With stereo speakers and an IP68 water resistance score, you can enjoy all types of media safely in any setting on the iPhone 12.
iPhone 12 Mini
We'd also like to highlight the iPhone 12 Mini. In everything but size, the iPhone 12 Mini is the exact same device as the iPhone 12. It's currently the smallest and most lightweight 5G phone on the market, and is every bit as powerful as the larger iPhone 12 model.
If you don't mind a compact footprint, you'll get a great iOS experience from the iPhone 12 Mini at a shockingly low price.
Samsung Galaxy S21

Google Pixel 4a
