iPhone 12 mini: Mini problems… (2022) 

Stellar Video Man🔥

For all young geeks in the comments section complaining about this phone and it’s battery life . Put your devices away . Start talking to some girls , go to the gym , get some real life friends…if you spend more than 2h online daily playing with your phone you are not living right.

I just wanted my SE 2016 to get an upgraded camera and chip but my 12 Mini is fantastic. People who keep complaining about battery life spend too much time on their phone.

Using this phone with the magsafe battery pack and I’m extremely satisfied with the battery backup. Since the mini is no longer in the 14 lineup I’ll stick with it for as long as possible.

Honestly, this is the iPhone that I want. My first iPhone was the 5s I’ve hold on to that from 2016-2022 when the mini was launch I was so excited to buy one and fair enough I did. Battery life is on the short side but one thing that my ownership with my 5s thought me is to always bring an external battery pack or powerbank w/ charger cable. I loved that 5s now that I own a 12 mini I really wanna make the best out of it.

When I owned a 5.5” display phone, I wondered whether bigger display is better. So I bought a flagship phone with 6.67” display but then it becomes a must to hold it with two hand. So, I look for a used IP12 Mini and then I found out the price in the used market dropped drastically, so then I purchased it. I have come to terms that phones cannot be too large on our hands or it will lose the ergonomic value and I specifically bought this phone because iOS doesn’t suck up as much juice as Android and like you said, this phone also easily gets me through the day in a single charge.

I just upgraded to 12 mini128 from my iphone 5s which was gifted by my father in 15 th b day in 2015. And i'm really happy with the same compact form factor where most of the smartphones r getting humungous daybyday. Actually i wanted a 13 mini but didn't permit my budget 😊

I think you are the only person who is describing about the battery life very well! Big youtubers like geekyranjith and mkbhd they never discussed about batteries much....but good bro I like the way you said( how I got this battery life)

My iPhone 12 mini holds up fairly well in the battery department. My current BH is 86 % (after 19 months of usage). The degradation has seemed to slow down (at least according to the reader. The big battery suckers from this phone are: High speaker volume, high screen brightness outdoors, navigation (Google maps), Camera app (with drainage rates as fast as 1-2 percent a minute). Keep this in mind as the battery ages. The A14 can reserve tons of power, but applications that require a lot of power can drain the phone (sometimes in 2-3 hrs vs the standard 5-6 hrs)

Honestly, 4-5 hours for battery would be perfect for me. I’m gonna be switching to a 12 mini from a 6s. My 6s will give me maybe 2-3 hours and I’m not exaggerating.

Ay, your cinematography is on a different level 🤯

Your content quality deserves more attention throughout the internet, I believe if you make more videos on other smartphone related enthusiastic things such as wallpapers,themes, essential apps, launchers for Android in short if can have a dedicated smartphone customisation video uploaded regularly, your channel will definitely experience significant growth.

I think the 13 mini is much better when it comes to battery life and longevity

Just switched from the 12 mini to the 14 pro. As much as I loved the size of the 12 mini, the battery basically made it unusable after only 1,5 years of use

12 mini purple is my dream phone and i got it last christmas🎉😂😅 Thanks G.

Alot of those who complained about batt degradation in 12 mini was mostly charged by fast charger and wireless charging. I think slow charger can solve that issue.

@ spixel your vid is why I got the 12 mini last year. Now I got the 13 mini. Good video I enjoyed it and remembered yoj

Changed to 12 mini just yesterday from an 11 it's definitely snappier...also the camera is definitely an upgrade the 0.5 on 11 was so bad I barely use it. If your hands hurt with big phones this is perfect. But the battery is really so-so

I like that my iPhone 12 mini is still a good phone and works. The only criticism I have for it is the battery life and health rapidly decreasing. I am currently at 86% maximum capacity after 15 months which is not the worst, but not the best. Screen time is still fairly good but you can kill it 3 times a day if it is used heavily. Apps to consider this with are mostly camera and gaming applications. Also keep in mind how you charge your phone and how you use it. It may affect your battery capacity

To me its battery life is no worse than my previous 11, so I'm satisfied

Ok. Not gonna lie. The battery isn’t the best. But, it’s by far the nicest phone I ever had. I was a die hard Android user (Google Pixel) and suddenly I woke up and decided to try an iPhone. It feels so smooth, so durable and made to last. I love that! I even don’t use a case because the materials don’t really scratch that fast. I’m truly disappointed that the 14 doesn’t have any mini version lined up.

I think you should test the battery life in Wi-Fi and cellular respectively. Because browsing social through cellular network use more electricity

Awesome video!, I love the style of your videos, and the fantastic editing. Keep up the good work!

What a quality review and video! You have a naturalness in how you present. Big ups dude, I’m definitely subscribing 🙌🏾

Nah guys 12 mini’s battery backup ain’t that bad.. i mean i am on 88 and it lasted more than 5 hours still had 20 % left..!

Awesome video ,I feeling the iPhone 12 Mini is the best compact phone since prices will drop, and good for those who do not want to maybe go in for an iPhone SE device

There is something just so nice, pleasant and soothing this review is. Fantastic video.

Slap on a MagSafe battery pack and you’re good to go. Although, could be considered a hassle but to fit everything into that form factor, you have to sacrifice on the battery. Awesome video! Link to your iPhone case?

I i'm rocking an iphone se2 and i'm looking into upgrading to the 12 mini so this video was quite helful, thanks man!

Great video! Where I can find the case that your iPhone have in the video? I love it.

My work phone is a 12 mini. I really like it. If I were a real stickler for the form factor I would get another mini for my personal. It reminds me of the smaller iPhones like the 5 and 2016 SE, before apple was pressured to make it all bigger. The only issue I have now is as I get older my thumbs get fatter, so I have to be very precise when typing. I try my best not to use autocorrect. English grammar is hard enough, even as a native speaker, can’t lose that skill!

Nice video! Does this iphone 12 mini have better battery life than your iphone xs?

One thing I’m curious about is how is the call quality on the 12 mini? On a regular 12 I had last year it was so horrible and full of static i had to get rid of it. The obvious trade off is battery life but that’s to be expected with a smaller phone.

Great explanation bro....love your cinematics

Never thought my 11 Pro battery life was anything special. Mini can’t be much worse, I’m sold. Still digging the Midnight color?? Thinking the new green or possibly blue, between the 3.

This channel is a banger Thank you for the work

U're doing such a great job..esp at such young age...keep growing 🤠💗

5G is the biggest battery killer for the 12 mini. The 5G auto setting does not help either as it primary uses 5G compared to LTE. I just set it to LTE for normal use unless I am uploading or downloading something.

you just got a sub from me. I loved your video and this is my first time seeing your channel.

Elder please bring the comparison between I phone 11 vs 12mini ; deep request

love the improvements!

I just want to point out something about this phone when going outside, please bring a powerbank. If you looking to spend the rest of your day outside hanging out (which I do, a lot). It bound to die without any charging. There also the problem with the phone getting really hot but I think it just my environment

Battery life is a killer for 12 mini. Small screen is also a compromise that didn’t work for me.

So Im looking for a second hand cheap iphone that feels modern and will live for some years... was considering this one, but the battery stuff sounds depressing.... What phone should I be picking up instead? thnx

The new lens goes crazyy

Been running on a iPhone SE 2016 for about 2 to 3 years now, moving 'back' to it from an iPhone 8 Plus, I just had it replaced by T-mobile. I love the size, but I understand that it will slowly be phased out, no more updates and I have noticed some sluggish network issues. So moving to the 12 mini over the older first gen SE would be good for me, as far as battery, the SE last me all day, but I do carry a battery pack designed for the iPhone. I think I will make the move to the 12 mini based on price, if I can find a 13 mini, better, definitely not moving to the 14, don't like the new SIM design.

Another iPhone 12 mini fan here. Great content. Subscribed

I am using a galaxy A52s 5G should I change to iPhone 12 mini

FINALLY a techer that ACTUALLY explained how the batter life works.. instead of those dumb MODERATE usage or DEPENDS on this or that ... i personally use twitter insta, some cam some msgs and some music but just on walks .. no videos no gaming .. so with that in mind, if i could do a 5 sot that would be awesome! cause i have a sot ,the digital wellbeing says it anyway , that i have sot /day from 3-3.1/2 h ,so if i could manage 5h sot thats great, any1 oppinions on that?

Bro Your Voice is so clear! Gears?

Just traded my iPhone 12 mini to 13 mini because the battery life is horrendous after 2 years. My battery health was at 80 % after 2 years

How is the multimedia content consumption? Watching Netflix and RU-vid? How does it performance in this regard? After 2 days or 3 days of buying it?

My iPhone 12 mini is getting better 5G speeds than my Samsung S21! Which is a huge surprise. 💯🤯

This guys is so good. Very interesting 🙌

I would say 5.8 screen size is perfect

I can see the inspiration from MKBHD but in a good way. The quality of your content deserves at least a million subs 👍❤️

The video is really good ✌🏻

Rules for using the minis: No heavy gaming No big hands No people with poor vision No people who enjoy speaker listening Other than that… get the 13 mini just trust me trust me!! The screen is brighter, speaker is better, and the battery will truly last longer and that can’t be stressed enough. The battery on the 12 mini is a joke I’m warning you lol. Trust me please go directly to 13 mini.

Great video, how much does it cost tho?

is it good to buy a used iPhone 12 mini with 92% BH for $410 in India, as I live in India

A small correction has to be done between sir Iphone se 3 holds a size of 4.7” Whereas 12 mini extends till 5.4” So do not confuse people with that Thank you

The goat! 🫡

SE 2022 vs 12 mini - what would be your take? Thanks

I don't know which model buy, the iPhone 12 mini or the 13 mini. Does really exist a big differences between this two?

Your intro looks professional

There’s not a lot of difference in battery life between the iPhone 12 and 13 mini…

You could buy the 13 mini

watching this on the iphone 12 mini

This is like mkbhd level quality here keep it up

Wait for the 6.7 inch iPhone 14 model instead of the 5.4 inch iPhone 12 model

It is not dust resistant. It is snot smudge resistant.

Nice content 👍, BTW what's your name brother 😄

Feels honest

Solid content 🔥on point

Mine the speakers are muffled sounding compared to when I first got it. They are clean as well idk how to fix it

Did you know the iphone 12 mini screen is only 12.5% smaller than the regular iphone 12 screen but it looks alot more smaller than what it is? but it isnt....

I like your way of presentation.

I noticed something that it's getting heated up while normal calling for about 10min and also random use for about 15min is it common for all 12 minis or else?

I'm using 12mini. The biggest issue I'm facing is with the battery. After 13 months my battery health is 85%. I use it every day with 3-4hours of Netflix. planning to buy a new model because of the battery issue.

I just bought it and ive noticed that it is constantly warm. And when i charged it for the first time it was kinda overheating? Is this normal for a new phone?

That was helpful!!

underrated channel ;)

Your review is better than MKBHD 👍

Dude looks like Nik Dodani from Atypical

I’m watching this on a mini 😅

I want 2/3 x zoom portrait lens we never needed wide angle coz we have panorama mode to get wider pics

Hey bro, mine 12 mini’s earpiece is louder than the main speaker when i hear songs and others . How to fix? Regards ❤️

9:02 Relatable!

Great vid

the icons on the top right is a little to cramped

could you please somehow show the size difference between mini and x?

ned stark once said... everything a man said before the word "but" is horse sh*t.

the 13 mini is perhaps the greatest phone ever invented.
