Apple iPhone 13 mini

Australian PC World | David Price

This is a super-powerful phone with a great screen and cameras in a highly portable chassis, and it has an awful lot to recommend it; but the things that put people off last year-small screen, high price tag, shortish battery-life remain the case, and I can't see this changing many minds.

If you think most devices these days are too huge to handle and you'd prefer a smaller-sized smartphone, then this is undoubtedly the best around thanks to its brilliant camera, top-level performance, and good battery life. A couple of drawbacks including its lack of a telephoto camera and its bog standard 60Hz refresh rate hold it back from absolute perfection, but it's still an excellent option.

It is really great that Apple packed so much performance into the small chassis. The quality of the camera, the stereo speakers, and also the internal microphones are all first-class.

The iPhone 13 and 13 mini are a very pedestrian upgrade from the last generation, but they do offer big improvements where it counts the most: battery life and storage.

Trusted Reviews | Max Parker

It might be mini in size, but the iPhone 13 Mini excels...

NotebookCheck | Mike Wobker

If you're looking for a compact high-end smartphone, there's no getting around the iPhone 13 mini. The system performance, the camera quality, and the battery life as well are unmatched by the competition in this size category.

If you are rocking an iPhone 12 mini from last year - hold on to it, unless you are really craving an upgrade in battery life. In all other aspects, the Apple iPhone 13 mini is a "slightly better 12 mini".

If you're looking for a small powerhouse, the iPhone 13 Mini is a compact but capable edition worth checking out, even if you'll want to bring that battery cable with you. It's an easy recommendation for those who yearn for a small phone.

Engadget | Cherlynn Low

The iPhone 13 mini is great for one-handed use, packing a top-tier processor and excellent cameras into an entry-level Apple phone. Unfortunately, it barely lasts a day on a charge.

The Verge | Dieter Bohn

Ithink it's all too easy to look at the iPhone 13 and 13 Mini and not think much of the updates this year. Cameras get better every year, and every company promises good battery life, after all. And compared to the massive changes we saw on the iPhone last year, the 13 looks iterative, more like an iPhone 12S than truly new models.

The Verge | Dieter Bohn

... its battery life is much improved over last year's 12 Mini, but not quite enough for me to throw caution to the wind and recommend it to anybody who wants a smaller phone.

Expert Reviews | Jonathan Bray

The Apple iPhone 13 mini is a pocket powerhouse that comes with better battery life, a better camera and twice the storage.

TechRadar | James Peckham

It's powerful, the camera is top-tier, and the battery life is better than that of the iPhone 12 mini. It isn't the best iPhone outright, but if you're looking for a smaller device then you're in luck.

PC Mag | Sascha Segan

The iPhone 13 mini is Apple's most affordable and pocket-friendly flagship, but you'll probably want to spend an extra $100 on the larger iPhone 13 for better battery life.

Firstpost | Ameya Dalvi

Go for the iPhone 13 mini and you won't be disappointed at all. And let's hope this isn't the last of small phones that we have seen.

The Indian Express | Anuj Bhatia

If you don't like carrying jumbo-sized phones, the iPhone 13 mini is worth looking at...The iPhone 13 mini does feel like an iPhone but it's also different in many ways. Sometimes a small change makes a huge difference in the way we see things in life, and the iPhone 13 mini is a step in that direction.

India Today | Ketan Pratap

The iPhone 13 mini may be small in size, but it's big on features. It offers plenty of features that you won't find in modern-day Android premium phones.

Stuff | Craig Grannell

Outwardly similar to the iPhone 12 Mini, but this upgrade meaningfully improves the camera and battery life of Apple's most pocketable iPhone.

The Guardian | Samuel Gibbs

The iPhone 13 mini is without doubt the best small phone you can get. The few competitors that exist are usually cut-down, cheaper models with compromised experiences, where the 13 mini is a full iPhone, just condensed.

Tom's Guide | Jordan Palmer

The iPhone 13 mini is the most powerful small phone ever. It packs in great cameras and better battery life, plus 128GB of storage to start and class-leading performance.

Pocket-lint | Britta O'Boyle

If you don't want a big-screen device then this handset is ideal. It's a true pocket powerhouse that's well worthy of your attention - if you can forgive the smaller battery life as the only compromise anyway.

The iPhone 13 Mini's screen is small, but its capabilities are many.
