Apple iPhone 12 Mini 256GB - White MGEA3X/A review
The smallest iPhone in years still has all the power of its larger sibling and comes with a cost saving. It’s the perfect choice for compact phone lovers.- Compact size
- Great screen quality
- Top camera
- One-hand operation
- A little small for gaming and video
- Entry-level storage is low
- Battery life not as good as other iPhones
Apple iPhone 12 Mini 256GB - White MGEA3X/A review
People who want a smaller phone will be hard-pressed to find a device as compelling as the iPhone 12 mini. That's because Apple took nearly everything that worked well in the larger iPhone 12 including its high-powered A14 Bionic chipset and excellent cameras and packed them into a pint-sized frame.- Small design makes it easy to handle
- Excellent performance
- Beautiful screen
- Lackluster battery life
- Slower MagSafe charging
Apple iPhone 12 Mini (256GB, Green) - Excellent review
So cute! Smartphones are getting bigger and bigger, but Apple offers a real alternative with the iPhone 12 mini, which is unique in the high-end segment with its 5.4-inch screen. However, the small form factor also poses problems. Find out whether Apple's mini mix works out in this review.- bright and color-accurate display, fast SoC, good dual camera, accurate positioning, wide frequency coverage
- OLED flickering, mediocre speakers, no mmWave in Europe, no 5G for dual-SIM, limited NFC
Apple iPhone 12 Mini 256GB - White MGEA3X/A review
If you asked me which of the four different models of the new iPhone 12 you should buy without providing any further context on your needs or desires, I would tell you to buy the regular iPhone 12 without question. It has the best balance of screen size, storage, cameras, battery life, and value.- Excellent camera
- Small with great build quality
- Fast
- Battery life is below average
- Is mmWave 5G really necessary?
- 60Hz screen is behind the competition
Apple iPhone 12 Mini review
After spending a few days with the iPhone 12 Mini, there’s plenty to like about Apple’s smallest smartphone, a model that delivers a hand-sized phone made for humans. It’s just so nice to come back to this style of phone: small.- Beautifully sized and feels great in the hands, Sized for people and pockets, Flat edged design language makes it easy to hold, It can stand up on surfaces, Durability improvements to the screen glass, Great camera system in a phone this size, Excellent performance, Fast 5G support, Wireless...
- Battery is not the greatest, No support for Apple's ProRAW format

Apple iPhone 12 Mini 256GB - White MGEA3X/A review
Apple's iPhone 12 mini delivers the best price-to-power ratio of any 2020 iPhone, bringing top-of-the-line features to a phone that easily fits into smaller hands.- Perfect hand-friendly form factor
- Excellent performance
- Better battery life than other small iPhones
- Shorter battery life than larger iPhones
Apple iPhone 12 Mini 256GB - White MGEA3X/A review
The iPhone 12 mini has no right being the cheapest model in Apple’s iPhone 12 family. Sure, on paper you’re spending the smallest amount on the smallest display, but – like the most engaging gadgets – the spec comparisons simply don’t capture the true charm.- Small size without power compromise
- Same great cameras as on the iPhone 12
- 5G supports fastest mmWave - if you can find it
- Battery life could be better
- No 120Hz display
Apple iPhone 12 Mini 256GB - White MGEA3X/A review
The iPhone 12 Mini is one of the best compact smartphones you can buy, and it has fantastic performance and cameras to boot....- Great design Compact size Super-fast performance Incredible ecosystem Quick to charge
- even at 18W
- No telephoto lens iOS is limiting No power adapter in the box Hard to wirelessly charge Sub-par battery life
Apple iPhone 12 Mini 256GB - White MGEA3X/A review
The Apple iPhone 12 Mini was, for me, a real throwback to the days of compact smartphones before we called them compact, and for many people in and around my generation whose first smartphones were the iPhone 3, 4, and 5, the size of the new 12 Mini will be enough of a draw on its own.- Compact size
- A14 Bionic performance
- Pleasing camera performance
- The most customisable Apple software ever
- Battery life is the compact compromise
- Only 12W wireless charging
- Entry-level 64GB model is not enough storage in 2020
