00:00I am definitely so excited for this.
00:03Good day, you beautiful people.
00:08Welcome to Isara's Tech, where we do tech in your life, in style.
00:11And folks, great news.
00:13I finally have it.
00:15iPhone 13 mini is in my hands.
00:18I just picked this up and I'm so excited because I have the pink iPhone 13 mini.
00:22In this video, we're going to be unboxing this thing.
00:24We're going to be looking at what new features it has,
00:27admire it's being pink, and take some sample shots.
00:30Let's do it.
00:32Obviously, I got the pink one.
00:34iPhone on the sides.
00:35That is a very thin box.
00:38iPhone 13 mini in pink.
00:44Wow, that's so pretty.
00:52We have the lightning cord,
00:55SIM tool, sticker, paperwork.
00:58And that is it.
00:59Right onto the phone.
01:02That is the new camera array.
01:05And as you can see in this light, the details are sort of pink.
01:08It's a very subtle pink.
01:10And I feel like in a lot of the videos because of the studio light,
01:14it sort of looks like it's white.
01:16But in this lighting and against this white table,
01:19you can see that it definitely is not white.
01:23Apple logo on the back, obviously.
01:28This phone fits my hands perfectly.
01:31I am in love.
01:32The sides are sort of rose gold.
01:35I like that.
01:37This thing is so pretty.
01:39So this cover right here tells us that this is a power button on the right side.
01:43On the left, the silent switch and volume button.
01:49The top is clean.
01:51At the bottom, you have speakers and the lightning port.
01:55I am so happy for this pink iPhone.
01:58You know what's coming.
01:59Let's power it up and set it up.
02:01And in the meantime, a montage.
02:03So what's new with the new iPhone?
02:21First off, you guys know that I'm thrilled that there is a pink iPhone this year.
02:25Obviously, there was a previous rose gold iPhone,
02:27but that was just like rose gold.
02:29This is a full on pink iPhone.
02:31The edges are pink, the back is pink.
02:33I mean, sort of.
02:35Looking at the iPhone from this angle, it does look a little white.
02:38Personally, I would have loved it to be a little bit more pink.
02:41Nevertheless, I still feel like it's a pretty phone.
02:43At certain lighting angles, it is more pink than it looks now.
02:47I mean, I get it. It's a non-committal pink phone.
02:50Even if you're not pink crazy like I am, this is a phone you can totally rock.
02:54As tiny as the iPhone 13 mini is, this is still powered by Apple's A15 chip.
02:58AKA, even with the small size, it runs on Apple's latest and most powerful chip.
03:04The same chip that runs the iPhone 13 and the iPhone 13 Pro and Pro Max.
03:09By the way, this is Joshua's iPhone 13 Pro, so check out his unboxing on his channel.
03:13Another improvement on the iPhone 13 mini coming from the iPhone 12 mini
03:17is the fact that the base model for this phone is 128GB.
03:20You can also upgrade to 256GB or 512GB,
03:22although it's only the Pro versions that do the 1TB storage.
03:27I gotta say, you guys, that is a welcome change coming from someone who foolishly ordered
03:31the base 64GB iPhone 12 mini.
03:34I shoot TikToks on the 12 mini and yet I run out of space.
03:38Starting at 128GB for the same price, definitely a great idea.
03:43Now, side-by-side with the iPhone 12 mini that's the same size,
03:46again, I love this uniform factor.
03:49Noticeable differences, of course, include how that camera array is positioned.
03:53You have this new diagonal design and that module is slightly bigger on the iPhone 13 mini.
03:59Up front, though, you have a noticeably smaller notch on a 60Hz screen.
04:04Apple also brought one big improvement that I've been looking to get on the iPhone minis.
04:08This iPhone 13 mini supposedly has better batteries,
04:11with Apple claiming as much as 1.5 hours more battery time.
04:16Of course, I just unboxed this phone so I can't really confirm that right now,
04:19but stay tuned for more videos because I will be talking about that later.
04:23And aside from battery time, this thing has better cameras.
04:26We have similar cameras on the iPhone 13 mini and the iPhone 13.
04:30We're shooting with the main cameras right now, which has the new Apple Censorship Stabilization,
04:36which is a big deal because we only saw it on the iPhone 12 Pro Max.
04:40This time around, all iPhone 13 phones have it and, well, it should make it look better
04:46when you're walking and talking and shooting like this.
04:49We're shooting on the wide this time and this is also an improved camera because it has now better sensors.
04:56But Apple didn't just stop at better cameras.
04:58This thing has new camera features, which include the cinematic mode.
05:06Basically, the cinematic mode, which is what we're using right now,
05:09allows you to create a bokeh and transfer focus while you're shooting.
05:14It makes for some, well, cinematic shots.
05:22The phone is also available on selfie camera, which is what I'm shooting with right now.
05:28Then there's photographic styles.
05:30Basically, they're like filters but not.
05:33Photographic styles allow you to pick and adjust preset profiles
05:38so that you get a certain look when you take photos on the iPhone.
05:42There are five different profiles and here are photo examples of how it treats the same photos.
05:48Right, let's do a quick camera tour.
05:51Camera tour time.
05:52So, did you see that was face unlock right there?
05:56Let's go to the camera.
05:57So, you have your normal 1x, there is a wide, and this can zoom up until 5x.
06:03Hey!
06:04Up here, flash settings, you have, again, the flash settings, live photo settings.
06:11You have that popped up, that is the night mode settings.
06:15You have the different photographic styles here, size, exposure, timer, and then filters.
06:23On the right, you have your portrait mode, you have the same settings down there.
06:27You have your blur or aperture settings, depth settings,
06:32and then you have a pano mode and you can do wide for the pano mode as well.
06:37On the other side, you have your video, you can do wide 1x up until 3x.
06:45And then you can shoot up until 4K 60fps.
06:49You then have your cinematic mode, you can adjust your bokeh here.
06:54And what's great about the cinematic mode is that you can adjust the blur even after shooting.
07:01If you want to see me try that out more, let me know.
07:04Let's do a camera vlog test, comment down below.
07:06And you have a slow-mo mode here, you can do wide 1x, you can do 240fps.
07:12And then finally, you have your time-lapse mode, you can also do wide.
07:16Can you do selfie time-lapses? Yes!
07:19You can do selfie slow-mo as well.
07:21There is your cinematic mode on selfie, again, you can change around the aperture settings.
07:27One thing about the cinematic mode, you can only shoot in 1080p.
07:31You also have selfie video, and you can shoot 4K selfie videos in 60fps, nice.
07:38Selfie photos, you can do wide a little bit as well.
07:42And the last option here is portrait mode.
07:45Alright, that was a really, really quick camera tour.
07:47Here are some more sample shots.
08:02And that was our look at the new iPhone 13 mini.
08:05Of course, I'm gonna need to have to spend more time with this to fully make up my mind about this phone.
08:10I'm pretty curious about how this phone performs.
08:12You guys know that I am super into the whole mini line just because it fits my hands better.
08:17On paper alone, the upgrades that Apple brought us to this teeny tiny phone are the upgrades that I've been looking for coming from the iPhone 12 mini.
08:24But of course, we're still gonna be testing all those features out.
08:27Let me know what your questions are, if you want to see a camera vlog test.
08:30Let me know if you want to see an iPhone 12 mini versus an iPhone 13 mini comparison.
08:35I'm thinking that's something that might be interesting to see.
08:37That's it for today.
08:38If you want to see how I use my tech on a daily basis, find me online.
08:41That's isa.does underscore on Instagram, Twitter, and TikTok.
08:44Until next time.
