iPhone 12 Pro with 512GB storage, a 6.1-inch Super Retina XDR OLED screen and the A14 Bionic chip is in stock at Mascom International, priced at KSh 48,000 as a used unit. This iPhone 12 Pro from Apple has a stainless steel frame, Ceramic Shield front glass and IP68 water resistance. Around the back sit three 12MP cameras, including a 2x telephoto lens, plus a LiDAR scanner. It supports 5G, takes a physical SIM plus eSIM, and weighs 189g. Our shop is at Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street in Nairobi CBD.
Designed for lawyers, journalists and university students, the iPhone 12 Pro handles calls, research, photos and video in a size that fits one hand. Large phones get tiring on a long boda boda ride or while taking notes standing in a Milimani courtroom corridor. The iPhone 12 Pro solves that with a 6.1-inch display and a light build, yet keeps the camera system of a Pro model. Its 512GB storage holds lecture recordings, case files and years of photos without constant clean-ups. Students at Strathmore or the University of Nairobi can record whole semesters of lectures and still have room left.
Where most Nairobi electronics shops sell used phones without letting you check them first, Mascom International invites you to test every iPhone 12 Pro in store. At KSh 48,000, this unit costs just KSh 2,000 more than the 256GB version, so doubling the space is easy to justify. Buyers throughout Kenya report that the iPhone 12 Pro gives them Pro cameras without the weight of the Max. Each unit carries a 6-month warranty. Walk into our Kimathi Street shop, or message us on WhatsApp to arrange pay-on-arrival delivery.
Common Questions About the iPhone 12 Pro
What is the iPhone 12 Pro 512GB price in Kenya?
The iPhone 12 Pro 512GB sells for KSh 48,000 in used condition at Mascom International on Kimathi Street, Nairobi. The price covers a 6-month Mascom warranty, a tested compatible cable and pay-on-arrival delivery across Kenya. No power adapter is included, so add one if you do not already own a USB-C charger. The 256GB version costs KSh 46,000, which means the 512GB costs only KSh 2,000 more for double the storage.
Is this iPhone 12 Pro used or refurbished, and what is the difference?
Our iPhone 12 Pro is a used phone, lightly used internationally and kept in clean condition, not a refurbished one. A refurbished phone has been opened and repaired by a certified centre, while a used phone stays as its first owner kept it. Battery health and minor cosmetic marks differ from one unit to the next, so message us on WhatsApp for the battery percentage and real photos. We check every unit before it reaches the shelf at Mascom International.
How does the iPhone 12 Pro compare with the iPhone 13 at a similar price?
The iPhone 12 Pro 512GB at KSh 48,000 gives you a telephoto lens, a LiDAR scanner and four times the storage of the iPhone 13 128GB at KSh 45,000. The iPhone 13 has a newer A15 Bionic chip and longer battery life, but only two rear cameras and no optical zoom. Choose the iPhone 12 Pro if you shoot portraits or need space for large files. Choose the iPhone 13 if battery endurance and a newer chip matter more than storage.
Will the iPhone 12 Pro work on Safaricom, Airtel and Telkom in Kenya?
Yes, the iPhone 12 Pro works on Safaricom, Airtel Kenya and Telkom, including Safaricom 5G in towns where it has launched. Insert your nano-SIM in the tray and add a second line as an eSIM if your network supports eSIM. 4G LTE covers you everywhere else. The phone handles M-Pesa, the Safaricom app, Kenyan banking apps and eCitizen without trouble. If you carry the phone through dusty construction sites or coastal humidity, its IP68 seal helps keep moisture and grit out.
Who should buy the iPhone 12 Pro and who should skip it?
The iPhone 12 Pro suits buyers who want Pro cameras and lots of storage in a phone that fits one hand. Lawyers, journalists, students and sales teams on the move get the most from it. Skip it if you watch hours of video daily or play long gaming sessions, because the 2815mAh battery is smaller than in larger models. Heavy users should look at the iPhone 12 Pro Max, which has a bigger battery and screen and is also in stock at Mascom International.
Can the iPhone 12 Pro last a full day on one charge?
The iPhone 12 Pro lasts a typical working day of calls, messages and light browsing, but heavy users may need a top-up by evening. Its battery holds 2815mAh, and the efficient 5nm A14 Bionic chip helps stretch that charge. Battery health varies on used units, so ask for the percentage before buying. Fast charging reaches 50% in about 30 minutes with a 20W or higher USB-C Power Delivery adapter, which helps when a KPLC blackout cuts your evening short.
Is the iPhone 12 Pro good for journalists and content creators?
Yes, the iPhone 12 Pro is a capable tool for journalists and creators, recording 4K video at up to 60 frames per second with Dolby Vision HDR. The 2x telephoto lens lets you frame an interview subject from a respectful distance at a press briefing. Night mode on the wide and ultrawide cameras captures usable shots at evening events in Westlands. With 512GB of storage, you can keep raw clips on the phone until you reach a laptop to edit and file your story.
Can the iPhone 12 Pro still run current apps and games?
Yes, the iPhone 12 Pro runs current apps such as WhatsApp, Zoom, Microsoft Teams and banking apps smoothly on the A14 Bionic chip. It also plays games like Call of Duty Mobile and eFootball at good settings, helped by 6GB of RAM. Apple continues to release security updates for this model. Over time, some newer features may skip it, so buyers who want the newest iOS tools for many more years should consider a later generation.
