I want to buy an iPhone 12 with hopefully 90% battery or higher. There's so many sellers so it's a bit of a minefield. Not fussed about the cheapest, just want the best condition and battery.
Thanks

sorted byMain thing you really want to be asking though is if people did have issues how did the companies respond, as I think that's the main point where issues will be with any of the retailer's as there's so many, it makes no sense for them to grade them wrongly that often as that's where they'll incur a lot of additional costs on sorting them out.
Bought 4 iPhones from them, the last being my current handset (iPhone 12 64Gb). I'd previously bought grade B phones from them and all were pristine with original boxes and accessories. All had 100% battery health and between 7 - 11 months Apple warranty left (company gives 12 month guarantee too).
2 weeks ago I bought a grade C iPhone 12. Has 100% battery health and was registered with Apple on 1 June so still got loads of warranty left.
In terms of condition, there was a small 5mm scratch on the back of the phone, nothing else. Supplied in original box and USB C charger. £297 with 10% off coupon. (edited)
Its grading tends also to be consistent.
Part of your pre-purchase due diligence may include asking CEX what level of battery (non)health would qualify for a battery warranty claim within the 2 year wty period.
