My first iPhone, coming from a lifelong android user it's been a great little piece of kit for the size. (Obviously this is very subjective)
Only fault hardware wise is the lack of USB-C and no macro camera.

    I had one of these on backorder for months with Amazon. Got sick of waiting and bought from Apple.

    Great phone

    • whyzeguy on 28/10/2022 - 11:03

      YMMV I guess!

      • dingdong3000 on 28/10/2022 - 12:04

        Was it on backorder when you ordered from previous deal?

    Well, mines been on backorder since 15/09…. https://www.ozbargain.com.au/comment/12674109/redir

    • whyzeguy on 28/10/2022 - 11:11

      Cancel and go with Catch… link above.

      • cloudie9 on 28/10/2022 - 11:15

        Too late, I've invested 100% Gift Card on Amazon…

    • mini_wombat on 28/10/2022 - 13:32

      Haha … we will wait years !!!

      • cloudie9 on 28/10/2022 - 13:43

        Still waiting for yours wombat?

        • mini_wombat on 02/11/2022 - 12:48

          Yep …hoe I get it before the iphone 15 comes out. It's annoying that people now can order different colours with instant delivery - I didn't even care about the colour.

          • cloudie9 on 02/11/2022 - 13:45

            @mini_wombat: Right now all I can see is 512gb for $1333.00 but according to @ditroia https://www.ozbargain.com.au/comment/12884747/redir he said he got one early this morning and arriving tomorrow?!?

            @mini_wombat: HI mate, I just cancelled my Amazon after HN got a ripper deal for 512gb, cheaper than the 256gb we had before! https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/734324

            Now, the problem is, I'm stuck with roughly $1k of Amazon gift balance!

            • mini_wombat on 25/11/2022 - 01:51

              @cloudie9: I gave up and cancelled my order. The Amazon Service was useless and they refused to send me the blue version (which is available right now and don't really care about the colour).

              I also cancelled my Prime Sub … (yes … I was very angry). Converted my Amazon voucher to Apple Vouchers and used the Blackfriday deal with 10% cashrewards … on the cheaper 128GB model (which was anyhow the model I wanted).

      Mines been on backorder since 27/09… still waiting.
      Hopefully it means they are getting stock soon if they are taking more backorders again.

  • bdl on 28/10/2022 - 11:21

    What's the battery life like on the mini?

  • Tleyx on 28/10/2022 - 12:03

    Pity it doesnt have a usb c charging slot

    • pizzaguy on 28/10/2022 - 13:00
      -1

      They started making iphones without usb-c?

      • Tleyx on 28/10/2022 - 13:51

        No thats why its a pity.

        I think they are going to next year

  • mason on 28/10/2022 - 12:11

    Catch is out of stock now.

    • whyzeguy on 28/10/2022 - 13:18

      Cheers, post updated.

  • dajackal on 28/10/2022 - 12:33

    Hi OP how'd you find the transition to iOS? I'm thinking to do the same.

  • Mario g on 28/10/2022 - 12:54

    just had a look out of stock !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    • dingdong3000 on 28/10/2022 - 12:59

      Blue still available to order

      • Mario g on 28/10/2022 - 13:10

        no they are not i just checked again!

        • dingdong3000 on 28/10/2022 - 15:06

          Still available https://imgur.com/a/pDhb8Ct

          • Mario g on 31/10/2022 - 13:45

            @dingdong3000: see those big red letters in your picture that displays "temporarily out of stock" - thats means in english out of stock . you can order but you wont get it.

            • dingdong3000 on 31/10/2022 - 14:02

              @Mario g: I know exactly what it means. Anyway OP stated this as Back Order from the beginning. I said it was still available to order which was true. Touch luck you missed out on Catch.

              • Mario g on 31/10/2022 - 14:11

                @dingdong3000: original post i wrote was out of stock… dont care about OP stated and back order - no one wants to wait 2 months as per comments on this thread

                • dingdong3000 on 31/10/2022 - 14:20

                  @Mario g: Why complain when you knew it was Back Order from the start? OP never stated it was ever In Stock on Amazon.

  • baratta on 28/10/2022 - 12:56

    I cancelled my Amazon backorder after weeks too - picked up a mint used 13 Pro for less. Glad the mini didn’t come in the end.

  • mini_wombat on 28/10/2022 - 13:31

    I still have a 13 mini 256GB on preorder from the last deal for $1036 (and 3% cashback and 5-10% discounted gift card use). Good price but it's still not delivered or even has a delivery date - ordered on 15/09! So you might wait some time as all retailers and carriers seem out of stock for weeks now.
    Interesting is that Apple has still next day delivery available.

  • mysterioushunt on 28/10/2022 - 13:35

    I have the 14 Pro and I'm thinking of switching to this. Pro is too big and very heavy.

    • cloudie9 on 28/10/2022 - 13:44

      Its like downgrading….

      • pizzaguy on 28/10/2022 - 14:01

        From what was said it's 100% downsizing.

  • Thrifty Dan on 28/10/2022 - 13:48

    Will drop soon by far more…

  • CyrusL on 28/10/2022 - 15:56

    almost $1,100 for a mini :(
    Can we have sth around $800 on black friday…?

    • cloudie9 on 28/10/2022 - 16:33

      Problem is, these retailers (other than Apple) are having stock drought for almost 6 weeks plus, since the release of iPhone 14. So I highly doubt… I mean, mines been back order since 15/09….

    • financialminimalism on 28/10/2022 - 18:57

      Maybe, but these are last in a series and have a small but loyal customer base keen on them, with no stock outside of Apple. Not like the channel is flooded with this model and they are trying to get rid of old units…

  • ditroia on 01/11/2022 - 21:48

    Bought one this morning 256GB Red, for $1027 arriving tomorrow.

    • Yosh1 on 02/11/2022 - 15:55

      @ditroia, wondering where you ordered from as looking for one too. Thanks.

  • greenlantern on 09/12/2022 - 02:02

    Finally it’s in stock and after 2 months patiently waiting for a better deal like the Old Harvey one (sadly hasn’t) and being prepared to be sent to me as Christmas present at this point 😳 for the Wifey.
