Tested 4K video for 10 mins of footage (never transferred yet) 3.

@ThinkPinkAngel 3 года назад

@@jesabel62 it’s ur choice, mine I told you. Normal sets are better in so many ways but these minis got their position cuz they are cheaper. I have both normal and mini, normal have good batteries n no set heat up issues whereas mini have both issues. If mini is in active usage, it got fast battery drainage and heat up issue. iPhone 7 Plus is older phone but performance wise it is beating mini badly. Anyways, it’s my opinion n the experience I shared is for consumer knowledge that for just being cheap do not go for mini.

I’m switching from a 4 and half year old 6. The mini will be like SuperMan compared to my 6. And the mini still fits and works in my hand, arthritis matters. The bigger iPhones are not comfortable. Thank goodness Apple has the full state of the art mini for folks like us.

@asantesamuel13 3 года назад

Actually the battery life is fantastic. Idk how long you used it but I'm guessing only a day or so. After using mine for three days, the battery life got much better and settled out. I'm averaging 10h of On-Screen Time if I were to drain it to 0. It easily gets me through the day! I did turn off background app refresh and 5G as well, and I don't game on it either. So don't let the battery life concern you for anyone concerned about that.

You could always get a battery case from Alpatronix or 0lemon. I'm getting my Alpatronix case tomorrow and it's supposed to double the battery life of my iPhone 12 mini. There are two RU-vid videos on the 0lemon battery case as well. Alpatronix case didn’t work as advertised because it only charged one percent then stopped. It made a strange noise when charging, so after a week I returned it and got a 0Lemon case instead. 0Lemon rocks! It’s been one week and the phone stays charged at 100 percent for hours once the little round button is pressed. I highly recommend the 0Lemon battery case.

@natakankal4688 3 года назад

An amazing phone. As am very lite user, since day before yesterday on the first buy I didn’t charge it yet and still going good now it’s 10% from 70% (battery % came with new phone).

Plus huge battery tip Enable sleep mode as this disables all the notifications which constantly looks and fetches the info (literally for from 9:30 PM to 5:30 AM - Mini was only using lesser than 5% through the night), I was literally amazed by the A14 effectiveness in low battery consumption. 1.

I absolutely love the Mini, but in the end I opted for the Pro. Everything about the Mini is perfect for my tastes: I'm not a big video-watcher or gamer on my phone, but I do care about performance and the quality of the screen. The deal-breaker for me was the camera setup. Although I'm not a "pro," whatever that means, I use the telephoto lens all the time. In fact, I wish Apple had an even longer telephoto in the mix. And I love the lidar sensor on my 12 Pro. It's really just a toy for me, but I love it. I do walkthroughs of favorite places, I toy around with 3D graphics, and I like seeing the amazing stuff it can do. I'm thinking of picking up a Mini to use as my main phone, with the Pro kept as a backup phone for when I need the better camera array. If Apple discontinues the Mini, I'll definitely rush out and get one before they sell out.

I'm a normal user of iPhone 12 Mini and I'm having no problem coming out through the day with one battery charging (emails, navigation, social media, music apps...). If you're getting out of battery any sooner, than the phone is either not appropriate for your work, or maybe you are just too addicted to phone, apps, internet and you should do sth about that.

That’s a genius idea. I hope someone is working on it!

i´m a lite user and have no problem at all getting through the whole day but if you are a heavy user you should propably go for the Max.

Not sure why you only have 42k subs. You have a very good channel. Keep it up

Well if you’re an adult who works between 5-8 hours a day, this phone is great. Because I work, I barely use my phone for a majority of the day. I do videography and I do watch RU-vid pretty heavy and I have yet to have an issue with the battery!

What a shame really... I was so gonna get a blue iPhone 12 Mini because I do like the idea of such a compact phone. When the battery comparisons came out I made up my mind since I’m more of a heavy user. So I ended up getting a 12 Pro Max, which is weird knowing how much bigger it is. But the battery life was so important to me and an even better camera on top made me help decide which phone to get.

Just got the 12 mini the other day. Upgrading from an 11. The battery life isn’t as good but I’m home slot so no biggy

@christiancarter7563 3 года назад

@Auborn last time I checked it was 93% and I use mostly fast charging.

@christiancarter7563 3 года назад

@Auborn I just checked mine and it’s at 91% it will last longer is you use a shower charger or wirelessly charge. Some people have managed to keep there’s at 95% or higher.

They should make a battery puck that looks like the apple logo.

@harryc1039 3 года назад

People will spend £699+ on an iPhone with a whack battery!! And then spend more money on battery packs to carry around with it, apple own you! And this is coming from an apple owner, I’m just not paying for a new phone with downgraded batteries

SOLVED: There are many MagSafe powerbanks now, the perfect solution. Altough most don’t complain about the battery on the Mini. Even if you have to give it some extra charge in the middle of the day, it’s not a big deal. The pro’s far outweigh the “cons”

@jagpilotohio 3 года назад

I’ve had the mini for 3 weeks and never ended the day below 25% charge. I have no battery issue at all. I’m coming from a 2016 SE so comparatively the mini is worlds better. I don’t know what these people are doing to run out of juice so easily.

@nirgosalia 3 года назад

iPhone 12 mini for sure..... wireless Battery banks available and can solve the purpose, also now-a- days cars are coming with wireless charging pads so no need to worry too much about the battery ... Enjoy the size

@felicityb4949 11 месяцев назад

I really liked this phone I prefer smaller size I haven’t even had a case on it only used liquid screen protector (covered both sides of phone just in case idk if it did anything but do know not a mark on the phone) major issue for me is it gets way too hot to the point I’ve burnt myself will never leave it on charge w/o being around on standby or allow my children to grab it for me. Unfortunately it’s 2023 & I’m going to lose updates/iOS support around 2025. I use beta updates have to always uninstall almost everything on phone it only has 64GB storage internal & I use cloud but it’s inconvenient remove almost everything. If you don’t use it much this is the perfect phone I legit said I don’t use it other than emergency calls & I had no clue how much I really use it lol.

@jayfitvlogs3729 3 года назад

Watching this video on my iPhone 12 mini and lemme tell you it’s a dope phone. Yes battery is the issue but it gives 5hours of screen time that’s enough to last a day. It’s mini power bomb 💣

@williamnale7835 3 года назад

I just picked up 2 MagSafe chargers for my Mini. From what I’m reading, I can safely leave them on the charger overnight without battery degradation due to the intelligence in the phone & charger. Is this true? Thanks

@Shithappenswhenu 3 года назад

I moved from iPhone 8 to the iPhone 12 mini and it is amazing and so is battery life.

@HeartOFPageant 3 года назад

I am okay with the mini. Small battery that charges full fast! Downside is it doesn’t lasts a day for a heavy user.

@clarenceloieprima6747 3 года назад

you keep saying that the battery life is not great but i literally watched a battery test video of the 12 mini beating the 11 in terms of battery life. maybe test the devices first before jumping into conclusions?

@johnlittle8267 3 года назад

if you charge the battery during the day , it will last longer lol - Sorry I think that is pretty obvious to your viewers. To me the best option is a $20 portable battery to take with you - that solves everything and you don't need to deal with the bulky case - just charge for a bit and take it off.

@TheBostonTom 3 года назад

This is the only iphone 12 that feels right in the head. There others are just not comfortable at all

@lego_minifig 3 года назад

I traded in my trusty iPhone 6s for a mini. The phone is so holdable (especially considering I was using a bulky battery case on my 6s). Love the phone, just waiting for the jailbreak to drop. Sitting on ios 14.1 until then.

@joanneazeez9938 2 года назад

I have this phone in purple and I think the battery is fine had the phone for a week now I have gone from I phone 7 plus and an XR I got the mini because I prefer smaller phones thanks for sharing X
