According to our mobile phone expert
With the 5G module in the Apple iPhone 12 Mini 256GB Black, you're ready for the internet of the future. This compact starter model model from the iPhone 12 series has a 5.4-inch screen that you can easily operate with one hand. Thanks to the OLED technology in this screen, black tones are really black. On the 256GB storage, you have more than enough space for your photos, videos, and apps. The aluminum sides have the angular design that we know from the iPad Pro. On the back of the device, you'll find a wide-angle lens and an ultra wide-angle lens. With that second camera, you can capture wide landscapes or large buildings. You can also do that in the evening in low light, thanks to Night mode. Thanks to the A14 Bionic chip and 4GB RAM, this device is a bit faster than its predecessors.
Note: an adapter and earbuds aren't included by default. Use your current accessories or purchase them separately.

What a phone! Switched from the Iphone 8, because of the size deliberately waited for a 'small' model to be released. But insanely what a relief. Fast, clear screen, very nice pictures. I chose the color blue, very happy with it! i.c.w. a silicone case (blue) a very chic phone that will hopefully last a few years..
It takes some getting used to without a home button, but that will soon no longer be an issue. It's also a shame that no power strip is included for the included USB-C charging cable, as Apple mentioned, everyone has enough power strips at home, but in 95% of the cases this is a USB-A power strip.

I come from a Huawei P20 Lite and that mobile has been giving me nothing but frustrations lately. In a fit of anger I ordered this iPhone 12 mini. When I was still in my senses, I would never have gotten this over my head because I personally think those things are way too expensive. As always, I received the thing from Coolblue the next day, even though Bpost wants to do everything it can to give their postmen and women some slack. However, then came the revelation. The iPhone does what you ask of it, without murmuring and in no time. Even Siri understood me right away unlike that discarded chinese roboid. Been a frustration free phone user for 6 days now and I love it. Except you Apple, I'm still not a fan and you're way overpriced. But damn, what's the good stuff.
