I have a new 12 mini, and, so far, I am not happy with it. it seems to have haptics for everything. I think I know where to find how to shut the haptics off. The main question I have is about swiping up. It seems that I have to press really hard as I’m swiping to get the tones to sound. Also, when I am trying to close an app, I have to turn the phone upside down and shake it turn it right side up and then, sometimes, find the swipe up spot. Is this the way it is supposed to be, or, am I making it too hard?

Go to settings.
Go to accessibility.
Go to the VoiceOver preferences?
Scroll down to audio.
Go to sounds and haptics, it’s the button after the sun/haptics heading.
You should see an option and they’re called haptics.
Turn that off.
And I don’t know why you have to force swipe your finger up the screen, when I had my iPhone 12, before got stolen, all I did was put my finger up on the screen and swap slowly.

I've got a 12 mini myself and I don't have that much trouble. I'm not sure why you're having the issues you're having.

this thing is starting to behave much better, now. My friend took the screen protector off, which seems to help the swiping up difficulty. Also, I think I cured some of the haptics. Thanks for your advice.
