    i recommend using a card to slide the protector up the screen as opposed to using it after. That way if you see one you can correct it immediately and limit the amount of time for random particles to contaminate the sticky side haha. I usually have pretty good luck doing that. Tho I will say I most previously used a glass protector and it self-released the bubbles really quickly.

    :100:

    My only improvement would be no notch and Touch ID integrated into the power button.

    Thanks! It actually went on really easy with no bubbles.

    I highly recommend the thin cases and screen protectors from Peel.

    Bingo bango. Truth be told, the notch has never at any point bothered me in use, but damn if this wouldn’t be killer with that exact setup. The side buttons actually feel perfectly positioned in this for me, and I have medium-sized hands.

    This is actually my first phone without a home button / with Face ID and I really like Face ID so having that without the notch would be great too. I'd love both options.

    I'm actually finding the slightly lowered power button to be my main issue. I keep just missing it.

    I create content for some of your favorite artists

    Got my max and foolishly picked transfer from iPhone rather than iCloud. Gonna be at least an hour before I can play with that sweet camera

    The thing in most surprised by with the mini so far is how loud the speaker is

    Let's hold our breath until we disappear

    My fiancée got the mini today, and I’m kind of jealous of the size now. Might go for a smaller phone next time around.

    My mini came yesterday and while the notch itself doesn’t bother me, the lack of a battery percentage because of the notch really does lol

    Since I work from home now (permanently) and sit in front of 2 screens all day, I find the small size perfect. I'm not spending a ton of time on my phone and mostly using it for quick checks and to control other things, plus music/podcasts when working out or going for a walk.

    I noticed that too, but it's an easy swipe down to get there.

    And I may be the last one to find out about this, but does everyone know about the back tap setting in the accessibility menu? You can set it so a double and/or triple tap on the back of the phone brings up different things.

    I have the double tap set to the app switcher right now because I find the swipe gesture awkward, but you can also use it for shortcuts.

    This tech 21 case is...tight. I don’t think I can take it off my phone. I’ve tried for 4 minutes and it won’t budge.

    I noticed that my Apple leather case fits much tighter than any leather case from the past.

    Think I'm finally going to take the plunge and switch to the 12 Pro after 11 years of Android. I'm so indecisive that it's been a struggle, so I just need to get over it and commit lol.

    Anyone see any great deals for Verizon phones out there that doesn't also include opening a new line or having an unlimited data plan? My family still splits 12GB of shared rollover data for our plan heh. Guessing not for a brand new phone, but hey, worth asking.
