Apple has revealed another iteration of its latest iPhone 12 smartphone. The new iPhone 12 mini is getting warm welcomes for its ‘mini’ features. Of course, the hardware on this iPhone is up to date while the design displays a premium look.
We have reviewed its design, display, and other features to evaluate the overall performance. Here is what we think about the latest iPhone 12.
Apple iPhone 12 mini: Design review
Apple has given a nod to its older smartphones, especially the iPhone 4 with this design. It truly follows the name ‘mini’ with a small body design which people with small hands will love. But this does not mean Apple has compromised over specs or performance.
Its 5.4-inch screen delivers crispy visuals while a faster refresh rate is ideal for gaming. It is protected with the Ceramic Shield glass which we really appreciate as smaller phones are more prone to drops. The iPhone 12 mini weighs only 135g which makes it the lightest model by Apple.
Apple iPhone 12 mini Review: Hardware
Apple is offering the iPhone 12 mini with 4GB RAM and three different storage options. You can select 64GB, 128GB, or 256GB ROM which runs on iOS 14.1 and is upgradable to iOS 14.2. There is no audio jack or Radio option or a card slot.
The battery on Apple iPhone 12 mini is the main drawback of this smartphone. This is where the small size of the phone has hit the specification, affecting the battery size. In our iPhone 12 mini review, we were able to extract more than 7 hours of battery life with heavy usage.
Apple iPhone 12 mini Camera
The camera on the mini model is the same as of Apple iPhone 12. Both front and rear sides feature 12MP camera, the one on the back is an ultrawide lens. These are excellent lenses that can record 4K videos with 60fps and are equipped with the Night mode feature.
Apple iPhone 12 mini Review: Verdict
For Apple lovers on a budget, the iPhone 12 mini is the real deal. It offers the real value for money and provides a marvellous camera with superb specs inside a lavish chassis.
