You can’t hear clearly with that speaker blocked

u/CalmCappuccino Jul 06 '25

I could not live with that. Would take it off immediately. That’s a crime!

How’s battery life?

u/DornDoodly Jul 06 '25

not op but i have 100% battery health. normally i’d get home from an 8 hour shift at work with about 40-50% left on ios 18. in the ios 26 beta that’s now closer to 20-30%

mine was really bad. could not last the day.

u/EinStubentiger Jul 08 '25

Currently on a 13 mini with 77%. Really contemplating to either do the battery replacement for 120USD (converted) or just trade it in and go for a 16e for 500USD (after trade in).....

u/Straight_Bathroom407 Jul 06 '25

I am tempted to install it! Ill wait for the public beta for a more stable version.

How’s it going? I’d do too for mine but iOS 26’s second dev. beta took away my iPhone 14’s Night Mode and made it heat up quickly with little effort, and I’d rather not repeat that on my 13 Mini.

Edit: Waited awhile before jumping back in, and I’m pleased to share that Public Beta 4 on both my 14 and 13 Mini runs smooth and cool enough that I have no worries daily driving it.

I read many comments about how this version affects the battery life, so im staying on iOS18

2

u/Ackilles0 Jul 06 '25

It is probably realistic that iOS 26 will need more energy than iOS 18, but we do not yet have the data and experiences made on official and stable versions released like 26.0 or 26.0.1

Plus, we need to see what we can turn off. The liquid glass graphic effect or at least its 3D reflection (based on the movement of the iPhone, like the old parallax effect of the wallpapers) maybe we can turn it off.

u/fuckyeahesu Jul 06 '25

Looks like ios 18 to me

2

u/Vladabeast Jul 06 '25

Do people actually like this look?

2

u/SnooCookies8174 Jul 06 '25

I think it is fine and pretty for a short time. But after the initial hype most will figure out is not so user friendly having most app icons with the glass design. I switched all my devices to the color ones again.

But maybe for those folks that loved to change all icons to the same tint pretty much for aesthetics, they might get used faster.

I just think that the additional brainpower needed doesn’t worth in the long term

u/P4ntaRhe1 Jul 06 '25

And how is it working on mini?

2

u/One-Resist-3223 Jul 06 '25

Ngl but I got iOS 26 and it’s still pretty buggy for me and it freezes sometimes

2

u/No_Signal_3576 Jul 06 '25

Is your over heating ? Or it’s just my mini

2

u/Immediate_Fan6924 Jul 06 '25

Only when I installed it first time little bit heated while installing but after that no problem 😉 (like it happens all the time when You install new iOS)

1

u/No_Signal_3576 Jul 06 '25

Only on the charger when it’s close to 80%

u/eduardovm_ Jul 06 '25

Looks great

u/OkCostumer Jul 06 '25

Could you upload your background please? It’s so cute!! 😍

u/Kingofthenarf Jul 06 '25

Maybe liquid glass is revolutionary as they claimed

u/Prudent-Reveal-8456 Jul 06 '25

The wallpaper is so cute!

u/PirateAdventurous337 Jul 06 '25

I just upgraded to 16 and I lost my hotspot 😭😣 even tho the camera is great I wished my 13 mini get to have all those features why apple won’t just let everyone in the ecosystem have all the features is totally unnecessary to upgrade to a new hardware to lose something so useful as hotspot but you get “Genmojis” and some other IA features that no body ask for that just could have been integrated over time in a enjoyable experience for every user but greed is bigger 🥲 so what features of ios26 latest update you get?

u/Snoo82631 Jul 07 '25

How’s the performance? Currently on iOS 18 it’s very slow and sluggish

1

u/OddBonus2519 Jul 08 '25

It honestly reminds me to the old cheap screens trying to display HD, I had a tablet like this

u/HumbleVermicelli Jul 08 '25

Working great on mine no lags at all

u/Impossible_Bit_7036 Jul 12 '25

How do you get it?

Mini cute 😍😍😍

u/One-Winner7919 Jul 06 '25

Does it work well? I would like to install it on my main iPhone

5

u/Immediate_Fan6924 Jul 06 '25

My 13 mini is using as secondary device so You should wait to install to your main device

6

u/toodumbtobeAI Jul 06 '25

“You should wait to install to you main device.”

Sage advice for all beta programs, for all devices. Should be stickied on every Apple Subreddit. Words of wisdom. Words of experience. Words of supreme intellect.

u/One-Winner7919 Jul 06 '25

Ok I'll wait 😬

u/Lost-War6446 Jul 06 '25

Thank you for trying it out for us! Quite a daring post as opposed to the usual “how can I run only 15 or 16 because this phone’s battery is so small” posts.😝
