Needed to upgrade my phone and chose the 12 mini based on its size and power. The screen size (view) is the same as my 6s but the actual phone is smaller, something I prefer over the larger phones. I’ve heard the battery life is slightly downgraded in the mini but I haven’t had any issues based on how I use mine. Bottom line. Has everything I need and fits in my pocket

I upgraded from 7 to 12 mini; phone is faster and screen is bigger compared to the 7 although is currently the smallest version apple has from the 12 line up. Not bad.
BB had a better deal than current phone carrier (shame on you sprint/t-mobile).
I placed the order for this product and BB had it ready within 15 minutes. Good job!

I use this mini as my second phone when my Samsung S20+ is running out of juice. Let me just say ive always liked apples software but i just prefer Android because it's better for multitasking. However this little guy packs a punch. It's fast always reliable. Although the screen size might be a problem for many it's exactly what I need. It fits in my pocket it's light weight. This thing is perfect . Hopefully apple does not discontinue the mini! Fits in your pocket !
My only complaint is that i notice a huge different in refresh rate when switching between my Samsung and iPhone mini. The mini is a bit slower. I wish apple would make 120 refresh rate bc samsung beats them in that department and yes you can tell the difference

I got this iPhone 12 Mini as part of an upgrade offer through Sprint, but purchased at BestBuy. The phone is fast, easy-to-use, and has a lot of upgrades compared to the previous generation. The only downside to this phone is the battery doesn't normally last all day long.

Years ago, my wife had an iPhone SE. She loved that phone and we kept it for years. One day it got randomly dropped on its face and that was the end of that phone. I replaced it with an iPhone X, which my wife hated every day she owned it. Fortunately, the 12 mini came out and my wife is happy again. It is the perfect size for her hands, and she loves how it feels and works.

I love the phone, the smaller size is great!
However, the free 6 month Apple Music subscription was only 3 months when I redeemed it. Other than that everything is great!

My favorite! It’s small enough for my tiny hands lol and works great. It does freeze once in a while but I’d totally buy it again.

Perfect fit! I was worried it would be too small, but it’s perfect. Camera is amazing of course, and I love using the Magsafe charger

I love this phone. I upgraded from the 8 to this. And yes it’s smaller. But it’s perfect for me, since it’s smaller it fits nice in my back pocket. Plus buying from Best Buy full price has a better deal then t-mobile.

This is a good upgrade to my iPhone 7. I really like the face ID and the swipe feature - saves a lot of time. Even though the phone is a bit smaller, the screen is actually bigger. The battery lasts all day. I love the red color, but Best Buy didn't have a matching case in stock - disappointing.

Best iPhone I ever had. I’ve had 4,5,6plus,7, and x. This one 12mini is the iPhone I’ve always dreamed about.

Upgrading from an iPhone 7. While the screen size is technically larger, the width of the phone is a tad slimmer, but it still feels great in the hand. I ordered one on a Wednesday night and received it by Friday. Very pleased!
