Itching over an iPhone 12 mini purchase too. It's years since I've had a brand new phone (tend to buy 2nd hand every 18-30 months).
Currently on a several year old 1st gen iPhone SE and the battery lasts about 8 hours if I'm lucky, but then I'm not really going out anywhere and it sits on my desk plugged in to a charger most of the day. If I use an app like Google Maps and scroll around it goes down about 1% every 5 seconds.
£31/month from Apple direct (128GB model) seems like the best deal I can see. There's nothing special for me if I go via current provider (EE).
Just got a new iPhone SE (2020) from work but can't upgrade it this weekend as I'm on call and I can't switch the existing phone off. (Can't put personal stuff on work phone either.) But it'll give me a chance to see if an upgrade to the new iPhone SE would be good enough (and cheaper).
iPhone Mini has arrived, so far, very happy with the size and weigh
