    Love the 13 mini so much I traded in my old one after 2 years and got a new one with higher storage and a new color. Don’t understand why people don’t want a phone sized phone. Long live the 13 mini.

      I get what you said, I think for a lot of people is the battery life. I have a 14 pro and it feels a little bit big for me, if it wasn’t because of battery, I would have bought the 13 mini back then

    The 13 mini used to get great battery life before iOS 17 in my experience. It’s still good enough for most people,especially if you’re gonna be at work most the day anyway. Pro tip though,just disable 5G and leave it on LTE. LTE speeds are great and you’ll get the extra battery you want.

    After 10 years of using Android phones I switched to Apple and (as a fan of smaller phones) picked 13 Mini in 2022. Gotta say it was the best decision, Mini perfectly fits me and my requirements and even the battery drops a bit faster after update to iOS 17.2.1, I can still get through day without a problem.

    I absolutely love my 13 mini. I refuse to give it up. I was actually thinking about purchasing another one because I enjoy it that much. I use the 13 as my work phone and the 13 mini as my personal phone. I love its compact size, I don’t see what it lacks from the bigger phones. It’s a powerhouse and I’m here for it. Bigger isn’t always better. As long as it holds up, I’ll skip every other iPhone. So far I’ve kept to my word, I skipped the 14, 15 and looking forward to skipping the 16. I’d say the 13 mini has me a very satisfied customer.

    For those of us who prefer a small phone to enable 1-handed operation while carrying/moving/doing, the 13 Mini was/is a great device. It was a decent improvement over the 12 Mini, and the first really small phone since the original SE/5s/5 series. I agree that the bigger-is-better mentality has taken hold over the years, but I don't want a big phone. Apple said the original SE was the last tiny one then we got the Mini for 2 years. I hold out hope that another encore will someday occur.

    I just bought one finally. I’ve been waiting for a good deal, never going to happen. So I bought one anyways. I still have a 7 that does what I need. I’m a full size hands guy but the full size phones are ridiculous for me to use. I only use my phone for CarPlay, a few pics of my kids and sceneries, texts and emails. I use my iPad at home. The cinematic video and the bigger screen is the only reason I wanted to upgrade from the 7. The smaller the better, I already carry a bunch of junk in my pockets.

    I really needed something small to take pictures. I chose it over a camera because of versatility. I needed small because the photos I needed to take are difficult and require spontaneity. I also bought an old MacBook do airdrop the pictures to to advertise the business. I’ve never air dropped anything before. Im shelling out the cash not to make money but to just move my product that is swamping me. And lastly I’ve been logging into work from an iPad tethered to a flip phone. I love my indestructible excellent call quality keyocera but im getting tired of typing with my thumbs. As long as you use a lot of voice dictation and also have Siri read stuff on your screen to you, the mini will be good and not frustrating. If it gets to be too much just switch your sim for awhile.

    I feel like they might have just done that so people like us get it used and they don’t blow the budget to just serve the small crowd instead of keep offering it… so hopefully they do that again in a year or two OR what would also be cool would be a 15 pro but folded in half which would still be smaller than your standard z flip by Samsung so it’s an actual mini flip phone which could be good fun but personally I prefer this one cause it’s just fast to do stuff with and with the right widget apps you can get shortcuts on lockscreen etc etc I don’t even need the Dynamic Island and Action button of the pro tbh.
