Design & Display
Apple got a really solid form factor for the iPhone 12 Mini. Although it looks smaller, It is natural to admire the ceramic shield on the edges which for me is the number one prove of quality.
It has 4x better drop performance as claimed by her manufacturer. On the display is a 5.4inch Super Retina XDR display which is an OLED screen in case you are wondering.

Final Thoughts
Apple finally hit a record. They made the first smallest 5G smartphone ever. This is just as good. The iPhone 12 Mini is just as powerful, we didn’t see that coming at all in Nigeria.
The traditional way has been to manufacture something smaller, make it affordable, and lower the spec completely. I guess that didn’t happen here. The iPhone 12 Mini is a wonderful piece.
Apple is gradually changing her marketing model to suit the new kind of customers, particularly in Nigeria where a good number of the populist would love to own an iPhone if the prices are reduced.
