I was sick of the giant tablet-sized smartphone trend of the last few years, and couldn't wait to downsize to this device. I hope to never go back to a larger phone! This has enough power and storage for me (upgraded to 256GB). Phone doesn't weigh down my pockets, it is easy to hold, and it is attractive and sleek! Best phone ever.

This was a long overdue upgrade. My previous iPhone 8 Plus and my new iPhone 13 mini are within .1 inches in screen size, yet the iPhone 13 mini is much smaller to hold. I wish it would have had the same fingerprint sensor/ power button like on the iPad air 4, but maybe the next model will get it. It charges pretty quick and the addition of magsafe is a welcome bonus. In direct sunlight youll be able to see the color "Midnight" is a dark dark blue.

This phone is legendary. The last of its kind, the mini. I can type with one hand or I can type with two hands. The fun doesn’t stop there. The mini allows for photo taking in even the smallest places.

I love this phone. It’s the perfect size to easily slip in your purse or pocket. The battery life is great and the performance is top notch. It’s an all around easy to use phone.

Love the size & color. Upgraded from an iphone 6 to this 13 & was worried it would be confusing or hard to adjust to as I am older but it is fine. Love the improved camera. I am more comfortable with the size with it being in a wallet type case rather than a clear type case. Also love how long the battery lasts between charging.

Bought for my son's first phone. Smaller size is easy to handle, easier to carry and has just as many features as the PRO. Good price for a really good phone. Battery is holding up great. Very happy

Power of an iPhone without the annoying size. I’ve got small hands and hate how big phones are now. I prefer to be able to use my phone one handed when I’m busy and I can do that with this phone.

I know I'm one of the odd balls that doesn't want a huge smart phone. I spend all day working on a computer, there are multiple tv's in my house. All I want to do is maybe call somebody, send a text or randomly google the odd fact and I can hold this phone comfortably in my hand, put it in a pocket and don't feel like I'm carrying a mini tablet

Just the right size to carry easily in my front pocket. Looks nice and I like the blue color after 5years of a black iPhone 7.
A very nice surprise was that employees at the phone desk of Best Buy had the capability to transfer everything in the 7 to the new 13 mini and did so at no additional charge in less than 30 minutes!

Had iPhone 11 - wanted more "pocketable" technology -- this does great for that and upgraded overall technology. Knowingly, I gave up screen size but gained in better screen clarity and much better picture taking quality.

It’s a comfortable size, simple, and comes with bells except the third camera. When’s the last time you had a full loaded phone that was able to fit inside any pocket or purse. Get one!

I have been very pleased with this phone. Number one: the color is awesome. Number two: it’s a good size phone. It’s not too big in your pocket and is easily maneuverable. I’m glad I made the switch.

The phone is great but the staff needs to be trained in how to transfer data and what WiFi to use in the store when doing so. They also need to change the sim car so it works
