The more important difference is, the 12 mini screen is 5.42" diagonal instead of 4" like the 5. This is maybe marketed as a benefit, but it means I can't comfortably reach the entire screen during one-handed use.
Mmm, yeah I thought they felt similar. A little different. Screen size, yeah maybe that affects the reach of the finger. Gotta keep the hands loose and clean, not get them twisted up. Thanks! :) ;p xx ;p
5: 123.8 x 58.6 x 7.6 mm
12 mini: 131.5 x 64.2 x 7.4 mm
