How did iPhone 13 mini evolve?13 people who should buy 13 mini, those who are satisfied with 12 mini
The latest iPhone 13 (right) and iPhone 13 mini (left) (left), which started selling on September 24.These models will be the choice of many people than the high -end model "iPhone 13 Pro" and "iPhone 13 Pro Max", which exceeds 100,000 yen.
The difference between 12 mini and 13 mini is mainly "8"
Let's first look at the difference between Phone 13 mini when compared to iPhone 12 mini.The main differences are the following eight points.
Tip and display are small
Of these, I think that 1-3 is not a big difference for many people, so I will look at the points of 4 to 7 in detail.
First of all, when it comes to chips, when a benchmark test was performed using "Geekbench 5", the iPhone 12 mini CPU performance was 1586 (single core) / 3990 (multi -core), whereas the iPhone 13 mini was 1736 (1736.Single core) / 4629 (multi -core).There is only the latest chips, and the performance is improved numerically, but there is no difference that can actually be experienced, so the difference in chips will not be a major purchase.Of course, there is a performance difference of about 30-40 % of A13 bionic, so if you are using a model before iPhone 11 or older, I think it is worth replacing.
Regarding the display, the difference between 200 Nito is "slightly brighter", although it has never been higher in numerical values.In addition, it is a level that cannot be understood unless both models are arranged side by side, so it will not be a major differentiation factor.
Unfortunately, the initial cost has increased, so if you value price, you can choose 12 mini.
As for storage, opinions are somewhat divided depending on the perspective.The minimum configuration of the iPhone 12 mini was from the 64GB model (74,800 yen: price at the time of release), whereas the iPhone 13 mini starts at 128GB (86,800 yen).Simply looking, I'm glad that the storage capacity is doubled, but on the other hand, the price of the cheapest model has been increased by 12,000 yen.
I use the 64GB model of the iPhone 12 mini, so I currently use only about 35GB, so honest iPhone 13 mini had a 64GB model.In addition, the price of 128GB of the iPhone 12 mini at the time of release was 79,800 yen, so it seems that it seems to be increasing the capacity and raising the price.
There is no way to do it because there is no 64GB model of the iPhone 13 mini, but the price of the 64GB model of the iPhone 12 mini sold together is reduced to 69,800 yen (even if you choose a 128GB model, it is 75,800 yen).In other words, up to 17,000 yen is different compared to the iPhone 13 mini, so it seems like an ant to buy an iPhone 12 mini.
The evolution of the camera is "actually try it"
However, it is better to judge it after understanding the difference between the camera and the battery.When I actually used it, I felt that these two points were the part that was greatly separated between 13 mini and 12 mini.
First of all, the big difference in the camera is the "photograph style" (a function that can reflect the color of your favorite when shooting) and the "cinematic mode" (the iPhone camera when shooting photos) is used to match the subject.It is a function to automatically change the position of focus).For details of each function, please refer to the article "The iPhone 13" amazing "and" Fucking ", which is" straightforward ", but I will find out how much value in these functions.It will greatly affect the product selection.However, these are parts that you can not realize unless you actually shoot, so we recommend that you actually touch them at the store if possible.
To say my honest impression, I didn't feel so attractive in the photograph style.If you use this function, you can select the taste of the photos from the four styles of [Rich contrast], [Warm] [warm], [cold], [Cold], in addition to [Standard] when shooting.The difference depends on the style, so it is more convenient to shoot in that style from the beginning, considering the trouble of retouching later, but in my eyes the difference is only slightly different compared to the [standard] state.It was.
In addition, it is troublesome to switch the settings every time, so it is troublesome to change the settings every time.The approach to software photos is an Apple, so I was expecting it very much, but I guess I don't feel much benefit unless I'm a person who likes the camera.Also, if you like photography in the first place, I think it's better to choose Pro or Pro Max, which has higher camera performance than iPhone 13 or 13 mini ...
On the other hand, cinematic mode is a function that clearly shows the "difference".At the time of video shooting, the focus is automatically focused on the subject, and you can easily shoot videos like a movie with a firm background.Depending on the subject and the scene, the smoothness of the focus switch is lacking, the outline of the subject and the blur of the background are unnatural, and there are still evolved processes, but especially those who shoot a lot of videos.You can experience a good video experience, so you may feel enough value.
In addition, the number of failed photos due to image stabilization at night and time during the nighttime can be reduced, and a stable video with less rugged images, especially with optical image stabilization, is reduced, especially at night.The point is that the more people who use the camera, the more they can experience.Nevertheless, recent iPhone cameras do not have much difference in quality unless they are very bad conditions, so it is likely to be left to individual judgment (at least 12 mini.enough).
The most important consideration is to carry a battery
While the value of the evolution of the camera varies depending on the person, the clear merit that is common to many people is the improvement of battery life.Personally, I think this is the point that greatly affects the usability of iPhone 12 mini and 13 mini.That's because the battery is the only weakness of "mini" compared to other iPhone series.
It depends on how you use your daily iPhone, but in my case, if you use it lightly, you may have about 40 % of the battery even if you use it normally from morning to night.However, for example, if you take a lot of photos and videos in camping, travel, events, etc., watch videos for a long time, or navigate on maps, you may not have one day.Of course, there is no problem if you charge it frequently with a mobile battery or car cigar socket, but it has never been used without such a lot of time.
So how different the battery life is between 13 mini and 12 mini?As a trial, I watched a 4K YouTube video on the full screen for 2 hours (the screen brightness is the maximum), while the battery level of the iPhone 12 mini was 85 %, whereas the iPhone 13 mini was 85 %.was.The battery level after six hours is 46 % for iPhone 12 mini, while the iPhone 13 mini remains 55 %.
In this way, it is clear that the battery is improved, and it seems that it can be used for about 1 to one and a half hours for my usual use.You may think it's about an hour, but this is a big difference in use.Only this part should have been waiting for 13 mini!
By the way, according to the experimental results conducted by the YouTube channel "MRWHOSETHEBOSS", it is time for iPhone 13 mini to be 6 hours and 26 minutes for the iPhone 13 mini to run out of the battery by operating video playback, games, and camera shooting in order.It is 5 hours and 54 minutes (by the way, iPhone 13 is 7 hours and 45 minutes).
What do you think of the difference of 17,000 yen
To summarize so far, if you are wondering whether to buy an iPhone 13 mini or 12 mini, the camera, battery, and some people focus on storage and cinematic mode, and the difference is 17,000 yen.Whether or not to match the price difference is the point of judgment.
If I didn't have 12 mini ...As I wrote earlier, will the battery that greatly affect the daily feeling of use be a decisive factor?Do you pay 17,000 yen to use your iPhone for about 1-2 hours?I'm very worried, but now my wallet is a bit harsh, so it's more satisfying to use 12 mini and spend money on the floating money for the 3rd generation or HomePod mini purchase.
What is the different mini compared to the iPhone 13?
Finally, let's look at the judgment points when you are wondering if you are lost in 13 mini and 13.However, this is not so hard to compare.If you actually compare the specifications on the web page of Apple's "Compare iPhone models", you can see only the following four points.
In other words, all other specifications are the same, so the only point is how to capture the display size and battery capacity due to purely the body size.The price difference between 13 mini and 13 is 86,800 yen and 98,800 yen for the smallest 128GB model, so the two are 12,000 yen difference (the difference between 256GB, 512GB model is the same).
I feel that the recent iPhone is too expensive, and I don't feel the benefits that match the price even in 12 mini.I think that the best iPhone is the most reasonable iPhone, "I think the display size is enough.You may think that the screen is bigger, but there is also a disadvantage that the size of the body size is inconvenient because the large body size is inconvenient.The mobility that can be put in pockets and bags quickly and can be operated quickly with one hand, and the goodness of the experience is the privilege only by small size mini.
Certainly, as is the case with 13 mini, 13 longer batteries are strongly drawn back hair.It would be best if there was an iPhone mini with 13 battery performance and reduced chip performance.
