The price is agreed first

You get the price before any work begins. If we find something else, we stop and tell you rather than adding it to the bill.

The exact price is confirmed before any work begins. Complex faults, including liquid damage, no-power, intermittent faults and logic board issues, carry a €30 diagnostic fee. If you go ahead with the quoted repair, the €30 is credited in full toward the repair cost. If the device cannot be repaired, no repair charge applies beyond any agreed diagnostic or assessment fee.

iPhone 12 Mini repairs, in detail

Repairs available for this exact model

Confirming you have this exact model

The iPhone 12 mini is the 5.4-inch model, unmistakably the smallest phone of its generation and one of the smallest modern iPhones Apple made. It carries two rear cameras.

If your phone feels normal-sized rather than notably small, it is an iPhone 12. Confirm in Settings, then General, then About.

What this model comes in for

Batteries dominate on the mini, more than on any other model in its generation, and the reason is physical rather than a defect. A smaller phone carries a smaller cell, so the same percentage of wear removes more of your usable day.

A 12 mini that no longer reaches the evening is behaving exactly as an ageing small battery does, and a replacement genuinely restores it.

Screens follow, then charging ports.

A word about repairing a mini at all

People keep the 12 mini longer than the numbers suggest, because nothing has replaced it. That changes the advice.

If you like the size and intend to keep the phone, a battery replacement is the single best thing you can do for it, and it is a repair worth doing on a mini that would be marginal on a larger model you could more easily replace.

Everything inside is packed tighter, so repairs take more care. That is a bench consideration rather than something that should change your decision.

Is it worth repairing?

For a battery, yes, and more clearly than on most phones of this age, because a small iPhone in good condition is genuinely hard to replace with anything current.

For a screen plus a battery together on a phone that is also physically worn, the answer becomes a real conversation. ExpressTech will give you an honest view rather than a quote by default.

Your data, and your warranty

Your data is not accessed, transferred or erased during a standard hardware repair, and the phone is not wiped in order to repair it. A passcode is not needed for most repairs. Back up beforehand as a general precaution, because hardware that is already failing can fail further during any repair.

Every completed repair is backed by a 12-month warranty on parts and workmanship. It covers faulty parts and workmanship, but does not cover new accidental damage, misuse or unrelated faults after the repair. Liquid damage repairs are excluded from that warranty due to the risk of ongoing corrosion, and this is explained before any liquid work is approved.

Water resistance does not survive the phone being opened, at any repair centre. ExpressTech reseals during reassembly, which returns splash resistance, but a repaired iPhone should be treated as no longer water resistant.

Common questions about iPhone 12 Mini repairs

My mini's battery is much worse than my old iPhone. Is it faulty? Almost certainly not. The mini carries a physically smaller cell, so identical wear costs you more hours.

Is the mini harder to repair? It is more tightly packed, so it takes more care on the bench. It is a routine repair here.

Should I repair it or replace it with a bigger phone? If the size is why you own it, repair it. Nothing current is this small.

The questions people actually ask.

How long does an iPhone 12 Mini repair take?

Most iPhone 12 Mini screen, battery and charging port repairs are completed in around 60 minutes. We'll always confirm the expected turnaround before any work begins.

Is my iPhone 12 Mini repair covered by a warranty?

Every completed repair includes a 12-month warranty on parts and workmanship. The warranty does not cover accidental damage after repair, liquid damage after repair or unrelated faults. Full warranty terms are available before your repair begins.

Can I walk in with my iPhone 12 Mini without booking?

Yes. No booking is needed for most repairs at our Dublin 2 store on Baggot Street Lower. Walk in any time during opening hours and most standard repairs are completed while you wait.

Will my data be affected during an iPhone 12 Mini repair?

No. We do not access your personal data during standard hardware repairs. Your data is never accessed, transferred or erased unless you explicitly ask us to carry out a data-related service. We recommend keeping a backup as a general precaution before any repair.

Bring us the iPhone 12 Mini.

A human answers during opening hours — and if a repair isn't worth doing, we'll say so before you spend anything.
