iPhone 12 mini in 2024 - Real Day in the Life Review!

I take the iPhone 12 mini for a spin in 2024, using the phone throughout a summer day in New York City while reviewing and discussing it along the way.

Thanks for watching!

I owned the 13 mini and loved everything except the battery life. And the 12-13 mini had the 5.4 inch screen but the 6-7-8+ all had the 5.5 inch screen so literally almost the same viewing area. But so much less bulk.

Had it since launch and I'm still rocking it, replaced the battery a month ago and planning to use it for another 2+ years, absolutely love the size, battery gets me through the full day with around 5 hours of SOT and ends up with around 30% at the end of the day

Just got the iPhone 12 mini and I absolutely love it it’s the perfect size for me

I used to have a 13 mini and upgraded to a 15 Pro. I got used to the 15 Pro size but then since I gave my sister my 13 mini I asked her if we could switch phones for a week, and she agreed. I’m back on my 15 Pro after a week and honestly loved the 13 mini only things missing were telephoto lens, Dynamic Island, 120hz, action button, and USB-C. (Obviously so much more but these are the only ones I noticed). Now my 15 Pro feels huge for some reason even though I was used to the size before.

I got 12 mini in green 5 months ago with 256gb and it was at 88% battery health now it’s at 84% and I love it. I’m not trying to spend much money to get the battery replaced just yet so I got a mophie battery pack case and it’s good all day. It’s a great phone

The fact that this phone has the least battery capacity and you're not even turn low power mode on for the whole usage is crazy. Me could never even though mine is iPhone 13 pro. I only got about 6hrs screen on time with low power mode on with current 83% battery health

Should I buy the pixel 7 or this one??

Are you planning on getting a new MacBook Pro soon? I noticed you’re still using a 2017 model. While macOS Ventura is still supported for now, it won’t be by the end of next year

[unboxings]

When you do these reviews does 60hz bother you since I see you also do pro models?

I don’t like 12 mini. The notch is a joke, it’s even bigger than the regular 12’s notch. I think the 12 mini feels really small because of notch, 13 mini feels like the Pro Max compared to this.

The iPhone 12 mini has always been a mini powerhouse, however, how does it compare battery wise to the bigger iPhone 12 models?

Is this a good phone for a 10 year olds birthday this year?

[cavemanproductions]

The 13 mini is the dream phone I will never be able to get

[jocklazer]

The only aura I’m interested in is rizz, okay?

How is this a video? The phone is literally 3 years old. This isn’t real day in the life. Maybe with an iPhone 3 or something
