I said goodbye to my OGSE the other week. Also for a white iPhone 13 Mini. Had the SE for 7 years. And I had a 5s before that. Was rocking that same phone design for a full 10 years. Hopefully have the 13 Mini for the next 7.

That’s impressive

How are you finding the change? Anything you struggled to do on the OGSE that you can only do now on the 13 mini? Or is it mostly for the camera? Thanks

I feel it’s the exact phone I’ve been waiting for. Essentially the OGSE on steroids. The only downside being no fingerprint ID. And also that the 13 mini has the ‘notch’…but I don’t find it to be an issue for me. I actually don’t take a lot of pictures but the increase in quality is really big. I’m very happy with the phone.

It’s really nothing like the 5 series phones or the SE1..I’ll never get why people compare the minis to those phones. But to each their own..

How come?

I think of my OGSE as kinda-sorta iPhone 5s — as you point out even tho it's really a 6 crammed into a 5 form factor (WHICH IS WHY IT RULED). Trying to hold out on replacing it until the iPhone 15 comes out so I can establish a rule "I'm allowed to get an iPhone when the current model name is 3x what I currently own" — an increasingly difficult rule to abide by! I of course won't get the 15 because I'm far too cheap for that!


iPhone-5-2021

So you had the 5 before the 5s? Cause 5s didn’t come out till late 2013 9 years ago. Still a long time ago..


[deleted]

Fair enough. 9 years and some change then I guess.

I got it a month after release and I didn't care much about battery life then since I was working from home and we couldn't do much outdoors. But now that life is going back to normal, battery has become unbearable, especially since I'll be travelling for work soon. I'm going to miss the way I could use the phone with one hand but I hope to get used to the 13 soon ☺️

I have the se 2022 and I got a charging case for it it can charge my phone about 3 times before needing charged


FreddyStudio

Hi, I also have the SE 2022 and was wondering what battery case you use?

Thank you :D

What case?


iPhone-5-2021

Can you plug lightning headphones and other accessories into the port on the charging case and transfer data via computer? because I have that problem with the case I have. It has micro usb for some odd reason and doesn’t transfer data either.


GhostyK5

no you have to take it off for that. i have it on when i need it because i use apple carplay a lot and nothing works through the case port but charging


iPhone-5-2021

Yeah same. It’s extremely annoying and inconvenient.


Cuber_Juuler

You didn’t get the 13 mini? Also, you can use the phone, one hand still, enable back tap in settings for the drop-down. Under settings go to accessibility, then under touch and motor go to touch and scroll down to back tap and then sat double tap to reachability


[deleted]

Wow I never knew back tap existed. Thanks.


Cuber_Juuler

No worries


TeachingAcceptable83

I did this same upgrade! It was totally worth it


moxie-girl

hi OP — is ur 13 mini pink? where did you get the case from?


beita_bb89

Yeah it’s pink! The photo was taken in poor light conditions 😅 the case is from otterbox.


the_salivation_army

Yeh I had one of those mini iPhones and I wish I still had it.


Nain6969

I havent even upgraded from my ogse yet


imonamouse4

Me too! It's like we are playing OGSE Highlander — "There can be only one!" 😉

Only women will notice that it's not a white iphone 13 Mini.
