✅ YOUR ULTIMATE USED IPHONE BUYING CHECKLIST:

Don't get caught with a faulty device! Before buying a used iPhone 12 Pro Max, make sure you check these 7 things:

1. Screen Quality: Test for dead pixels, brightness, and True Tone.
2. Speakers: Play audio to ensure both earpiece and bottom speakers work.
3. Cameras: Record video, switch between all lenses, and check for audio playback.
4. Battery Health: Be suspicious of 100% health on older models. Check the cycle count.
5. SIM Lock: Test with your own SIM card and use an online IMEI checker.
6. Connectivity: Test Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and AirDrop functionality.
7. Face ID: Make sure it sets up and unlocks the phone correctly.
