Unlocked iPhone 12 with 128GB storage

The Apple iPhone 12 is a fully unlocked smartphone compatible with GSM and CDMA networks. It ships new in a Purple finish with 128GB of internal storage and 4GB of RAM. The handset runs iOS 14.1 on Apple's A14 Bionic hexa-core processor.

Questions about this item

How do I insert the Nano-SIM or set up the eSIM on the iPhone 12, and what step do people often miss?

Use the ejector tool to open the right-side tray, place the Nano-SIM with the angled corner aligned, then reinsert; for eSIM, go to Settings > Cellular > Add Cellular Plan and scan the carrier QR code — the step many skip is confirming the plan activation before removing the old SIM.

What maintenance will the 2815 mAh non-removable Li-Ion battery need over time?

The battery is sealed inside the device; when maximum capacity falls significantly, a full battery replacement must be performed by an authorised technician using genuine parts.

At what point does sustained heavy use hit the thermal limit of the A14 Bionic hexa-core processor?

Under continuous load the two 3.1 GHz Firestorm cores will throttle first, reducing clock speeds to manage heat before the four 1.8 GHz Icestorm cores are affected.
