iPhone 13 mini Specifically 13 mini users who upgraded to iOS26

[bevsb2]

My mini 12 & 13 are doing fine on 26.0.1. The mini 12 is my backup phone and I purchased the mini 13 on the last day available just to have it for the future. I don't use it (only opened to update it and keep battery around 30-50%).
Battery capacity for the 12 is 92% and the 13 is at 100%. My main phone was the 16 Pro and now the Air. I haven't noticed battery drain on the 12, but it gets little use and no idea on the 13. I love the minis, but at my age really prefer to use the larger screen on the Pro and the Air.

My primary work phone is a 13 mini on 26.0.1. Works great.

So am wondering, those 13 Mini users that have upgraded from iOS 18 to iOS 26,

are you happy with your move?

I'm wondering about major shifts in battery life and keyboard lag. But feel free to comment on the UI also.

Cheers.

I updated my 13 mini to iOS 26 a few days ago and am not liking it. I have not noticed a difference in battery life, but I have noticed my phone is freezing a lot.

Do you use a lot of apps or just take calls? I find that my 13 mini has been freezing a lot and glitching since the upgrade.
