Overheating and quick battery drainage here too. And the phone (iph12 mini) also feels kinda buggy. Need to reset it every time something doesn’t seem right.

Would you recommend avoiding this update?

That's giving me a bit of dilemma

You guys should do a trade haha

Me, while it’s small for things like games and movies it fits into my hands and pockets pretty well. Maybe I just love compact things. But ya gotta admit the screen can sometimes be a tad bit too small

Mini doesn’t have that kind of display problem. If anything it only has battery life problem and some strange bug

You're right the battery is by no means bad, just less durable than its larger peers and slightly below what I initially expected.

Strange bugs include not being able to download an app without restarting. Before the latest update there was a bug where my phone will show "no SIM" after a short signal disruption (e.g. entering the lift) unless you restart the phone. There are a number of strange things I couldn't recall but it's all solved by restarting the phone. I can't recount the times I restarted my phone.

The reason I love mini is how it fits the pockets and my hands well. People complain about small display but I don't use it to watch videos/play games very often. The display work just nice for me.

I dont get it, can you explain in more details if you dont mind? Thanks

I only had problem when I switched from Android to iOS many years ago. Ended up having to delete all msgs, sadly.

The capitalists already made sure there’s no room for us to be smart. You might KNOW the trick, but you can’t avoid the trick. Much like the rat-race, it’s a trap yes, but you still gonna run it. iPhones are overpriced, but many will still buy it out of FOMO and a myriad of other reasons (which they’ve carefully created).

You can run away from iPhone maybe, but can you run away from smartphones in general? Yes Apple’s the worst in comparison, but are the other companies not also capitalistic?

Be can be a smart consumer to some extend but at the end of the day, we can’t really outplay capitalism 🥲

I was a light user, until i got addicted to using my iph12 mini. Now it’s kinda bothering me 😂

I got the red and never regretted for a second.

Yes mini

Hi all, my iPhone 12 Mini's battery health is at the 80%+ range and my warranty has ended. What would be the cost of a battery replacement on official Apple stores? And how many days will be iPhone need to be away from use during repair?
Thank you!

Hi all, my iPhone 12 Mini's battery health is at the 80%+ range and my warranty is ending exactly by tomorrow (I didn't know you could claim warranty for free battery replacement!).

What would be the cost of a battery replacement on an official Apple dealer store for this model? And how many days will be iPhone need to be away from use during repair?

Thank you in advance!

Thank you all for your input!
