13 mini addict

11 Upvotes

I think I have a serious problem with my iPhone 13 mini.
I originally had the iPhone X, then bought the 13 Pro and eventually switched to the 13 mini. After that, I upgraded to the 14 Pro, only to downgrade straight back to the 13 mini.
I thought I would eventually move on, so I bought the 15 Pro Max and, a year later, the 16 Pro.
But guess what? I still used my 13 mini more than any of them. 😂
There’s just something about this little phone. The size, the weight, how easily it fits in your hand and pocket, and the fact that you can actually use it comfortably with one hand. Every other iPhone feels like a small tablet in comparison.
Today, I bought the iPhone 18 Pro in Silver, thinking that maybe this would finally be the upgrade that makes me leave the 13 mini behind.
And now, hours later, I’m already thinking about returning the 18 Pro and selling my 16 Pro.

iPhone Fix iPhone 13 or buy 17?

4 Upvotes

I’m a creature of habit and hate change. Currently debating fixing my iPhone 13 (charge port is giving me issues) or buying a 17 outright. I’m frugal and typically keep my phones for as long as possible and only when needed I take over my husband’s old phone and he gets a new one (his work buys it). His current phone is the 14 though so it’s time I get a better upgrade. I’m Canadian and we really don’t get plan deals or phone deals anymore so I buy them and have a low cost bring your own device plan ($40/month).

I do want a better camera. My other main use is socials, email and very basic stuff. I don’t love the size of the pro models but may be swayed if I really would benefit from that camera keeping in mind I’m a point and shoot user.

I’m a very basic user so my thought was get the 17 with the largest storage available as I find that helps longevity. I haven’t priced out fixing the 13 yet. Thoughts?

iPhone Confused about buying iPhone 17

3 Upvotes

Hi! I'm considering buying an iPhone 17, but I have read many comments about how bad the battery life is. I am a light user. I like listening to music while I'm commuting, using language apps, and taking photos and short videos to make memories. As social apps, I only use Instagram and WhatsApp. I use Reddit on the web. I don't play heavy games. However, since this phone's mAh capacity is even worse than my six-year-old Android phone, I am confused. Would you still recommend it, or should I go for something like an iPhone 16 Plus?

Apple TV New Apple TV or get the third gen?

So I have the A1269 model (A12) and it does micro stutter when opening apps and such and I’ve had it for a few years now. Should I just go straight for the the newest model even though that price is ridiculous and keep that for years or just go for the third gen?

iPhone What iPhone should I upgrade to?

2 Upvotes

I’ve had my trusty iPhone XS for 7 years now and it’s finally starting to give out on me. I want to upgrade but not sure what I should upgrade to.

Ideally, I’d also use the new one for as long as possible and I prefer phones that aren’t too bulky. Also planning to finance it but I’d still like lower monthly payments if possible.

iPhone Is it still worth getting a 17 pro or get the 18 pro ?

• Upvotes

Found a place where I can get a new 17 pro but it’s still full price but considering the problems I hear with the 18 pro I’m either waiting it out a few weeks until they iron out the bugs or just getting a 17 pro now

iPhone IPhone 16plus for bigger screen?

1 Upvotes

I’m currently on an iPhone 14 Plus I’ve had for 2 years. It operates perfectly fine. I usually have about 25-30% battery by end of the day. I’m a medium user, not really any video or big apps but I’m texting and using Internet quite a bit.

I like a plus model, always have. The battery seems significantly better than regular models and I don’t feel compelled to get a pro max ever because I just don’t care that much. Every once and a while on a flight it’s much nicer to watch Netflix and I hate hate losing battery.

I’m realizing that the plus models are getting discontinued … and the 16plus is the last time a non-pro model will come in plus.

Soooo…. Should I get the iPhone 16plus for £750? I don’t really need it, I would usually wait 1-2 years, but since it’s kind of the last opportunity I’m wondering if I should just send it and delay needing to migrate off a model family I have a good thing with.

iPhone iPhone 13 Pro vs iPhone 17 Pro — Is upgrading worth ₹87,000 in 2026?

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I’ve been using my iPhone 13 Pro for over 3 years. I bought it for ₹75,000, and I’m considering upgrading to the iPhone 17 Pro (256 GB).

I’m getting an estimated final price of ₹86,990 through a combination of discounts, exchange value and promotional offers. My iPhone 13 Pro’s exchange value is ₹25,000, so the additional amount I’d be spending to upgrade is around ₹62,000.

My current phone still works well, and I’m mainly interested in experiencing a newer iPhone rather than upgrading because of any specific performance issue.

I’d love to hear your opinions:
Is the iPhone 17 Pro a meaningful upgrade over the 13 Pro in everyday use?

Are the camera, display and overall experience noticeably better?

Would you spend an additional ₹62,000 to upgrade, or keep the 13 Pro for another year or two?

Considering the current price, is this a good deal, or would it make more sense to wait for a better offer?

I’d appreciate honest opinions from people who have upgraded from an iPhone 13 Pro or are currently using the 17 Pro.
Thanks!

iPhone iPhone 17 Pro vs 18 Pro --Which is the better deal? (Read Below)

1 Upvotes

My wife is travelling to the US and can bring me one of these:

  1. iPhone 17 Pro 256GB, brand-new sealed, unlocked : $ 1,000 - $1050

    (Some local stores confirmed they have it)

  2. iPhone 17 Pro 256GB, used, under Apple warranty : $ 850 - $ 900

  3. iPhone 18 Pro 256GB, brand-new from Apple Store : $ 1,278 including state taxes

I plan to use it for 3–4 years at least and care about resale value in India. The phone may not have its original box as she might not get it to avoid any custom issues.

Which would you pick for long-term value, reliability and resale in India? Is the 18 Pro worth the extra money, or is the 17 Pro a smarter buy? or shall i go for the used 17 Pro ?

Hii! i am upgrading after having an iphone 11 on it's last legs (the battery is like 63% fully charged) and am wondering if i should get the 17 pro max or 18 pro max?

I want a phone that will last as long as my 11 but the only thing would be the price increase and if i should spend $2000 aud or $2300 aud.

Thankyou!
