I stuck with the 12 mini, vs going to another SE (had SE for years). I miss the Touch ID. A lot. Having to look at something, then swipe up, then ... do other stuff to get back to the home screen, instead of literally just putting my thumb on a button the pressing it... it's so much more convenience. Of course, you can just turn off the face stuff altogether, but you lose some security (and IIRC, some of payment stuff won't work?)
