    When I saw that Apple had made a mini phone, I was very curious and kinda excited. I LOVE my mini! It fits great in my hands, pockets, purse, etc. I LOVE how compact it is!! It’s a big downgrade going from an 8 plus to the mini but it was sooooo worth it! It is definitely worth the buy!

    Enjoying my smaller iPhone, the “mini”. Actually, thought I might be disappointed because of downsizing, but the size is much more accommodating for travel, etc. love it!

    So far, so good. Still learning how to use the iPhone 12, after using an iPhone 5 for years. The camera is definitely better, which I like. But some of the workings seem unnecessarily complicated. Luckily, the Geek Squad has been very helpful.

    Bought this for my fiancee as an upgrade to her old iPhone. She loves it. It is nice that this a smaller phone and can be easily handled. It is similar to the size of an iPhone 6. Can't go wrong with iPhones, they are consistently top-notch.

    Making the switch from android has been interesting but I am really starting to like the phone a lot. My favorite thing is the size of the phone. It is not tiny but is smaller than my previous phones which is a nice change of pace.

    Very happy with this phone so far! The battery life is outstanding, especially compared to my 6s. I wasn’t planning on buying this, but I told myself if I can find it for $200 off I would pull the trigger! Thanks Best Buy!

    I think the size of this phone is perfect! Instead of having to hold my phone as I did in the past, this model fits nicely in my pocket. That works best for me as I don't put it down and forget where I put it anymore.

    the Apple iPhone 12 mini 5G 64GB so far is the best cell phone I have ever owned. The size, although smaller than my previous cell phone, has all I need. It even feels better in my hand over my previous iPhone 10.

    Started with an iPhone 4S, 5S, 6S then 8 Plus, this is by far the best iPhone yet. Battery life is not an issue and Siri is 100% accurate! Nice to be able to hold the phone in one hand again and slip the phone right into my pocket.

    Amazing phone. I upgraded from an 11, because I wanted a smaller phone. I prefer to use my phone with one hand, and the 11 proved to be too big. One thing I wasn’t expecting was the screen quality. Apple finally started using OLED on their phones, and this display is outstanding. Battery is a downgrade, but it will get you through the day.

    I bought this phone for my husband for Father's Day. His was an iphone 7 so he needed an upgrade. We got the iphone 12 mini because it is close in size to what he had and it's a 5G phone. He's very happy with it.

    For those who want the advanced tech and latest amenities in a iPhone 5-ish size. Purchased for a family member who wanted a smaller form iPhone for better hand grip. I prefer the iPhone 12 over the mini but I guess the one advantage is it does not stick out when in your pocket.

    So far so good. Once the operating system was updated it works great. The size is good (still a little large), the screen size is very good, and the screen is crisp. Like all iphones it's on the expensive side.

    So far the set up has been awesome and easy. I did have an iPhone 6 previous to this one and obviously it runs so much better. I thought the staff was also super nice and helpful when I came to pick this up.

    This is an excellent small iPhone and it is a great price. This is the only other small phone apples sells other than the SE2020 and is a better value for the money. The battery is going to be smaller as it is the mini but it is still better than the battery of my last iPhone.

    The size is perfect for me. Pair it with an otter box and it fits just right in my pocket. Easy to use though the swiping took me a while to get the hang of. I miss the home button.

    Phone is a great size. Similar to my iPhone 6s. Recent update from Apple has caused all my sounds/notifications to not work. This is my second phone because the Apple update didn’t work. Hopefully Apple will correct it soon.
