APPLE’S iPhone 12 Mini is available on a very tempting £39-a-month contract.

The new handset is one of Apple’s first 5G blowers – and has a smaller screen for anyone sick of giant phones.

This impressive iPhone deal gets you 100GB of data on Vodafone – courtesy of online retailer Mobiles.co.uk.

Better still, it’s 5G data – so you’ll be able to take advantage of the faster speeds available on the iPhone 12 Mini.

You also get unlimited minutes and texts to boot.

All this costs £39 a month, with a £110 upfront fee.

The total cost of this deal is £1,046 over two years.

That’s higher than the regular price of the phone, which is £699.

But when you factor in the value of the data, you’re actually making a saving.

Vodafone’s 100GB SIM costs £18 a month, or £432 over two years.

Add that onto the price of the iPhone 12 Mini and you get a total bill of £1,131.

So the saving is actually £85 with this tempting deal.

For years, small-handed folk have been begging Apple for a downsized iPhone that doesn’t compromise on performance.

As iPhone sizes have ballooned, you’ve generally had to accept having a worse mobile if you want a smaller display.

The iPhone 12 Mini changes all that completely.

Brilliantly, the mobile is entirely identical to the iPhone 12 proper except when it comes to raw dimensions – and price, of course.

You get the same powerful A14 Bionic processor and OLED screen, both of which appear on the far more expensive iPhone 12 Pro.

And the iPhone 12’s very impressive dual-lens camera makes an appearance too.

It supports 5G internet, so you’ll get super-fast mobile speeds if you have the right SIM card, and enter one of the growing number of 5G areas.

Even the squared-off design with the notched display is borrowed for the iPhone 12 Mini, keeping it in line with the iPhone 12.

But the screen is way smaller, measuring 5.4 inches diagonally from corner to corner.

That’s about 0.6 inches less than the iPhone 12, and more than an inch less than the gargantuan iPhone 12 Pro Max.

It’s a neat size – too small for me, as I’m a Max fan – but perfect for many.

Battery life is listed as a little lower versus the iPhone 12 on the Apple website, but I hardly noticed a difference.

It comfortably lasts a full day, which is the main metric you need to worry about.

And considering you get almost all the same features as the iPhone 12 Pro for £699/$699 (that’s £300/$300 less!), it’s a veritable steal.

The Sun says: A smaller iPhone that doesn’t compromise on performance, the iPhone 12 Mini is the dream mobile for tiny pockets and tinier hands everywhere. It’s even got 5G5/5
