I had to review it 5 stars after seeing the mixed reviews. I think we got a good one, because the phone looks nearly flawless and the wife has been very happy so far. No major scratches, some light ones on the screen, but have no impact once the phone is in use. Battery life came at 87%, which isn't terrible and a big upgrade from the iPhone 8 that she had. Also, I was scouring the deals sites - Amazon, Woot, Swappa, etc. - for a similar unlocked iPhone 13 mini 256gb, and this was the best price by far. It beat Amazon by nearly $40 bucks and it came next day! (Amazon was scheduled to come in 2 weeks). I'm also shocked that we have 3 months to return it, if it does start to have issues. I'm pretty stunned how great this purchase was. I will buy from Walmart again!

I bought this phone at full retail price with taxes and I was so excited cuz I bought this phone for my mom for her birthday. It came on time and everything but when I opened the box, the packaging was so ghetto. The plastic film that was supposed to cover the screen before you peel if off, was barely on the screen and not actually covering the phone. The plastic bag it was in was open and not sealed, it was loose in the box. As for the phone itself, I bought it at “good condition” but the power button does NOT work and neither does the flashlight. I am so angry because I bought a phone at a certain price for a certain quality but the quality of the phone they sold me should’ve been “fair” or something less.

Received the phone, hooked it up. Experienced problems from the start. Spent 3 weeks between Walmart, Synergy (who only communicates in text), T mobile, and Apple.
Finally, Apple indicated that it is a stolen item and also reported as water damaged.
Walmart, thus far has recommended that I return the STOLEN product to the THEIVES for a refund.
READ THAT AGAIN. Does this make ANY sense to anyone??
Still pursuing the matter with Walmart. NEVER AGAIN!!!!

Updated from the seventh iPhone immediately to the thirteenth. The difference is noticable. The camera is very cool. Algorithms work as they should. The video stabilizes normally, there are no twitches. Everything works fast. It feels premium in the hands, the assembly is monolithic. Autonomy compared to my old smartphone is noticeably better and without problems the battery lasts for the whole day of active use. It's frustrating that Apple is installing a 60 Hz screen in its younger version, which is far from cool by modern standards.
