I have been looking through the threads of this to see what others think. So far there seems to be consensus of iPhone 12 mini users that many will upgrade to the iPhone 13 mini and hang on for as long as possible to that phone.
Does it seem worth bothering doing this if already on an iPhone 12 mini 256gb? The battery life is appalling but there’s chargers and magsafe battery pack that can be used. Reviews are showing about 40m-1 hour screen on time so not sure the value of that in the end. I was reckoning main benefit would be that better battery life and a bit more future proofing by upping storage size (at 150gb atm and that’s normal storage, no music, films, etc).
However, who knows, maybe something will change that would make a bigger phone appealing again (or a new small phone with Face ID pops up).
Also, if it was worth upgrading - when would be the best time? I notice usually yes, when new phones come out the price of the old one drops and minis will probably be around in September. But trade in price also drops.
What do you all reckon?
