iPhone 13 mini owner here. I love this phone. I've used large phones in the past, was a happy iPhone 7 Plus owner, and owned and used the 5.8-inch iPhones X and 11 Pro, but I'm just so much happier with a smaller phone that I can more easily hold. Part of this is due to my smaller hands, and a large part is the reduction in weight. I don't even care if I drain the battery scrolling TikTok, because the battery is so small I can fast charge back to 80% in no time.

It's weird. I spent my teenage years and early twenties as a yearly/bi-yearly iPhone upgrader, but it turns out that form factor, more so than display, cameras, or gimmicks is what wins me over today.

I proclaim in my everyday life that the phone that will replace my blue iPhone 1 mini will -- as of right now -- be a used/refurbished green iPhone 13 mini. :)
