    I love my new phone. I tend to keep phones for years. In fact, I would have kept my old 1st gen SE but it finally died. What I liked about my old phone is what I like about the iPhone 13 mini…the size. I run with my phone and it’s sized perfectly - it’s not too bulky that it is awkward. What I love about my new phone is its camera, storage size 5G capability and its speed. I’m hoping to keep this phone for at least 5 years.

    Im an android guy what can I say. I bought this phone for work and so I could use with my MacBook Pro since everything sync in easily. I love the size. small and compact! It does everything it needs to do. I wish you could personalize this more that the little you can. I also feel this phone should be $400 max.

    The iPhone 13 mini has great features like the picture quality, battery life, and the size. The picture quality looks really clear and the colors pop out. The battery life can last me up to 2 days depending how much I use it. The size is great fit for my hands and jean pockets.

    Love this phone! I am one of those who upgraded from the 12 mini, love the improvements! Better battery, brighter screen, better camera! It’s a great phone! Love the size and fit in my hand just as I did with the 12 mini! Perfect phone! Hope they make a 14 mini!

    I didn’t think I would love the mini as much as I do but I love the fact that Apple made a smaller, more affordable iPhone. Fit in your pocket with ease even with an otter box.

    I bought this model to replace the Apple 12 mini. I normally got about a day of battery life out of 12 mini. The 13 mini, i got 2 days of battery life. I usually don't buy a phone on the next model. The reviews were saying about double the batter life and bragged out the new processor. Very happy with the results

    The face recognition works pretty well. I was concerned that it wouldn't because I had heard of people having problems with that, but that was a long time ago so maybe they've improved it. In fact, it will even unlock the phone if your face is a little to the side. I have found that it doesn't always work when I have glasses/sunglasses on though so I have to lower them for it to recognize my face. One thing I don't like about what they did with the 13 mini is that you can't tell the percentage of battery life that's left without unlocking the phone and swiping the upper right corner down. Why wouldn't they make it more visible on the locked screen? Now it's extra steps.

    this watch is great! Just the right size for my smaller hand and easy to use. Well, as easy as any device is for an "older" person who is electronically challenged. The sale person, Timera, is marvelous. Between AT &T and her, I may get this thing working yet!

    I had an iPhone 11 and decided to upgrade. Wasn’t sure about the much smaller size of the 13 mini but after using the phone for a while the size is perfect and fits much better in my pocket. This phone is very fast and I really love the blue color.

    This was a birthday gift for my wife. She doesn’t like new technology ( she had a SE gen. 1) but she loves this phone. The size is the same and she found it to be really easy to use.

    The size reminds me of my iPhone 5. I love it! It fits easily into any pocket without creating a bulge or being uncomfortable. But the screen is .7" larger than on my iPhone 8. I thought I would miss the Home button. Great comfort in having a physical button. By the end of the first day, I couldn't imagine going back to a button. You still have buttons on the side of the phone. And thumbprint recognition had gotten to be a pain on my iPhone 8. Any moisture at all on you thumb and it won't read it. Or if the button is dirty. Facial recognition is awesomel Love the red color.

    I love the small size. It's rumored that Apple will not make another "mini" phone which is disappointing. I think this is what size a regular phone should be. I was getting tired of the weight and size of my XS Max so I bought this device. It works very well for my needs. I have great vision and I watch Netflix and all my other streaming apps on this device. The battery life is fine for my needs but don't expect to go longer than 24 hours without charging it for moderate use.
