How to Get Your Hands on a Coveted Apple iPhone Mini
Introduction:
The Apple iPhone Mini smartphone has been receiving rave reviews for its advanced features packed into a sleek, compact,lightweight design. However, its popularity has made it a hot commodity, often leaving consumers struggling to find it in stock anywhere. In this blog post, I will provide you with some tips and tricks to help you get your hands on the highly sought-after Apple iPhone Mini smartphone.
Apple incorporated has discontinued the manufacture and sale of the Apple iPhone mini smartphone. The Apple iPhone mini 13 thirteen will have been the last manufactured and sold Apple iPhone mini smartphone. You will have to purchase it from authorized resellers, third parties, etc.
Stay Updated and Act Quickly:
Given the Apple iPhone Mini's high demand, it is essential to stay updated on product releases and announcements if Apple decides in the future to bring back the Apple iPhone mini. You can follow Apple's official website, social media accounts, and subscribe to their newsletters to receive notifications about availability and pre-orders. When you receive an alert, act promptly to secure your purchase.Check Apple Store Online:
You can begin your search on the official Apple store website. Here, you will find the most accurate and up-to-date information regarding the Apple iPhone Mini availability. You can watch for the "Buy" button or "Add to Bag" option to ensure it is still in stock. Keep in mind that Apple's online stock can fluctuate rapidly, so check frequently for any restocks.
Explore Authorized Retailers:
If you are unable to find the Apple iPhone Mini smartphone in stock directly from Apple incorporated's official website, consider checking authorized retailers. Popular retailers like Best Buy, Target, and major wireless telephone carriers often have stock available. You can visit their websites regularly or use their store locators to inquire about product availability or sign up for notifications when the Apple iPhone Mini smartphone is back in stock.
Check Third-Party Sellers:
Sometimes, third-party sellers and resellers may have Apple iPhone Minis available for purchase. However, exercise caution when dealing with such sellers, as there may be a risk of scams or inflated prices. Reputable platforms like Amazon, eBay, or Swappa provide buyer protection services, ensuring a safe transaction.
You might be able to purchase a new, pre-owned which just means used, refurbished, or renewed which just means refurbished Apple iPhone mini. If you cannot find a brand new Apple iPhone mini, then if it is acceptable you can look for pre-owned or renewed Apple iPhone mini smartphones online and possibly at local retail stores. You can search for an Apple iPhone mini on Amazon, eBay, Craigslist, etc.
Try Local Apple Stores:
Physical Apple Stores are a viable option for purchasing an Apple iPhone Mini smartphone, but you may need to be a bit more proactive. You can contact your local Apple Store to inquire about stock availability and whether they offer a reservation system. Often, these stores have limited stock each day, so visiting early in the morning can increase your chances of snagging one.
Consider Trade-in or Upgrade Programs:
If you currently own an older Apple iPhone Mini model, Apple offers trade-in programs that allow you to exchange your device for credit towards a new purchase. Leveraging this option can help reduce the cost of your Apple iPhone Mini or make it more accessible if it becomes available again in the future. You may be interested in an Apple iPhone SE special edition.
However, the Apple iPhone SE special edition is usually bigger than an Apple iPhone mini. They are normally smaller than the Apple iPhone, Apple iPhone plus, Apple iPhone professional, and Apple iPhone professional maximum. You can visit your local Apple store, Best Buy, Target etc. to physically hold the Apple iPhone SE special edition in your hands to see if it suffices.
In Conclusion:
Securing the Apple iPhone Mini smartphone requires perseverance and a swift response when opportunities arise. You can keep a close eye on official sources, authorized retailers, and verified platforms to increase your chances of getting this sought-after device. By staying vigilant, acting quickly, and exploring various purchasing channels, you will increase your odds of getting your hands on the Apple iPhone Mini smartphone and enjoying its outstanding features.

Apple decided to basically
0:11
discontinue the Apple mini so this video
0:14
pertains to how you can still buy an
0:17
Apple mini iPhone they didn't really
0:20
formally announce it and I couldn't
0:22
actually find a press release anywhere
0:25
on their website
0:27
however I performed some further
0:30
research and I found that under
0:31
apple.com iPhone official page uniform
0:35
resource locat on screen highlighted
0:37
just type that into this address bar of
0:40
your web browser and you will view this
0:43
page it says which iPhone is right for
0:45
you you notice the
0:48
iPhone these that are available however
0:52
the Apple iPhone Mini is missing that's
0:56
because they basically discontinued
0:58
selling the Apple iPhone 13 mini was the
1:01
last one that they sold brand new you
1:04
know what I'm saying they still sell the
1:07
SE however the SE has a 4.7 in screen I
1:11
believe I don't know about all of them
1:13
but some of the Apple iPhone minis had a
1:16
4. what 4 or 4.5 screen now just because
1:22
the screen is smaller does not mean that
1:24
these iPhones are smaller themselves the
1:27
Apple
1:28
SE actually
1:30
is bigger overall when you include the
1:34
case the entire the measurements height
1:38
width length you know what I'm saying
1:41
the thickness but but the height and the
1:43
width is actually larger some people
1:47
they just don't even like the Apple
1:48
iPhone SE however later in this video
1:51
I'm going to show you two websites where
1:54
you can potentially buy a brand new
1:58
Apple iPhone mini now this video
2:02
pertains to just any you could purchase
2:05
a brand new one in box you could
2:08
purchase a refurbished you could
2:10
purchase a renewed and you could P
2:12
purchase a used and I'll quickly go over
2:14
what the differences are between those
2:16
aforementioned just bizarre abstractions
2:19
the term renewed is something new but
2:21
basically it means refurbish anyways
2:23
let's move along with this video so you
2:25
can always browse to apple.com iPhone
2:29
now some people claim I don't get into
2:31
the rumors that to me is a total waste
2:33
of my time I never discuss rumors I'm
2:36
just telling you when I studied people
2:39
are claiming that maybe in the future
2:41
they'll bring back the iple iPhone Mini
2:44
who knows I do not know I cannot predict
2:46
the future that is a possibility so that
2:49
could be another way in the future is if
2:51
they do decide to make to manufacture
2:53
them again another option would be the
2:55
Apple iPhone
2:58
SE again remember some people don't like
3:01
it because technically it is not as
3:03
small now the screen is close to as
3:06
small as an Apple iPhone Mini but
3:09
overall the the phone is actually a
3:11
little bit bigger and you may not like
3:13
it but that is an option okay now my
3:17
other the other source that proves that
3:19
that Apple basically retired discontinu
3:22
the Apple iPhone Mini is this page right
3:26
here this now these are official
3:28
apple.com web Pages uniform resource
3:31
locators direct to the source direct
3:33
from The Source I could not find like a
3:35
press release this but this still proves
3:38
it
3:39
apple.com and I expect that you pause a
3:42
video and you type that uniform resource
3:45
locator on screen with no errors you
3:49
cannot make mistakes you cannot forget
3:52
the question mark or the minus sign
3:56
Dash Okay however check this out compare
4:01
iPhone models now they do still list the
4:04
Apple iPhone 13 mini that will obviously
4:07
change in the future but check this out
4:10
when you scroll down available at
4:12
authorized
4:14
resellers so what is happening is that
4:17
the the 14 plus the the you know the 15
4:21
Pro Max blah blah blah you can buy it
4:24
directly from Apple at least the 14 plus
4:29
this is
4:31
Not
4:32
Unusual you know what I'm saying
4:34
whenever Apple releases a new iPhone you
4:37
can
4:38
pre-order and then after the pre-order
4:42
you can buy but as you can see it just
4:44
says authorized resellers it is possible
4:47
at the time of this video creation that
4:49
I think Best Buy might carry them Best
4:52
Buy and even Walmart but you would want
4:54
to verify on your own I'm not I never
4:56
give out advice I never guarantee
4:58
anything and I never recommend anything
5:00
but if you're at a a Walmart or a Best
5:04
Buy you could check and in the future
5:08
this video could still be productive
5:11
because in the future maybe they bring
5:13
back the mini or the SE would be a
5:16
comparable size that you that would you
5:18
know that you would
5:21
like you know what I'm
5:23
saying and in the future maybe if they
5:26
will then this could happen all over
5:29
again is my
5:31
point I'm not telling you to rush out to
5:34
Best Buy and and Walmart because I know
5:37
for a fact but when I did a internet
5:39
search it looks like for now but in the
5:42
future no okay so that proves to me that
5:46
now you notice the screen 5.4 in you
5:50
know what I'm saying that a lot of
5:52
people that like the Apple iPhone Mini
5:54
like it because the screen is smaller
5:56
but the screen must be smaller so that
5:59
the case can be smaller but the Apple SE
6:02
the screen size is similar size but
6:05
actually the case is
6:07
larger and the weight and all that but
6:10
okay now I told you earlier that I was
6:12
going to tell you two websites where you
6:14
could possibly I'm not guaranteeing
6:17
anything possibly purchase a brand new
6:20
Apple iPhone Mini now I you know the
6:25
model may be
6:26
different you may have to look once in a
6:29
while now here's what I did I just went
6:31
to amazon.com and I typed in Apple
6:35
iPhone Mini right here as you can see my
6:37
S the search term then I scroll down a
6:40
little ways on the left hand side you're
6:42
going to see the condition I clicked on
6:45
new and as you can see it's bolded
6:48
highlighted because I selected it now
6:50
there are some I don't know why but
6:52
there's some other phones that aren't
6:55
even Minis that showed up so you just
6:58
want to you know just be thorough and
7:00
verify but at the top as you can see
7:03
there's an Apple iPhone 13 mini for $
7:06
729
7:08
$129 and there's a Apple iPhone 12
7:12
mini now these are locked and carrier
7:17
subscription you know what I'm saying
7:19
this one the 12 mini is
7:22
54982 free delivery what else is going
7:25
on now this is could change in the
7:27
future but I still think do they show
7:30
any other models besides the 12 and the
7:33
13 the 13 is the last one that may ever
7:36
be manufactured the Apple iPhone
7:39
Mini is there an 11 or even
7:46
earlier Mini smartphone well that's
7:49
really
7:52
mini hey that's the wave of the future
7:54
Apple will bring back a mini iPhone but
7:57
it'll be that small
8:00
all right I don't see any other ones
8:04
[Music]
8:07
quickly my 8 minutes is up I will extend
8:11
the video a little bit overtime you may
8:13
have to just search once in a while or I
8:16
don't know if if Amazon they may have
8:18
like
8:19
a RSS feed really simple syndication or
8:24
maybe email you're able to receive it
8:26
through email if not you'll have to
8:28
manually search one once in a while but
8:30
just you know what I'm saying so this is
8:32
Amazon now I don't see any other
8:34
models that doesn't mean that they won't
8:36
show up but I but I showed you too and
8:39
to prove it just quickly now again you
8:42
want to verify just because the title
8:45
says are new even on Amazon you want to
8:48
make sure now if you do a quick search I
8:53
think most likely this is brand new
8:56
because mui rapido let's see next
9:01
next oh it's in the verbiage right here
9:05
it says right here select the color and
9:07
storage capacity of your new iPhone
9:10
activate your new
9:14
iPhone on your new iPhone so just verify
9:18
that indeed this is brand new brand
9:20
brand new means new in its original
9:23
packaging never been opened never been
9:25
used never been touched it's in the
9:28
original packaging from the manufacturer
9:31
and you can still find
9:34
new all I just the the sky a limit you
9:37
can find new products they may be 5
9:40
years old technically but as long as
9:43
it's in its new packaging it can still
9:46
be sold as new all right now eBay eBay
9:50
is another website where I found I just
9:52
did the same thing I browsed ebay.com in
9:55
their search engine Apple iPhone Mini
9:58
now I didn't distinguish between the
10:01
models because I just wanted to show you
10:03
that there are some and again I scroll
10:06
down to the leftand side and under
10:10
condition I clicked on new at both
10:13
Amazon and eBay none none of these other
10:18
filters were selected I clicked on new
10:20
it says 850 however you want to become
10:23
aware you don't want to get scammed you
10:25
know what I'm saying people will
10:27
advertise as new and maybe it's not so
10:29
just verify read the entire eBay
10:33
advertisement and make sure it is indeed
10:35
new it's the same definition okay so I
10:38
did find one right here new Apple iPhone
10:41
12
10:43
mini factory
10:46
unlocked it says brand new you notice
10:49
here brand new brand new and then this
10:53
one says brand new too the iPhone 12
10:55
mini and the prices too the prices are
10:58
going to be higher because they're still
11:00
brand new in it in its original
11:02
packaging brand new brand new and then
11:06
brand
11:07
new and now let me show you this one
11:10
that I that
11:14
I perused earlier new and then on eBay
11:20
the seller I and I am a experienced
11:23
seller on eBay and I am an experienced
11:25
seller on Amazon so I know what I'm
11:27
talking about I'm not saying like I'm an
11:29
expert as a reseller but I have
11:32
experience selling I've sold computers
11:34
on Amazon I've actually sold books on
11:36
both eBay and Amazon and I'm a computer
11:39
technician you know what I'm saying the
11:40
point is is that in order to create an
11:43
ad you have to correctly identify the
11:47
product right here under item specifics
11:50
condition new now here's the definition
11:53
of brand new even on eBay a brand new
11:56
unused unopened undamaged it item in its
11:59
original packaging where packaging is
12:04
applicable packaging should be the same
12:06
as what was found in a retail
12:08
store okay un okay but when it comes to
12:12
electronics
12:13
yes it should be in its original
12:16
packaging a box cell
12:20
cellophan
12:22
cardboard you know what I'm saying okay
12:24
so that
12:27
is the bis of my video pertaining to how
12:30
you can still buy an Amazon
12:34
ex an Apple
12:37
iPhone Mini did you know I do not script
12:40
my videos number one I do not script
12:43
number two I freestyle them number three
12:47
most times it's a one take anyways now
12:49
that did take me time to learn okay so I
12:52
also told you quickly the definitions
12:54
the definition of new I already went
12:58
over that's basically Universal brand
13:01
new in its original packaging never been
13:04
used obviously from the manufacturer it
13:07
h it must be brand new never never been
13:09
used never been unpackaged never okay
13:13
number two is used used is just
13:17
obviously an item that has not brand new
13:23
unboxed been quot you know the word used
13:26
people have actually like example on
13:28
Apple iPhone Mini they've surfed the
13:31
internet a million times with it they've
13:33
made about a thousand calls to their
13:35
Mistresses I mean excuse
13:38
me I know nobody laughs at my lame jokes
13:41
but anyways I couldn't help
13:43
myself some men in America they use
13:46
their Apple iPhone Mini to call their
13:49
lawyer because their wife is filing
13:52
divorce papers and served them with
13:53
divorce papers or they texted their
13:56
their lawyer and their just you know all
13:59
of a sudden they're in a
14:01
quagmire okay that's the definition of
14:04
you used now there's a new term that I
14:08
just learned recently
14:11
renewed huh well why is it just just
14:14
call it refurbished or just what okay so
14:18
basically now people are using the term
14:22
renewed maybe refurbished is offensive
14:26
maybe used is offensive oh another term
14:29
for used
14:31
is there's another term I may or may not
14:34
think of it yeah it gets silly the
14:36
marketing gets silly it's just absurd I
14:39
don't have a problem with using the word
14:41
used well who cares okay now here's the
14:44
difference between used and refurbished
14:46
and renewed used is the item is just no
14:49
longer new and it's been sitting around
14:52
in a closet collecting dust for you know
14:56
I mean you know what I'm saying
14:57
refurbish means that something was fixed
15:02
or ex this is an excellent example Apple
15:05
iPhone Mini when I studied them there's
15:07
a common theme of having to replace a
15:11
battery so I'll give you some additional
15:13
tips when it comes to the battery you
15:16
may want to order brand try to get brand
15:19
new you can buy them on Amazon and eBay
15:22
and may oh Craigslist too that's another
15:23
one I was going to mention Craigslist
15:25
you may actually find a brand new Apple
15:27
iPhone Mini on Craigslist you just have
15:29
to search in in its box here's a quick
15:32
story about 5 years the last dumb device
15:34
I mean smartphone that I ever owned
15:36
before this American Telephone Telegraph
15:37
Calypso 2 was about 5 years ago and
15:40
actually bought it brand new on
15:42
Craigslist for $60 it was a
15:46
htc626s
15:48
smartphone brand new in the original
15:51
plastic that the the pla the hard
15:55
plastic that's hard to take apart that
15:57
would have been it would was was retail
15:59
is what it was and but it was still
16:01
technically
16:02
new you know what I'm saying even though
16:05
I think at that time that that
16:06
smartphone was discontinued and that was
16:09
on Craigslist I just searched on
16:11
Craigslist for smartphones and somebody
16:13
actually had a brand new one and then
16:15
that's and I was like for $60 yeah I'll
16:18
just why not okay because I knew it was
16:20
never been used
16:22
okay
16:24
so that's another option is Craigslist
16:27
okay tips battery when when it comes to
16:29
the Apple iPhone Mini a common theme is
16:32
the batteries start to discharge and
16:35
they don't hold the charge as well so
16:37
and in the future there's no guarantees
16:39
that you'll be be able to find brand new
16:42
batteries on eBay Amazon Craigslist Etc
16:45
as an nauseum so I you may want to buy
16:47
more than one at a time if if you think
16:49
you're going to you know well there's a
16:51
lot of people that they're holding on to
16:53
their Apple iPhone minis and they plan
16:55
to keep them until they no longer work
16:57
or maybe there's a iOS iPhone operating
17:00
system update that or they're just not
17:03
functional with the at that the new what
17:06
whatever you know if you notice with
17:09
technology these websites and the blah
17:12
blah blah they get more and more bloated
17:14
and you know trying to use and there are
17:17
people that still use iPhone 5es because
17:19
they're smaller okay anything further oh
17:23
the difference between new used oh Pro
17:27
or
17:30
yes new used
17:33
refurbished renewed renewed is basically
17:37
the same thing as
17:38
refurbished somebody maybe recy a lot of
17:42
recyclers do this they get computers and
17:45
smartphones by the hundreds and
17:47
thousands and they have to go through
17:48
them and test them oh oh an Apple iPhone
17:51
Mini 12 oh oh the battery keeps
17:55
discharging oh here's a brand new one oh
17:57
let's test it it for a couple of days oh
17:59
it works just
18:01
fine technically that phone is now not
18:05
considered brand new obviously and not
18:07
considered used because they replace the
18:10
battery that's the difference between
18:12
used and refurbished and now the term
18:18
renewed this was my video pertaining to
