Hi Evan: Before you purchase you might want to at least take a look at the 13 pro model. It's a bit larger than the mini granted, but will give you some benefits such as lidar. If you are planning to keep the phone a while and hope to use it to it's greatest potential, the lidar feature is certainly worth having.

I don't really need the absolute top of the line, but I figure that if I'm going to get one, I do admit to feeling that it would be cool to get a really nice one, especially if I can get it in a small package, particularly since I hope to be using it for a good while, given that these things are not cheap. I'll let you know what I get. Evan On 10/20/2022 11:30 PM, Alan Lemly wrote: > Hi Evan, > > Just to clarify some misinformation posted about the iPhone 13 Mini versus > the iPhone SE.
