In my opinion, Apple made a huge mistake by discontinuing the mini lineup. I feel like so many people are discovering how amazing the 13 mini is after the 14 pro and pro max. I've seen so many tech KZbinrs switching from the 14 pro series down to the mini. Mainly because you get a mini powerhouse that isn't a huge brick. For me 5.4 inches is the right balance of not too big and not too small. If only Apple had given the mini series a few more years, they would have seen a huge increase in sales. More and more are "downgrading" to the 13 mini and very happy with it.

5.4inches for a screen is not too small, but it doesn't have bezels, so quite small for a phone

Exactly!! Seeing how the plus is a failure, that shows just because you have a big screen doesn’t mean people are going to want it. If they made a pro mini, a mini with like the 14 pro or 15 pro internals they would sell like crazy.

I’ve been using it for about 1.5 years now. Got it for €450 with 10 months warranty left. I love it because it makes me use my phone less which is huge in today’s world of social media addiction. I also have the MagSafe battery pack so battery life isn’t a problem when I use it more (usually when I travel). The only big con is two-hand typing which is pretty terrible on this small screen. But on the bright side, it’s the best phone for one-hand typing. So there’s give and take.

I upgraded to the 13 mini when they released it in green, & I absolutely love it. It’s a major leap forward from my old 8, & the screen is plenty large enough. Any larger phone would be way too bulky for my pockets. I’ve only been a little disappointed with the drop in battery capacity (88% within 16 months). Overall, it’s by far my favorite iPhone. (previous owner of 4, 5S, & 8)

It's still a great phone and still performs well, the battery lets it down slightly 2 years later but fast charging helps see it through to the end of the day. Unless apple brings out another mini i will be keeping this until software/security support ends. I see no reason to change

Well I would argue there are also people willing to pay more for the mini because they’re looking at the smaller form factor differently. It’s the phone’s primary value proposition because it has all the same hardware as the regular 13 except for a smaller battery primarily. They’re not looking at it like I’m getting less phone physically for my money. They’re looking at it like I want a capable flagship phone but smaller. Like another commenter said, there’s essentially no competition for the mini if you’re just looking at Apple so it comes down to how much all that is worth to you.

I recently purchased this phone just a few days back, and it's in pristine condition, all for less than $500. You were spot on about the price; it's precisely why I held off buying it earlier when it was on store shelves. Paying nearly $800 for a 256GB model wasn't as appealing compared to snagging the SE for $429. I'm pleased I waited because I'll end up saving a few hundred dollars. Plus, when I sell my top-notch SE in excellent condition (originally paid $200 due to a promotion), I'll likely get a couple hundred bucks back.

I've used the iphone 13 mini for 2 years, i'll give you an honest personal review after I switched: The size is amazing if you have 4h screen on time daily on average. For users that spend more time on their phones it will be annoying. There were times where the size slightly annoyed me (especially when playing games or trying to watch something). But for casual use like messages/tiktok/pictures/social media now and then it was great. It's so light in your pocket I often panicked thinking I lost my phone because I couldn't feel it in my pocket. The specs are mostly amazing, you get a flagship phone in a small size. Great camera (horrible camera zoom tho, x5 is just not enough, it's one of the 2 biggest reasons why I switched to samsung), amazing display besides the fact that its only 60hz (wont be a bother if youre not used to 120hz+ phones). There's not much you cannot do with this phone, youre not limited as its still a flagship and you wont feel like you got a cheaper phone. The 2 biggest cons that made me switch: camera and battery life. I'm more of a light user, the first year it was alright, it got me through the day no problem. Even before I switched its not like it run out of battery before getting home, but it just stresses me out to use my phone when its below 20%. You get around 4-5h of screen time with some normal use (social media+camera+30 minutes of games), or 5-6h if you're more careful. It is barely enough for someone like me, but it's a bit stressful. I switched to samsung s23 and the battery legit lasts me 2-3 days. I usually charge it to 100% and have around 40-60% left the second day, and it's not even a phone thats known for its battery life. The second con is the camera, which isn't a mini problem but more of an iphone problem. The camera for x1 pics is amazing, but other than that it's lacking. It's important to have a decent zoom as a student, taking pics of courses. Even when I sat in the first row during a lecture once, it still struggled to take pictures of the projected course, and god forbid you sit a bit further away. The S23 has x3 optical zoom and x30 zoom, I can sit in the very back of the lecture class and have no problem taking a picture. So if you HONESTLY believe you wont need a good camera zoom, and don't mind carrying a battery pack with you (or only use your phone like 3h a day) then it's amazing. I loved the size, even if unconvenient at times, the pros of the size far outgrow the cons (better ergonomics, better portability, lighter, every pocket can hold it). It's just being hold back by casual apple problem and a small battery (which there's not much to do about considering the size of the phone). I wouldn't have switched if the camera had at least x10 zoom, but I don't regret switching, android has its pros too and samsung has never disappointed me before and nor does it now.

Absolutely love this phone, by far my favorite iphone ever. I wouldn't even consider any of the larger phones since having this one, the SE is absolute garbage. I am so disappointed they stopped selling the mini, I was really hoping they'd eventually drop in price so I could buy a second just to have as a backup. The colors were also great, I love mine in midnight, but I like the green just as much. The white, blue and product(red) versions weren't bad either. I fear the day mine breaks and I am forced to get another oversized iphone. I do understand what people are saying with the short battery life, but personally it doesn't bother me or affect me too much. Only time I ever get to having a low battery is when im spending too much time on my phone anyways. I don't mind throwing it on low power mode which will then last me the rest of the day every time. If I were to use a magsafe external charger I would never run into any battery problems, but like i mentioned its such a non-problem I haven't ever bothered. I find the oversized phones to be way more of a dealbreaker or problem than the battery. It's something you have to contend with every single time you use your phone or put (jam) it into your pocket, whereas i rarely run into battery issues the way I use my phone

Yes, I do have to charge it during the day, sometimes even twice during the day, but coming from a 2020 SE, the battery life is so much better. I used to charge that phone over 10 times a day without even using instagram at all. And before that, I had a 5s (till mid 2020), and i was rocking videos and games on that phone

The 13 mini is awesome. Small compact & powerful little machine. I like the size because I usually have it in my pocket when I play basketball or any other type of exercise as I like to listen to music while I do. You don’t even realize it’s there and that’s one of the best features about this phone. I was thinking about upgrading to the 15 pro as I am a sucker for that clean titanium look, but hearing about the overheating issues, I may just keep this for awhile longer as it’s working great. My only complaint is the battery health is now at 87% capacity with about 2 years of use. Not sure Apple will ever figure that one out. I highly recommend the 13 mini and not sure Apple will ever bring back the mini series so grab one if you can!

In the words of Steve Jobs, you’re using it wrong. This phone is perfect but Apple refused to put any effort into user experience. That went out the window when Steve Jobs died. You need to use this with Display Zoom turned on and with the “Customize Text” size to be quite minimal on each app and the Home Screen. I think I have mine set to either the second or third lowest option. Once you have this, it is literally like an iPhone 5 feel.

. I switched from SE2 to Pixel 6a in Nov 2022. It was just too big. Bought my 13 mini 3 months later, about 9 months ago. It’s the Goldilocks phone size: everything is just right.

The mini is a niche device. The sales numbers for miniature phones don't lie. They are a dying breed in every brand.

This may be the last of its kind so I would grab one if you can. Looks like 6.1in screens and larger are the norm now for Apple, especially with the introduction of the 14 Plus model as an option to the standard iPhone lineup.

Its not the price, its the name. If the Mini was called the normal “iPhone 13” and the normal iPhone “iPhone 13 Plus” next to the “iPhone 13 Max” People would buy the Mini. But because its called “Mini” people think its not the best phone. I like this size very much tbh. And I hate the 6.1 phones. Apple should stick with the 5.9” instead like the 11 Pro. 5.4” is a size what Steve Jobs would love.

Had mine since July 2022. Battery health at 82% and I’ll be changing batteries in 2 months. Unless Apple makes an SE 4 with this chassis and screen and the A17 at least, I won’t be changing my 13 mini anytime soon.

The 13 mini is the ideal smart phone for the Blind. We don't need large displays and when you turn on screen curtain the battery life is better. as a blind person I hate large displays and sincerely hope Apple will continue the mini series.

People go on about how small the 13 mini is and while true, it is small in comparison, screens have just gone huge the past few years. It was only in 2017 Apple released the iPhone 8 PLUS which screen is only 0.1inch larger. You have to account for the notch too of course but even then, you get used to this phone fast I love the design, the fact they got an iPhone 13 into this form factor and while I do watch some stuff on it, most of what I watch is on my TV including KZbin. I’m sad that Apple is discontinuing it and can’t see myself going to SE, i like faceID and the better cameras etc.
