iPhone 12 mini vs iPhone 12 Pro Comparison

iPhone 12 Pro vs mini

In keeping with its legendary quality, Apple is proving this once again with the iPhone 12 mini and iPhone 12 Pro models where the performance of these smartphones are always top of the line. Although they're very different in size, these two models share a lot of common ground when it comes to power. Their A14 chipsets give you great fluidity, both are compatible with 5G, and both are equipped with excellent OLED displays.

iPhone 12 mini, the most compact of the range

It's the small size of this smartphone that may appeal to you. It measures only 131.5 cm (compared to 146.7 cm for the iPhone 12 Pro) and weighs only 135 grams (compared to 189 grams). It also has 64GB to 256GB of storage capacity, compared to 128GB to 512GB for the iPhone 12 Pro, and a lower price tag. As for the screen, it is less imposing than the iPhone 12 Pro. However, it's very pleasant to use and has a resolution of 2,340 × 1,080 px, which means it offers a sharper display than the iPhone 12 Pro. This smartphone also has a dual 12MP rear camera with ultra-wide angle.

iPhone 12 Pro, a high-end smartphone

With its 6.1-inch OLED screen (compared to 5.4 inches for the iPhone 12 mini), this iPhone is a high-end smartphone. All the more so as it stands out in terms of photography. Its triple sensor of 12 Mpx with Ultra wide-angle (the iPhone 12 mini has only 2 sensors) has a LIDAR sensor which offers an excellent understanding of the scene and allows to benefit from the most adapted adjustments. A 12MP telephoto lens is also included. It has a 4× optical zoom and an aperture of f/2.0. This iPhone is more expensive than the mini as a result.

Both iPhone 12 models are equipped with the A14 Bionic chip. It's the size of the smartphone you want that makes the difference. If you're looking for a compact device, the iPhone 12 mini is for you. If, on the other hand, you prefer a large screen for viewing photos and videos and better photo performance, choose the iPhone 12 Pro with its LIDAR sensor.
