this video is brought to you by squarespace the best way to make an amazing website when i first got the iphone 12 mini into my hands i was intrigued it was incredibly small and lightweight hitherto at the same time certainly payment so i was really excited to assessment it out and see if i can finally swap over to a smaller phone unfortunately after 2 month i can’t really recommend this phone for most people and there’s more than a few reasons to waste that little bit more and get the iphone 12 or perhaps hold off wholly and wait for the iphone 13 mini if apple even utters one which we’ll talk about with that said there are so many things that i absolutely love about this telephone and concludes that i want to keep using it but there’s also a few issues that i’ve suffered one of them is just so massive that is just not worth me squandering anymore even though they are i do love the width and load let’s is the beginning with the one thing about the iphone 12 mini and that is the sizing now i knew it was going to be small but you really don’t understand what it’s like unless you get to hold it in your hand and of course if “youve had” perhaps say an iphone 5 or 5s now i’m used to using vast phones but even then i was just tempted to keep using it so if you’re somebody that has an older iphone and you adore the width the iphone 12 mini is actually smaller and lighter than the 4.7 inch iphones includes the brand-new se while at the same time the spectacle is a fair bit larger as well for those of you that are coming from one of those iphone 5s the 12 mini is just slightly larger and heavier but of course its designing now has curved back to the square chassis and it’s actually somewhat thinner as well so if you like how your aged telephones feel you will love this one comfort wise comparing it to the iphone 12 yeah it is definitely more pleasant side by side but most people will get used to that larger size and then they’ll have no issues with it now there’s one huge advantage that the mini has over the other 12 poses in terms of its sizing and that is that it is perfect for apple’s magsafe wallet i’ve well-tried the wallet on all of the new iphone 12 s and by far the best phone for the pouch is the mini now a lot of reviewers tested the billfold and they complained about it that’s because it simply doesn’t work very well on other telephones especially with iphone 12 pro max it incessantly twists and slithers around unable to stay secure on the telephone but with the mini on the other hand the purse contained is a good one since the sides and bottom match up perfectly so never twist off centre is not simply that but it also feels super comfortable to hold with the billfold unlike on the 12 pro max where it feels kind of weird because of the extra chinks on the sides now let’s talk about that really nice full screen display the mini has that 5.4 inches which is a really nice upgrade from the older 4.7 to maybe 4 inch iphones so is not simply are you going a smaller phone compared to the 4.7 but also a more efficient one coming a full screen flaunt that doesn’t weigh infinite with immense bezels now along with that the mini actually has apple’s most detailed display because the display is smaller than the other 12 s its pixels are just more jam-packed together which translates into the mini having 476 ppi while the 12 pro max has 458 and in case you’re puzzled the iphone sc has 326 now considering the small display compared to the other 12 s it’s a common worry that you wouldn’t have as much screen real estate as on the larger phones when you’re watching websites or speaking things like that but honestly that wasn’t an issue for optimized websites “youre seeing” roughly just as much as you can on the 12 pro max everything is just a little bit smaller now before i get into the two issues that i have with the spectacle solely let me give a shout out to the sponsor of this video squarespace if you’ve

you’re ready to launch you will save 10 off your first buy of a website or a domain one issue that i’ve been dealing with is constantly frame typos since the phone screen is so small-scale and my fingers are so large-scale and the other question with the parade being so small is that gaming on this phone is very difficult and kind of annoying it’s a lot harder to see because everything is so small-scale and not only that but my paws take up so much room on that display let’s just say that the iphone 12 is much better for gaming and typing but of course if you’re used to a small phone previously that shouldn’t be an issue now one thing that really surprised me with this phone is its performance in thermals when i really propagandized it it never went hot like the max did on the max after about a half hour of gaming at full aims it would overheat and then the screen would turn down and then would lock into about half brightness to until it cools down but amazingly that never once happened on the mini and that action is thanks to the insanely potent 5 nanometer a14 the cpu and graphics concert is absolutely crazy and it’s the same exact on the mini as on that 12 pro max the only slight change in action is ram with the mini having four gigabytes instead of six but to be honest i didn’t really notice a difference maybe that’s because ios is just a lot more efficient with recent versions or maybe because i just didn’t end up use my iphone 12 as much as i would with the larger ones which could be a good thing for some of you one conclude for that is because the screen is quite small but the other reason are the speakers they are great now i wasn’t expecting them to reverberate as good as the 12 pro max but i didn’t think they would be the same as the iphone se and a bazaar fleck worse than the iphone 12. Not simply does the quality clang worse in general but it’s also quieter the mids are really lacking and the bass is pretty much non-existent have a listen for yourself[ Music] now i know for some of you this won’t matter but the two biggest things that i do on my phone is write messages and emails and then watch youtube videos so since the screen is smaller and the speakers are a lot weaker i just acquired myself exploiting it much less and i would go and grab a laptop or an ipad with that said that’s not what really messed up my experience with it and the battery life didn’t either that was a huge worry for me and many others before well this phone but i was pleasantly surprised based on my real world use with 5g enabled “id expect” the battery going to die by 3 pm but every day resolved up lasting until 5 or even 6 pm and i do push my phones fairly hard the iphone 12 would typically die at six to seven pm it is therefore only lasted about an hour more than this one and likening to my 12 pro max well that thing lasted all day up until 10 or 11 pm so the mini can’t really match up there but that also has a 60 bigger battery and if you’re somebody with an iphone se you’ll get about one to two more hours of screen on time with the mini and the same thing goes with older iphones that have older worn out artilleries it’s gonna be a good betterment for you now to be honest this stirs no divergence for me because if i have to top off during the day it doesn’t matter if it’s an hour earlier or last-minute so if you’re worried about battery life candidly don’t be and the same thing disappears for camera quality thankfully apple didn’t cheap out and even though the 12 mini rate 100 less than the 12 we still have dual rear cameras and the same exact front facing one that also means that the quality is exactly the same as a 12 pro other than not having that zoom camera but candidly an ultron camera is much more useful and for the most part you’re not missing much photo caliber proceeded up dramatically this year with nighttime photos being possible with the front-facing camera which moves shots go from being night or ugly to delightful looking shots and ultrawide photos proceeded from a misty mess to some amazing see personas if you want to see the few details between the camera systems on the 12 mini the 12 12 pro and the high-end 12 -pro max model well did a extremely in-depth camera comparison reveal every single camera difference which you can watch after this video i’ll leave a link down below now i want to finally get into the big deal breaker about this phone that induced me enough frustration that i could no longer deal with it and i need to use one of the larger phones and that is connection rapidity and receipt races got a huge boost this year with the 12 s in comparison with the 11 s thanks to apple utilizing the super fast snapdragon x55 modem with 5g for example outside of my religiou the place where i fought “the worlds largest” with celebration i was only get about 6 mb per second download and 0.3 upload on my 11 pro max now test the velocities on the regular 12 and the 12 pro which have the same exact setup i was only come 38 megabit per second download and two megabit per second upload that is over six hours faster now inside of my religiou i would get no work at all with the 11 pro but i would actually get one to two rails with the iphone 12 s nonetheless with the 12 mini this isn’t the case i get zero service inside the building nothing and that is extremely frustrating and outside it is still a gala part slower than the iphone 12. Now i’m not sure why this is because they’re very similar but i did go back and forth a few times and it certainly was mainly attributable to this phone overall well noticeable in numerou locates across municipality which is a huge deal breaker for me because i need to have service now last year with the iphone 11 there was nothing i could do and i was stuck with what i had but this year knowing that the 12 and 12 pros and then the 12 pro max can give me service in places where i previously didn’t have it there’s just no way that i could stick to using the mini so even though i love the size because of those reasons i have a hard time recommending this unless you perfectly have to have the smallest size and in those cases it actually seems like not many beings actually do you examine parties have been asking for a smaller phone like the iphone 5 for years but none truly guessed or expected apple to listen and deliver when apple updated the se to the gen 2 with the updated a1 3 chip it was a big surprise and parties were happy however not that much deepened other than that microchip and people wanted to get a bigger upgrade i think that apple took a huge risk making this phone and while people were asking questions it not nearly as many beings actually ceased up buying one if you look around at sales the iphone 12 lineup been taken into consideration about 76 percentage of iphones sold during october and november which is better than the levins did last year with the regular 12 s constructing up about 27 so the majority of members of that parcel both the iphone 12 pro and the pro max each sold about percentage however the twelve mini only accounted for six percentage of total sales which was shockingly low-grade to me because it’s the first time the apple is offering such a small phone for all those people that are asking it while keeping the performance and the camera the same as iphone 12 and declining the toll by 100 horses my alone guess is that most people thought that the regular 12 was a better buy even though they are it expenses more and after the last two months i would definitely concur and i actually wonder if apple will ever make an iphone 13 mini or they’re just gonna impede selling this one for several years as they have done with the ses now despite all of that the 12 mini is still a neat phone and i would recommend it if “youve been” need a minuscule one but i think that most people should just go for an iphone 12 instead but you guys go ahead and let me know what you think down below this has been max click that roundabout above to help us reach our goal of 600 k subs before rally which is our two time brand that would be absolutely amazing check out one of those huge videos right over there and i will see you in the next one
