that's interesting. becos 64GB is a very very little storage nowadays given the camera capability of an latest iPhone.

i recorded an 4k 60fps video in high efficiency mode that is supposed to have the smallest possible file size. An 32 mins video already took 12.91GB. and i am using iPhone X. i believe the latest iPhone 12 with better camera quality the file size will be bigger.

minus off ur iOS itself system usage plus other usage, it is not even enough to take an 4 hours video.

Rarely take any videos with my phone so im still okay. Just text, social media, zoom meetings and occasional card games.

1,800 for a used 128GB 12 Mini. Fair price?

12 Mini 128GB, 89% Battery Health at RM1,500. Good deal?

Few things to consider.
1. The phone out of warranty.
2. You might need to prepare RM399 for battery replacement in the future when it's below 80%. Since battery at 89%, maybe next year you will need to replace the battery. If bloated battery, the replacement cost is higher.
3. Based on all the feedback I received, 12 mini battery life is not good, ur charging cycle might increase, which leads to faster battery degradation.
4. By using 20w fast charging could also lead to battery degradation, because it generates more heat.

Right now shopee senheng is selling 12 mini base model 64G at RM2399.
Let's calculate:
Used 12 mini cost 1500+399=1899
So the price difference is 2399-1899=500

New 12 mini comes with:
1. one-year warranty
2. Brand new with 100% battery

So do you think saving 500 is worth it? icon_idea.gif

just my 2cent.

Agree with your analysis except the 64gb 2399 part.
Shouldnt you use 128gb price instead as a comparison?
