Missed opportunity.. I thought the 12 would be priced the same as the 11 and the 12 mini would be cheaper, but the 12 Mini is same price as the 11 previously and the 12 costs slightly more. Oh well....

it will all boils down to battery differences for me. cant wait to see how big of the differences between 12 mini vs 12.

Ok well, that's a big point here that EarPods and adapter is not included!!! Means that we have to purchase another 200+ for an adapter which we can't use the old one cause it's type C-lightning. Good job apple im gonna throw up

i think the 12 pricing bit higher due to use of OLED vs LCD
Pro / Pro Max slightly cheaper by RM200 could be remove charge/earpod
the 128GB remain same price since is double capacity

my 2 cents biggrin.gif

Hey all, quick 3 questions for iPhone 12 mini which I’m interested in getting:

1) I can accept not having earpods but there’s no adapter at all! How do I charge my phone with that cable (USB-C) given? Can I use back the norma cable & adapter of my iphone 7? If not, which apple adapter should we buy that will specifically suit the iPhone 12 mini and its included cable?

2) Is the trade-in program only available for US? When I tried using the US site there’s an option to trade in iPhone 7 for $100, but such option not shown in Apple MY.


3) Is 128gb or 256gb better for this model? I had an extremely bad storage experience with my 32gb iPhone 7. I’m assuming a cam & iOS with higher specs/greater ver will eat up much more spaces. Is 256gb worth it?


Thanks in advance!

this year iphone 12/12 mini has OLED already. so display is no longer a selling point for pro. so they need to make the gap closer for people to go for pro. haha.

1) can charge but the cable comes with iphone 12 support fast charge PD, provided you have PD charger adapter which no longer include (last year iphone 11 include charger adapter is not support fast charge, just normal 5V1A brick laugh.gif)

2) never have such option for Malaysia

3) is up to you if 128GB (3-4x 32GB), depends on you take a lot of photo/video or not

no. u need to buy a usb-c charger with usb-c connector to use the cable given.

bolehland has none.

certainly 256gb, forget about 128gb even. the camera for iphones are much better now. more storage will be required. dun cheap out on storage.

always remember = "poor man always buy twice".

To me, it's not that big a deal coz I've not used the original accessories that comes with every iPhone I've owned since the iPhone 5 as I've always used my iPad charger. When I sell off my iPhones, the accessories are almost always unused (except maybe the cable which I might use during emergency).

1) Yes, you can charge it with your iPhone 7 charger and cable, just that it'll take much longer.

2) Our local retailers do have their own trade in program but bear in mind they are just authorized resellers, so their offer won't be as good as what is offered by Apple themselves.

3) Depending on how long you intend to keep the phone. if it's 3 years or more, I'd say go for the 256GB. Alternatively, you could subscribe to a larger iCloud storage option and get the 128GB one, which is what I plan to do.
