In 2010, when assessing large-screen phones, Steve Jobs famously remarked, 'You can't get your hand around it... No one's going to buy that.' Apple even had a promotional video demonstrating how the thumb could reach all corners of the iPhone screen.Until now, I still hold true to the aforementioned sentiments. For me, the most important aspect of a mobile phone remains its compactness and ease of one-handed operation.
I still remember the comfort of using iPhone 4/4S vividly.
Under pressure from large-screen phones by other manufacturers, Apple abandoned its philosophy from iPhone 6 onwards, producing gigantic phones as we see today.
Thanks to FaceID, the Super Retina XDR display, and the new boxy design, a compact yet powerful iPhone has made its triumphant return.
iPhone 12 mini boasts powerful and latest hardware within a compact form factor.
Combined with its lightness, holding or using iPhone 12 mini single-handedly becomes extremely effortless and comfortable.Once, I attempted to revert to using iPhone SE (2016) in search of compactness, but gave up due to poor battery life. With its compact size and thanks to the new chip's better power management and optimization, iPhone 12 mini, despite having a larger screen, actually offers better battery life than even iPhone SE 2020. Hopefully, it will suffice for my usage needs.It's safe to say that iPhone 12 mini is a rare phone that has got me this excited in recent years. Stay tuned for Mytour's hands-on review and detailed assessment.
