r/iPhone12Mini

i have been facing severe Battery issues with my 12 Mini since i installed The 1.0 Beta.

I always assumed it would get better but we are at what Beta v6? And still it's get worse and worse.

Was wondering if i am the only one facing this or is this because i replaced my original battery with an after-market one so i guess that could be the issue as well.

Lmk your thoughts and experience.

I wanted to factory reset my iPhone so that I could "get more storage" as Apple Maps was taking up 10gb+ on my 64gb iphone 12 mini! So i went ahead and bought icloud to save all my photos and create a backup. Then i factory reset

When i tried to log back in to open the backup, it asked for my email and password (Standard) i put it in and it was fine. Then it asked for 2FA of a phone number I no longer had access to (Deactivated a while ago).

I followed the recovery steps eg. putting in the full phone number, putting in the credit card details i use to buy icloud and then it asked me to put a new phonenumber (Which i did)

I am yet to be sent an email about recovery but did anyone else experience this and how long does it actually take to get it back?

I’m hearing chatter that the iPhone Ultra could be viewed as the “new” iPhone Mini since the rumored dimensions are comparable when using the phone while closed. If true, would people in this community be more open to upgrading from their 12/13 minis?

Personally, I’ll be giving it serious consideration since my 12 mini is on its last legs.

Obviously we’ll need to see & hear more once the product is officially released but is anyone else thinking along the same lines?

Uk based and looked to sell my blue 128gb 12 mini. Original battery is 82% excellent condition overall.

Wondering if any interest in here to buy before I send to a recycling place

85 percent battery, iOS 16

Won’t let me transfer from old phone unless update to 26.6 of course

Is it worth it? Or just start over and stay on 16

What do you think about it??

Please bring back the iPhone Mini!

There are so many of us who still love the smaller iPhone form factor. The Mini was comfortable to hold, easy to carry, and perfect for people who don’t want to carry a huge phone every day.

I would love to see Apple bring back the iPhone Mini with the performance and efficiency of the iPhone 17e—or, even better, give us a Mini with the technology and power of the iPhone Air.

A small phone does not have to mean a less powerful phone. Give us the same great processor, battery efficiency, display, and modern features in a compact design.

Apple, please listen to the customers who are asking for a small, powerful, premium iPhone.

Bring back the Mini—and make it powerful enough that we never feel like we compromised by choosing the smaller phone. 🍎📱

I have a 12mini which I have used for 5 years.

The battery has gotten worse and I have recently changed to an Android phone.

Does it make sense for me to change a new battery for the 12 mini? How long would I still be getting support from Apple realistically?

my 12mini battery is getting worst day by day, i m thinking of changing it but there is no apple service centre in my city so i have to depend on local stores they will probably have local brands battery but if u guys have any idea about good brands battery for 12mini please suggest
.

My main priority is battery life, currently my battery is at 82 health. It gives about 4-5 hours of screen on time with WiFi only use and 0 cellular use. Just social media apps, banking and chatting.

2 weeks ago I bought an iphone 12 mini with 89% battery health for 170€ to try iOS and the Apple ecosystem.

I love android and probably won't ever fully switch to iphone, but I like tech so I like trying things.

The 12 mini I got is in very good condition, and right now im using it as a more focused device without games of social media, just for photos, journaling, etc.

I can sell it for the same price I paid for, so I don't know if its worth keeping or not

Will 67% bh be fine for a secondary phone?? I'll be buying a 12 mini but the cheapest i saw has 67% bh (no jokes intended. its bh is actually 67 T__T). It'll be my secondary phone only since i still have my android who's still doin pretty well but it's starting to lag and hang plus the camera is pretty bad. My dad will buy me a new phone on December so im js buying a spare phone just incase my main gives up.
