iPhone 12 mini review

The iPhone 12 mini is built for those who have been dreaming of a small phone but don’t want to compromise on quality, and Apple has done an exceedingly good job at making that a reality. It isn’t perfect, with middling battery life and a high price for just 64GB of storage, but if you can put those negatives aside you’ll love what the iPhone 12 mini can do in its miniature package. The camera is versatile, the screen is fantastic, it comes with reams of power and the added benefits of 5G and MagSafe mean this is a phone that will last you for years to come.
Pros:
  • Smaller design looks great
  • Fantastic display
  • Futureproofed with 5G
Cons:
  • 64GB isn’t enough for some
  • Wireless charging is slower
  • Middling battery life

Apple iPhone 12 Mini 64GB - White MGDY3X/A review

If you asked me which of the four different models of the new iPhone 12 you should buy without providing any further context on your needs or desires, I would tell you to buy the regular iPhone 12 without question. It has the best balance of screen size, storage, cameras, battery life, and value.
Pros:
  • Excellent camera
  • Small with great build quality
  • Fast
Cons:
  • Battery life is below average
  • Is mmWave 5G really necessary?
  • 60Hz screen is behind the competition

Apple iPhone 12 Mini 64GB - White MGDY3X/A review

People who want a smaller phone will be hard-pressed to find a device as compelling as the iPhone 12 mini. That's because Apple took nearly everything that worked well in the larger iPhone 12 including its high-powered A14 Bionic chipset and excellent cameras and packed them into a pint-sized frame.
Pros:
  • Small design makes it easy to handle
  • Excellent performance
  • Beautiful screen
Cons:
  • Lackluster battery life
  • Slower MagSafe charging

Apple iPhone 12 Mini 64GB - White MGDY3X/A review

The smol phone to beat.
Pros:
  • It’s a baby iPhone. It’s fun to carry around. It’s easy to forget about. And unlike the small-ish iPhone SE, the iPhone 12 Mini has Apple’s newest chip, display, and camera system. Also: wireless charging.
Cons:
  • Battery life is not as good as on a big phone. Speakers aren’t great either. Smaller screen is less optimal for extended video watching … but maybe that’s a good thing.
