Customers are saying

Customers love the iPhone 12 mini 5G 64GB's compact size and excellent camera quality. Many appreciate its smaller form factor, finding it easy to handle. A common concern, however, is the battery life, with some users reporting that it doesn't always last a full day. The smaller battery is the main drawback mentioned by some customers.

    Faster phone but the phone lacks the charging status on the front and also has a delicate charging cable which you have to buy seperatelry. Large black speaker grill on the front takes a large amount of room. Even though the phone is 5 G, I can't recommend the phone.

    Terrible battery life. I ended up returning mine for that reason. Sucks because the size of the phone is great. And don’t tell me the battery is that small because of the phone size. It was a way to cheapen the thing to get it to a lower price. Completely ruins the phone

    5 G upgrade has noticeably improved coverage and service on t-mobile. Magsafe charging a nice feature. These new phones really should come with the USB c plug.

    Upgraded from my iPhone 11, as I wanted a smaller device. This is absolutely perfect, and the activation in store made things nice and easy.

    I love having an I-phone. So much better than an android. Wish I would have gotten one sooner. There are so many more things I can do with it.
