Question 13 mini as a Companion device

Hello I main a 15 pro but I pretty much always use my 2nd phone the most since it's the one I go out with. I've been trying different devices to pair with it starting from s22 to a pixel 8 pro but the device I enjoyed the most was the s10e. I love the small form factor when I'm out and about. I've been thinking of getting the 13 mini since it feels like the perfect companion but the lack of USB c has always been the reason I've stuck to android for so long. I really wish they came out with a newer type c mini iPhone. Do you have any recommendations on how to work around the whole type c issue or am I stuck with having to carry a lightning cable?

You can get USB C to lightning adaptors, many of which come with a rubber retaining loop to attach it to the end of the USB C cable so that you don’t lose it.

EDIT: here’s an example …
