Upgraded from an X with no regrets. Size is perfect, and I couldn’t care less about not having the third camera that comes with the Pro models.

This phone is just adorable. I bought the Pro Max and the Mini on the same day because I just couldn’t decide between the two. I did end up choosing to keep the 12 Pro Max, but I really did enjoy the mini. I like it more than the regular 12.

Love the phone, w/no physical home button the screen is actually larger than my work issued iPhone 7, but in typical tech price fashion the price dropped by $230 4 days after my 14 day return/price match window ran out and Best Buy couldn't/wouldn't do anything. The 256GB is now even less than I paid for this 128GB model. I'll most likely buy another iPhone, but probably not from Best Buy.

Wife loves it so far. Does everything she used to do with her iPhone 8, except now takes much better pictures. If you love the small form factor phones, this is the last bastion of devices for you.

Love my new iPhone 12. I opted for the mini, for my purposes the smaller size is perfect. This phone is incredibly smart, and the features are excellent. The camera is outstanding.

So far, so good. I replaced my iPhone 7 because the speaker and battery had diminished. I'm still learning the new ways this generation works but know this will take time.

I went from a 11 pro max to this phone. Hands down such a good purchase. I was hesitant due to the small size but it's such a breath of fresh air being able to one hand use a phone

I got this phone for my wife because she didn’t like the size of the 11. She is happy with this phone because it fits in her pocket. The magsafe accessories are a nice bonus.

I’m starting to get used to the smaller phone again now. It’s so much lighter and easier to carry in my pocket. Still does it all in an easier size to handle.

The iPhone 12 mini resembles the iPhone 5 but larger. The features on this is better than I expected. I’ve had it for a couple of weeks and I’m still finding new things.

I upgraded from a 7, so it’s quite the change. Only thing I had to get used to was no home button. Love it otherwise!

Perfect sized phone for my girlfriend. She had an iPhone 8 Plus and funny enough this phone has similar screen size but a fraction of the size.

I would have given 5 stars except that they didn’t tell me that I needed to upgrade our service. As a result, I had poor service with the new phone. I went back in to Best Buy, I waited an hour before someone could tell me that the phone was fine-the problem was with the AT&T service.

So far it’s working well. I updated from a 6s, so I’m learning to not have a home button. The customer rep was very good about explaining everything to me and making the transition easy. I like the smaller size.

Good small phone. Does what it’s supposed to and would recommend. Just be wary of the battery lice if you watch videos a lot.
