iPhone SE (2022) pros and cons Pros
Cons
iPhone 13 mini pros and cons Pros
Cons
Design and Display QualityYou might not care about style, but the 13 mini is truly compact and its screen is just far betterThe iPhone SE (2022) looks like a bit of an antique in the tech world of today with its big borders around the screen and dated design, while the 13 mini has a way more contemporary look with an edge to edge screen and flat sides. You can see an exact visualization of the differences between these two in our size comparison tool below:
Apple iPhone SE (2022) Dimensions 5.45 x 2.65 x 0.29 inches 138.4 x 67.3 x 7.3 mm Weight 5.08 oz (144 g) Apple iPhone 13 mini Dimensions 5.18 x 2.53 x 0.3 inches 131.5 x 64.2 x 7.65 mm Weight 4.97 oz (141 g) Apple iPhone SE (2022) Dimensions 5.45 x 2.65 x 0.29 inches 138.4 x 67.3 x 7.3 mm Weight 5.08 oz (144 g) Apple iPhone 13 mini Dimensions 5.18 x 2.53 x 0.3 inches 131.5 x 64.2 x 7.65 mm Weight 4.97 oz (141 g) See the full Apple iPhone SE (2022) vs Apple iPhone 13 mini size comparison or compare them to other phones using our Size Comparison tool. Of course, the iPhone 13 mini lives up to its name and is a bit smaller indeed, plus it's also a smidgen lighter. However, both leave the impression of being extremely lightweight and comfortable to carry in a pocket. In terms of usability, the flat sided design of the 13 mini makes it easier to pick the phone from a table. The SE, on the other hand, comes with curved sides which help for a more comfortable in-hand feel. But while we may argue about beauty and aesthetics, there is no arguing about screen quality: the iPhone 13 mini has the better screen, and that's easy to see. It has a larger 5.4" panel vs 4.7" on the SE. They have different dimensions too: the 13 mini is taller and narrower, while the SE screen has wider dimensions. What matters the most here, however, is screen tech. The SE uses the older LCD tech, while the 13 mini bets on more modern OLED technology. The OLED panel has perfect blacks, excellent contrast, vibrant colors, no ghosting, and it features a sharper resolution (750p on the SE vs 1080p on the 13 mini). We noticed the SE was dimmer, it had a slower response, ghosting, and worse viewing angles. An easy win for the 13 mini. Display measurements and quality

The CIE 1931 xy color gamut chart represents the set (area) of colors that a display can reproduce, with the sRGB colorspace (the highlighted triangle) serving as reference. The chart also provides a visual representation of a display's color accuracy. The small squares across the boundaries of the triangle are the reference points for the various colors, while the small dots are the actual measurements. Ideally, each dot should be positioned on top of its respective square. The 'x: CIE31' and 'y: CIE31' values in the table below the chart indicate the position of each measurement on the chart. 'Y' shows the luminance (in nits) of each measured color, while 'Target Y' is the desired luminance level for that color. Finally, 'ΔE 2000' is the Delta E value of the measured color. Delta E values of below 2 are ideal.
The Color accuracy chart gives an idea of how close a display's measured colors are to their referential values. The first line holds the measured (actual) colors, while the second line holds the reference (target) colors. The closer the actual colors are to the target ones, the better.
The Grayscale accuracy chart shows whether a display has a correct white balance (balance between red, green and blue) across different levels of grey (from dark to bright). The closer the Actual colors are to the Target ones, the better.
View all In terms of biometrics, the 13 mini relies on Face ID, while the SE brings back the Touch ID home button. Face ID feels effortless (and now works with masks too), but there is something reassuring about having a physical home button with Touch ID and that fingerprint sensor is reliable as ever. Performance and SoftwareA15 kind of power.Apple shook the budget phone market a couple of years ago with the original iPhone SE, which had a flagship-grade processor... unheard for in a budget phone at the time! These days, we were not quite as surprised to see the latest Apple A15 chip power the iPhone SE. But even if the element of surprise is gone, we can still appreciate it. A budget phone having the same firepower as the 13 mini, that's remarkable. As you know, the word "powerful" doesn't fully describe the A15 Bionic chip. It's more than that, it's the fastest chip on the market and that might just be so in the next couple of years. Take a look at a few benchmarks below that prove that:

CameraSE as in "Single-camera Edition"Okay, the truth is that SE stands for "Special Edition", or at least it used to, but it does indeed come with just one camera on its back, while the 13 mini brings that same wide lens but with an ultra-wide one too. It's actually quite nice to see that the SE (2022) has all the same computational bells and whistles, even Smart HDR4 and improvements to video quality, and the only thing missing on the camera specs sheet is the sensor-shift video stabilization that you get on the 13 mini. iPhone SE (2022) vs iPhone 13 mini Camera SamplesThe main difference in daylight photos comes mostly from the wider camera on the iPhone 13 mini compared to the SE, but for all else the colors, detail and dynamic range are remarkably similar. iPhone SE (2022) vs iPhone 13 mini night photosIn low light, however, the SE does not support night mode and this is noticeable in the pictures which just lack the clarity and vibrance you get out of the iPhone 13 mini. It's a much more noticeable difference. Again, the wider field of view on the iPhone 13 mini is noticeable, but as I move around you can also see how you get quite a bit of jitter on the SE while the 13 mini remains much more stable. In low light, it's not just about the video stabilization: detail appears blurry on the SE while it remains sharp on the 13 mini, and colors are also better preserved. Also notice how every movement of the camera results in ghosting on the SE, while the 13 mini maintains the picture quality. Audio Quality and HapticsThe iPhone 13 mini might be small but it packs a punch with the speakers. The SE also employs a similar dual speaker system with a main, bottom-oriented main speaker helped by a secondary speaker in the earpiece, but you should be able to hear a difference. Stay tuned for more impressions coming soon. And as for the headphone jack, well... it's missing. That's been the case in the last few years, and it's definitely not coming back on iPhones. Battery Life and ChargingDon't expect miracles hereA mini phone and an SE phone walk in to a bar, and... immediately go looking for a charger! Okay, that's not how these jokes go, but it is how reality will go with these phones if you start using them more intensely. Is there a difference in battery life between the SE (2022) and the 13 mini? We have run our three independent battery tests where phones are set at identical brightness levels for an equal playing field. Here are the results: PhoneArena Battery Test ResultsVideo Streaming Higher is betterWeb Browsing (hours) Higher is better3D Gaming (hours) Higher is betterApple iPhone SE (2022)4h 28 min View all Ah, small phones and battery life! Not the happiest of couples, but if we let the inevitable sigh go and face reality, we'd see how the SE has actually improved from its predecessor, but it's the 13 mini that lasts a bit more. We get a full day with average use easily on the 13 mini, and that's what matters after all, but these phones will disappoint heavy users or at least keep them tethered to a charger often. The maximum charging speeds on both is limited to 20 watts, and realistically even a bit lower. Both the SE and the 13 mini support wireless charging, but you get the fancy and faster MagSafe magnetic charging on the 13 mini, while the SE cannot snap as tightly and is just not quite as cool with its regular wireless charging coils. Summary and Final VerdictSo... it's time to get back to the question that started it all: should you spend nearly double the money on the $600 iPhone 13 mini when you can get an iPhone SE (2022) for $430? However that price difference is really not that big. And if you are the more discerning kind that would actually use an ultra-wide camera, and appreciate the vibrant colors of the OLED screen by watching a lot of videos, and if you value the extra bit of battery life, then without a doubt go for the 13 mini. It's nicer in pretty much every way. But that SE? It brings back serious nostalgic vibes and yeah, it's a solid phone with a button. They don't make 'em like that no more.
