Apple makes some of the best phones on the market, but they sure are pricey. For a lot of folks, spending $800 and up on a phone just isn’t a priority, but that doesn’t mean you have to put up with a poor user experience. If you’re happy to go for a refurbished device, you can save a ton of money on recent iPhone devices, like the iPhone 12, which is on sale for just $330 today only at Woot. Though it’s a couple generations old, Apple still sells this model from $600 so you’re saving close to half on its current going rate.
Despite being released a few years back, the iPhone 12 spec sheet is still pretty loaded with advanced features by today’s standards. It features a 6.1-inch OLED display, a 12-megapixel dual rear camera system, IP68 water resistance and support for 5G speeds. It also supports the latest iOS 16 software and, given Apple’s support for devices that are much older, likely will continue to get software updates for several years yet.

In our recent guide to iPhone upgrades, CNET’s Sareena Dayaram and Lisa Eadicicco concluded that existing owners should hold onto their iPhone 12 for another year since the iPhone 14 isn’t dramatically different. We also maintain a list of the best phones under $500 that features the iPhone 11, which would be surely supplanted by the year newer iPhone 12 if it didn’t retail for $600 usually.
Just note that Woot is selling its iPhone 12 devices in «scratch and dent» condition, which means that they will bear some physical imperfections. Your purchase is backed by a 90-day warranty in case any issues arise.
