Well to be honest the 13 mini did perform well for its size up to 8hr screen on time is amazing. But it’s just not good enough for me based on my lifestyle.

[@azizs2769]

in one charge, yours got 5-6 screen on time - because it counted before the last charge, which is ok for a 2400mah battery. but I prefer to go with 13/13pro even though it's very big for me and my pocket! I'm still confused between 13/13pro.

[@keigoyu1975]

Dude you use more than 8 hours your phone Ok I know you work with technology But dude Use an iPad or something

[@owenwalker3170]

But look at what you did with smallest battery in the 13 line up . And you used made on screen time almost 9 hours on screen 1 hour off screen with a 12 hour use lol that’s pretty impressive with such a tiny battery 🔋

[@jaredb6323]

8 hours of screen-on time is excellent. This guy just has a workflow that requires heavier phone use.

[@DaviPedrosa]

hes like, recording literally his whole day lmao nobody does that

[@filip75fv]

its not 8 hrs for a full charge, he charged in the middel, so its probably about 4-5 hrs with a full charge, which is good as well dont get me wrong but it simply isnt 8 hrs.

[@plevalnatebya]

@@filip75fv with 4g it may last only 4 hours of screen play. He could last his battery life till the end with wifi. The wifi saves a lot of battery charge. In the North America or Europe it is easier to live - wifi at home and in the office. You may use 4g only between those destinations. The battery long lasting must be tested on 4g then we can see the real ability of devices.

[@calank923]

I get more than a full day of use on my 13 mini. Wake up at 6 go to work at 7 and by the time I get home at 4 I’m around 70% battery. Around 11 pm I’m still around 35-40%. I’m also not taking photos of everything I see. I do scroll through social media a lot though and make a good amount of phone calls and texts as well. For normal people who don’t constantly make videos or take 100 plus pictures a day I think it’s more than enough.

[@jaimecadorniga1496]

I got the iPhone 13 mini two days ago as an upgrade from my previous iPhone xs. I used to change my phone quite frequently, but when I bought my new iPhone 13 mini, I felt like I didn’t want to buy any phone again because, for me, this phone is the most perfect in all aspects, and I guess this could be the reason why Apple doesn’t want to continue creating a small flagship iPhone again, because people who buy such a small and powerful iPhone like this could probably not buy any future iPhones anymore. The iPhone 13 mini is ideal! The only downside is the back-glass because I think it would be better if it was made from aluminum just like the 1st generation iPhone SE.

On the upside you get a comfortable phone, one hand operation, and you forgrt you have the phone in your pocket, you will only notice it if you need it, instead of a big slab begging to be picked up to be used.

Its best phone i had ever, 5.4" is still big enough screen to write emails, posts on socials and watching YT videos or gaming. No more larger phone ever if possible. It lays in pocket perfectly no matter you're in work or on sport activities like running or biking, and completely no issues with battery working time - one day of very active up to two days when i am not using phone a lot.

When you go to the battery section in the settings it will show you screen-on-time for the last 24 hours. So if you want to see how long your battery actually lasted, go to the screen time in the settings and click on DAY, and then you will see how many hours of screen time you got today.

Just got a 13 mini myself. Coming from an X this is much handier. Using Camera + for my very effective closeup needs. It tucks away in pockets and my gear much easier.

[@elimccarthy4807]

Nice video. I'm still using an iPhone 11. I'm a very heavy user and plan to upgrade to next year's iPhones but the 13 lineup looks really enticing. My 11 is only 2 years old so I'll continue to use it until next year's lineup releases Just some general information about my "heavy use" as described above. I play a mobile game which I could spend hours on in a day dependent on work and college. I have a feature which plays the game itself. This means I leave the phone on all night playing the game while charging it. After 2 years I'm at 76% battery health and I get about 2-3 hours of screen on time. I don't mind as I plug my phone into my portable charger when I'm not using it. I also charge it when I'm driving or studying. The battery rarely becomes a nuisance for me. The reason why I bought an 11 was because the 720p screen leads to great game performance even 2 years later it's still pretty solid. When I upgrade I'd hope to be able to continue to use my 11 for that game, mostly because burn in on oleds is such a massive issue for a user like me. I would destroy an oled screen in 5-6 months if I continuously played that game on it. I love my 11 but having a 720p screen on a smartphone in 2021 is definitely starting to stick out especially compared to my friend's newer androids and iPhones. And I would for sure love an oled for everything else I use my phone for, youtube, Crunchyroll etc

I’m so pleased to hear how happy you are. The reviews seem very positive. I had an I phone 7 plus which was fantastic but I eventually went to an SE 2020. It too has been amazing.

Cheers from London

[@Justyburger]

@@bar10ml44 Thanks for the comment. I think you will find the swipe method to be easy. A good idea would be to watch a couple of KZbin tutorials on the basic functions of the phone. That's what I did. I hope you like the Mini. What colour did you order?

[@charlegoodwin982]

Can we have an update? What’s it like now?

[@Justyburger]

@@charlegoodwin982 Yes certainly. I still really love the phone, but if I am totally honest, I'm sometimes a bit disappointed with the battery life. That said, it might be because I have too many things running in the background. I need to study up on some battery saving tips. For example, my old Nokia 7 Plus can sit idle for almost a week. If I leave my 13 mini unplugged overnight, usually it's about dead in the morning. I might have a faulty battery? I'll see if I can get a battery test on the phone. The battery life is obviously one of the most important things about a phone, so this is a big one...but the size, feel, color and operation of the phone is great and I am really enjoying my move to Apple from Android. I think the biggest selling point about the mini, is the size. It is such a pleasure to deal with a small phone that slips easily into pockets. I still have the same opinion that after using loads of large phones such as Samsung notes etc, I prefer the small phone. The only thing that gets me thinking about a larger phone is the prospect of working away from home a lot, because rather than carrying an Ipad or Laptop, I would just use a Pro Max and watch Apple TV on it and surf the web on it in the evenings. That would be more tricky with the Mini, but since I'm at home a lot, I have access to a PC at home. I actually have a possible 8 month contract coming up, working away from home Mon to Fri. I'll see how I go with the Mini, but I'm open to swapping it for a Pro Max if I'm spending loads of time remotely. The extra batter will really make a difference. So my last bit of advice for those who really love the small phone, is to just go right ahead and buy it, but if you are away from home, you could use the magsafe battery that sticks to the back...or a non Apple one that also has magsafe, but a higher capacity.

I have the same phone and my battery lasts me all day, what I would recommend personally to put it on low power mode as soon as you wake up! It keeps apps from running in the background, it doesn’t update apps in the background, etc.

12 Mini user here.. Since I own an iPad 8th Gen, there's barely anything wrong with the Mini for just a casual use, at least for me.. Coming from a medium-sized Android phone, the Mini's battery is fine for me thanks to the A14 Bionic processor chip.

You really enjoy the small screen size?? It reminds me of the iPhone 5s. I was either getting this or the 13, I ended up getting the 13 and enjoying it so far. Enjoyed the video, keep up the bro!

[@jgstmx]

What a great video, came in late but man! I engaged so much with you! Great content

[@anthonysimpson6738]

On screen 8 hr, just get a MagSafe to get the extra battery required. My thoughts the mini is great for most people. Nice vid.

[@krshoreham7634]

Exactly…..the battery ‘problem’ he has is so easily solved..not sure why he’s making such a big issue of it

His videos are really good you see the effort

[@letrae199]

I recommend watching some of his old videos they are awesome

[@thenotred]

Both gimbal and handheld looks great! I do prefer the handheld as it feels more natural and the gimbal doesn't feel too artificial

[@ShevonSalmon]

True

[@pr5pr]

I'm really close to upgrading from my current 8 to 13 mini, but I read an article on the Apple forum, where people were very disappointed by the focus of the camera, and now I'm hesitant... the main reason to upgrade was that I want to take better pictures. some feedback: bro imagine how far you would get if you replace "killing time" on social medias with reading or something.. and tbh, I should also take my own advice.

[@Techxa]

Your day in the life videos are the greatest!!❤

[@John-zs6lm]

honestly imagine if they properly optimised it and gave it a big battery. that would be perfect. good small phone that can do what other phones do take some normal photos and have a good processor and normal tasks but not for professional use. but with the battery of a pro max or something. i would genuinely purchase that because i use my phone a lot and need a good battery which is why i like the pro max but i would swap if the mini had a better battery tbh

[@KorosiFam]

Awesome video dude, my 13 mini will arrive in a couple days and this video just reassured me how much I’ll appreciate the form factor. With MagSafe I feel like the battery issue can be easily solved with a MagSafe battery pack and I’m not really that much of a power user anyways. How does it work with the gimbal? I wanna get the DJI OM 4 (or the 5) but the 13 mini is not on the official recommended phone compatibility list 🤷‍♂️

[@gaunterodim8131]

If someone is struggling with the battery then here are a few tips: turn off 5g, use it in dark mode, don't use the phone at max brightness

I just upgraded from a 4s to a 12 mini, no complaints! I love it. Then again my standards would be lower with never owning crazy nice phones.

[@splish_2]

holy shit thats a crazy jump! nice choice 👍🏽

[@noxnext]

I loved the 4S! It was the best design! But how could you use it up until now? Software support for that phone must have stopped years ago!?! Congrats to your mini though, got mine in red and 256GB yesterday. ☺️

@@noxnext Right on! Ya it was a pain, I'm 17, have a job but couldn't quite justify the purchase until a week ago. Forgot how awesome it is not waiting for the camera or notes to load!
