You will hate the battery life of the mini (or at least you’ll allways think „dang it I should have gotten the one with more battery life“) and you will get used to to bigger phone in no time.

Frankly speaking, the 6.1 models aren’t really that big. They are one handed operateable (is this really a word?) in 98% of the time.

If you are unsure, go to your next Apple Store and fiddle around with the devices.

Imma be biased, but I for myself NEED the bigger (aka plus/max) screen (and the battery life! It is so quality of life that i do not need to think about the battery for 2 days straight), but sometimes (not often though) I dig the small form factor of my work 13 vanilla. It has just about the right size and isn’t to big for your pockets. I surely can fit my 14 plus in my pockets but the difference in size is significant.

Regarding the mini, I think that it is comically small - WAY too small for a device which primary function is you staring at things it shows you on his display. And as I said: battery life is abysmal :/

Delete some of your downloaded music. Browse through your alite models, do you need ALL of them?

16gigs of photos is massive, you may move them to the cloud.

Get yourself some iCloud (or Google drive, Amazon, whatever) Storage. If you „need“ all that files you shouldn’t rely on the internal storage only anyway… Decent iCloud storage means you can easily only keep the preview images of your photos.

64gigs internal ist clearly not enough for your use case.

Seriously (and by no means I want to abash you) - you have so minimal storage left you surely can’t even install updates. Why are you guys waiting till the very last moment to do something about it?

Go for the bigger display. I think the standard 6.1 iPhone is a great size, but it really never catched me, so I was switching back and forth between iPhones and Pixels. Sadly my Pixel 7 (great device btw, feels so nice in the hand) has had issues with the fingerprint sensor and some other quirks so I decided: I should wait for the 8gen2 phones…. But I can’t stand it right now…firetruck it, I‘ll try with a iPhone again So, the choices were limited: Pro Max 13, pm14 or 14plus. Prices here in Germany s ridiculously high: 13pm is about 1300€ @ 128gb, PM14 more like 1500. 14 Plus is about 900€.

Sooooo… I really like the pro motion display and anybody saying „you can’t see the difference“ is a straight up liar, but the 60hz from the plus do look way smoother then androids 60hz (alltough to be fair, most of the devices with android don’t even have 60hz displays anymore) and the tele would be nice, but it was not worth it for me (realtalk: for 200 more then the 14+ I would have bought the 13PM, but prices are insane….)

What was worth it, was the size of the device. I really enjoy the big display. It is massive in my pocket tough, but I like the 6.7 way better than the 6.1

Btw, beware, the pro models (and that means also the pro max) are HEAVY. My pixel 7 was heavy (at the edge of being to heavy) for his size, the pro maxes are WAY heavier. You should really try them in person bevor buying
