The "mini" is basically the original normal size phone. Ngl I got pretty tired of big, tall phones and iPhone 12 Mini is just the perfect size for me.

Watching on my 12 mini. Loving the size. For someone who uses an iPad, it’s the perfect size.
I've been using the first Gen SE since it launched. And I have absolutely loved its form factor. I held onto it for so long hoping Apple would one day would once again release a small (Regular sized) phone. I was first in line and got it launch day, I absolutely love using it, what a great phone.

“this RaNdOm piece of tech right here”. nice random tech
7:34, it isn't a "really weird edge case", it is called thermal throttling, something that small computers like phones and thin and lights love doing. In this case, it means that the smaller phone has less heat dissipation (as seen using the thermal camera) and throttles down faster than the max, but eventually, they both will.
I love that there is a mini device with full feature set. Even though I’m a Samsung all the way I wish all manufacturers would do a no compromise mini device

Contemplated waiting for the 12 mini, but upon playing with the cases available at Best Buy (cases available before the phone?) decided to go with the regular 12. Perfectly happy with it, glad Apple went back to a more 4, 4S, 5, 5s squared off phone.

I have the iPhone 7 right now. I can get the XR 128gb for $449.99 or 64gb for $399.99. Is it worth me getting that or waiting til maybe next year and wait for the 12 mini 128gb to drop in price (currently $779.99) or 64gb ($729.99)?

I own an iPad Mini 5, so having the iPhone 12 Mini works perfectly for everyday phone and light to moderate media consumption use. Having briefly owned the iPhone SE 2 and barely getting through the day on a charge with it; coupled with Apple touting the 12 Mini as having two more hours of battery life, I can confidently say this phone will last me through the day with a more comfortable margin of battery life left.
