i had an iPhone 13 mini for a year before reluctantly upgrading to the iPhone 15 Pro. between it having usb-c and the mini being discontinued, i figured it was time.

i went back to my mini two months later.

aside from travel apps, music, myfitnesspal and logging receipts to expensify, i don’t use my phone very much. quite the contrary; i wish i could use it less. something like the light phone with just enough functionality to fit my use case would be perfect.

the mini is the perfect phone for me. i love how it fits comfortably in one hand and is light enough to hold for extended periods of time. i also enjoy it being small enough to fit in my pants pockets or fanny packs without bulging.

(ironically, while the iPhone 15 Pro had more capable cameras, i’ve taken more photos with my mini because of how easy it is to retrieve and use.)

i was saddened by apple’s decision to stop producing the mini. while i definitely understand why, it sucks that there are essentially no options for people who don’t need big phones.

oh well. anyway.

oh well. anyways.s.
