The specs
The iPhone 13 mini comes with 128GB of RAM but can also come with 256GB. A resolution of 1080 x 2340 has the highest pixel per inch ration of 447. The standard 60Hz display which is quite disappointing for a flagship phone like the iPhone 13 pro max which does have 120Hz. Coming with no headphone jack is another issue. There is no headphone adaptor that comes in the box so we recommend Airpods or manually buying one as well as the phone. built in GPS, Face id, ios 15.

should you buy the mini?
The mini is a great choice for anyone wanting a small cheaper versions of the iphone 13. It seems to have none of the setbacks that a smaller phone has (lower battery size, overheat faster ect). the battery life even beats the iPhone 12 pro! For the lower price, the mini is a great choice for your new iPhone. But is it better than the iPhone 13, iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro max?
