I’ve had an iPhone 12 mini since launch and the battery life has become pretty abysmal. However, I’m reluctant to replace it with a newer, bigger model. My battery health is sitting at 86%, which really doesn’t sound that bad, but I feel like the actual battery life is way worse than when I bought it. Has anyone replaced their battery around this percentage, and did it give a noticeable boost?
I replaced the battery for an iPhone 6s after 3 years (75%) and it lasted another 3 years. I took it to an Apple Store.
I also purchased a kit from ifixit and replaced the battery on my daughter’s 6s. Wasn’t too difficult, but I do wish it was easier. Her phone lasted about 5 years.
oh god apple products are insanely crappy in terms of engineering. everyone knows they are designed to be impossible to fix, forcing you to pay extortionate prices back to that greedy shit company Apple. The sooner this murderous deathmonger is extirpated, the better for humanity. What causes inflation? APPLE. What causes misery and suffering for humanity? APPLE (try hunting for a setting on Apple, or setting up cloud backups. Utterly crap and easily wastes half your day without doing anything. Then if you try Apple support, they act as if they are right, and pretend what is crap is not crap. Psychologically abusive gaslighting partner. Same with Windows btw.)
omg is this an apple lemmy sub? sry but u guys were a joke, but now it’s no longer funny. why are you even supporting such colossally destructive products?
