- sph 2y agoI get that some people spend their lives on their phones, but myself, with desktop, laptop and big hands, I don't want to carry half a tablet in my pocket to text people and play music. I adore my 12 Mini. I just wish it felt as thin as the 8
- Terretta 2y agoIt seems most who are not using tech professionally don't particularly want or habituate all the multiple devices, and as such, the phone becomes their "tablet" experience. No desktop, no laptop, if there's an ipad it's in a different room, the bigger screen of the phone means they only reach for the one thing.
- ectospheno 2y agoI also only text and play music. I get the largest phone available because I'm old and eyesight. Older people tend to have money.
- Tempest1981 2y ago> I just wish it felt as thin as the 8 It's very close: 12 mini -> 8 -> SE gen 1 (or iPhone 5) Height: 131.5 mm -> 138.4 mm -> 123.8 mm Width: 64.2 mm -> 67.3 mm -> 58.6 mm Depth: 7.4 mm -> 7.3 mm -> 7.6 mm Weight: 135 grams -> 148 grams -> 113 grams https://www.apple.com/iphone/compare/?modelList=iphone-12-mini,iphone-8,iphone-se https://www.apple.com/iphone/compare/?modelList=iphone-12-mi...
- sph 2y agoTrue, but the 8 was rounded at the sides, so even if technically close in size, the square edges of the recent models make the phone feel bulkier.
