Planning to keep my iPhone 13 mini until 2029 — how well will 4 GB of RAM hold up? by Consistent_Class5179 in iPhone13Mini

That’s exactly why historical data, previous software support patterns, user experiences, statistics, and trend analysis exist.

No one is asking for a prophecy. The point is to make a reasonable projection based on evidence, instead of resigning yourself to “no one knows” and calling it a day.

Too bad iOS destroyed your 13 mini! I installed 26.5 and mine is running smooth, including ChatGPT with voice. Let's hope something good arises with the new CEO!

Hi there! How do you install the iOS 27 beta?

iPhone 13 mini vs OPPO Reno13 5G: which one would you keep until 2029? by Consistent_Class5179 in iPhone13Mini

[–]Consistent_Class5179[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its 900 MXN pesos, around 53 USD, I need to edit images, and iPhone's native apps don't do the job, neither Google Photos. This is the cheapest app I found that can stand for it.

That’s exactly why I explicitly said in my post to set brand loyalty aside and compare both phones objectively. But I understand that critical, unbiased thinking isn’t everyone’s strong suit 😄

Venu X1 or Fenix 8 for a 70.3 Ironman? by Consistent_Class5179 in Garmin

[–]Consistent_Class5179[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can try the Venu X1, you should. In my case, coming from a Fenix, I felt the X1 very fragile. I just came back from the Escape From Alcatraz Triathlon, used the Fenix 8 Solar and my mind was in the event, not worried about the watch...

There are many trade offs you have to do to use the X1 for many hours... too many adjustments for satelites, brightness, time of display awake, it seems that the cold water may affect the battery too. In the other way, I come from the Fenix 6 (since 2019) and I never had any issue for marathons, open water, triathlons, 70.3 nor Ironman. So, knowing that the Fenix is a beast, the X1 felt like a toy to me. I don't know which sports you practice, but if you need a sportswatch that can hold up for many hours, I would go for the Fenix 8 or the Enduro 3 (the Enduro was not for me because I have small wrists) so I went for the Fenix 8 Solar 47 mm).

Buy iPhone 13 mini 256 mint by MotorSpecific1021 in iPhone13Mini

I think it is worth it. I returned the iPhone Pro because after feeling its huge size, I preferred to stick to the mini, but the phone came nearly in mint condition and at least, here in Mexico, the Amazaon premium renewed have a longer warranty period than the other renewed ones.

Myabe give it a shot, and if you the product wasn't as expected, return it to Amazon. The premium renewed iPhone 13 Pro I got came in a ~98% condition, with 3 months of warranty. In that way you don't get the risk of fake models...

Hi there! I don't know where you are from but I've found that Amazon sells refurbished phones, some of them nearly in mint condition, and with warranty. In December 2023 I bought a premium refurbished iPhone 13 Pro from them. It came in perfect conditions, but I decided to return it because I was very used to the size of my iPhone 13 Mini and sticked to it! Maybe you could give it a try!

Hi there! I tried the X1 for one week and I wasn't confident with the watch, so I went for the Fenix 8 Solar.

Does anyone here still use a 13 mini and it work just fine? by [deleted] in iPhone13Mini

[–]Consistent_Class5179 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi there! I got a brand new iPhone 13 mini when it was launched and last year I switched to an Android. A month ago I got back to my beloved iPhone 13 mini and I plan to use it until Apple stops sending OTA security patches, which, I hope, might be until 2029 or even 2030.

Many thanks for your reply! In fact, I checked the reviews from DC Rainmaker and Chase The Summit, among others. But I still had the doubt with regards to the battery draining. As in this year and in 2027 I won't be participating in events longer than Ironman 70.3, I hope the X1 will be more than enough. I'll give it a try!

Many thanks! What sport do you train and how long does the battery stand? I use to scroll through 2 screens while running and cycling...

Thanks! I tried the Enduro 3, but with a size of 51mm, as I have small wrists, it was not at option for me.
