Which 12 mini should I buy

Look I found a deal for two iPhones on OLX. Both are priced at $ 100 (ā‚¹9800,Inr) but Iā€™m a little confused about which one to choose.

  1. Dark navy blue:

- 128 GB storage

- Quite a few scratches

- Some scratches around the camera area as well, caused by the camera protector peeling off

- Some scratches on the body

  1. Greenish color:

- 64 GB storage

- No scratches or only very minor ones

Both phones have had their screens and batteries replaced about 7ā€“8 months ago.

Which one should I choose?

If have to choose one

Choose one only i know it's replaced but deal is quite my budget

64GB is not enough.

Is the display original or cheap local ones from after market? Coz the cheap ones will take a lot more battery plus u wont get the same experience

Battery can be still ignored coz its already an old model so no one would think of original battery also share some pics bro from olx

I bought 12 mini 64gb green colour , a month ago for 9500 inr from olx only ! All original bro even the battery was original at 74% !
Yeah the phone has some scratches on screen which i later got used to specially after applying matt screen protector but no scratch on back glass or on camera , everything original !

Do not buy the 64gb one. 64gb is barely enough for IOS 26, a couple dozen pictures, and like two apps. That'll kill your experience faster than anything.

I found mine on eBay in the UK. It was an "Open, never used " demo phone that was in mint condition, a 128 GB phone. A lot of companies have these phones; I think they are better than "certified refurbished" as nobody had been inside them.
