iPhone 12 mini How many Mini owners here?

[Coady]

Upgraded from a 6S to a blue Mini 256GB Best size for a phone since the 4. Not too big and not too small.

Black iPhone Mini 256GB!! I always knew it would be a nice product, but man, do I love this thing. It's exactly what I've been wanting for YEARS.

Blue 256 GB mini here

I was, does that count?

Sadly I had to return it and got a regular 12 instead 🙁 I was getting hand cramps and the screen was a bit small. The regular 12 is the perfect fit for me.

Went from an SE 1st gen to an 11 when it came out. Great phone but way too bulky.

Now I'm happy to return to a phone that won't keep slipping out of my pocket or give me hand cramps. Blue 64GB. Love it.

iPhone 12 mini. Love the smaller size. I already have iPads, Macs, MacBook pros and CarPlay. I just need a phone.

I wanted to get a mini but thanks to the camera, I finally got a Pro Max 🙁

If only Apple could bring the Pro Max camera to the mini!

Love my 12 mini amazing upgrade from the original SE - went from 64GB gold to 256GB Blue

I'm hoping it's available next year. This year my budget is allocated for replacing my iMac. And I want a MagSafe battery pack. I will pay extra for a Mini-Pro though.

A MagSafe battery pack that I can grab and go with would solve the battery issue.

My 12 Mini is my favorite iPhone since the iPhone 5.

Not an iPhone 12 mini owner, but I’m not happy about it. I love (and still use - as a backup) the original SE. I’ve been desperate for another small phone, but Apple’s release cycle was off by about 6 months. My SE started to struggle this time last year, just as the pandemic was settling in, and I didn’t want to risk supply chains being upended and not being able to get a replacement for my SE, so I panic-purchased an iPhone 11 Pro.
A few friends have the 12 mini and I adore that size, but I’m also congnizant that much of what I do requires a pretty substantial battery. I’ve also gotten quite fond of the macro camera lens. So I’m torn. My hope was the 12s mini would add Lidar, then the 13 mini (presuming they keep the form factor around similar to the X-class phones) would have a third lens.
Honestly, if the mini had three lenses right now? No brainer. Battery life be damned, I’d buy it right now.

Black 256GB. Favorite iPhone since the 7

I've got a blue mini. Have been waiting for years and years for a phone this size or smaller. Really hoping that the sales of the mini increase so they continue to make phones this size moving forward. I hate the big phones.

 

[glenncashuric]

I bought a red one (256GB) so I can more easily take it on bike rides and hikes for photos and other stuff. So far, my favorite phone. If there had been a Pro Mini, I'd have gotten that.

Show me all that love for the 12 Mini! 😎

You all rocking it naked or with a case?

I upgraded to a 12 mini from the og SE. I find it a touch too large for easy one handed operation.

 

[sf_dre]

Bought a blue iPhone 12 Mini after my 5 year old 6s battery gave up the ghost at Thanksgiving. Thought about buying an 11 and really bugged me the smaller 11 Pro cost more. So I went with 12 Mini and I love it. Fits in my bags, the camera's great and can read books/news one handed.

 

[canuckRus]

I'm still on the iPhone 6S, but my next iPhone will be a mini.

Have both. Sweet spots in my estimations.

 

[stevenopoly]

currently still on the original iphone SE. I have absolutely zero problems with the phone. I was going to get the iphone 12 mini, but decided to wait out one last year. I will be buying the next iteration of the mini this year! VERY, VERY excited!

 

[ijbond]

Got mine asap after launch, just what I waited for for several years. Love it. Keep my SE as backup.

 

[WhitmoreSycamore]

Not me personally, but my wife. I got the 12 pro max, but I wish I had the mini. I was planning to switch to the 13 version next year. Hopefully it's still around.

 

[n8w]

I love my iPhone 12 mini. Seriously, it's the best phone since the absolutely perfect 4S

 

[aerric]

12 mini Black 64GB. Switched from the 11 - love the weight and formfactor. Got 20% battery left when I go to bed instead of 35% - 40% with the 11 before. So no issues there 👍

Wife just traded a 10 max for the mini. I wasn't sure she'd like it but yesterday she lost it in one of her pockets. That did it. Now she's hooked. It's small, lightweight, and fits her hand perfectly. However, I won't be trading my 12 max pro anytime soon.
