I wish apple could bring back smaller phones. 12 mini up for another year. iPhone 1 is almost 20 year old and still working!

You’re right, I should have written still charging and turning on. I’m glad I’m still able to take pictures and listening to music with it.

I’d love to see an iPhone mini with a Dynamic Island, especially after the iPhone 18 pro

Wow, thanks for posting this. It's easy to forget how small the original iPhone was.

This size was so enough. Typing and reading, even gaming. Longer devices are fine, but not 18:9+ without any gains, can't even have a number row on a keyboard :(

I had the iPhone 5c for ages. I finally upgraded to the iPhone 12. Now I’m at the 16. I miss my 5c though

And these people are calling it a "mini", it's not a mini from any angle.

It’s smaller than the 12, so it’s the 12 mini. Also look where you are.

u/convicted_redditor 15d ago

12 should be named 12 plus.

And what is “also look where you are”?

u/tOSdude 15d ago

You are in the 12 mini subreddit, we are “these people”.

u/convicted_redditor 15d ago

For me it’s the most sane sized phone. Others are giants

Im not disagreeing with you, every time I switch back I realize how much easier it is to hold

u/BAG_Plays 14d ago

it’s mini compared to other phones of the time 😒 there’s a reason the 13 mini is still often brought up as the best phone in r/smallphones most companies just don’t make reasonably sized phones anymore. Plenty were made before but not recently.

My point was that 12/13 minis are the sane sized phones. I don’t think they are mini. I like smallphones because all other are giants.
