Some people don’t like their smartphones to be too big, given that it affects a device’s portability. For instance, the 6.1-inches and 6.8-inches sizes of the iPhone 12 and 12 Pro are hard to fit in a pocket. This is because not every item in your wardrobe has pockets big enough to fit a six or 7-inch smartphone. Also, these smartphone sizes don’t allow one-hand phone usage that many people do not like.

iPhone 12 Mini has a 5.4-inches Super Retina XDR Display, which is the same as in other models; however, it is smaller to find easily in your pockets and allows one-hand usage. However, the resolution difference between the original and mini isn’t much, i.e., 1170p and 1080p, respectively.
