I could struggle on and saving a bit more is tempting, but the battery on this phone is so crap now that I can't get anywhere near a full day out of it so if I go anywhere I have to think about where I'll charge it. All I've done today is watched about 20 minutes of YouTube in bed, listened to a podcast for 30 minutes and a bit of normal browsing and it's at 33% at lunchtime. I know the 12 Mini isn't exactly known for great battery life but surely it's not as bad as that.

Not sure then if you would like the 12 mini. It does seem to appeal to people who primarily want a phone. I use mine for streaming music to a speaker for 8 hours some days but otherwise it's calls/texts minimal surfing the web. I do everything else on bigger devices.

Are you happy with your existing phone? If so, consider getting the battery replaced at an Apple Store. It's not that expensive, and you'll often get an entirely new phone instead (if the battery adhesive in your phone has hardened and can't be removed easily, they'll condemn it and give you a new one, happened to me twice now).
Edit: just noticed you're looking to switch to an iPhone... soz.

If you’re not in a rush, iPhone 14 will be released in September, will likely mean a reduction in price for the previous models.
