In my 7th decade, I admit I first watched this video on this 8th-gen iPad. Inspired by the above question you put to us, I watched this one again on my iPhone 6S. Watched this one AGAIN on the 13 Mini. I really appreciate the pacing and editing of your videos now that I really looked and saw the care you take in making these. I’m most blown away that I can catch so many details on the 13 Mini that I can’t on the 6S. The iPad is big enough for these old eyes to catch even more, but in a pinch, an Apple iPhone gets the job done, too.
Your review just made me feel good as a i have just bought this a couple of days ago! It’s so compact and convenient, only downside I’d say is the battery and long charging times.
Last year, I went from the iPhone 7 to the XS, while my kids went from the X to the 13 Pro. I'm really not a fan of the weight of their phone. I'll probably stay with XS until Apple stops giving it the latest iOS, at which point I'm seriously considering swapping to a 13 Mini. It'll most likely be 2nd hand, but I really can't see Apple reintroducing a Mini - unless the next SE uses the discontinued size. Thanks for the vid!
@@Vyper71 I love my XS, and made the conscious decision not to get the X or XR - the latter was never an option, due to its lower spec. I had to use an iPhone 6 for a month late last year (don’t ask!), which is when I decided my next iPhone would be the size of the 13 Mini. If you’re looking at iPhones in the X range, I’d definitely consider the XS - or XS Max if the size is better for you.
I wanna gift my parents iPhones. Should I buy them the 12 or 13? I have a relatively low budget. And honestly they don't care about all the crazy new features and stuff.
honestly the 12. If you have a low budget then get them both 12s, depending on the pricing of the phones, the 13 can be a better deal but idk the prices you’re seeing That being said both phones aren’t that much different & are basically the same but the 13 does have better battery life tho either way everything else on the 12 is still reliable & works good. Battery life would be good for them both especially if they don’t care for more gimmicky features
That is so cool of you, you’re the MVP, I gave my dad a XS Max he’s not to crazy for tech and he loved it he was so happy and grateful for it and uses it every day. So any phone you give them I’m sure they will treasure it
@@ronyescobar226 That's so cool of you man I'm glad your dad loves it so much. And yeah my parents always did so much for me and I got my first job recently so I wanted to buy them something with my first income.
The peak brightness is 1200 only with HDR content. Typical max brightness is only around 600, which isn’t that bright. I’m using one now and it can be difficult to see in direct sunlight and overcast days
Excellent video. Got one 2 years ago and still rolling...smooth and fast and, no complain at all so far. Iphones are absolutely amazing phones....been an Adroind user all my life and Iphone user since 5/6 years ago..once you get into IOS eco-system, there´s small chance of going back. Keep the good work! Cheers from Portugal
I'm in need of an upgrade. What do you suggest? Looking for a cheap iPhone not looking to upgrade to an SE or 11 though because my XR is currently 4 years old. Lmk! 🙈
QOTD: What phone are you watching this video on?
iPhone 13 red regular
@@johnnyblaze5551 Nice!
@@BubVisuals 11 pro😅 but in your opinion which is better between the 11 pro or the base 12?

I’ve had the iPhone 12 for 4 months and it runs very smooth. It can game easily and the camera is pretty good compared to the next generation 13.
Are your phone's rear cameras scratched?
No why?

I feel like a lot of other phone companies are using the iPhone 12 design for their phones.
That tends to happen haha

Hello @BobVisuals! I like your phone critic videos, very informative. Wish to have one from you 😊🤞🤞
I have a iPhone12 but the battery life on it isn’t good

Show me so called power users for whom iPhone 12 is not enough. The saying per se is a joke
