The author grapples with the decision to upgrade from their beloved iPhone 12 mini, citing both sentimental value and functional challenges. After years of use and declining battery life, they face the dilemma of adapting to larger phones, which prove uncomfortable for their smaller hands. They reminisce about their strong attachment to their phone, burdened by past experiences that drove upgrades. The urgency escalates with concerns over reliability and the fear of obsolescence, leading to a conscious decision to consider an upgrade before circumstances force their hand.
With my iPhone 12 mini I could text one-handed, at a speed only previously achieved in the days of T9.
I wasn't going to be taken by surprise. I would force my own hand.
