Tim Cook, the CEO of Apple, put months of speculation to rest as he announced the company’s latest line of iPhones at a virtual event on Tuesday. The iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro are going to be available for pre-order in under 10 days from now. Meanwhile, the iPhone 12 mini and iPhone 12 Pro Max hit stores on November 13.

The iPhone 12 mini seems a smart inclusion in the series, offering almost the same features as the flagship iPhone 12. Apple claims that the phone is the “smallest, thinnest, and lightest 5G smartphone in the world”, complete with the same camera system as the iPhone 12.

• Verizon has one of the most appealing offers, with the carrier allowing you to buy the iPhone Mini at an affordable price of $11.95/month for two years. In exchange, you’ll need to sign up for an Unlimited plan, and trade in an iPhone X or higher model.
• Existing iPhone 8 and 8 Plus users can get discounts to the tune of $250 by simply trading in the phone and signing up for an Unlimited plan with Verizon.

The iPhone 12 mini sports a 5.4‑inch all‑screen OLED display, a Dual 12MP camera system, and Apple’s new seven-element lens. It runs on the ultra-fast A14 Bionic processor, which delivers stellar performance even under heavy use. It will be available in five color variants and three storage capacities.
