what phone is the ideal replacement for someone who has been holding on to the old iPhone 12 Mini?
 
I have an "old' 12 PM. I hold on to it because it works and works well. Why would I change if it does what I need. I do have my truly old work 6 iphone that forwards all work and texts to my personal 12PM.

What is the reason you feel the need to update your phone?
 
I own a 12 mini, and will eventually replace the battery so I can use it for another two or three years. I'm still routinely getting 30 hours per charge, and sometimes up to 40.
 
The 12 Mini is not old.
I thought the exact same thing when I saw this thread listed, and I opened it to see if anyone else commented on that.
Seriously, an highly sophisticated tech device less than 3 years old being called "old"...
