    If you like the iPhone, but don't want a large model this is a great unit. For a time I drifted toward the larger models of phones whether it be Android or iPhone, but now I prefer one I can more easily hold with one hand. However, I didn't want to sacrifice on the specifications like some of the older smaller units did. The only complaint I have is the unit could have better battery life. With heavy usage, it may be difficult to get through a full day.

    At first, I was concerned about the smaller size, but am happy with this phone because it fits in more pockets than my larger iPhone did - works like a charm.

    Nice little phone. Fits easily in the pocket and does everything I need it. The phone can wirelessly charge and the battery life is good. The screen is nice too. It doesn’t look like Apple cheapened out on this phone.

    amazing new phone had the original SE for ages due to the perfectly small size. this phone, while slightly larger, is the closest thing to a replacement and the upgrade is totally worth the minor size addition.

    I'm very pleased with my new Apple IPhone 12 mini. The price was very reasonable (for a new IPhone) and I appreciate the slightly smaller size. It fits easily into my pocket or purse. This was a great buy!

    So far best iPhone I have had in years the mini is the perfect size to better fit in your hands on the go. With the touch screen it really uses all the size to feel like a larger phone when viewing videos or FaceTime.

    I love this phone. I went from a 6s to a 12 mini, so I was worried about the transition and losing the home button. I've gotten used to the facial recognition and I like it. It takes really good photos as well.

    Be sure to buy a protective case. Exterior surface is slippery. After initial attempt to transfer data from old phone to new, was able to restart and complete data transfer. Wireless transfer process copies all apps, files, etc. So far, battery life is good. Phone is functioning. Incoming call ringtone is tinny.

    I chose this phone to replace my Iphone 8. Perfect pocket size phone with the modern touch of the larger Iphones. This phone does not have the button and takes some getting use to.

    The last of a dying breed. iPhone 5 was the pinnacle in phone sizes for me, glad they made this size variant. Sad that this might be the last generation.

    A great device for small hands. The larger phones are prone to dropping but not the mini. My granddaughter has tiny hands and she just loves her new phone.

    Replaced a I Phone 5c. This thing has more that you can use unless the user is a device smart person. It beings me into the present and has me working to make sense of everything it will do, more that most persons need. It doesn't even need a manual, not included, because it is so friendly.
