From my experienced from using mini previously, if u just use for normal whatsapp/telegram, light browsing the battery can hold during office hours la..but it also depend bcos i like to charge less..hehe

Rhinoshield probably for me - coz got no branding or logo at the back, hehe...

But which is easier to put the phone in and take it out?

hope that this year will have 13 mini. no matter i am going to buy it or not. haha.

preferf mous for better protection.

as for rhinoshield is relatively easy to take out now for 12 series as the rubber is way softer than previous model. uag plasma is very tight.

i just got my 12 mini, now already talk about 13 mini 😭

only around 3 months plus we can see the announcement of iPhone 13 already. Haha.

I'm late to the boat. last time using 12 pro max very huge and chunky. Not nice in my hand. Been thinking and searching for awhile until few days ago got this mini at great price.

Now I ditch Poco F3 for this Mini as my main driver. Really ios shine when you can use it in one hand.

Dont think like this...else u no need buy phone already

I'm taking interest on the iPhone 12 mini recently. How's the battery life for those who using it now? I consider myself a medium user, just whatsapp, reddit, social media and YouTube. I'm looking for something can last me the whole day with 5-6hrs sot. Would that be possible with the 12 mini?

Definitely. But not for 3D and online gaming unfortunately, drain faster before you know it. I got around 5pm before needed to charge again while casually used like you mention. Can still watch youtube otw home from work.

from my exp 12 mini battery life is not that bad.. better than SE 2020, and roughly the same compared to iphone X

Oh that's great!! And i assume that this is all on data not wifi right?

haha. well better late than never right? been keep eye on mini for long time already but not willing to pay 3k-ish for it as my old iphone se 2016 still running well. as for now I can get 10 unit of iphone se 2016 for an iPhone 12 mini. haha.

you can, but probably you need a powerbank standby by your side all the time. as for my usage unplug at 8am need to charge at 2pm up to 80% (optimized charging turned on). my usage similar to you as I'm not gaming on my mini.

yes, mini is better than se 2020. but for me se 2020 was also a very good already.

1st I think I will purchase Mini as well.. but concern about the battery degradation...end up i go for 12 normal..

12 is always better buy than mini for safe purchase. You got all the best feature at optimum value. Sure no regret.

Apart from TouchID, I find myself hardpressing the keyboard often looking for 3Dtouch...

I know can use the spacebar but its not as intuitive, slower and not so user friendly vs touchpad mode using the whole keyboard.

indeed.

I'm sorry to butt in like this, my Samsung is not doing so well.

I'm in Penang (Bayan Lepas). How do I get a Red 128 Iphone 12, at this FMCO?? I heard there is +1yr warranty through Senq? Is there a better deal out there?

Try checking out switch and machines , they have their own protection plans.

thanks, I end up buying from senheng, as the store staff is able to meet with me tomorrow morning.
