I wanted badly to keep my 12, but it was too slow. I missed many things because the camera wouldn’t open most of the time. I changed the battery but it didn’t help. I had plenty of free storage. I almost wonder if it was a dud, I never observed the same on other of the same phone. I got the 17 and it’s been a great upgrade.

I JUST bit the bullet and replaced the 12 mini with a 17pro and it’s not as crazy as I thought it would be. That’s said, I just loved that lil phone. I’m gonna find a way to make it live one. iPhone 5, iPhone 12min, favs.

What are you running that feels underpowered on a mini 12?

Nothing in particular, but apps in general take slightly longer to open and close. The UI sometimes freezes for a second when doing certain actions.
