Apple’s iPhone 12 mini – aka the littles iPhone that could – will arrive in the UAE on October 23.
If you want to secure your very own device, it’s probably worth pre-ordering to ensure you get one of the first devices in the country. You can do that right here.
The iPhone 12 mini is pretty tiny. It rocks a 4.7-inch screen that looks the same as the rest of the iPhone 12 lineup, with flattened sides (that look a lot like the new iPad Air).
The iPhone 12 mini comes with a new 5G modem and new antennas that should really max out that speedier connection. Apple is calling it the “smallest, thinnest, lightest 5G phone in the world.”

The mini involves Apple’s A14 Bionic processor – the fastest we’ve seen inside an iPhone – which means it will hold up against the rest of the iPhone 12 lineup.
The littlest iPhone sacrifices a few things for its diminutive status: you get a dual-lens camera system and an aluminum frame in black, blue, green, red, and white.
The Apple iPhone 12 mini is up for pre-order on November 6 and will start at AED2,999. It will be available in store on November 13 (and in your mailbox if you pre-ordered). It is available in blue, green, black and white.
Want to see the iPhone 12 mini’s bigger brother? Or perhaps its even bigger iPhone 12 Pro brother?
