iPhone 12 Mini: The most powerful compact iPhone of the year?

Lately, there’s a lot out about the iPhone 12 Mini in the world of leaks and rumors. The Mini is the latest addition to the mainstream iPhone lineup. With a 5.4-inch OLED display, it will offer compact dimensions like the iPhone SE 2020, but without the chunky bezels. The phone will have a similar dual-camera setup as the iPhone 12.

Inside, the Apple A14 Bionic chip is going to run the show, and paired with iOS 14, customers can expect the best performance. However, to keep the costs under check, the iPhone 12 Mini may miss out on 5G connectivity. Despite no 5G, rumors suggest a starting price of $700 for the Mini. The 6.1-inch iPhone 12 5G could start from $1,000 whereas the iPhone 12 Pro could start at $1,100. The Pro Max may ask a starting price of $1,200.
