Absolute pleasure in dealing with WeBuyPhones. Sent my device with courier that Kate arranged and within 24h received payment for it. Quick and hassle-free. Would definitely recommend when selling 2nd hand devices.

Both my experiences with WeBuyPhones have been seamless and pleasant. Their service is exceptional and Kate is an amazing communicator - responds timeously. Business is legitimate and they keep their word (Not a lot of companies are like this in SA.) I've never had any issues with them whether its being kept updated on the progress or when it comes to payment being processed. Would recommend to anybody who wishes to purchase or sell their devices. Well done Kate on a great job! you're a valuable asset there.

WeBuyPhones South Africa - I was skeptical buying from this company at first as I had not heard of them. I called the customer service number and spoke to Kate who assured me that it is a legitimate business. She even told me not to transfer any money until she could confirm that there was stock of the item I wanted. After making payment, she kept me updated throughout the entire process, letting me know when the stock arrived, courier pickup etc. I will not hesitate to make use of their services again, and I would recommend WeBuyPhones to anyone looking for an affordable, good quality second hand phone. Well done Kate!

Brilliant service from Kate, very helpful with all my questions, she even assisted me after hours and on a weekend. It was an easy booking, my phone was picked up the next day, and the next day (on a Saturday) payment was made. Thank you We Buy Phones and Kate, for the prompt and efficient response each time. Your service has been outstanding. I will definitely recommend this company.

This is truly an efficient and professional business. They keep to their word and their process is all so easy. There is also a lady by the name of Kate who is delightful, she handles pressure well and is empathetic through the entire interaction. You won't go wrong selling your old devices here or even buying anything because their prices are reasonable #betterthangumtree

Had it almost a year now. This was an upgrade from a 10s Max (I believe). First - the phone side of it works exactly as it should without issues. It is quicker than the previous phone, and has excellent battery life. Rarely does it go below about 50-60% battery after an average day. We don't have any 5G around here so I cannot speak to that, although when I have been where there was 5G, it worked as expected. Second - and the reason I bought it... The camera! Unbelievable! Computational photography at it's finest. (I haven't put it head to head with a 13, but I wouldn't hesitate to pick up a 12 if you want to save a few bucks.) Stills or video, the three cameras in the main system are wonderful. I am in love with the wide angle lens. If you buy a phone for the camera, this is it. All phones can "phone", buy this one for the camera. Low light - high contrast - inside or outside, the camera rocks. I am always shooting in my program in college to use for marketing. It is perfect (or at least for my uses). As a long time DSLR shooter (and 35mm before that), this is the first phone camera I would seriously consider using as a vacation camera instead of my Nikon D7200 and bag o' lenses. Not to say the Nikon is useless now, it still does some things much better and has a lot of control that is not easy to access on the phone. But, as an old photog once said in answer to the question "what is the best camera? The one you have with you." Well, the Nikon is nice but it doesn't really fit in my pocket.

Due to Apple's Covid protocols, I had to make a temporary purchase of this phone instead of Apple Care giving a loaner. I used it for a few weeks. The camera is really great compared to my 8 Plus, but there is a huge learning curve not having the home button! There were a lot of things I could no longer figure out how to set or control myself. I would could not afford to keep it and while I will miss the camera, I was happy to return to the simplicity and home button of my 8 Plus.

I mean it’s an iPhone. You get what you expect from it super smooth interface. Great cameras. If you’re upgrading from anything iPhone 10 and below it’s a big upgrade. If you have an 11 pro you’re good for a while just wait on it. Still it’s a great phone love the big screen. Quick and responsive any go wrong with a 12 pro max. Also the battery life is crazy last all day on 80%. Apple did their thing with this one.

Really happy with this phone. I’ve generally been a Samsung person but some very basic things that should be working natively are not, so I switched back to iOS, or at least until I find an Android device that functions as a communication device first. This thing just works. My only complaint is that it’s a heavy phone but that’s a personal thing and not reflective on the device itself. Nice color too. Never thought I’d buy a blue phone but it’s almost teal in its hue and is the nicest looking one in the lineup.

So far VERY happy with this phone. Move from android to iOS was smooth (even though it took a couple of hours) with the 'Move' app for the transfer. Battery life has been great, but then I am not a heavy user. Charging was fairly speedy, only took a couple of hours for full charge from 10%. Camera is a great upgrade from my old Note 4. Only con is the steep price but I wanted very much to switch from android to iOS. Lack of the home button was not an issue. I tend to keep my phones for a long time and this one should keep up with new versions of iOS for many years. Overall very glad I switched.

I was a Android user for years but got tired of buying a new phone every two years due to they going out of date. This phone is fast, and never skips a beat. Screen is amazing and the video in 4K pushes it over the top for quality. Best phone I have ever had. To mention I get 2 full days out of one charge, my Androids would barely get 24 hrs ever.

Camera is beyond gorgeous. The lenses are a little bit intimidating, but worth it. The size is great. My only complaints are (coming from an android user) 1) the insane amount of money that extra memory costs. 2) The cloud is not viewable on your phone like google 3) the cost in general 4) why isnt there a "back" button?

I previously owned the 7+ and the 12 Pro Max is almost the exact same physical size as the 7+, in case you're wondering. Which is perfect for me. This was a great upgrade, seriously. It's super responsive, the performance is fast, the screen is sharp and rich, and the size makes it great for reading and video. The sound is good. No problems with bluetooth connections. Telephone voice quality is first rate. The battery life is great. Gets me through the day and night (emails, maybe a little video, some games) and if I forget to plug it there's still a healthy charge left in the AM. Camera is excellent, especially the wide angle.

I almost don't need to take any other cameras with me when I travel and that's the main reason why i upgraded to this phone. THE CAMERA IS SO AMAZING! I also love the new colorway.

Upgraded from an iPhone 6 to the iPhone 12 Pro Max. I like the absence of the home button and the speed is so much more than my iPhone 6. The facial recognition works very well, and the battery life seems to be equal to if not better than my previous iPhone’s. The camera on this phone is excellent. Go get yourself one, you won’t be disappointed.

Crystal clear voice, photos are amazing (super noticeable difference with nighttime photos; makes it look like day time in a pitch black room). 5G is very fast, and the size of this phone is almost identical to the 8+ (with the screen covering the entire front, of course). Also, while scrolling through social media, watching videos, performing searches, and other normal daily activities, the battery lasts forever. I am able to utilize my phone heavily for an entire day, and have over 40% after 8-10 hours of use. Dropped down to 5%? That’s okay, you can charge to 30-40% in like 15 minutes (using the correct charger). Overall super happy with this purchase, and also with . My tech was able to answer every question we had with ease, ranging from questions about the phone to questions about my cell provider, and very fast with everything. I walked in with my previous phone, then walked out with my new phone and all important data transferred in slightly over a half hour. Very impressed.

It’s an iPhone 12 Pro Max so there ya go. The camera is excellent, it makes it easy to shoot sharp pictures in low light. It’s zippy as you’d expect a new phone to be. I’ve heard complaints about it being too big, but honestly it’s not that bad especially if you’re used to getting top tier iPhones. Whether it’s worth the thousand or so dollars I spent on it is debatable. A smartphone is a smartphone is a smartphone. So unless you’ve never had a smartphone before there isn’t a whole lot to get super excited about.

Was overdue for an upgrade. Had an iPhone 7+. Was running into a lot of issues with the phone, thus, I needed a new phone. This phone is great. The pictures come out great. Especially the low light pictures. I just think it is way to overpriced. Also, I hate how there's a huge difference between Pro and Pro Max feature-wise.

I am a first time iPhone owner (very long time Android owner) so this review is from that perspective. As the title states, this is a 5 star phone. But like most things in life it is certainly not perfect (for me). First, lets get this out of the way, this phone is just utterly expensive, I am actually stunned that I forked out the $$$$ for this phone. I don't mind spending a lot on electronics, but usually those devices have a 10 - 20 year window of service (think home audio/video) so dollar cost averaging make the spend more sensible. I would be surprised if I get 5 years out of any phone. So considering that this phone is still pricey. Now the good: The battery life (so far) has been out of this world. I am SUPER impressed. Its sitting at 70% and I last charged this phone Friday afternoon and now its Sunday morning (moderate use). The screen is (can be) bright and very clear. The colors pop off the screen and the user interface is as expected, buttery smooth. Pairing with bluetooth devices is also smooth. The Phone part of this phone works great too. Speaker phone is loud and the sound clarity is very good. Facetime works great with others in the family with Apple devices. It has 5G... I have VZB in San Antonio, so that means jack squat ;) for now anyways. Apple ecosystem integration. All I had to do was bring my iPad closed to the phone and it pretty much set up 90% of the way. Integration with Apple services is easy too. Really Apple and Google have done a great job of giving you your stuff on all of your devices. (Maybe that isn't a good thing, what else do they know :) ) Unlocking the screen with your face (still requires the swipe) works every time. This feature works great, not so much in the covid world of face masks. But is a nice feature. Some gripes: I cant tell you in the few weeks that I have owned this phone how many screen shots I have accidentally taken (and had to delete). The positioning of the Up Vol switch and on the other side the Power switch is right where I place my fingers to pick up the darn phone. I can hear Steve Jobs telling me I am pickup the phone wrong lol... No phone charger included (USB-C to Lightning is included). Implication was everyone already has a charger at home (I have a bunch of USB-A but only a handful of USB-C). Here in lies the gripe. Regular 5V (even high output 2.4A) chargers will NOT charge this phone (even though they will charge my iPad 5 mini). Think about the car chargers that will need to be replaced since "regular" USB wont work... You have to use at the very least a quick charge charger, or a PD charger (USB-C). I suppose the type of cable included with the phone should have been the tip off. They should have just had the courage to just use a USB-C connector on the phone and be done with it. Talking about courage. I knew that a headphone jack dongle was going to be one of the first accessories (after screen protector and case, I also purchased a camera lens protector probably over kill ). I have a bunch of Bluetooth head phones, but I also have some high end headphones (and amps) that require a physical connection. So now I have two 3.5 mm - lightning dongles and another that has a lightning power to charge the phone along with the 3.5 mm jack. This really isn't a gripe, since I new this going in. icloud at only 5 Gb... 2 devices (iPad and now iPhone) 50% utilized for "backups." They really should give 10 -15 Gb before expecting to pay as that would allow of backups of devices and some photos/files. Any more than that it would be an expectation to pay. 5 Gb just seems small... Nit, but nonetheless... BestBuy - I would have liked to but this phone unlocked, but I could not. I could have bought it from the Apple store unlocked but I want to support BestBuy as having a brick and mortar store is important to me, But I am now locked into VZB (for only 60 days thank goodness), existing customers don't get diddly for incentives. Now I can make a decision in a couple months whether or not to stay with VZB or move my 6 lines elsewhere. Final thoughts: Great phone, expensive. I would have bought it again. I would also recommend this phone.

Hands down buy this phone!!!! I have been in apple eco system for long time so my opinion may be little biased. The design of the phone is amazing. I do photography as hobby and use the amazing camera of promax. I was bit confused before whether to get iphone 12 pro or promax but the larger screen definitely is helpful. The low light performance is very good. With the new proRAW added to the ios 14 it expands the horizon further. The sound quality is fare. One thing i dislike is the bulging camera which is prone to scratches and damage if you do not chose your cover correctly. Check out the pictures i have taken with the iphone.

I upgraded to this phone because of the camera system and it has not disappointed. Beyond that, however, I am not sure there would be much of an impetus to upgrade from a series X or 11 iPhone. Battery life for me has been sensational... No issues with full-day use. It is a big phone and does not fit very comfortably in the hand (one-handed use is challenging), but that is the price one has to pay for the screen real estate that comes with this phone. It was expensive, but I am very happy with it.

I've had the phone for a couple of weeks now but I'm still learning my way around iOS. I've been a long time Android user but I wanted to give this a try. Although it is a big phone, it turned out to be about the same size as my Note 9 so that wasn't a big change. The screen is crisp and easy to read. Battery life is very good, I'm usually around 65% left at the end of the day. The camera is impressive, I've taken some shots in low light conditions and they look great. There's currently no 5G service where I live so I can't comment on how well that works. Overall, I'm very happy with my purchase.

Great iPhone! Battery life is amazing compared to the iPhone XS. Picture quality and clarity has improved. My favorite addition to this phone, they fixed the issue of the iPhone overheating when playing games on it for extended periods (30-60 min) from previous iPhone models. As a negative, Apple is trying to save a few bucks by not providing a charger or charging cord with your new phone. Not happy with that as I was looking forward to having an additional genuine iPhone charger in the house. Overall, I am pleased with my upgrade!

It is big (but not much bigger than the iPhone 11 Pro Maxs we traded in). Battery life is at least as good as the 11 Pro Max but then we have only had them a week. Display is great and the phone seems faster than the 11. The camera is better than that on the 11 especially with the 2.5x zoom. Setup was flawless using Quick Start. We are using the 18W chargers from the previous iPhone 11s. We have them in the /Platinum-brand leather wallet folio cases. We have used these for the last 3 iPhone versions. Only thing is that with the straight sides on the 12 Pro Max they don't fit as tightly in the case as did the previous iPhones with the curved edges. But they are easier to remove from the case, no more broken finger nails. Getting them at was a pleasure compared to the chaos at an Apple Store the previous two years: The associate knew what he was doing compared to the associates in an Apple Store. He saw immediately that my new phone had a bad Verizon SIM card and popped in a new one. gave us a much better trade-in for the 11s than what Apple or the 3rd party web-based buyers offered. Only thing is that with Verizon, at least, the phone is locked to Verizon for 60 days if you pay outright for the phone.

Apple’s best phone so far. I love the screen size, battery life and better wide angle camera due to the bigger sensor. I do not like the size for real world business use. It simply was just to big. In the end I felt the camera was good but not that good to justify the size of the phone. I ended up returning it for the regular 12 pro. It is much more manageable and still takes good pictures. I can also say that this phone is the only model that properly does display zoom without cutting off apps like Teams and Linkedin.

This was my second IPhone, I had the X which I loved, it was the first phone I ever kept for 2 years. I got this one for the camera and 5G and it doesn't disappoint. It's fast, seamless and the pictures are great. I also liked how Apple makes it easy to transfer data from one phone to another, when it was done it was setup just like my old phone, playlists and all.

This is definitely my favorite iPhone to date. I was never a fan of the rounded edges. The redesign of the flat edges like the iPhone 4 & 5 generations is fantastic. It feels great in the hand. The iPhone 12 pro max is actually a good deal this year given only the $100 increase and what is upgraded. The 12 pro max is very quick and responsive and the is excellent quality and bright. My only small issue this year is apple’s decision to not include a wall brick. To say everyone has one already is true but it’s usb-a. Apple’s included cable is usb-c to lightning so it won’t work with all other bricks. So if you use the new cable you will have to go buy a new wall brick with the usb-c plug.

Great phone with a few quirks built like a tank loving this blue color pictures are a lot better battery life is pretty decent 5g is pretty fast if it’s in your area it’s not all over yet but I travel so I get it in some spots my mms messages are not all coming through I guess it’s an 14.2 update issue
