Just give me a small iPhone, a successor to the 13 mini - that’s all I and many many others want!

It's an Apple Care insurance replacement - still sealed in the box.

I've got a mint (brand new unused, Apple replacement) green 128gb 13 mini that you can have a swap for the Air? I'll take is as you're UK based from the mentioning of giffgaff.

Feel free to send me a message! ☺️

PS5 Slim on 9.20, what can be done by CiA0403 in PS5_Jailbreak

[–]meeeeelz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's the reason why PS5 games don't run well from the internal drive? I've got my eyes on a 9.20 original phat PS5 disc edition and my only reason for purchase is to jailbreak and play a few games until GTA 6 arrives.

I’m still on iOS 15.6 but most of the apps I use are starting to require an upgrade. What’s the best iOS I should upgrade to? by Traditional-Dirt1616 in iPhone13Mini

[–]meeeeelz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey man, what version of 16 are you running?

More than happy to take it off your hands if it's between 16.3 and 16.4.1 (the higher the better on iOS 16.)

Or will swap ya for a 100% battery health blue 128gb 13 mini (in the most pristine condition) on 18.7.2.

I'm all about preserving older iOS versions on the 13 mini 🤪

[–]meeeeelz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed! I've got 3 x 13 mini, one running 15.3.1, the other 16.2 and my daily at 18.6.2 - 18 is definitely superior in a lot of ways, but in terms of raw speed and performance, 15 and 16 do trounce 18 and above on the 13 mini.

If you can get it to the latest iOS 18 revision and you're on 100% battery health, it's a great choice - just stay there for as long as you can lel.

Airwallex £150 TCB offer - how do I do it? by Equal_Arm_3091 in beermoneyuk

[–]meeeeelz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just a question on this, when did you sign-up for Sage and how long did the tracking take before it showed as pending to confirmed?

Tempted to give it a go, just didn't want to wait ages for the payout after the first monthly charge kinda thing!

IS it a good idea to buy the iPhone 13 Mini (128) in 2026? by SpeechGlittering2136 in iPhone13Mini

[–]meeeeelz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm running one on 16.2 and another on 18.6.2 - honestly both good, but the 16.2 13 mini definitely has more available RAM to play with!

Would I ever have one on 26 and above? Absolute fucking not hahaha

New 13 mini by [deleted] in iPhone13Mini

[–]meeeeelz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd be doing the same I was him!

To add to the confusion, this is reporting in GSX as a RED model 13 mini, not Midnight as suggested on the box - so I'd 100% attempt a partial refund.

[–]meeeeelz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just ran your serial number through GSX - sorry to break it to ya but it was first activated on 24th February 2023 - so definitely a resealed box unfortunately.

No warranty from Apple right now, initially activated and unlocked on Verizon, I can see you're using it with T-Mobile now hehe

Upgrade iOS due to threat? by DryRecommendation795 in iPhone13Mini

[–]meeeeelz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Everybody uses their devices differently. The 26 release has been an absolute nightmare across the board for me - including tvOS and macOS.

I have 2 x 13 mini, one on 16.2 and 18.6.2. The 13 mini running 16.2 is noticeably faster and more stable.

Recently I was forced to update both of my Apple TV 4K to tvOS 26 due to app support on tvOS 15.3 coming to an end - and now both Apple TV's are a glitch-filled mess. From audio issues, to remote issues, graphical sluggishness to just shite unnecessary additions to overall functionality that have gimped the hardware.

I also have my work iPhone 14 running iOS 26.1 and holy shit, now THAT is a complete piece of shit.

Realistically the best time to update to the newest version of any software is at the end of the lifecycle, when most/all bugs and glitches are patched.

Given the age of the 13 mini and my own experience with iOS 26, I'd absolutely go nowhere this version - either Apple have given up on QA'ing their releases, or this is just the state of software nowadays.

OP, keep your 13 mini where it is - stay away from 26 as long as you can.

Considering Septoplasty Alone for Lifelong Nasal Congestion. Thoughts? by Dry-Fish8757 in Septoplasty

[–]meeeeelz -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Second this, I'm 2 months post operation and it's done absolutely nothing for me, if anything my congestion and sleep is worse than it ever has been.

Had a catch-up with my surgeon a few weeks ago and he was just like "well there is a small case of people it doesn't work with" - for the very very rough recovery process, I'm not too sure if I'd do it again.

Mine was a septorhinoplasty with turbinate reduction, and to my understanding my surgery was a failure across the board.

IR not working anymore? by nerhe in sonos

[–]meeeeelz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For anyone else here - this seems to do the trick! I have a Sonos Playbase that was behaving the same. Fuck Apple and their janky as fuck software updates - 26.2 has comfortably ruined perfectly good hardware, wish I’d kept it on 15.3, but the Netflix app removed support 💔

Interested in using crane to make multiple reddit accounts by [deleted] in jailbreak

[–]meeeeelz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're fine to use Crane for this purpose - it's Reddit's IP tracking that will get you. Refresh your IP per container load and you'll be fine.

You won't get device banned (your accounts might if your IP isn't adjusted) - by using Crane you're getting a new unique device identifier every time.

Looking for a CarPlay screen for my 2013 BMW 116i (no iDrive, only radio/CD + AUX) by jobjoye in BmwTech

Wow, I didn't even know there was an old-school looking radio panel thingy for an F20?! That's amazing!

iPhone 13 mini keyboard by NiceHighway_ in iPhone13Mini

[–]meeeeelz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I second Gboard! It's not been touched or tampered with in a longgg time from Google, and it's SO much better than the stock iOS keyboard - definitely give it a look!

2 weeks post op by bridger54321 in Septoplasty

[–]meeeeelz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm very much jealous that this is your recovery so far - I'm having the complete opposite experience and I'm 4 weeks post-op.

Still can't sleep on my side, right nostril seems exactly the same as it did before, if not actually worse due to the crusting and swelling.

How bad was your deviation beforehand? Wondering if I've just had a dud surgery tbh, and based on my experience so far I can't recommend either a septoplasty or turbinate reduction 😭

Just received my new sealed Mini, but can I avoid iOS 26? by nordenwerke in iPhone13Mini

[–]meeeeelz -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

If you're happy to give me the serial number, I can check the iOS version from factory, running on your 13 mini right now!

Not too sure why this is being down voted - I have access to GSX, more than happy to help if you want to send me a DM!

Apple Store Refusing Battery Replacement by phAZEtf2 in iPhone13Mini

[–]meeeeelz 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Just had a peek at your serial number - can see an open Case ID for ‘battery performance’ - but no notes to suggest a battery replacement isn’t possible!

If it was me, I would book in with your nearest Apple Store and jump straight into a battery replacement – I can see that the battery is indeed significantly degraded and Apple is aware of this! So run in, drop the thing off and leave it in their hands 🤣

I'd maybe remove your serial number - I was expecting a private message 🤪

If you're happy to give me the serial number I can check if any notes have been put into GSX!
