Before you decide you're not interested in the 13 Pro because you feel you 
don't need the better camera, keep in mind that along with the better camera on 
the 13 Pro, comes  LIDAR, which is the ability to use the camera to judge 
distance. The feature can be very helpful for blind envision impaired users. 
While apps that use  LIDAR  are somewhat limited right now, some of the 
features are very helpful. One of the useful features of LIDAR is the ability 
to help you with social distancing. The feature is built-in to the  Magnifier  
app, and is is easily enabled from the home screen or even the lock screen 
using a four finger triple tap.
Two other apps I can think of off the top of my head that currently use LIDAR, 
are Microsoft Seeing AI, and SuperSense.

Upgrading from my iPhone XR, I’m narrowing things down between the iPhone 13 
and the 13 mini. I don’t need any of the features of the 13 Pro as it seems 
mostly camera enriched. And, I took a look at the iPhone SE third generation 
and it’s just too far of a step backward even though the price is right. So, 
between the 13 and a 13 minute I’m wondering what my real impacts would be. I’m 
used to the form factor of the 10 hour, similar to the 13, but I’m wondering 
about the 13 mini. What am I giving up exactly by moving to the mini other than 
form factor. I know that speaker fidelity will take a hit and the battery life 
is a little less, but other than that they seem to be about the same  product. 
Any thoughts? I’m about to pull the trigger and this is what it’s come down to 
for final decisions.
