my wife upgraded from a 13 mini to an Air and she loves it. She thought she hated the larger size of new phones, but after holding the Air in her hand she realized the weight and thickness was the issue for her!
It’s a tough call though because the Air has a lot of pros and cons! My wife never takes nature photography or macro photography, so she was OK with the 1 camera compromise.
If you truly want a shorter phone, my condolences lol. Apple seems to be ignoring this user segment.
- apparent 8mo agoI tried the Air and went back to the mini because of the camera compromises. One big issue for me was losing Cinematic video, which I use all the time.

- lurking_swe 8mo agoI can relate. I actually used to be jealous of the ladies because they always have a convenient purse to put things in. These days I wear a light weight cross-body “sling” bag, and i’m happy as a peach. Easy way to bring my phone, sunglasses, wallet, keys, etc with me. Pockets can be pretty annoying. Maybe 2027 will be the year of the mini? :)

- frereubu 8mo agoNow imagine an iPhone Mini Air. I'd be all over that, camera compromises or not.
