For just $399.86, below its 180-day average of $649.80. The iPhone 12 typically sells for around $532.84 on Amazon, making this a significant $133 drop from the 30-day average.

This is one of the few discounts we've seen since the holiday season ended.

What You're Getting

The Apple iPhone 12 features a 6.1-inch Super Retina XDR display with Ceramic Shield protection that's tougher than any smartphone glass. You're getting the A14 Bionic chip, which was the fastest chip ever in a smartphone at launch.

The advanced dual-camera system includes 12MP Ultra Wide and Wide cameras with Night mode, Deep Fusion, Smart HDR 3, and 4K Dolby Vision HDR recording. The 12MP TrueDepth front camera also supports Night mode and 4K Dolby Vision HDR recording.

Who This Is For

Best for: budget-conscious iPhone upgraders who don't mind carrier locks. This deal makes sense if you're coming from an iPhone 8 or earlier and want modern features without paying flagship prices.

Skip this if you need an unlocked phone or plan to switch carriers frequently.

The Caveat

This iPhone 12 is carrier-locked, meaning it only works with the specific carrier subscription included. You'll need to activate and maintain service with that carrier for the duration of the lock period.

Final Verdict

At $399.86, this is a solid buy for anyone who needs a reliable iPhone upgrade and doesn't mind the carrier restriction. Wait for an unlocked model if you value flexibility or plan to travel internationally.
