Posted October 15, 2020 at 9:00 a.m

iPhone 12 iPhone 12 Mini

Which iPhone to choose in 2020, while Apple has just lifted the veil on a new cheaper version than its iPhone 12 ? The iPhone 12 Mini is the new cheapest iPhone in 2020 (apart from the iPhone SE) and comes to compete with its big brother the iPhone 12 directly. Apart from the “Pro” range made up of the iPhone 12 Pro and the iPhone 12 Pro Max, this new “standard” family made up of the iPhone 12 Mini and the iPhone 12 is enough to please.

Here is our big Special iPhone 12 mini vs iPhone 12 comparison. We will look into the details of the two -products technical sheet to help you choose between iPhone 12 mini and iPhone 12. To do this, we will highlight the common points and differences to find out which one is the best and which iPhone to choose in 2020. Cheaper and smaller, must the iPhone 12 Mini be preferred ? 5G compatible, with the latest A14 Bionic chip, is it the real star of the new Apple range ?

Comparison: iPhone 12 or iPhone 12 Mini ?

Differences on their design

The new range of iPhone 12 is marked for the third consecutive year by The presence of a notch. On iPhone 12 as on iPhone 12 Mini, it hides the 3D facial recognition system from Apple better known as Face ID.

Apple again recovers the main idea initiated by the iPhone X for style, but this year, design marks a breakup. The iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini see their design much more angular than the iPhone 11. A drawing that strongly recalls the iPhone 4 and its clearer lines, enough to combine two generations of iPhone in one and it must be recognized that it is rather effective.

The design of iPhone 12 Mini and iPhone 12 does not vary hardly between the two models. They are both made up of an aluminum frame, and enjoy a back Ceramic Shield in frosted glass qualified by Apple more resistant. The borders inherited from the iPhone 4 give the two smartphones a more compact form, while keeping a fairly large screen covering the entire front of the front.

iPhone 12 colors

The colors of the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Mini are the same. In the catalog, Apple offers five versions: black, white, green, blue and product red. They are always more flashy than the colors in the “Pro” range.

Differences on screens

Another difference between iPhone 12 Mini and iPhone 12 – if not the most important and visible – the size of the screens. Apple does not offer three but four iPhone variations this year and the new iPhone 12 mini is the smallest of them, with a 5.4 -inch diagonal screen. The iPhone 12 has a 6.1 inch screen, the same as that offered on the iPhone 12 Pro. It therefore allows better readability. We can nevertheless appreciate the format of fairly compact smartphones and the iPhone 12 Mini should be very pleasant in hand.

iPhone 12 mini size comparison

Above, you can see the comparison that Apple allowed itself during its keynote so that its customers can get an idea of ​​the size of the iPhone 12 Mini. Much smaller than the rest of the iPhone 12, it nevertheless offers a screen with A sufficiently visible display. He is the most compact of his accomplices, but there is nonetheless a smartphone up to the height to watch videos and offer good readability.

Good news: iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Mini both take an OLED screen. Apple finally chose to abandon the aging LCD screens, which the firm continued to offer on its standard models to highlight the pro models. This is no longer the case (only the iPhone is keeping an LCD screen) and the iPhone 12 and 12 Mini recover the OLED Super Retina XDR screen.

2020 iPhone 12

What is the point of going to LCD at the OLED ? For those who ask themselves the question, know that LED technology brings better colorimetry, more marked contrasts, deeper blacks and a greater brightness.

Performances: A14 Bionic and 5G chip

Apple does not stop improving its chips from year to year to be able to offer more powerful and fast devices for each new iPhone release.

Storage capacities are the same on the two smartphones. Apple markets The iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Mini from 64 GB of storage, which does not change from the previous iPhone 11. Too bad that Apple remains closed to the idea of ​​increasing this capacity, knowing that the vast majority of competition on Android begins at 128 GB or even 256 GB. In any case, no storage difference is to be seen between iPhone 12 Mini and iPhone 12. For the smallest and cheapest, it is always an advantage in front of the iPhone, which is limited to a storage of 32 GB.

If the wired reload of the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini is compatible up to 18 W, the difference in speed will not be so large with its wireless charging system at 15 W.
