    This phone has been great so far. Still larger than I would like but it performs well and it's nice to have a slightly smaller footprint over the previous few generations. Camera is a nice improvement.

    Great phone! Just left the Samsung camp for this. Much better battery life for its size. Low heat dispersion vs my old phone. Best thing is I no longer get jabbed or have to struggle to fit it in my pockets. With the 5g every thing is faster and the gps is more accurate . Added bonus is my expensive wireless Samsung chargers work with this phone .

    Finally, a phone reminiscent of iPhone 5 but with all the features of the 12. The mini is light, fits well in hand and the glass is super smooth. If you’re like me and don’t want a big phone and want one that actually fits in your shirt pocket, get the 12 mini. Face recognition takes a little getting used to coming from an 8. I think I have my last phone (until the next gray iPhone!

    The Perfect Size

    I am so exited and very happy that I chose to get the New iPhone 12 mini!!! Now I can handle the phone comfortably with one hand, it fits in my jeans pocket and I don’t have to fight with it trying to take it out of my pocket. The screen is really not that much smaller than the iPhone 10. You really don’t notice the difference while watching NETFLIX or YouTube videos. I’m very satisfied with my new iPhone mini. I hope that in the future that Apple will continue to make iPhones of this size. Thanks Apple!!

    I love how it feels in my hands. I can hold it with ease and type with one hand. I’m obsessed with the size but I only wish the storage were bigger.

    Upgraded my daughter's iPhone 8 to the 12 mini. She wanted the mini because it fit her hands better and that it also fit in pockets/purses easier. She loves the camera capabilities.

    Bought this for my wife who upgraded from iPhone 8. She loves the smaller size, even though screen is bigger. Had to call Apple to get data/apps transferred but this was the worst of the experience. Phone is great.

    Same great quality and experience I've come to expect from Apple. Worked great right out of the box. As an IT person, I would say that if you're not used to doing initial set-up yourself (installing SIM, activating service, etc) then you may be better off purchasing directly from a store (got this one delivered) so they do it for you. It's not hard, but there are no instructions. I just know that most of my users would be befuddled if they received it as it came.

    Curbside pickup is the best... Scan wait for a minute and then Go... as usual Iphone setup is getting easier.. just make sure both Phones are close to each other and setup was a breeze..
