Like the iPhone 12, the iPhone 12 mini has Dolby Vision included, which means it can record in high dynamic range (HDR) video format. The iPhone 12 mini can record video in 4K at 30fps, which is pretty powerful for such a small device.This is something Apple already offers accessories for, and we’re sure to see more, both Apple and third-party in the future.

This was a particularly intensive day, though, and on other busy days we also found the phone would make it through to bedtime.

The A14 Bionic chipset that powers this device might not be the fastest chipset for iPhones any more but we found it to work nearly flawlessly, whatever we threw at the phone. Plus, you've got a top-end camera array with two 12MP rear shooters that perform just as well as those on the iPhone 12. The cameras can feel a touch slow at times, but that’s likely owing to the Apple’s Smart HDR 3 technology, which works automatically on some shots. This uses artificial intelligence to identify elements of what you’re shooting, and optimize the exposure to highlight certain features or areas.
