Hi everyone hope you're doing well and staying safe :-) right now I have an iPhone 12 mini. I am considering replacing it with the iPhone SE three because I like the home button and physical design of the phone. But I have a couple of questions overall what do people think of the iPhone 12 mini versus iPhone SE three? Also what is the iPhone SE three like compare to the iPhone 12 mini in terms of call quality and battery life? What would you all say the pros and cons are of replacing by iPhone 12 mini with the iPhone SE three? Thanks very much everyone I look forward to your replies.

Battery life and call Quality

By Edward Louie

1 year ago

Battery life on the iPhone 12 mini is probably better because the 12 mini has a bigger battery than the SE 2022, it also depends on what country you’re located in, in the US, the iPhone 12 mini has a Millimeterwave 5G chip, which may take up more power, but the iPhone SE does not have a Millimeterwave chip on 5G, which may decrease performance on certain networks if you switch to the third generation iPhone SE, but this is US only. Battery life is probably going to be better on the 12 mini.
In regards to call quality, both of them have really good quality and supports Enhance voice services, also known as EVS, which provides crystal clear voice calls when using the phone app. Other apps like FaceTime and Facebook messenger will not be affected, but the call quality will be the same on either phone. EVS is available on iPhone eight and later and in the US, it is available on iPhone 11 or later or iPhone XR models purchased after September 2020.
Battery life on both phones will only last about 5 1/2 hours on screen when you have a 90% battery health or more
