Very good comparison. Purchased the mini and can’t be happier. Battery life is fine if you’re not doing games or extensive videos. Glad apple finally made a phone for small hands and didn’t compromise on features
I think most people would like something compact unless they game or watch stuff a lot, it's just that companies need to somehow fix the abysmal battery life that comes with the form factor.
I'm definitely going to iphone12 mini!!! Honestly, I watched the entire video and didn't notice much of a difference. Iphone 12 mini is super handy. I've been using iphone 7plus from 4 years and I just want to use a smaller phone now..thanks a ton!

@@anujgandhi6049 No problem in typing. Yes you feel screen update as 6s was too small. Only be careful in selecting colors because some colors show fingerprint too much. I choose Red and I think I choose the best color which hides the fingerprints and color looks cool too.

@@samirsingh7579 I saw some gaming review for mini and it not that great in battery life, it will drain quickly. I also play games so planning for the iPhone 12. So be careful before making decision on iPhone 12 mini.
I would go with the mini. It would feel lighter in my pocket. I am a casual user, so battery should last a day. Agree with you. There should be smaller and powerful Androids. I hate big phones but since there was no other choice, I am currently using Redmi Go. Will buy the mini soon.
I've been using 15k budget phones my whole life , first time I'm considering buying an iPhone , the boxy design and snappy software just makes me wanna go for it. Wish me luck
@@29subhra Not that difficult. I shifted from Android to iOS few days ago. There are minor difficulties you might face in the beginning. It depends on how much you are depended on other products provided by different companies. Apple works best with their own accessories. My Samsung watch is working really well on my Iphone 13 though. There are many amazing things on Iphone too. I cannot comment on its performance now. Because any flagship device will perform flawlessly when they are new. You can only judge the performance of a flagship phone after a year. I have to wait and see what's gonna happen with my Iphone.
Ranjit bhai , lots of love from Hyderabad. I've been using an iphone 6 16gb from the past 3 years and a few moments earlier i told my relatives to bring me an iphone 12 mini from USA , but i had a lot of doubts about how will it work and all, but by watching this review i blindly confirmed them to bring it as iam not a big fan of big phones.Your channel is the one stop destination for best gadget reviews.Thanks for clearing my doubts at the right time as buying an iphone is no joke, it requires a lot of effort financially.
I remember my first phone being the iphone 5 and I LOVED the size but hated that it was outdated and would heat up fast, now I can finally relive that experience with a much better phone :D
I am using the iPhone 12 Mini and this is my first iPhone. I must admit I am loving it. The size is perfect, the battery lasts me the whole day and I give it to charge at night with 10 - 15% battery left. The camera is awesome, speaker is good, display is awesome. Overall it's a brilliant device. My quest for a good phone I think ends here. I compared it with the 12 while buying and found that the mini has something special in its form factor while the 12 seemed a little boring to me. Moreover the boxy design makes it a little hard to use the bigger devices.
Guys can anyone know what flipkart do with a scratched iphone that have replaced by the buyer.Does the seller repack the phone and sell it to another buyer???
12 Mini will usher a new era in smartphone sizes. People will start to realise the importance of one-hand usability and start appreciating it more & more. Which one do you prefer among the two?
iPhone 12 mini for sure, after such a long time there's a compact phone with powerful processor and cameras, I don't understand why there are so less option for compact phones , currently we can only see pixel and samsung S series that are compact, would love to see other brands too bring up such an option in midrange phones as well. As these are premium phones.
I’d choose iPhone12 mini any day. I am still using the original iPhone SE (2016 model) due to the small form-factor. Was waiting for a long time for this. But, unfortunately the 5G performance & battery drains concerns me since 5G modem is not in the A14 - SOC & is a separate chip. Once 5G is perfected to be included in the SOC itself, I feel the 5G battery performance would be better. I was hoping the made in India iPhone 12 mini would be 4G only. But thats not the case since they never are going to develop mini in India I guess. Anyways those are my thoughts. Now I’ll have to wait now for a stable 5G device in this form factor by Apple. Till then lets hope my iPhone SE 2016 continues and doesn’t die.

Hello Ranjeet ...I am using iPhone XR for last 2 years And it’s pretty heavy for day to day usage .. so is iPhone 12 mini best option if I want handy phone ?

Hi Ranjit, I have been one of Ur subscribers from 2015, ur first video that I saw was the unboxing of Samsung galaxy S4 and then the next year right after Ur overview I just went over and bought the Samsung galaxy S5 and I still have it❤️. Back then u had almost 600k subscriber's but now u have grown almost 5 times, so happy to see that and to be a part of that 👍🏻. Have to appreciate your unbiased reviews unlike few others 😂 keep up the good work ❤️
I would choose the regular iphone 12. It is just the right size for me Just noticed that the top-down shot camera needs its white balance 2 clicks more towards the green side, or there is something wrong with the exposure of it.
Ranjith has such a hard time reaching the top of the screen on the 6.1" screen 😂 There's an accessibility feature where top half of the screen comes down by a simple gesture on iPhones! And this has been available from iPhone 6 🤭 (double tapping on the home button in the older phones)
