About this iPhone
The iPhone 12 mini A2398 is a powerful and attractive unit of the iPhone 12 Mini series introduced by Apple on October 13, 2020. It was specially intended to be used by carriers in Canada and Japan. However, it is even compatible with other carriers worldwide as well. The iPhone 12 Mini A2398’s specs and features are identical to that of the iPhone 12. The only fundamental difference between the two is the screen size. It is an impressive phone because it comes in a much more manageable size and comparatively affordable price.
The iPhone 12 Mini A2398 features a relatively small 5.4-inch Super Retina XDR display offering a display resolution of 2340 x 1080 with HDR capability. Moreover, this iPhone’s display is equipped with efficient technologies like HDR display, True Tone, and Wide color (P3) that convey vastly more color shades and nuances.
Not just that, this iPhone also features heavy-duty Apple’s A14 Bionic processor that can handle even more demanding tasks. This iPhone is a Dual-camera phone with two 12 megapixels cameras on its backside to record high-quality videos and one 12 megapixels camera in the front responsible for advanced face ID recognition. It also supports Dual-SIM features compatible with one nano-SIM and one eSIM. This iPhone is available in five pleasing colors: white, black, blue, green (pale), and (PRODUCT) RED. The sixth color (purple) was introduced later on April 20, 2021.
