iPhone 13 and 13 Mini: First impressions

The iPhone 13 is here. Apple announced four new models of the iPhone, all of which have new cameras, bigger batteries and a new A15 Bionic chip. The base models of the iPhone 13 and 13 Mini get double the storage and yet the price remains the same across the line. There's a lot to be excited about.

I like that Ron Jeremy is now doing tech news.

Anyone else super stoked for the mini?

[smm]

I am excited to “downgrade” to the mini size. Performance was lacking too much in previous models but as a person with smaller hands, all I can say is “about freaking time”

Why are we even calling these iPhones? We should just start calling them iCameras, because that’s always the focus every year😂

[FelixRosas]

I was really scared there was never going to be another mini. I hope they continue.

Does the iPhone 13 mini have center stage?

[bMoth]

Always been on the fence regarding the 12 mini. No doubt I’ll order the 13 mini 🙌

I WAS REALLY HOPING FOR CENTER STAGE TO MAKE IT ON THE IPHONE 13 MODELS THIS YEAR, BUT I GUESS WE HAVE TO WAIT FOR THAT FEATURE IN NEXT YEAR'S IPHONE 14 MODEL! 😢

"The new iphone's 13 will cost the same as the iphone's 12 but come with 128gb of storage instead of 64gb of storage".... I love how Apple holding out what should have been standard last year becomes a new "feature" for the following year... Next year 100% we're going to see "the new ipad mini costs the same but now has a refresh rate of 120hz"... This trend needs to die

If they are even remotely close to being honest about the mini having same battery stats as the 11 I'm on board

[EnderSam]

Well... maybe i dont know what "innovation" means anymore...

[ieuphoric]

I have the iPhone 12 Pro Max, I’m only going to have to pay $39 after trade in for the iphone 13!!!!

[chelsdeelambstolionsfitnes]

I think I’m going to do the mini this year

[cityplanner]

An “S” pgrade but for me a nice upgrade bc it improves on the iPhone 12’s. Now I can get the 13 mini with better battery life.

If you buy this phone & you bought one in the last 2 years, then you really don't understand life anymore.

waiting for the mini switching from gs10 love the smaller size

[serenity]

Upgrading from 11pro to 13 in product red 😍 .. the pro just isn’t worth it anymore! I wanted a bigger phone and the 13 is slightly bigger than the 11pro so i’m happy 🤷🏾‍♀️ and the new red looks gorgeous and actually red compared to last years pinky-red .. Just a few more days to wait!

I’m happy with my iPhone 12. Still runs perfectly and no battery issues.

When is it coming out and when will the iPhone 13 mini come out ????

[javtimestwo]

thanks for the terrific review. i have the 12 mini but i have had countless trouble with dropped calls, no ringing during incoming call, occasional text without notifications and losing signal strength while at home. i think the 12 mini was a lemon so i should upgrade to the 13 mini
