This is a review of the iPhone 12 mini. In this review, I go over why most people will never buy the iPhone 12 mini, even though the iPhone 12 mini is one of the best iPhones made.

Yup, got a great deal on a anew IPhone 12 mini I couldn't pass up & NOT disappointed at all! Not a huge portable gamer, only at home so this phone's battery life is more than sufficient. At bedtime I got about 17% left with moderate browsing & KZfaq watching all day. Thanks for this video.

I have bought a 12 mini back in December and this being my first iPhone ever, there is no big issues I have with this phone. Not one being it the iPhone and neither for its size. It is the perfect size and the battery lasts a whole day easily. I would buy it again, the iPhone 12 is too large for me now.

He's definitely underplaying the mini. I saw a recent poll and more people wanted the mini than the pro. The battery needs charged daily, but it charges so fast it doesnt bother me. I never realized it was the charge time and not the battery life that always bothered me. I came from the XR and it took over an hour to get a decent charge. Im already use to the size and I will never go back.

I definitely agree with you! I currently have a iPhone XS Max, and as a woman, feel like the phone is 1) too large for my hands, and 2) too distracting (as far as how big the screens have become). I want to experience the same elements, in a smaller iPhone, without having to sacrifice anything, but the screen size, itself. I would love to use my phone with only one hand, and not feel like my heart is going to drop out of my chest.

I bought mine when it became available in uk. I have my 11 pro max as well but haven’t used it since so i am giving it to my brother. After using the mini the max feels like a brick. It actually helped me downsize in screen time on the phone and be more productive on tablet and pc instead of mindlessly scrolling on the phone. When proper battery cases become available will def buy one but even so it charges really fast. it’s sooooooo damn cute and it actually fits in my pockets. Love this tiny beast.

All phones used to be smaller because I think people used the battery less. But now a days people have 4-6 different social media platforms they use the minute they open their eyes. So they had to bump up the screen size and battery size for these addicts lol. I feel that the mini is normality.

I absolutely LOVE my mini. It feels like my first iphone which as a little kid, had the square metal frame and small form factor. The 8plus was my next one but it was so big I was two-handing it and I have an ipad if I want a big mobile screen. So the mini is my phone now. It feels good in my pocket, it doesn't feel like the offbrand discount version of the newest with its completely updated guts, and I feel like it captures some of my childhood with its elegant glassy back and front, but with an even better screen stretch. This is honestly the perfect phone, the iphone of my dreams.

@@nolanshen2773 typically iPhones don’t get through the whole day without at least needing a partial recharge if you are a moderate user, also while fast charging is nice I would not use those 20 watt bricks for regular charging use. iPhones aren’t meant to handle large charging loads like some other phones brands. It’s probably no big deal to use the 20 watt charger every now and then but all the time? No do not do that it will ruin the battery. I’d find a happy medium and try a 10 watt charger instead the newer iPhones can handle that wattage and it’ll charge relatively quickly. I know a lot of people who use those Anker Nano charging bricks that have destroyed their batteries due to regular use.

I definitely think it’s a great device. The iPhone 5s design was my all time favorite iPhone design (a great size, shape, and form factor - with the edge to edge screen of the Mini is a killer package) but for me, the 12 is it because of battery life. My current iPhone 8 is draining like crazy. I need a phone with greater battery. If it had the same battery life (which I understand is difficult given its size) I would 100% be on the Mini train. My iPhone 12 arrives today, and after years of needing an upgrade, I am very happy to be getting the 12.

Amazing phone. Came from the OnePlus 7 Pro. This 12 mini is lag free, solid battery life. Definitely meets my needs. I did not miss 90hz screen because of how smooth iOS is already. If you are considering this jump from a bigger phone, I’d definitely give it a shot if you are wanting a smaller phone.

I'm glad someone brought up refresh rate. MacOS and iOS are so buttery smooth that it already looks better than 60hz. Would a 90-120hz iPhone look better? Of course, but the trade off isn't worth the extra drain on battery life unless you play a lot of games. As a light-to-moderate user this phone makes. I'm an android user and I love it but there's no arguing how smooth an iphone already looks and imho it doesn't need a higher refresh rate. Even if it did, I would set it to 60hz because battery is more important.

I’m really glad I went with the mini. This form size is perfect. The smaller screen size is not small at all and the battery life is pretty good. For me I can get through the day with 35-40% left to go. Charges fast also. So battery is never an issue. Love that I can one hand this phone and actually put in and take out of pockets with ease. Best iPhone I ever used for sure.

I'm still using an iPhone 6+ so I'm always watching curiously as new phones come out. I still haven't had any reason to upgrade. I'm not a heavy user and my battery has recently been replaced, so it still…works. That said, I'd be tempted by this one if I had to buy right now.

The 12 mini basically takes the size of my 6s, and combines it with the screen of my mom's 7 plus. Yes, the battery isn't as good as my brothers XR, or my mom's 7 plus, but it's miles better than my 6s. I was debating between the larger 11 and the 12 mini and your review has pushed me to leaning heavily towards the 12 mini. I don't like big phones. When I hold my brothers phone, I always feel I'm going to drop it. With my 6s, I never have any issues with holding it. Plus, I don't have huge hands either, so the 6s fits perfectly, and I'd assume the 12 mini would too Thanks Jason! First video of yours I watched, and I'll definitely come back to you in the future!

For me, it's the size that tempts me most!! I love the squared edges and have been an iPhone 4, 4s, SE (Gen 1) adopter, so this seems like such a natural progression for me, although even with the price drop it still seems fairly on the pricey side..! I also use the phone more like a phone and less like a full-blown 24/7 media centre, so I think I'll be alright on the battery front :P For me, the real question is... Black or White??

I don’t use my phone as my main content consumption and allows it to feel like a phone again. When needed it can do everything and anything I want it to. For content consumption I put my phone away again and have used my phone less everything I wanted. Battery life not an issue!

I just went ahead and purchased iPhone 12 mini yesterday, and I am absolutely in love with it, even though I already own an iPhone 12 pearl max, and a Samsung galaxy ultra S 21, but the mini, is my favorite phone, my go to phone, again and again.

When I upgraded to the XR from a 5s for battery issues, I was completely happy with how long I was getting without recharging. Then there was a deal with my carrier that made me upgrade for 5G capabilities. I love how light the mini is and how it feels in my hand. I really don’t notice any difference in how often I have to recharge as long as I put low power mode on well in advance. Also I can type using one hand again without feeling carpal tunnel. The XR really was a brick! The mini 12 is just plain awesome!! Plus, thinking back to when I upgraded from my 5s, I thought the XR was huge. If the mini was around back then, I think I would have still thought the mini was quite large.

The size factor is so comfortable on the 12 Mini one-handed & in-pocket, and it just gets better with the Apple wallet added on. I use it essentially as an intermediate device when I don't have access to my iPad Pro 12.9 or MBA. For battery life, I've taken the time to go through all the settings, deciding which apps can run in the background, have access to location, and I've limited to 4G. I've had 9 hours of screen on time on one charge which is more than enough - without ever activating battery saving mode.

I have just bought a Mini to replace my old 6. It’s smaller and lighter with a bigger screen and exactly what I wanted. 24 hours in and very impressed. The only compromise is the battery which is still better than my 6 (which had a replacement battery a while back). It suits my needs and that’s the point.

Hey "JSL Rev". Thanks for sharing. The jacket didn't sound that much. I heard you perfectly fine. Personally i never have had a iPhone-phone, but considering of buying one. Only because finally someone made a small phone again like the 12 mini, and iPhone did it well indeed. My Samsung has a 5.8" screen and overall the phone feels way to big for me. I like to be able to navigate the whole phone with one hand if i have to. If i would buy any iPhone, the 12 mini would be the one for me. I don't play games nor watch movies on phones. Just basic standard things like text, calls, use the net for important stuff and so on. This phone feels absolutely wonderful in my hand, i nice snug fit. And the only reason i haven't bought it yet is the price, i think it's still way-way to high for a simple phone and I'm waiting for the price to go down, allot. (Too much money for a simple phone). Two things bug me with an iPhone (so far), it does not have an external hard drive, i don't like that it has to be plugged into something that starts charging the battery. (This shortens the lifespan of a battery when charging the battery even if it has electricity left in it). Second, it's missing a 3.5" headphone input. I'm forced to buy a "special" bundle to be able to connect my headphones is a smart move to make more money. So far, that's about it. Looking forward for the functions and how it feels to convert from Android to a iPhone. Can iPhone win my heart for the rest of my life, or will i go back to Android again? We'll see, time will tell.

I absolutely LOVE iPhone 12 mini, been using it for a month now. I've been an Android user since 2011 and decided that I need to try iPhone for once. Ended up picking the 12 mini bcs it's the cheapest of the 12 lineup. Best decision I've ever made and no regret whatsoever. The battery is not even that bad as many people say.

I bought it after iPhone 11 and I love it, it's such an awesome clean design and so so handy, it slips in to the pocket so easily, doesn't feel it's there, super cool. You take like 2 days to get accustomed to the screen if you are shifting from 11 or from a bigger screen to 12 mini.
