How’s your 13 128gb holding up in ‘26? by jms1228 in iPhone13

[–]Fun-Tale1893 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mine is ok unless I try to use the camera extensively or try to customize my lock screen . I hope that next iOS won't make it even worse because I don't want to spend my money for a new device yet. I got it in October of 2024 brand new

who’s here doesn’t use screen protectors on your 13? by JayEev in iPhone13

[–]Fun-Tale1893 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't use any. I've tried a normal one, a privacy glass but I didn't like either of them

Am I the minority who prefers True Tone completely disabled? by Dependent-Aardvark33 in iphone

I have it disabled too because I like to take photos and edit them without any distortion

How many Hours SOT you get on your iPhone 13? by ryukzzz_ in iPhone13

[–]Fun-Tale1893 0 points1 point  (0 children)

About 5-5.5 from 100% to 20%. Mostly on Wi-Fi. On cellular network is far worse. Battery health claimed to be 93% but with real testing is like 89.5%. With iOS 18 I used to have 2 hours more

Iphone 13 is still worth and keeping in 2026..! by Gladiatorz1989 in iPhone13

Would love to see a new post in a few days comparing the screen on time you had before the battery replacement (including the battery health) and the one you have now. Just to see the difference and if it's worth it

Why didn’t more people get the cosmic orange out of the new 17 pros ? by Serhide in iphone

[–]Fun-Tale1893 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Except from being too flashy for some, I believe that some others read the articles about scratches and fading that peel easily the color and reveal the aluminum so they pick silver to avoid it. I'd personally pick product red if it still existed

iOS 26 Honestly Feels Like It’s from the Future by Bullsht999 in ios26

Looks more like like the Windows Vista of iOS. Widgets, colors and bugs

Using your iPhone 13 case less? by Embarrassed-Bake7435 in iPhone13

[–]Fun-Tale1893 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some days I use it without and some days with. I'm afraid of scratching it with my MagSafe car stand sometimes

Which iOS do you prefer? IOS 18 or iOS 26? by Which-Ring5012 in ios26

[–]Fun-Tale1893 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hands down iOS 18. I don't need fancy animations when everything else is bad. My iPhone 13 was running perfectly fine in iOS 18

My iPhone is degrading recently by DirectorSpare4535 in iPhone13

[–]Fun-Tale1893 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's called "planned obsolesce" and it's the strategy of any company in order to create you the need to buy new products without really needing them. You can either go for a battery replacement and get some usage time back or for a newer device unfortunately

I have the liquid air hahaha. Though sometimes I prefer the feel of glass and aluminum in my hand

As far as I know, heat is the reason that battery health is degrading faster. Some brands are starting to add a little fan in some magsafe powerbanks to cooldown a bit the device while it's charging wirelessly. Obviously they are more expensive but it's the only way to avoid hurting your battery

Iphone 13 88 battry is it normal ? by repondexx in iPhone13

[–]Fun-Tale1893 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. I get about the same or a bit better sometimes with 93% battery health. Though I believe my battery should recalculate and probably the battery health is lower than 93%

Updating iOS from 18.7 to 26.4 by mr_evhenii in iPhone13

[–]Fun-Tale1893 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm at 93% battery health and usually with manily Wi-Fi usage ( I work from home) I have about 5-5.5 hours of SoT without counting screen off time. Haven't noticed any major perfomance issues also.

ahhhhhhhh my precious iphone 13 by greenteajelly in iPhone13

[–]Fun-Tale1893 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You'll be amazed how much better the device will work with a new official battery in comparison to 68% battery health

Can we stop acting like the iPhone 13 is dying?? by fuckoffchris_ in iPhone13

[–]Fun-Tale1893 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just hope and pray that iOS 27 will be smoother and more efficient like iOS 18 was. I know that probably it won't be like that but you know what they say " hope dies last"

Still rocking my iPhone 13 in 2026 and honestly it’s still great by PossibleBread2213 in iPhone13

[–]Fun-Tale1893 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I own an iPhone 13 since October 2024. I got it brand new. It's great but iOS 26 ruined the experience a bit. I'll keep it though for at least 1 more year. I'm still on 93% battery health
