iPhone 13 mini review: About as good as small phones get

The iPhone 13 mini is the last of a dying breed. Can it compete in a big-phone world?

Apple iPhone 13 mini
  • Expert Rating

    4.50 / 5

Pros

  • Super-fast processor
  • Portable size
  • Excellent cameras

Cons

  • Battery life remains a concern
  • High price tag
  • No ProMotion

Bottom Line

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.

Would you buy this?

Ultimately this laptop has achieved everything I would hope for in a laptop for work, while fitting that into a form factor and weight that is remarkable.
