm guessing between zero and ten minutes a day, with most of it on the low end, the only exception being during navigation. It is not unusual for multiple days to pass where my only interaction with my phone is to turn off the alarm. I would expect longer battery life under such circumstances, but I suppose that so long as it lasts all day it doesn't really matter. Lastly, I would say the sacrifice for the form factor was definitely worth it. I keep my phone in a cargo pocket and it is much lighter and less bulky now, especially when crouching down. 100% worth prioritizing that feature. ---Conclusion--- Like I said above, if you are like me - you are someone who doesn't need a lot of screen real-estate, power, or extensive battery life, but still wants to have the full functionality of a smartphone for irregular use, this is probably the best choice on the market. It was worth the transition from Android and the ongoing annoyance of Apple's eccentricities of design. I would recommend it, and will consider getting the next iPhone Mini, if Apple ever releases one. ... show more

I got the premium version and it came in a sealed box that said "Amazon Renewed". Very well packaged. The phone had no visible scratches and looks new. Battery life was at 94%, so it exceeded expectations. It took 10 minutes at T-Mobile to swap may old phone for this one and the entire re-load process was quick and easy.

Good phone, battery life indicator lie
Size: 128GB Color: Pink Service provider: Unlocked Product grade: Renewed Premium
Paid for the renewed premium, but the battery life was below what was advertised. Not cool and pretty scummy. Nice phone and in good condition otherwise, so not worth the hassle of returning or exchanging.
