I honestly can't wait to buy it. I'm so tired of my 6.7" phone.


I'm very tired of my 5.6" phone (Pixel 3A). 5.4" seems a small upgrade, but maybe worth it. I've been on the Android camp for a decade, but I'm getting fed up with these enormous phones. It's ironic that there's a million Android manufacturers and zero good small Android phones, while there is one iPhone manufacturer and they may actually take the small phone market.


Because of aspect ratios and bezels, the 12 Mini is significantly smaller than the 3A. The 12 Mini is smack dab between the size of the iPhone 5 and the iPhone 6, whereas the 3A is roughly the size of a current iphone 11.

Diagonals only tell you so much, unfortunately.


I agree. I think it will sell like hotcakes.

I use an iPod Touch (smaller than the Mini) as my "low-end" test device.

Whenever I'm using it, I feel envious, as my regular phone is an XSMax.


So weird how these things come in cycles.

With the new flat sides and smaller form factor, they basically just rereleased the iPhone 5 (with, I'll admit, a couple of new features)
