I think this is one of the best phones in 2021 because Apple finally perfected the tiny phone and they're really the only ones offering this form factor. It may not be a foldable but what it is,is a phone for people who don't wanna constantly be sucked into their phone but still want a good product. A 7 inch screen is awesome but sometimes it's nice to have a phone that just works when you need it,as opposed to a huge consumption device that consumes you.
Exactly. If I used my phone constantly, I'd get a Pixel. Android is easier to use and offers better customizability. But I don't use my phone obsessively. So I'd rather get a small phone that works consistently without fuss. That's why I got the iPhone Mini.
@@smileychess Yeah,originally when I posted that comment I was strongly considering it,but I got mine a month or so ago and it’s 100% perfect for me and my use.
I actually have an iPhone 8 right now and I’ve been using it since it’s release date, so about 3-4 years I think. It’s been serving me well but the battery has degraded to 76% and it’s been getting slower. I’m due for an upgrade fortunately and I’m definitely gonna pick up the 13 mini tomorrow. Personally I like smaller iPhones because they just fit better in my hands as well as my pockets, so I think the 13 mini is a good choice!
I bought one, coming form an iPhone 11and am very happy indeed. It's a huge upgrade from that phone with far better camera and screen. The battery life seems to be about the same and easily gets me through the day, though I don't go in for high intensity stuff such as video games.. Best of all though is the form factor. Although the screen is supposedly small, 5.4" is actually the perfect size for a phone imho. There's very little that seems cramped and being able to use it with one hand is a massive boon. The only irritations are the retention of the notch and not moving over to USB-C connection, but all iPhones have these issues.
Love mine. Had a 13 pro max, swapped for this. Love being able to put in my pocket and not being constantly reminded about a huge phone. Facebook is a huge memory drain. Deleted it and save as a safari shortcut. Love this phone.
@@vaniraven3494 Yes it does. A friend has the same phone, we both use about the same amount. He would be 10-15% basis points lower in the afternoon than me. He deleted the app and saved the shortcut. We matched after that.
@Al Samuelson Considering making this exact switch. How has the battery, non-pro motion and smaller keyboard been? The Pro Max is a beast in battery, but gosh, it's so dang big and heavy to carry around. I considered the 12 mini but couldn't justify it given the 11 pro I had. Would love to hear more thoughts!
@@jeffmcintoshmusic Pro motion would be nice, but I didn't have on the 12 Max so don't miss it. I'm a pretty big guy. but the keyboard has been fine. Nice to be able to use one-handed again. Battery life actually is pretty good. Get rid of the facebook app and save it as a shortcut. I don't game so no feedback there. I do watch movies, etc, fine. I actually got used to the size pretty quickly. Everytime I pick this phone up, I LOVE the size. Go for it.
Since support for my trusty 6s is being terminated, it was time to go looking. I decided on the 13 mini. The 13 mini is comparable in size to the 6s - a little smaller but a little thicker but still about the same weight. But the performance is incomparable. A bit of a learning curve going from 6 to 13, but anyone looking to replace an older small device, I couldn't recommend this little guy more. A quality instrument that I expect to use until Apple decides to not support it anymore.
I’ve been trying to cling to my 6s, but it’s been glitching lately. Didn’t know about the support being terminated, but guess I’ve got to upgrade either way. Good to hear the 13 mini is the way to go.
It’s all a marketing thing. If the mini was actually called the ‘iPhone 13’ and if the 6.1” was actually called ‘iPhone 13 Plus’ iPhone 13 Pro Plus, iPhone 13 Pro Max, then the mini would sell wayyyyyyy bettter, since ‘mini’ has that connotation that you’re losing out on something
this is what i thought. if Apple toss the "mini" word. it will sell better and no one ever debate about mini=smaller. it will be just a regular size iphone.
i bought the midnight mini 256 , love it . is bugger all faster than my XR , and i get the same battery life from both . the camera on the XR is great but the camera on the mini is leaps and bounds ,
13 mini is a flagship phone that’s easy in the pockets and not even that small if you compare it to the iPhone 4 even . Best size and tech in one package .
While the iPhone 13 mini is definitely a major improvement over the iPhone 12 mini, I'd still recommend a slightly thicker case because of the high cost of the device ($799 for the 256 GB version). I'd recommend something like the Spigen Ultra Hybrid clear, which offers good protection without adding too much bulk to the phone itself. By the way, I really wonder will the iPhone 13 mini eventually become the iPhone SE 3, deleting Face ID in favor of a larger power button with Touch ID on the button itself (like what's done with the iPad mini and iPad air current versions).
I went from an iPhone 12 pro max to an iPhone 13 mini. Definitely noticed smaller battery size. But the compact factor of the 13 mini outweighs the smaller battery. Just keep a 20 W charger in the car and on the nightstand and keep a wireless charger on the desk and you should be fine.
iPhone SE review after 30 days: I'm surprised... iPhone 12 mini review after 30 days: I'm surprised... iPhone 13 mini review after 30 days: I'm surprised...... Same bullshit everytime.
One of the best things about this phone that I haven’t seen mentioned anywhere is how ridiculously easy it makes it to pay with Apple Pay. It’s beyond convenient to whip this manageable sized phone out of your pocket for point of sale machine purchases. Truly that is one of my favourite things about using the 13 mini.
i think it’s really funny when the reviews call the screen “small” cause my current phone is the se2020 so actually that screen size is bigger then what i’ve got. so im excited to get it!
lots going on here, my provider is sunsetting their 3G network feb. 2022, time to say goodbye to my favorite longest supported iPhone the 5s. the iPhone 13 mini will keep me in the smallish form factor and provide me with a updated device for a longtime, maybe not as long as the 5s, but only time will tell. Super helpful review.
I’m very satisfied with my red mini. Camera is great, batter life is way better than I expected. Smaller notch looks way better than the old one on 12 mini (I think look of the new notch on bigger iPhones reminds huawei lol) speaker looks also slim an beautiful. The only con is lightning. C’mon, it’s the end of the 2021 and we still have usb 2.0. All the rest is excellent on this small guy.
I’m also thinking of getting the mini and was considering product red. Can you explain what the color and the texture of the back is like? Also what’s the battery life like?
@@sidv4615 battery life is great for such a small & powerful phone. After 12 hours I got 40-60% battery left with approximately 5 hours of screen time. The colour is actually red, not like light red on 12. It’s like blood/rose red, I really like it.
@@Nogitsune_Yako that's exactly what i thought when i saw the color on the net. Now i'll definitely get the red. Btw how easy is it really to get the phone smudged?
I switched from an SE2 to the 13 Mini and couldn’t be happier with it. I don’t want a honkin huge phone to try and figure out how I'm going to fit it in my pocket!! My reason for picking the Mini was based on the idea of having a phone that works…as a phone! I got a Blue 128GB and haven’t looked back. No buyers remorse. Battery life is great IF I use Low Power mode, if not then it is very good. To make the most of that 128GB, I removed all the productivity apps and limit games to Chess. My apps are mainly utility apps that give functionality, after all, who is going to write a paper or produce a Keynote presentation on a 5.4” screen, work up a spreadsheet??? I also don’t plan on writing music or edit films though the A15 is up to the task. Doing this leaves me with 100GB of storage space. More than enough for my needs. I might have gone with the 256GB but I would just wind up with even more unused space for $100 more! So, I went with the base model and saved a $100 since it was $599 with T-Mobile's promo price. Add $180 trade in and I got mine for $480!!! That was over a month ago. How has it faired? Fantastic!
I've had this phone for a week and it's awesome, I've been waiting a long time for a performance small form factor and finally it has arrived. Those who complain about battery life seriously have nothing to do that spend their time on their phones. I use it about 3 hours a day, a few videos, a few photos, the internet, music, social networks, a few telephone conversations, text messages and I never went to bed at night with less than 40% of battery.
I went from a XS max to the 13 mini and i’m more than happy with it! At first it felt small which was great but also not great while reading stuff then I got used to it and now I don’t have that feeling anymore. I can finally put my phone in my pocket and that’s a huge plus! I plan to keep it for years
@@xyclonerippr8441 seriously it’s almost a perfect phone, the only thing I wish it had was the matte rear glass like the pros, other than that no complaint whatsoever
@@JoleneAliciaElias The battery in my 13 mini out last my iPhone 12 (6.1 inch display) you definitely won’t be disappointed in the battery of this iPhone.
I use i phone 13 mini. It’s awesome. And for my type of use it gives me almost 24 hrs battery backup from 80% to 20%. I feel that that is super. I am not a heavy user though. it is giving me similar battery backup as my Samsung A51 with similar usage.
Do you feel like it is heating a lot? I run the antutu benchmark and without case it was getting veery hot. I wonder if i have a bad piece or if it does heat up because it is a small phone?
The mini is a good size but not with that ginormous notch. It’s 2021 and iPhone users are still forced to live with a notch for something thats being used 2% of your day. The notch is not there to improve your viewing, gaming, or browsing experience. So I don’t understand why apple is keeping it. I have tried face recognition on ipad, in display fingerprint on my samsung note. They are okay features but they’re not the best. Like when you have to swipe up to open the ipad after the fact that your face is recognized is just silly. In display fingerprint scanners are not as fast as 1st gen backmounted scanners. There’s nothing wrong if you go back to old technology that works but definitely wrong in sticking too bad tech.
@@rohithreddy75 i don't about everyone but when i pick up my phone or ipad it is always because I want to use it for something. I rarely pick up my device to see the notifications panel. Ohhh and to answer your question... You can swipe down anytime to see notifications after the device is unlocked..... whether it's Android or ios
Got ours last week; not surprised, pretty much what I expected. The three things for me are size, size, and size. Our decision to buy the 13 Mini was based on the hot rumors that there will be no 14 Mini. Not having any phablets, even though we’re completely surrounded by the Apple ecosystem.
I have the 13 mini and the one thing I don’t like is the battery. The last iPhone I had was the 11. It would end the day after the same use with 45-50%. But my mini usually ends the work day with 20% and a few times I had to charge at work. I work on the dock so I’ll use my phone as a podcast or UA-cam video watching device alongside my station. Anyway, I should have gotten the regular 13.
Great review. I'm on my 2nd day with the 13 mini, coming from an XR. Loving the form factor so far. I'm really pleased with it and thinking it may be really hard to return to the larger screens in the future after this. Been there and done that for many years.
@@opal_skies97 I have no regrets. May never go to a larger screen again. With moderate use, I was charging my XR at end of every evening. Now I can get 3 to 4 days with the same use. It is a new phone so pretty much expected.
Phone & tablet size has disproportionately risen lately when they were always originally intended to be small, the iPhone mini 13 & the iPad mini 6 are the perfect combination of fully functioning lightweight powerful products in a compact portable format, expensive yes but totally unique & niche.
The best Iphone ever is iPhone 13 Mini. Hope Apple keep having it in phone lineup. Any way I bought and will keep one for me to use for long time, 05 coming years at least.
It's amazing to me that the iPhone 13 has the same amount of icons as the Mini. Certainly as it relates to the home screen, there's not much advantage for the extra $100...
If you are just a regular user mini will suffice. The battery is decent enough for me. I dont mind charging it every night. I love my iphone13 mini ❤️❤️
Tbh if you're not a big gamer and are not a constant video shooting user, the phone's amazing. I'm not a gamer, use the camera maybe for a minute or two a day max, tons of social media and have a 4:45hr-6h SoT average on 4G and honestly, the lowest battery % I've had left on a 14hr day is 30%.
If you’re shelling such high price, You definitely don’t want to compromise on extra screen state. Hence poor sales. All they have to do is lower the price.
I have one on order and I can’t wait for its arrival! I’m not only ditching a large phone, the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra, but obviously Android too. I’m tired of the bulk. I’ll use my iPad for games and such. Thanks for the ad on the case, it looks perfect!
I decided to switch from my 6.67 inch phablet to normal human hand sized phone and imagine my surprise when I found out that only iPhone could offer such phone, I'm really amazed that every phone manufacturer with a good name produces only 6+ inch phones nowadays
nobody reported that the 13 mini would be cancelled, quite the contrary. It was stated that it will be the last mini iPhone, as the upcoming iPhone 14 will have a different lineup
wasnt gonna upgrade this year either from an x but since the screen broke on me decided to go ahead and get this phone. Was a tough battle to decide between this or the pro but after a while this seem like the best bang for ur buck. The camera suck but i have a dedicated camera anyway, so the only lost was the 120hz :( but i love the size since 6.1 is low key for me this was a bit smaller than the x but low key after a few hours of using it u dont even notice it. Used the extra money i woulda spend on the pro on case and battery and charging cables xD
I'm upgrading from a Samsung Galaxy Android to the iPhone 13 minute before I went to another Galaxy phone I used to have the second Gen se. Not sure if ill go with the 3rd gen se or the 13 but 13 mini.
I’m so upset I couldn’t get the pink I ended up with blue because I needed to port over but hopefully they’ll get more locally before my exchange period is up
Thanks for the video. I'm an Android user making the big switch to the iPhone 13 mini. I'm making some big trade-offs, but am fed up with how random and inconsistent accessibility for the visually impaired community is in Samsung devices. Ease of use, and playing well together are crucial for me now, and the mini gets me started in iOS with a little extra cash to get a watch, some earbuds, or an iPad.
The mini series brought me back to ios after 6 years of android. Ive got a s23 and a 13 mini. The minis size is perfect and i believe its only apple who could make a flag ship of this size due to how efficient ios is compared to andriod.
The only thing that stop me from buying this smartphone is the zoom, is it bad? I don’t take so many shots , especially with zoom camera on my iPhone X , but I wouldn’t like to spend 800€ for a smartphone that gives me bad results , even in the mode that I use less
800 pounds, you’re getting ripped off unless it’s a 512gb! iPhone 13 mini will take better pictures with a notable difference between the two so you should be fine
Apple's production is locked in for the next year so by the time they found out the 12 mini wasn't selling well it's not like they could stop the 13 mini.
Rumors are saying no, they’re gonna have two 6.1 inch iPhones (1 a pro the other a regular) and then two 6.7 inch iPhones (1 a pro the other a regular)
Hi I’ve been using the IPhone SE (2020) for a bit more than over a year now and I’m thinking about buying a new phone because of the terrible battery life of the SE. Do you think it’s worth upgrading to the 13 mini?
Yes absolutely! You will see massive improvements with the camera & performance in particular, and noticeable improvements with battery life as well. You lose TouchID obviously, but the form factor & size is very comfortable with increased screen real estate

@@rohithreddy75 i don't about everyone but when i pick up my phone or ipad it is always because I want to use it for something. I rarely pick up my device to see the notifications panel.
Ohhh and to answer your question...
You can swipe down anytime to see notifications after the device is unlocked..... whether it's Android or ios
Got ours last week; not surprised, pretty much what I expected. The three things for me are size, size, and size. Our decision to buy the 13 Mini was based on the hot rumors that there will be no 14 Mini. Not having any phablets, even though we’re completely surrounded by the Apple ecosystem.
I returned the 13 pro after 2wks of usage for the 13 mini, coz the pro just felt too heavy n bulky.
13 pro is not that heavy and is of same weight as 8+
@@rohithreddy75 well…..That’s why I’m not using the 13 pro or the 8+😅
Which color on the mini?
@@D_kiki999 Lol whatever works for you,What did u purchase then?
exactly same here 😂
Got my mini recently. Very satisfied with it. I use it for my daily and my other devices for more battery intensive use if needed
I have the 13 mini and the one thing I don’t like is the battery. The last iPhone I had was the 11. It would end the day after the same use with 45-50%. But my mini usually ends the work day with 20% and a few times I had to charge at work. I work on the dock so I’ll use my phone as a podcast or UA-cam video watching device alongside my station. Anyway, I should have gotten the regular 13.
Great review. I'm on my 2nd day with the 13 mini, coming from an XR. Loving the form factor so far. I'm really pleased with it and thinking it may be really hard to return to the larger screens in the future after this. Been there and done that for many years.
How does the battery on the 13 mini compare? I'm considering upgrading from my XR, too!
@@opal_skies97 I have no regrets. May never go to a larger screen again. With moderate use, I was charging my XR at end of every evening. Now I can get 3 to 4 days with the same use. It is a new phone so pretty much expected.
I want a iPhone mini pro 😢
Phone & tablet size has disproportionately risen lately when they were always originally intended to be small, the iPhone mini 13 & the iPad mini 6 are the perfect combination of fully functioning lightweight powerful products in a compact portable format, expensive yes but totally unique & niche.
The best Iphone ever is iPhone 13 Mini. Hope Apple keep having it in phone lineup. Any way I bought and will keep one for me to use for long time, 05 coming years at least.
You get those great cameras and screen in this tiny shell. Oh, and a bigger battery! Win for Apple here.
Almost perfect phone, hope for future models with even better battery, telephoto and lidar sensor
It's amazing to me that the iPhone 13 has the same amount of icons as the Mini. Certainly as it relates to the home screen, there's not much advantage for the extra $100...
Some ppl like me aren't able to use smaller phones because of big hands haha plus I prefer the bigger screen for a games or videos
PHNX Cases have good grip?
Give me 120Hz and even better battery life next year and I might seriously consider the 14 mini.
would 120 Hz refresh draw more power?
This is a great point and shoot device that happens to be a Apple smartphone.
I wish they released an iPhone Pro Mini, so it has all the cameras and better battery life!
I disagree with you I have 2 iPhone mini 12's .. both amazing on battery! ..
It would have been a slam dunk at the iPhone SE price point but it's a hard sell for me at $700 with its small battery and 60 Hz display
Got a 13 mini last week. Have been wanting this device so I pulled the trigger and loving it so far!!!
If you are just a regular user mini will suffice. The battery is decent enough for me. I dont mind charging it every night. I love my iphone13 mini ❤️❤️
Sanaol
What is your charging cycle?
hey I have a question, If I had a choice to get iphone 13 (128) or iphone 13 mini (256), which one should I get?
Get 13 mini both are same
Hi. Can you please share a link to the wallpaper ?
Tbh if you're not a big gamer and are not a constant video shooting user, the phone's amazing. I'm not a gamer, use the camera maybe for a minute or two a day max, tons of social media and have a 4:45hr-6h SoT average on 4G and honestly, the lowest battery % I've had left on a 14hr day is 30%.
I guess I'm going to have to buy a bigger phone since I'll be using the camera quite a lot.
@@shauncameron8390 Yeah! I'd recommend that. You'd be much more comfortable with it battery wise :)
If you’re shelling such high price, You definitely don’t want to compromise on extra screen state. Hence poor sales. All they have to do is lower the price.
Hi, 13 Mini is great, compact & capable.
Brennan and Dale says, “So much extra space in our pocket to do activities”, when asked about the iPhone 13 Mini.
I have one on order and I can’t wait for its arrival! I’m not only ditching a large phone, the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra, but obviously Android too. I’m tired of the bulk. I’ll use my iPad for games and such.
Thanks for the ad on the case, it looks perfect!
I decided to switch from my 6.67 inch phablet to normal human hand sized phone and imagine my surprise when I found out that only iPhone could offer such phone, I'm really amazed that every phone manufacturer with a good name produces only 6+ inch phones nowadays
nobody reported that the 13 mini would be cancelled, quite the contrary. It was stated that it will be the last mini iPhone, as the upcoming iPhone 14 will have a different lineup
wasnt gonna upgrade this year either from an x but since the screen broke on me decided to go ahead and get this phone. Was a tough battle to decide between this or the pro but after a while this seem like the best bang for ur buck. The camera suck but i have a dedicated camera anyway, so the only lost was the 120hz :( but i love the size since 6.1 is low key for me this was a bit smaller than the x but low key after a few hours of using it u dont even notice it. Used the extra money i woulda spend on the pro on case and battery and charging cables xD
Gorgeous mini phone 😍🥰
Absolutely! 💯
@@TechDaily 🥰👍👊
only thing I would change is get rid of the notch completely even if it means no selfie camera
Upgrading every year isn't for everyone. Anyone with a 12 should wait for the 14
Is anyone else completely psyched for when iPhones don't have a notch and it's just even bezel all the way around? I think that idea is just awesome!
I hope that happens one day! With the new MacBook Pros getting the notch though…I almost feel like Apple doubled down on that design 🙃
Yes!
Lmao Android phones have had that for years, pathetic iphone fanboys paying thousand plus for a notch.
@@Nexy9 yh apple r slow
@@Nexy9 we still get a chin
I'm upgrading from a Samsung Galaxy Android to the iPhone 13 minute before I went to another Galaxy phone I used to have the second Gen se. Not sure if ill go with the 3rd gen se or the 13 but 13 mini.
6:06 anyone else noticed how the wath is going backwards? :D
Iphone 13 mini is a great companion when it comes to running & hiking
Awesome size but upcoming version not to see
I really like this phone lol
I still think the mini is worth it although I bought the regular size 13 in pink.
I’m so upset I couldn’t get the pink I ended up with blue because I needed to port over but hopefully they’ll get more locally before my exchange period is up
The light pink color looks so cute
i need the wallpaper
Should i upgrade from my iPhone 11 if the iPhone 13 Mini is the last mini? Bc I really want a smaller phone and Apple is my only choice :)
Hell yes. The 11 is pretty heavy
@@AlumarsX jup i really can‘t hold it in one hand :(
Yeay got mine and for my wife this 13 mini haha happy 7th anniversary to both of us😘
Can you post that wallpaper link?
+1
I would like to buy the mini it would be good for people with arthritis and wrist problems.😎🚲☔️🎃🇨🇦
Although I already have the 13 pro max I really want an iPhone 12 mini product red entirely because of the looks.
Thanks for the video. I'm an Android user making the big switch to the iPhone 13 mini. I'm making some big trade-offs, but am fed up with how random and inconsistent accessibility for the visually impaired community is in Samsung devices. Ease of use, and playing well together are crucial for me now, and the mini gets me started in iOS with a little extra cash to get a watch, some earbuds, or an iPad.
What issues were you having with the accessibility features on Android?
With that case looks better for the frosty finish love it
The mini series brought me back to ios after 6 years of android. Ive got a s23 and a 13 mini. The minis size is perfect and i believe its only apple who could make a flag ship of this size due to how efficient ios is compared to andriod.
Hands down is by far the most comfy one to use one handed....
Which racer game is that?
Which game was that in the starting of the video?
The only thing that stop me from buying this smartphone is the zoom, is it bad? I don’t take so many shots , especially with zoom camera on my iPhone X , but I wouldn’t like to spend 800€ for a smartphone that gives me bad results , even in the mode that I use less
800 pounds, you’re getting ripped off unless it’s a 512gb! iPhone 13 mini will take better pictures with a notable difference between the two so you should be fine
How much better is it than the iPhone SE
Here I am coming from a Galaxy s21 FE waiting for the iPhone 14 to be released so that I can buy a new 13 mini.
Iphone 13...13 min. video
Can u send me the wallpaper in the 13 mini please
Apple's production is locked in for the next year so by the time they found out the 12 mini wasn't selling well it's not like they could stop the 13 mini.
It's the first thing that succeeded my SE 2016, to me it feels large.
Will we see a 14 mini, that's the question?
Rumors are saying no, they’re gonna have two 6.1 inch iPhones (1 a pro the other a regular) and then two 6.7 inch iPhones (1 a pro the other a regular)
blue or starlight?
pink mini is one for me.
Me who’s used to 4.7 inch and wants the 13 pro. 😂😂😂 I’m not used to 6+ inches 🤣🤣 no I’m not!
That is a fake iPhone 13 min
#6:57 please anybody tell me the game name 🙏🙏😍😍
Surprised by 13 mini???? EVERY Tech UA-camr that matter all reported that there would be a 13 mini months before it came out. 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
Is this worth upgrading to a mini from an iPhone X?
From x to 13 mini? Heck yes
Hi I’ve been using the IPhone SE (2020) for a bit more than over a year now and I’m thinking about buying a new phone because of the terrible battery life of the SE. Do you think it’s worth upgrading to the 13 mini?
Yes absolutely! You will see massive improvements with the camera & performance in particular, and noticeable improvements with battery life as well. You lose TouchID obviously, but the form factor & size is very comfortable with increased screen real estate
I want to new apple products but more expensive in Turkey. 🇹🇷 iPhone 13 Mini 128 GB 10.999₺

Literally doesn't even fit completely inside my back pocket

You Should Probably Define Normal Use
