    I bought the SE when it came out 1.5 years ago to get a taste in the ecosystem (followed by the Apple watch 6), because I already had a Macbook for work. I loved that phone, except for the miserable battery life and the horrendous fingerprint scanner that just does not work with sweaty fingers (migrated from the Galaxy S10E, which has a waaaay better one built into the power button). I was waiting for this refresh to come and went all in for the 13 Pro Max, because I've never had a large phone before, I always went for the "mini" whenever I had a chance, but not gonna lie, I love this form factor. I got used to the weight in 4-5 minutes even after using an SE for 1.5 years, and the battery life feels like salvation.

      I love the iphone form factor (iphone 12 pro) too compared to samsung (s21 ultra) because of how either more elongated, too light and unbalanced on the hand due to the larger camera modules( having a case solved this for me) of the s21 ultra(exynos). The lighter phone made me feel the build was cheaper. The screen also felt more responsive while playing games like dead by daylight or Moba games. Maybe I am just too used to iphone like how MKBHD really likes the pixel camera.

    I'm happy to have bought the 12 on sale. It's reasonably good and for the mainstream customer like me, an extra 1.5 hours of battery and image stabilisation isn't worth spending the full retail price for the 13. I suggest others to save money and get the 12 series and then upgrade to the 14 or 15 series if it's not having any bezels and no camera bump with a punch-hole display.

      Maybe if you can save a lot on a sale, but getting the 12 from Apple makes NO sense. 64gb is not enough storage and the 128gb is only $50 less than the 13 with a better processor, cameras, battery and screen, not to mention resale value.

      The battery, cameras, and 120 Hz this year are worth the wait. What I mean is that the price of the phone is expensive in some countries and for some three months, the prices will come down to the real phone price.. I actually cannot buy the 12 Pro Max and leave the 13 Pro Max for what it offers.

    Just upgraded from a 7 to a 13 and the 5 year wait was absolutely worth it. The battery lasts way longer, the larger screen is so much brighter, and while it lacks the 120hz display of the Pro models, I think that this phone’s battery will age better in the long term because the higher refresh rate could potentially degrade batteries

      If there is any kind of discount, for the one from last year, and it seems reasonable to you and friendly on your wallet, do that.

    Nice video. Let’s drop some thoughts on the table though. 1) the availability. I tried very hard to find an iPhone 13 mini here in Cyprus, EU and I failed. I was stuck with an iPhone 8 from 2017, one of my favorite phones ever but the battery was almost nonexistent to this point. Because I didn’t want something bigger than the 8/SE/mini size my two and only available choices was the iPhone SE2 or 12 mini, so I bought the later. 2) the battery life. I have viewed almost every single review of the iPhone 12/13 mini on CZcams and no one has got those iPhones on their right context! Just take a look on all the comments below those reviews and almost all the people who likes the mini iPhones are also very satisfied with the battery. Why? Because mini iPhones aren’t meant to be used the same way as their bigger siblings and people who buy them knows it well. If you like mobile gaming or a pro video recorder or an editing machine you must go for a pro max, not the mini. In my not that light usage, (day long Apple Music or podcast, constantly on 5G, lots of emails and web browsing and social media and shooting a couple of photos or videos) I end the day with 20-30% battery to spare. 3) the price and the longevity. Let’s be honest, iPhones have support for 5-6 years but that doesn’t mean they can last that while. Perfect example my iPhone 8. I bought it in 2017 brand new and I have it today unscratched as my second phone in a perfect condition except… the battery! The battery health (according to battery settings) is 93% (I doubt it though) but it can’t last beyond 2 hours screen on time. Note that I have treated it well as much as I can, charged it between 40-85% without fast charging… but no. In my experience, you can’t hold to an iPhone for more than 4 years, so even an iPhone 12 is very nice option given the price.

    Went from an SE2 to a 12 mini. ATT was selling them for half off with no trade in required. If it was Apple prices ($599 vs $699) then the extra for the 13 mini would make sense. But this is $300 vs $699 and the 13 mini is not worth $400 more than the 12 mini.
    And an aside. People talk about the mini’s small screen and bad battery life, but coming from the SE2 this screen seems ridiculously big and the battery life has been great by comparison.

    • @UltimatePokeGamer7
      @UltimatePokeGamer7 Před 2 lety +1

      I suggest you save money and get the 12 mini. If the extra hour of battery life and a slightly better camera means much, get the 13 mini but it's better to get the 12 mini on sale and hold on to it for a better upgrade down the line. The 13 series isn't a much larger upgrade to the 12 series other than pro motion on the pro models and image stabilisation with cinema mode on the 13 regulars. I bought the 12 on sale for half-the-price in the country I'm in and recommend the same.

      If your lookin at costs.
      13 mini base model 128GB is perfect .
      Which would total to around £1350
      Or another cheaper option is iPhone 11 for both of them. . Both together you can get for under a 1000 brand new.
      It’s got decent battery life . Good functional sleek service. Everything a teen wants and needs .
      I’m not going to lie .
      Anything phone after SE isn’t an upgrade but a phsicological upgrade . as they all do give same functional required benefit. when your used to the phone . You stop losing interest in if it’s 4K or pro motion.
      The battery life is the main notable difference as the new generation do have crazy long battery

    Here in germany, you can get it from a reputable refurbisher for 350€-410€ with 12 month warranty.
    Apple wants 480-530€ for the SE even. The X is going to be such a better experience then that.

      13 Mini and 12 are two different sizes of phones, you need to decide which size you like more, 13 Mini has a better battery life, better cameras (including cinematic mode 😁), smaller notch, double the storage for the same price, faster chip etc. But if you don't need or particularly care about all those features... then you might want to go with the 12. But personally I wouldn't even think twice, I'd 100% go for the 13 Mini because it gives you a lot of extra features, not to mention one extra year of software support. Yes, it'd be smaller but that's okay to me,
