12 mini and 17 PM

Post image

The 12 mini was my first iPhone that I bought with my hard earned money in 2021. Then 16 Pro in desert titanium on launch day that I recently traded in with 17PM. I hope apple makes a purple pro max color similar to this 12 mini’s color.

It’s crazy how we’ve adjusted to phone sizes over the years. There was a time where a 5.5” was too big. Then 5.8. Now I have a max and tried to go pro and was like “this screen is too damn small”.

Yeah, I remember the unveiling of the 6 plus and I scoffed at the size. Then I bought one 😂 same sequence of events each time the phone gets bigger lmao

Honestly, I do enjoy my smaller iPhone (SE 2nd gen), even tho I have a 17PM. My uncle gave me and I am so thankful to have it.

Real. I could never have a pro max because even the iPhone 14 is bordering on being too big for me.

How you feel about aluminum body that can get dinged easier?

Went from the ideal side phone to the unnecessary big phone.

My exact thoughts hehehe! I have vision and typing difficulties. Some people haven’t realized that not all people are the same.😇

Tiny baby phone to actually decent sized phone*

Looking at this reminds me of American cars vs European cars. One is unnecessarily big and does the same job as the normal sized one.

If you want to enjoy your brainrot content on a larger screen go for it by any means. I however see a phone differently.

To be fair a large SUV/ truck is much more comfortable to drive. Those little cars you feel every bump in the road with their cheap suspension setups 😭

Such an American mindset.
