Well people aren't upgrading for 5g, it's more like for bigger battery, bigger screen 6.1" vs 5.8", better spec, smaller notch and better camera.

The thing is IPhone 12 is only 500 cheaper might as well just get the latest.

I'm upgrading for bigger space, since I've finally hit 90% of storage usage. (upgraded from 64GB when it hit 90% as well)
And timing is perfect because battery life improved on 13 mini to almost on par as 11. Smaller notch means screen looks bigger on mini

Didn't really even consider 5G as a reason.

Why not the Pro? I want a mini. Why a mini? Everybody say mini is small. Actually the mini has a 5.4" screen. iPhone 8 Plus back then only had 5.5" screen! I want it for ergonomics. And apart from the screen size and battery life, it performs just as well as the 13, with the same camera. It is mighty in a tiny package. And rumor has it the mini won't make it past this year.
