The phone itself is great, compact, fast, stable, nice camera. Just what I was looking for. But, Apple guys...come on...the battery is crap! I have it since one year now and from the start I had issues with the battery charging and discharging by it's will (sometimes from 50% to 100% in 5 minutes and back to 40/50% in under 15 minutes, on hold, and using genuine Apple charger and cable). Even with no wi-fi or mobile data activated the battery is visible draining just doing nothing at all. The phone was in a service but it came back with the same behaviour. And this despite the fact that the battery health is still at 100% after one year. So, Apple would better come up with a new and improved battery to be replaced on 12 mini. Otherwise it remains only a great and useless phone and the owners remain with a bad experience and bitter. No surprise it was only 6% from 12 series sales. It was not the small size the main reason but the skepticism of customers related to battery.

I don’t stare at my phone all day but I run Bluetooth a lot in background and when I go to bed my phone is at about 3 hours of screen on time with + 50% of battery left.
I thinks it’s great.
Wanted the SE 2016 to just get chip update and better camera but 12 mini is nice enough.

The worst phone that I have had yet. Very poor reception. Admittedly we live in a dead zone, but worse than any previous phone. May or may not work with wifi calling, seems to depend on its mood. Camera and flashlight don't work and estimate is $500+ to get fixed. Just did a software upgrade 2 days ago, so it's not that. Phone deal was for 2 years, I'm 17 months in and they want $600 for me to buy it out so that I can get something that works.

I have been using this device for 1 year. The battery is really crap. It dropped to 85 points in just 1 year. I have an average of 4 hours of screen time. There is no other problem.

Anonymous, 13 Feb 2022Please which one can i go for between iphone 11 pro max or ... morei'm late in this reply but anyway.
i have since new iphone 11 pro max and iphone 11.
iphone 11 pro max it's a beast, i would never change that other for the latest PRO MAX versions, anything not PRO MAX, it's not even worth talking about.
i'm not even sure to leave the iphone 11 for the iphone 12 mini since the regular 11 has way better battery life and bigger screen.
it's just the Oled display that makes a little difference and the size preference.
i'm getting a little bored with giant phones.
i'm using 2 devices anyway so makes sense to have one small.

LMAO, they are publishing anti-apple articles in daily basis since decades.
stop reading their crap and think from yourself.
apple it's the best reputation big brand ever, for them, reputation matters since 80s.
how can you compare apple with android?
how google makes their money, they just recently started selling devices, and for them the revenue from mobiles means nothing. THEY SELL USERS DATA.
if you don't get this, then use android and life a happy, open source life.
LMAO

Became interested in iPhone 12 mini as thought it was fully featured and smart phones are becoming too large (I'd rather watch shows/movies on TV than on a phone, just short videos!).
Was planning to buy first iPhone as 12mini ProductRed water resistant, smaller (XR work one like a brick!) and lighter - not having the button like the SE and previous iPhones do is a big compromise though as I found with XR, still I thought overall I was intending to buy. The double DEAL KILLER for me was not even having the option of corded earphone/headphone jack as earphone sometimes fall out, and HAVING TO CHARGE AIRPODS as well. Based on current other specs, if it had a home button and earphone jack I'd try it - not for me though. Perhaps when a 14 mini or 14s mini ? (the S models had better phone reception in remote areas, like a Telstra blue tick).
