What to know before you sell a locked iPhone 12 mini
- The iPhone 12 mini supports Activation Lock: turn off Find My and sign out (or remove it at icloud.com/find) before selling.

Can I sell a locked iPhone 12 mini?
It depends on the lock. Carrier-locked devices are bought. Activation Lock (iCloud) and MDM locks must be cleared first, because an iPhone 12 mini still tied to an account or an organization cannot be reset for its next owner. We never unlock devices for anyone except the owner.

Questions about selling a locked iPhone 12 mini
How much can I get to sell a locked iPhone 12 mini?
An iPhone 12 mini in like-new shape prices at up to $135 today. Once the lock is cleared, condition and storage set the price, not the lock. The quote on this page shows your number in seconds. Prices track current resale demand for each configuration, and your condition answers fine-tune the iPhone figure before you ship.
Which iPhone 12 mini storage sizes can I sell?
All of them: 64GB, 128GB and 256GB. Bigger capacities pay more in every condition. Open Settings > General > About on an iPhone or iPad, or About This Mac on a Mac, to see the exact model name and storage. Our model lookup also takes an A-number or identifier, so you can confirm which iPhone you have before getting a quote.
How do I remove Activation Lock before I sell my iPhone 12 mini?
On the device, go to Settings > [your name] > Sign Out, or remove it from Devices at icloud.com/find with the owner's Apple Account. A second-hand buyer needs the previous owner to do this. Signing out of the Apple Account removes the iPhone from Find My, which is what releases Activation Lock.
How do I get paid for my locked iPhone 12 mini?
Choose PayPal, Zelle or Bank transfer (ACH) when you accept. Once testing confirms the iPhone 12 mini matches your answers, payment goes out within 1 to 2 business days of your iPhone passing testing. Signing out of the Apple Account removes the iPhone from Find My, which is what releases Activation Lock.
