That's true, but the video quality is quite decent, which is to be expected in the Apple world of 2025.FaceTime surprised me initially with how insane the battery life drop is. It’s among the heaviest possible tasks, and it’s always been like this, regardless of the iOS version installed. It just plummets.
My phone died last night.
Even though I forgot to plug it in to the charger, I can only blame the Update!
What do u mean by “died”? What happened?
Try and use a QI charger if you haven't tried it. Could be the lightning port that's failed.Glad you were able to catch that!

If a device doesn't get a charge, surely it cannot operate.
On iPhone 11, the battery life decreased with the same usage. On LTE, with an excellent signal, the battery drains very quickly. On 18.4 it was better.Guys, how is 18.4.1? Has any of you tried it?
The only thing that slays my 13 Mini battery charge is using the screen outdoors for an extended amount of time. Other than that, any other uses leaves me plenty of charge at the EOD.Guys, how is 18.4.1? Has any of you tried it?
Since you were on iOS 17 theres prob a good bit of post maintenance going on, leave it in the charger for a while and give it a few days. You will most likely see an improvement.Well, I stupidly upgraded and now the battery will not last more than few hours. The Battery Health is 78% not sure if that makes a big difference.
Done those things even with having healthy battery. I don't use much apps - battery replacement is currently looking at £90, might consider it reluctantly. Before upgrading to iOS 18 there was no issue for sure.Since you were on iOS 17 theres prob a good bit of post maintenance going on, leave it in the charger for a while and give it a few days.

Since your health is a bit on the low side consider tweaking the device to save a bit of battery (would have been applicable no matter what OS version you were running). There is loads of advice online on tweaks. Things such as disable background services, skip push on mail, check what services that are consuming battery and so on.
And if this is a phone you will keep for a few years why not consider leaving it to an Apple support center and swap battery for a new one, will most likely give you a good boost in battery/device performance.
If you plan on keeping the 13 Mini, replace your battery. It will make a world of difference.Well, I stupidly upgraded and now the battery will not last more than few hours. The Battery Health is 78% not sure if that makes a big difference.

3-4 at best. I sold it anyway - I've gone back to iPhone 14 Pro which feels like a brick in my hands nowHow many hours exactly?
17.7 or 18.4.1 for 13mini?
I downgraded when 18.0 and I think 18.1 was kinda crap
*it’s a backup device to my 16plus if that changes the equation
17.7.1 best battery life, 18.4.1 fast discharge and overheating.17.7 or 18.4.1 for 13mini?
