I think this is the first time you actually did an real day of usage which might be somewhat realistic. And I dig it. Someone who buys the mini probably won’t use the camera for like more than 15 minutes a day.

Hi, you asked for some tips. Here's mine. First I decided to use my 13 Mini as…a phone! Yes, I do some other things but I took off all games and most of the productivity apps since I have no plans on writing a book or produce a Keynote presentation or Spreadsheet, etc. If I want to play games I have an Xbox Series S and 70” tv for that not to mention an iPad Mini 6. So, what are my tips? Low Power mode. You can always turn it off if necessary, but the A15 is so powerful that even in Low Power mode, performance is not an issue. I do something’s like check on my bank balance, credit cards, do an occasional text, check emails (delete/respond, forward, etc), check the weather as needed., in short, small everyday tasks. So, my usage is kept to a minimum. As a result, I usually have about 60% or higher at the end of the day. Low Power actually works on the 13 Mini and stretches my charge and then some. I realise I'm probably not a typical user (I'm 71 and I don’t 'live' on my phone. For me it’s main use is practical and for communications). As I've indicated I have other tech for entertainment and other uses. I like the size, I have 100GBs of storage out of 128 free. My Apps are few but what I need or want at the ready. For me, the 13 Mini is the best iPhone of the offering this time around. Apple addressed the battery issue and has given us the best small iPhone possible at this time. Everyone is going huge in their screen sizes, it won’t be long before guys will have have a bag just for their phones. I like being able to put my 13M in my front jeans pocket! As soon as the Apple Watch doesn’t need an iPhone, I may just have an Apple Watch for phone usage, I'm close to it now!
thanks for the input sir. I really needed an input from someone who actually used their phone as a... damn PHONE. have you tried the dark mode along with the low power mode? oh Btw do you remember the moon landings sir? what were they like?
@@sidv4615 Hi! Yes, I keep my iPhone on Dark Mode as it saves battery and screen life. As for the Moon landings, it was an exciting time. However, nothing beats the first one. I was 19 and had graduated high school. The movie 2001: a space odyssey had come out but I hadn’t seen it. The landing was in July but that Fall after I started college, I finally had a chance to see the movie and something wonderful occurred. Watching the men walking on the Moon scene, I realised that was no longer fiction for just a few months earlier I had witnessed 2 Americans doing it for real! That was thrilling as I remember watching Alan Shepard do the first sub orbital flight in 1961 when I was 11 and in 8 years we went from his short flight to the Moon! I had my Dad get me up so I could watch the launches which were always very early. It still amazes me that what was so futuristic to me is now just history to my grandson… 😐 Imagine people getting excited about paying $100K+ to do a sub orbital flight! I really thought that by now going to the Moon would be more common place.

1. The screen time actually drain battery too. Turn of Screen time completely and use the Battery tab to track your usage is more better. 2. Turn on Low power mode when playing game. It has been proven it will save battery by a lot (nothing affect except battery drain)
Honestly I tested the 13 Pro and 13 Pro Max for a week before sending them both back for a 13 mini 512gb. The battery test I did between the 13 mini and 13 Pro were so close I wondered why the 13 Pro was so heavy? It was only within 3% difference between tasking the 13 Pro vs the 13 mini. This was streaming Disney+ for 3 hours and checking email, streaming Spotify, etc… At the end of the day the 13 mini was at 40% and the 13 Pro was at 48%. This only makes the 13 mini look so much more impressive since it’s size and weight is a fraction to the 13 Pro at 204 grams.

Battery Saving Tips. Turn off BlueTooth. Turn of Location Services. Turn off Backround Refresh. Turn own lower power mode and leave it on 24/7. Enable dark mode.
I have a samsung a22 that gives 12 hr+ screen on tieme. I'll use the smsung for entertainment and iphone 13 mini for work and photography. It should be fine. Thanks for the review man 🙂🙂
My Iphone 13 mini lasts a full day. I can use GPS like Strava, spotify with bluetooth earphones connected and cycle 2 hours. Later use 1.5h of youtube on good brightness and bluetooth earphones, some messager FB for another 50 minutes and battery life when I get back home after 12 hours dropped from 90 to 30%. Not too bad :D
i just did it and dont regreat it, never like big phones anyway , and my 12 feel too big now. i go to work around 8 AM whit 100% charge and comeback around 9PM and still have like 40% batterie and the wifi is on at work all day.
You will probably get just as good or better battery life since every battery test I have seen has shown that the 13mini gets about the same battery life as the normal 12
Long story short. If you need to use your phone for more than five hours or are not wanting to plug your phone into a power source throughout the day, this phone is not for you. It’s really that simple. If you rarely use your phone and find yourself with 50% or more battery at the end of the day, than this phone is for you. If you don’t watch RUclips, play games, go on long walks where you are playing mobile games like Pokémon go, listening to podcasts, listening to music, then you don’t need this phone. If you want to do any of those things on a fairly consistent basis without the need to be near a power source I get the new promax every single year and I’m typing this out on my new iPhone 13 Pro Max. Just my preference.
Exactly why I use my iPhone 13 Pro Max. The battery is an absolute dishonest thing, even with 120 Hz display. They with the camera improvements, they absolutely nailed this phone. I get 10+ hours of battery life doing high energy things on the phone all day long without one’s thinking about the battery. 120 Hz displays buttery smooth and is worth the hype. I like 5G and utilize it daily but I can understand why others might not care. And this camera is absolutely amazing. I really couldn’t imagine using mini myself but that’s just my opinion that works for you that’s great
I have the iPhone 12 mini and I’ve had this phone for almost 2 years now. When I decided to move to a smaller phone with a smaller battery I knew that a compromise how do you made. So I made sure I had battery packs to charge if necessary in the middle of the day or charging cable in my work truck or charging cable in my car. Having a small phone does have its drawbacks but if you accommodate yourself A small phone will work just fine nowadays people have battery packs to charge or a place to plug into it’s not like it was 10 years ago. The next iPhone I get will be the iPhone 13 mini because it’s the last of a small phone breed. So I will enjoy the small form factor for a few more years before I am forced to unfortunately get a bigger phone because these phones won’t last forever! From your video it looks like you got a good amount of time from the 13 mini great video keep it up.
I think you CAN listen to music or podcasts with minimal battery usage if you download it to your phone. I listen to podcasts overnight and I only used 6% in 8 hrs of usage.
I disagree with most tips If you want to sacrifice most things such as listening to music, you might as well put your Iphone into airplane mode and don't touch it during the whole day. That will definitely save battery life.
For me, this phone might give me 11-13 hrs of S.O.T , since I never used yt on a phone, don't like playing games, only 88 pics in my gallery, since 2019 (so camera usage eliminated), switch off my wifi + cellular data + Bluetooth since I don't like it switched on the whole time i do use Instagram for an hour in total (whole day), WhatsApp -20 mins, nd some other apps for under 5 mins. this is great for me.. I ordered this phone and would come very soon
Most slept on battery saving tip of all time that we all always forget about is “turning off roaming” 😭 it’s on by default on all phones it’s a trap especially if you don’t travel all the time or have a traveling phone plan anyways
@@chikinpasta6047 Depend on how you use it. If you're not constantly using it for media use, then get the 11. If you're social media, then the 13 mini can last. I'm currently running the 13.5.3 beta iOS, and I haven't had to run to a charger at the end of the day. I use mine as a dashboard camera too. So it's solid for the battery.
My air tag using 20% of my iPhone 12 battery according to battery setting. WTF I never knew it would use so much battery. If I knew that I would not of gotten an air tag
using a 5w charger will help in keep your battery health to 100 for longer time as compared to using 20w charger...simply because because fast charge produce more heat and more heat destroy the cell bind molecules hence degrades battery storage capacity.
Hello bro, been watching your videos and its very informative. Just a question, I rember that u also made a video about google pixel 5 which u said that that phone has still 50% left during the day. Does your usage that day comparable to this? Does that mean that iphone 13 mini has bad battery life? Ur anwer will much be appreciated in my decision in purchasing a mobile. Tnx a lot and more powers to your channel. New Subscriber here. 🥰
Background app refresh is one of the main battery killers. I turn it off as soon as I got a new iphone. I've never seen it beneficial and t just makes the phone run tasks that are not needed.
Awesome video! I just got my iPhone 13 mini and going through and changing any settings to improve battery life and this helped. Also like the day in the life of the iPhone 13 mini to show the kind of screen on time to expect. Love your videos.
background app refresh off location off if no need to use it and push mail manual thats what i do and when i get to 50 percent i slap a battery pack and normal to heavy task no problem. use wifi if available. mobile data eats battery even on pro max. got 13mini sitting 95% after almost 9months. and Avoid gaming if possible coz even apple said it isnt built for gaming. thank me after your battery stays healthy
to me, this is probably what will stop me from getting a mini device. a phone is meant to be a tool that assists you but going thru all the trouble just to save battery kinda defeats the purpose to me at least.
I know it varies from person to person, but the mini battery is comparable to the iPhone 12 from last year. Honestly, I think the everyday person could use a mini without scrambling to conserve their batteries. Personally, I don’t do anything too intensive on my phone, I scroll social media, stream music, etc. and my phone lasts me the whole day. Tech RUclipsrs on the other hand use their phones to the max. I have a XR, 13 Mini has a better battery than my current phone. I’ll upgrade to the Mini and likely have a better experience.
Funny, he says to leave the camera app and close it after you’re done using it when mine has been open for over two years I have never closed it and my phone still last 10+ hours and I have a 14 promax and I’ve never once noticed the battery draining just because the cameras open false statement I even have a 13 mini phone as the replacement to my iPod touch 7 with the camera open at all times and the battery only drink one percent after 16 hours he’s making it sound like it trains 10+ percent if you’ve had it open for 1 minute not 16 hours lol
Thanks, good video. I guess your typical day and use is not the same as most people’s. If we say most people wake up 2-3 hours later than you and don’t do as much RUclips and gaming in an average day, the phone probably lasts quite a bit longer. Appreciate you are showing an authentic day in your life and that’s fine. Would like you to have just used the phone completely authentically without cutting back on anything but with a few power saving tactics enabled e.g. 4g, dark mode, no background app refresh to see how long it lasted without purposefully cutting back on certain apps e.g. spotify, actively trying to make it last longer.
I bought 13 mini . Best SMALL PHONE. VERY ANNOYED apple does not include WALL CHARGER 🔌. Wtf. I have to spend EXTRA MONEY AT THE PHONE shop. 😡 Very pissed off . 👎🏾👎🏻 apple please include type -c -charger 🔌 next time 💩🚽
Some features in video is important for me.. App refresh for example, maybe you try, only dark mode? How much battery life is saving, vs "normal" light mode? 20-30%+? Or not that much?
What saves a lot more power is… mainly using iPad and iPod and using the phone just for phone and camera. Go ahead and use power intensive camera settings. Pod casts, use your iPod. Watch media or play games, use the iPad or other tablet.
This man uses all the apps and gadgets of his phone? Haha 5 hours of music? Keep checking the weather during the day? That's nos realistic, 1 hour on screen while lifting? Watching a RUclips video with your pc in front of you? Using RUclips to listen music while using the computer too? And only half of the video watched, this is not realistic.

@@CoffeeXmusic.What about camera , it is good for photography ?. Is it worth for us ? I won't to buy " iphone13 mini " that's why I m asking all this questions to you😊
Hi another battery saving tips don’t use Bluetooth headphones. I know Apple loves us to use their Bluetooth headphones but that drains the battery go ahead and either buy the headphone adapter so you can plug-in regular old headphone, jack headphones, or go out and buy the lightning headphones like I did. This tip would save you. You can still listen to music in the background but you won’t be draining your battery because Apple forces you to use Bluetooth.
Having a phone with the brightness turned up all the way for most of the day is really not good especially if you use your phone a lot. It will strain the eyes way more then just looking at the sun.
Great tips! Thank you for them. I'm not a young 'power user' like you are so my battery life is actually pretty damn good. I recently got a *gorgeous* iPhone 13 mini ('midnight'-color) *FOR FREE* !!! US-based carrier 'Verizon' is literally giving them away for simply adding a new line to someone's existing family plan! Best iPhone of them all in my humble opinion. I don't want those *HUGE* models that are a real pain to hold and manipulate.
Batteri saving tip: dont use ur phone
I noticed that again and again. However, only switching it off ensures that no more battery is used.
I think this is the first time you actually did an real day of usage which might be somewhat realistic. And I dig it. Someone who buys the mini probably won’t use the camera for like more than 15 minutes a day.

Battery Saving Tips. Turn off BlueTooth. Turn of Location Services. Turn off Backround Refresh. Turn own lower power mode and leave it on 24/7. Enable dark mode.
Don’t turn of Bluetooth it makes zero difference . Maybe 1 percent
I have a samsung a22 that gives 12 hr+ screen on tieme. I'll use the smsung for entertainment and iphone 13 mini for work and photography. It should be fine. Thanks for the review man 🙂🙂
Pretty sure you’ve convinced me more than anyone else to get a 13 mini. 助かりました。ありがとー！
My Iphone 13 mini lasts a full day. I can use GPS like Strava, spotify with bluetooth earphones connected and cycle 2 hours. Later use 1.5h of youtube on good brightness and bluetooth earphones, some messager FB for another 50 minutes and battery life when I get back home after 12 hours dropped from 90 to 30%. Not too bad :D
Me too. I've never run out of battery before it's time to charge it at night.
Switch on and off the Bluetooth only when needed
Best battery saving tip:
"Don't use your iPhone"
You're welcome!
I'm getting even more convinced to switch my regular 12 with 13 mini. Thanks for the tips!
i just did it and dont regreat it, never like big phones anyway , and my 12 feel too big now. i go to work around 8 AM whit 100% charge and comeback around 9PM and still have like 40% batterie and the wifi is on at work all day.
You will probably get just as good or better battery life since every battery test I have seen has shown that the 13mini gets about the same battery life as the normal 12
You won’t regret it!
Not really worth it imo
@@xces_fn why not
Bro basically is saying don’t use your phone💀
Long story short. If you need to use your phone for more than five hours or are not wanting to plug your phone into a power source throughout the day, this phone is not for you. It’s really that simple. If you rarely use your phone and find yourself with 50% or more battery at the end of the day, than this phone is for you. If you don’t watch RUclips, play games, go on long walks where you are playing mobile games like Pokémon go, listening to podcasts, listening to music, then you don’t need this phone. If you want to do any of those things on a fairly consistent basis without the need to be near a power source I get the new promax every single year and I’m typing this out on my new iPhone 13 Pro Max. Just my preference.
This video is really funny when you keep emphasising saving battery. Sounds pretty “sarcastic” hahahahah. Nice one.
Adaptive refresh rate on mini/13 would make the battery so much better (assuming they keep the 60 hz refresh rate)
Exactly why I use my iPhone 13 Pro Max. The battery is an absolute dishonest thing, even with 120 Hz display. They with the camera improvements, they absolutely nailed this phone. I get 10+ hours of battery life doing high energy things on the phone all day long without one’s thinking about the battery. 120 Hz displays buttery smooth and is worth the hype. I like 5G and utilize it daily but I can understand why others might not care. And this camera is absolutely amazing. I really couldn’t imagine using mini myself but that’s just my opinion that works for you that’s great
All that you said plus this:
Turn off notifications for everything (but the 2 or 3 messaging apps that you use regularly).
I have the iPhone 12 mini and I’ve had this phone for almost 2 years now. When I decided to move to a smaller phone with a smaller battery I knew that a compromise how do you made. So I made sure I had battery packs to charge if necessary in the middle of the day or charging cable in my work truck or charging cable in my car. Having a small phone does have its drawbacks but if you accommodate yourself A small phone will work just fine nowadays people have battery packs to charge or a place to plug into it’s not like it was 10 years ago. The next iPhone I get will be the iPhone 13 mini because it’s the last of a small phone breed. So I will enjoy the small form factor for a few more years before I am forced to unfortunately get a bigger phone because these phones won’t last forever! From your video it looks like you got a good amount of time from the 13 mini great video keep it up.
Mine after 10h is 30% and I am power user.I don’t use battery saving techniques.
4:30 wtf would you wacht youtube on a phone when you have 2 giant screens in front of you?
makes sense to use the phone (other than the testing purposes) since he sits too close to the bigger screens..
I think you CAN listen to music or podcasts with minimal battery usage if you download it to your phone. I listen to podcasts overnight and I only used 6% in 8 hrs of usage.
This is the way...
Streaming over 4G or 5G drains the battery like hell
I disagree with most tips
If you want to sacrifice most things such as listening to music, you might as well put your Iphone into airplane mode and don't touch it during the whole day. That will definitely save battery life.
For me, this phone might give me 11-13 hrs of S.O.T , since I never used yt on a phone, don't like playing games, only 88 pics in my gallery, since 2019 (so camera usage eliminated), switch off my wifi + cellular data + Bluetooth since I don't like it switched on the whole time
i do use Instagram for an hour in total (whole day), WhatsApp -20 mins, nd some other apps for under 5 mins.
this is great for me.. I ordered this phone and would come very soon
Pro tip : When you play youtube audio just open in brower and destop mode to play it in screen of background
Most slept on battery saving tip of all time that we all always forget about is “turning off roaming” 😭 it’s on by default on all phones it’s a trap especially if you don’t travel all the time or have a traveling phone plan anyways
That is weird. My day I had on 5hrs on screen and still had 56% in the battery.
is it worth it to buy iphone 13 mini? because I'm kinda torn between iphone 11 and 13 mini because of the battery life...
@@chikinpasta6047 Depend on how you use it. If you're not constantly using it for media use, then get the 11. If you're social media, then the 13 mini can last.
I'm currently running the 13.5.3 beta iOS, and I haven't had to run to a charger at the end of the day. I use mine as a dashboard camera too. So it's solid for the battery.
@@elchamber thanks for the advice I think I'll be getting the 13 mini
Iphone mini13 Midnight + all black case + Dark Mode + OLED screen = boldest stealthy device.
No way. Why is it that apple products are so expensive yet they are so fragile.. battery always sucks
Was that kimchi deopbab 김치덥밥 for lunch?
My air tag using 20% of my iPhone 12 battery according to battery setting. WTF I never knew it would use so much battery. If I knew that I would not of gotten an air tag
where do you see it? i don't have my airtag in my battery settings
Air tags are the worst invention
for my use my 13 mini lasts 2 days long in a single charge
for my use 13 mini lasts 4 days long
@@pj3558 that is so cool
I'm getting convinced in replacing my iPhone 8 Plus with the iPhone 13 mini lol
put on low power mode 24/7
using a 5w charger will help in keep your battery health to 100 for longer time as compared to using 20w charger...simply because because fast charge produce more heat and more heat destroy the cell bind molecules hence degrades battery storage capacity.
Hello bro, been watching your videos and its very informative. Just a question, I rember that u also made a video about google pixel 5 which u said that that phone has still 50% left during the day. Does your usage that day comparable to this? Does that mean that iphone 13 mini has bad battery life? Ur anwer will much be appreciated in my decision in purchasing a mobile. Tnx a lot and more powers to your channel.
New Subscriber here. 🥰
Background app refresh is one of the main battery killers. I turn it off as soon as I got a new iphone. I've never seen it beneficial and t just makes the phone run tasks that are not needed.
Awesome video! I just got my iPhone 13 mini and going through and changing any settings to improve battery life and this helped. Also like the day in the life of the iPhone 13 mini to show the kind of screen on time to expect. Love your videos.
background app refresh off location off if no need to use it and push mail manual thats what i do and when i get to 50 percent i slap a battery pack and normal to heavy task no problem. use wifi if available. mobile data eats battery even on pro max. got 13mini sitting 95% after almost 9months. and Avoid gaming if possible coz even apple said it isnt built for gaming. thank me after your battery stays healthy
to me, this is probably what will stop me from getting a mini device. a phone is meant to be a tool that assists you but going thru all the trouble just to save battery kinda defeats the purpose to me at least.
Agreed
I know it varies from person to person, but the mini battery is comparable to the iPhone 12 from last year. Honestly, I think the everyday person could use a mini without scrambling to conserve their batteries. Personally, I don’t do anything too intensive on my phone, I scroll social media, stream music, etc. and my phone lasts me the whole day. Tech RUclipsrs on the other hand use their phones to the max. I have a XR, 13 Mini has a better battery than my current phone. I’ll upgrade to the Mini and likely have a better experience.
Small Battery = Less Capacity
Don’t use a small phone like it’s a large phone and you’ll have little to no issues
Funny, he says to leave the camera app and close it after you’re done using it when mine has been open for over two years I have never closed it and my phone still last 10+ hours and I have a 14 promax and I’ve never once noticed the battery draining just because the cameras open false statement I even have a 13 mini phone as the replacement to my iPod touch 7 with the camera open at all times and the battery only drink one percent after 16 hours he’s making it sound like it trains 10+ percent if you’ve had it open for 1 minute not 16 hours lol
Thanks, good video. I guess your typical day and use is not the same as most people’s. If we say most people wake up 2-3 hours later than you and don’t do as much RUclips and gaming in an average day, the phone probably lasts quite a bit longer. Appreciate you are showing an authentic day in your life and that’s fine. Would like you to have just used the phone completely authentically without cutting back on anything but with a few power saving tactics enabled e.g. 4g, dark mode, no background app refresh to see how long it lasted without purposefully cutting back on certain apps e.g. spotify, actively trying to make it last longer.
Lovely video and tips. Just curious, did you forget to turn on the low battery mode or is there a thought behind it?
So sad you children only use streaming services for listening to music. Download the music onto your phone and the battery damage is minimal
I literally have over 100 apps open in the background and phone has been on for six hours and I am at 60%
First with 100 others
Please do the same with iPhone 12 mini.
same applies to 12 mini. So just turn off 5g, location, auto brightness and background refresh in most apps.
One battery saving tip is turning off 5G
I bought 13 mini . Best SMALL PHONE. VERY ANNOYED apple does not include WALL CHARGER 🔌. Wtf. I have to spend EXTRA MONEY AT THE PHONE shop. 😡
Very pissed off . 👎🏾👎🏻 apple please include type -c -charger 🔌 next time 💩🚽
Some features in video is important for me.. App refresh for example, maybe you try, only dark mode? How much battery life is saving, vs "normal" light mode? 20-30%+? Or not that much?
I seriously doubt that closing the camera app is needed. If it is not open and actually in use it should not affect the battery at all.
Let’s try this method with the iPhone 12 mini please
Good way to start my Sunday morning 🙌🏻
Great vidoes man
Keepem coming
i eat lunch at 3 p.m
I’m not buying a phone to not use 75% of what it’s doing.
do you still use the iphone 13 mini? what is its battery health nowaday
May I know what’s the theme you are using? Really nice.
First ❤ 💙
Wow! This gives a hope for normal usage of the phone! All the tips are not new, but my everyday life :)
Ya you can save battery (shit load of battery ) BY installing AOSP ROM
ON YOUR DEVICE/ PHONE
BUT NO IPHONE 💩 i 🐏 🤣🤣🤣💩
🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂🤣😁😂😁🤣🤣
Am use iPhone 13 mini
What saves a lot more power is… mainly using iPad and iPod and using the phone just for phone and camera. Go ahead and use power intensive camera settings. Pod casts, use your iPod. Watch media or play games, use the iPad or other tablet.
Set your dark mode to Sun down till Sun Up..
This man uses all the apps and gadgets of his phone? Haha 5 hours of music? Keep checking the weather during the day? That's nos realistic, 1 hour on screen while lifting? Watching a RUclips video with your pc in front of you? Using RUclips to listen music while using the computer too? And only half of the video watched, this is not realistic.
Nice

Wtf are you doing on your phone... my screen on is 8 hours..watching yt instagram tik tok listening music when I am in gym.
Thanks really great guide..any thoughts on cases, etc? So many around!
used to get around 6 hours of screen when i had one. I love this phone. Had to sell it due to money issues. Honestly, i really regret selling it. Hope to get one back...
Great content and the music is 🔥very helpful video as I got my iPhone 13 mini last month
Just bought mine…tbh for the light users this phone can last longer than you think….for social media and location turn on…it’s quite nice
Love your videos. Just got mine today starlight.
How is battery life bro/sister.
@@mithunbl797 not too bad. It can last me entire day with normal usage. It’s pretty close to iPhone 12
@@CoffeeXmusic.What about camera , it is good for photography ?.
Is it worth for us ?
I won't to buy " iphone13 mini " that's why I m asking all this questions to you😊
@@mithunbl797 I think it’s pretty good. I have been using it for awhile and really love it. If you like a smaller phone, then this one is perfect.
@@CoffeeXmusic. Yes , I really like a smaller phones.Thank you so much for sharing this information 💫 .Lots of love 2 you ♥️.
I have the mini and i keep my phone on low power mood alll day and get 8-10 hours battery life no i also use my phone all day
Hi another battery saving tips don’t use Bluetooth headphones. I know Apple loves us to use their Bluetooth headphones but that drains the battery go ahead and either buy the headphone adapter so you can plug-in regular old headphone, jack headphones, or go out and buy the lightning headphones like I did. This tip would save you. You can still listen to music in the background but you won’t be draining your battery because Apple forces you to use Bluetooth.
Bluetooth is proven not to drain battery . You won’t notice 1 percent battery use
RUclips premium let’s you watch video with turned off display
Low Power mode is the biggest pro tip tho
Maybe we should limit using our mobile device so much lol
Why is none of the battery test videos have the low power mode on? Isn’t it basic.
I’ve had 6.5 hours on my second day with the phone and almost 8 hours was my max so far 👍
What is the name of the keyboard you used for your desktop?
Please don't use your iPhone 13 mini.
Nice Video
Attach a MagSafe battery pack and outlast every other phone out there.
This is sad. You need to disable features you're literally paying for just to use it longer.
Having a phone with the brightness turned up all the way for most of the day is really not good especially if you use your phone a lot. It will strain the eyes way more then just looking at the sun.
Great tips! Thank you for them. I'm not a young 'power user' like you are so my battery life is actually pretty damn good.
I recently got a *gorgeous* iPhone 13 mini ('midnight'-color) *FOR FREE* !!!
US-based carrier 'Verizon' is literally giving them away for simply adding a new line to someone's existing family plan!
Best iPhone of them all in my humble opinion. I don't want those *HUGE* models that are a real pain to hold and manipulate.
u can turn off wifi and bluetooth when u no need them
make a video more focussed on screen off apps such as spotify and music //podcast please.
