In 2020, phones are big. Even the small ones are big. The iPhone 12 Mini is wonderful because it's not big. It's truly small. When Apple announced the Mini along with the iPhone 12, 12 Pro and 12 Pro Max it was a remarkable moment for small phone lovers like myself. For a long time, we've wanted Apple to make a truly small iPhone in the vein of the iPhone 5, 5S or original SE. Earlier this year, Apple got our hopes up a bit, when it released a new iPhone SE which put the brains of the iPhone 11 Pro into the smallish body of the iPhone 8. It's a solid phone for the price, but it's tucked inside a three-year-old design.

Move over, iPhone SE. This small iPhone is a one-handed phone user's dream.

It's actually small; 5G support; Easy to use one-handed; Fits in most pockets; Same cameras and everything as the iPhone 12;

Baseline iPhone 12 Mini only has 64GB of storage; Back glass is a fingerprint magnet; Battery life is good for the size, but just OK compared to the iPhone 12;

Small phone fans rejoice! The iPhone 12 mini is a pocket rocket with almost everything from the regular flagship inside a beautifully compact chassis.

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

Great camera; Compact size; OLED screen; 5G;

Battery life ; 64GB is a bit measly for some;
