Refurbished iPhone 12 Pro Max: the biggest screen of the 12 series

The iPhone 12 Pro Max is the 2020 flagship with the largest screen and the best camera configuration of its generation. That makes a refurbished iPhone 12 Pro Max well worth considering for anyone who puts a high value on screen size and battery life.

Screen and size

At 6.7 inches, this Super Retina XDR display was the largest Apple had ever built into an iPhone at that point. That makes it ideal for watching video, gaming and reading, although the handset naturally also feels physically bigger and heavier than the regular 12 Pro.

Camera and battery

The Pro Max was the only model in the line-up to get sensor-shift optical image stabilisation, which results in sharper photos in low light and steadier handheld video. Its larger body also makes room for a physically bigger battery, which is why this model generally has the longest battery life of the 12 series.

Why refurbished is the smart move on this model

Because the flagship was the most expensive of the range originally, the drop in price when buying refurbished is relatively the largest here. You get the best camera hardware of the generation for a fraction of the original retail price, with the same thorough quality check as every other refurbished handset.

Who this handset is for

Perfect for anyone who sees the screen as the deciding factor, for example for media use or longer working days without a charger. If you find this handset too big, take a look at the more compact Refurbished iPhone 12 Pro, which offers the same camera core in a more manageable body.

Which condition should you choose for a refurbished iPhone 12 Pro Max?

Every refurbished iPhone 12 Pro Max is thoroughly tested and then graded on how it looks — technically all of them work 100%. That lets you pick deliberately, to suit your budget:

Not sure? For most buyers Excellent strikes the best balance between price and appearance.

The battery in your refurbished iPhone 12 Pro Max

Every refurbished iPhone 12 Pro Max we sell has a battery at 85% capacity or better — usually higher. So it comfortably sees you through the day. Better still: our 2-year warranty covers the battery too. If it does drop below par, we put that right free of charge. This is exactly where refurbished gets clever: flagship quality without the flagship price.

How The Phone Shopper tests every iPhone 12 Pro Max

Before a refurbished iPhone 12 Pro Max reaches your door it goes through our 50-point check: screen, touch, cameras, speakers, microphone, buttons, Face ID or Touch ID, charging port, Wi-Fi and 4G/5G. Only devices that pass every step go on sale. If something still is not right when it arrives, you have 30 days to change your mind and a 2-year warranty — no small print.

What to look out for when buying a refurbished iPhone 12 Pro Max

With a refurbished iPhone 12 Pro Max, check three things: the battery health (85% as a minimum), the length of the warranty (two full years with us, battery included) and whether the device has genuinely been tested. We are a real shop in Nijverdal with our own technicians — not an anonymous dropshipper. Order before 16:00 and we ship the same day, with delivery in 2 working days.

Frequently asked questions about the refurbished iPhone 12 Pro Max

Is the battery in the refurbished iPhone 12 Pro Max really better than the one in the 12 Pro?

Yes. The larger chassis makes room for a physically bigger battery, which in practice delivers longer use per charge than the smaller 12 Pro. Add the battery test every refurbished handset goes through and you get dependable, full-day stamina. If battery life ranks near the top of your wish list within this generation, the Pro Max is the sensible pick of the pair.

Does the iPhone 12 Pro Max have a different camera system from the 12 Pro?

The sensors are largely the same, but the Pro Max was the only model of that generation to get sensor-shift stabilisation, which makes a noticeable difference in low light and on video. Handheld evening shots come out sharper and footage looks steadier. For most daylight photography the two are hard to tell apart, but keen photographers will appreciate the Pro Max advantage when the light drops.

Is the size of the iPhone 12 Pro Max still practical for everyday use?

For most users it is, although one-handed operation is harder than on smaller models; the screen remains a major advantage for media consumption. Video, reading, navigation and photo editing all benefit from the extra space. It is heavier and less pocket-friendly, so if possible pick one up and feel it first. People who choose the Max size rarely want to go back afterwards.
