The iPhone 13 Mini arrived in 2021, with a 5.4 inch Super Retina XDR OLED display and the A15 Bionic chip. It charges over Lightning and it unlocks with Face ID. There is an aluminium frame, and it is rated IP68. The small one. A 5.4 inch screen with Face ID and two diagonal cameras, and the last of the mini iPhones. A2628 is the model sold here.

What this fixes

The faults a free diagnostic puts right.

  • It comes and goesThe hardest kind to quote blind, and the one most likely to get the wrong part fitted.
  • It got worse after a repair somewhere elseWorth looking at properly rather than repeating the same repair.
  • You do not know what is wrongPerfectly normal. Describing what it does is more useful to us than naming a repair.
  • More than one thing is wrong at onceTwo faults together are usually one cause, and finding it is cheaper than fixing both.
  • It works, then it does not, with no patternAn intermittent fault is the hardest thing to price without looking, which is exactly what this is for.
  • You want to know whether it is worth repairing at allA fair question and a common one. We will tell you when the answer is no.
Before you spend anything

Is it definitely a hardware fault?

A diagnostic is not a repair, it is the step that stops you paying for the wrong one.

IfOne clear symptom and an obvious cause
You probably do not need this. A cracked screen or a tired battery is priced on its own page and can be booked directly.
IfIt went in water at any point
Book the liquid damage assessment instead. It is a different process and looks for different things.
IfIt is a work phone and downtime matters
Tell us when you book. We look at those first and tell you early if it is going to take longer than a day.
IfIt is under manufacturer warranty
Go to them first and we will tell you so. A defect inside warranty should not cost you anything anywhere.
IfYou want a written quote for insurance
Say so at the counter and we will do it that way from the start.

If you are not sure which of these you have, that is what the free diagnostic is for. It costs nothing and it is the step that stops people paying for the wrong repair.

What parts do we fit?

Genuine Apple service parts where they exist for the component, and premium aftermarket where they do not. You are told which one your repair uses before you agree to it, and the 360-day warranty is the same either way.

We will not describe a part as genuine, original or Apple certified unless that is what is going into your phone. If the honest answer is premium aftermarket, that is what we say at the counter.

    Genuine, OEM and aftermarket: what the words actually mean

    What the €35 includes

    • A full inspection on the bench, free
    • A written answer on what has failed
    • A price before any work happens
    • No fee if we cannot fix it

    No additional paid work happens without your approval. If the diagnostic finds something behind the part we are replacing, we stop, explain it and confirm the cost first.

    Dublin collection and return is available on weekdays if you cannot make it in. Nothing about the price or the cover changes because the courier brought it.

    How we do it

    From the counter to back in your hand.

    Tell us what it is doing

    Two minutes online, or straight in the door at 4 Richmond Road. The more you can say about when it started, the faster we get to the cause.

    Free diagnostic

    Nothing is opened or ordered until we know what failed. There is no charge for this and no obligation to go ahead afterwards.

    You approve the price

    The price is confirmed to you before anything begins, and it does not move afterwards unless you agree to something else.

    The repair is carried out

    Done at our Drumcondra bench by the technicians who do this every day.

    Bench testing

    Nothing is handed back untested. The repaired part and its neighbours are all checked first.

    Back in your hands

    Yours again, from the counter or by courier, with 360 days of cover on the part and the work.

    Before it goes back

    What we test every time.

    A repair is not finished when the part is fitted. It is finished when the things around it have been checked.

    Power, charge and battery health

    The three things that explain most faults before anything is opened.

    Display, touch and every sensor

    End to end, because a fault in one often points at something else entirely.

    Cameras, speakers and microphones

    All of them, so nothing turns up as a surprise a week later.

    Ports and buttons

    Including the ones you did not mention, since damage rarely lands in only one place.

    Is anything on the device at risk?

    This is hardware work. We do not need to go into your photos, messages or accounts to do it, and we do not.

    We do need to switch the device on and use it to test the repair, so we may ask for your passcode. If you would rather not hand it over, tell us and we will show you what we cannot verify without it. Any passcode you give us goes on the paper docket and the docket gets shredded. It is never stored in our system.

    Back the device up before any repair. Not because we expect to lose anything, but because a device that has already been dropped is one whose storage has already been shaken, and a backup costs nothing.

    Is it still water resistant afterwards?

    Treat the device as no longer water resistant after any repair, including this one.

    An IP rating is measured on a brand new, factory sealed device in a laboratory. It is a description of how that device left the factory, not a property it keeps. Heat, age and everyday knocks degrade the seal long before anybody opens it, which is why phones that have never been repaired still let water in.

    Opening a device means cutting through adhesive. We refit with fresh adhesive, which gives you back a physical seal that keeps rain and splashes out. What we will not do is claim the original rating is restored, because there is no way for us or for any independent shop in Ireland to test that.

    If the device lives near water, tell us when you book. It changes what we recommend and it is a two minute conversation rather than a surprise afterwards.

    The 360-day warranty

    Every completed repair is covered for 360 days on the part and the workmanship. If the display we fitted fails, or the fitting was at fault, we put it right at no charge.

    What it does not cover is a new accident. A phone dropped again after the repair, fresh physical damage, liquid damage, or a fault in a part we did not touch, all sit outside it. That is the same limit any honest repair warranty has.

    No fix, no fee. The diagnostic is free, and if the repair does not happen you pay nothing.

    Three ways to get it to us

    • Walk in to Drumcondra4 Richmond Road, Dublin 3. No appointment. Mon to Sat 10:00 to 18:00, closed Sunday. Most phone screens and batteries done in 15 to 45 minutes while you wait.
    • We collect and returnDoor to door across Dublin, Monday to Friday, usually 2 to 4 working days. The repair takes the same time; the courier is the difference.
    • Send it in yourselfPost it to the shop with a tracked, insured service and a note with your number. We cannot cover a parcel in transit, and that is the honest trade-off for the route existing.

    Same repair price and the same 360-day warranty on all three. The only thing that changes is how the device travels.

    Asked all the time

    iPhone 13 Mini screen questions.

    €35, including the part, the fitting, the testing and the 360-day warranty. VAT is included. You get that figure confirmed before anything is opened, and if we cannot repair the phone you pay nothing.

    Usually while you wait. If the diagnostic turns up something else, or a part has to be ordered, we tell you before you commit rather than after.

    No. The diagnostic is free, you get told what has failed and what it costs, and there is no fee if we cannot fix it.

    No. It is free, it is honest, and there is no fee if we cannot fix the device.

    Usually the same day. Where a fault only shows itself under load we sometimes need to leave the device running, and we tell you that at the counter.

    Only with your say-so. You get the cause, the price and the option to say no before any paid work starts.

    Then that is what we tell you, and you pay nothing. We would rather lose a repair than sell one that does not make sense.

    iMEND is an independent repair service. Brand and model names are used only to describe the devices we repair. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by or an authorised service provider for any manufacturer.

    Why bring it here

    An independent workshop, not a kiosk.

    We are a dedicated repair bench in Dublin 3. That means we take on work authorised channels turn away, and we tell you honestly when something is not worth fixing.

    Diagnosed, not guessed

    Every device is tested before we quote, so you are not paying for a part that was never the problem.

    Parts that last

    Genuine or OEM-grade components chosen for your model. We tell you which is going in before we start.

    Your data stays yours

    Hardware-only repairs. We never read, copy or move anything on your device.

    No fix, no fee

    If we cannot repair it, there is nothing to pay. No diagnostic fee, no handling charge.

    The screen stopped working on my iPhone 13 mini - it had recently been repaired elsewhere. I got a warm welcome in the shop, and a phone to borrow while mine was in for diagnostics and repair. An issue with the battery was also detected and I am very happy with the new screen and battery and appreciated the excellent service and communication.
