I never understood why people like having a tablet on their pockets, mini versions are the best! Its a phone not a frigging iPad lol

[The_Backson]

Hope Apple will continue with the mini form factor, as an alternative for us who want to have a break from all these gargantuan phones.

[padx]

i think an iPad Mini would be the perfect complement for this phone, for when you're just laying on the couch messing around. mini phone for when you're out, mini iPad for when you're in.

I think iPhone 13 mini is the best phone Apple has ever made, the prettiest too 🤘🏼

[BeatrixHoffman]

Just got my mini on Wednesday. I love it so far. I’m a girl with small hands and my hands hurt after a while of holding a bigger phone. Battery lasts all day, pictures are great, and the storage is plenty for me. My only complaint is I got the pink and I wish it was a little darker pink. It’s a very subtle shade of pink that looks white in a lot of lighting.

I’ve always had big iPhones. I always thought the bigger the better. But today I just got my iPhone 13 mini and I just can’t get enough of it. It is SO CUTE and SO AWESOME to be able to do everything with one hand. It so enjoyable. This thing is adorable and the screen size is not too small at all!!

[sylvestergomes]

Can very comfortably say that for me at least MJ 's Reviews have become as important as Marques' and Michael Fisher especially his deep dives....totally in for these long format reviews. You are now one of my top 3 TechTubers Michael (hope that's the right spelling, always confused with Fisher). Keep up the great work. Really wanna see you hit 1 mil at least by mid-2022.

I just got mine yesterday. I've had phablets since the OG galaxy note, but the 12 pro max broke me of that habit lol. My wrists kept getting sore and any kind of one handed use was just impossible. I even gave myself a fat lip dropping it on my face once. And I wasn't even using it to it's full capabilities either, all I do is read reddit, listen to podcasts, and take pictures of my kid so what the hell do I need a huge top-spec phone for? I downsized to the 12 pro but even that was still a bit too weighty. The 13 mini was kind of an impulse buy but I'm enjoying it so much. It feels like the ideal size for a phone and it's so cute too! Starlight is just gorgeous, it looks different in every light. I don't really feel like I'm giving anything up either, it's still very much a flagship. Yeah it would be nice to have macro mode, but I'll live. For my needs, it really is the perfect phone.

I got my mini a few days ago and it's so good! the size is literally perfect. It has handy but has enough screen space. I love it

[noxnext]

The iPhone 13 mini is totally MY GadgetMatch! ☺️ I will get the mini in Product Red and 256GB this year, upgrading from my 3 years old XR.

[vkkarthik]

Been using this phone for the last 3 months. One of the best iPhones I have ever used after 8plus.

Fast/amazing camera/perfect fit in pocket & handy. Battery life is really good, Donna why people complain.

Finally::: waiting for iPhone 14…..

[riverrock]

Like you, I bought the iPhone 13 mini for daily carry and the iPhone 13 Pro to use as an iPod at home. If I travel and need telephoto, I switch to my iPhone 13 Pro. I love having a smaller phone that fits in my coat pocket and it keeps it warm. Mini perfect for active people.

[motorcycleartist]

With all the upgrades this could apples best seller.. adding sensor shift stabilization , 128gigs, improved battery, bigger camera lens, ..kinda feel like a mini 12 pro

[namesdom]

9:10 I remember when iphones first started coming with 16GB standard. The relief from 8 GB was immense

[judebautista]

When Apple announced IPhone 12 mini, I went running and got me one. I love it. Been waiting for this phone size. I have a Mac and IPad, I don’t see the point of getting a huge phone. I know I am skipping iPhone 13 fn since it’s not practical but for those who are getting a phone. I bet this is a banger. I hope that they’ll keep mini in the iphone 14.

[jaimecadorniga]

I sold my 13 Mini because I dropped it accidentally, but I bought a new one that I use now. I cannot make any choices now because, for me, in my experience, the iPhone 13 mini is the best Apple has ever made

[MatthewVlossak]

Watching this on my iPhone 12 Mini. The battery life isn’t too bad. But if the 13 Mini is the last of its kind, I will be upgrading. The Mini is my favorite iPhone since the 4s!

[MrBhong]

Had my iPhone 13 mini for a week now, gotta say I'm pleasantly surprised. Loving it

[jecksonng]

I really enjoy using iphone 12 mini, hand friendly n not easy tired holding it for long period of time. If there is no iphone 14 mini, will reconsider back to iphone 13 mini.

[raymondo]

The Mini is the phone for the average iPhone user. It’s the original size of the iPhone. Pro should have been the plus model. 13 and pro max are a waste of time.
