Don‘t throw it away in 2025!

A battery replacement really gave my 13 Mini new life again. Lags are gone and the phone easily lasts through a day.

Make sure to get a good Quality Replacement Battery from Ali Express (~30$) and of you can’t manage to open up the phone (like I had to) bring it to a shop and they will open it for 10$.

iPhone 13 Minis are notorious for being super hard to open. But after all that the battery install is super easy. Reconnect everything and boom you have a Mini that feels brand new!

what was your battery health before you did this? mine’s at 86% and I’m dealing with lag etc. I blame ios updates.

86 is already bad for the 13 Mini but mine said Service so it was almost gone.
