I generally only charge my 13 mini every other day or so.

The only time I recently struggled getting through the day was when on vacation and constantly using google maps & translate. But that is with a 3 year old phone.

Worth noting that (so I've heard) the most impactful hardware change between the 12 mini and the 13 mini was improvements to the battery life. I've never struggled with the battery life on my 13 mini, either, but the handful of people I know with a 12 mini have always bemoaned it.

May I ask what your approximate screen on time is each day? You must be less addicted than the general population where its 4-6 hours a day

Hm, looks like ios won't show screen time unless reporting is enabled which I haven't done.

13 mini here, also not charging every day. My screen time is around 2 hours a day, which IMO is still to much. I try to keep battery between 20 and 80 percent.
