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

What a speaker & microphone repair actually fixes.

  • You cannot hear callers on the earpieceThe earpiece speaker, which sits in the display assembly on most models.
  • It got quiet after a soakingWater in the mesh. Sometimes it dries out, often the driver has already gone.
  • Sound only works on speakerphoneThat points at the earpiece rather than anything upstream, and it saves a diagnostic.
  • Callers cannot hear you but voice notes record fineDifferent microphones for different jobs. It narrows this to the call microphone.
  • It went quiet gradually over monthsVery often compacted lint rather than a failed speaker. A careful clean is sometimes the whole repair.
  • Sound cuts out when the phone is squeezedA connector rather than the speaker. Worth opening and checking before ordering a part.
Before you spend anything

Is it definitely the speaker?

Half the phones that arrive here with no sound have nothing wrong with the speaker.

IfIt is quiet rather than silent
Look at the speaker grille in a good light. Compacted lint and dust muffle a loudspeaker very effectively and a careful clean is often the whole repair.
IfCallers cannot hear you but voice notes record fine
Different microphones. That tells us which one to look at and makes it a smaller job.
IfIt stopped after the phone got wet
Assess the liquid damage first. A new speaker in a corroding phone is money wasted.
IfIt is quiet rather than silent
Look at the grille in a good light. Compacted lint muffles a loudspeaker very effectively long before it silences it.
IfIt has been silent since a screen repair elsewhere
The earpiece sits in the display assembly and is easy to disturb. Bring it in rather than assuming the part failed.

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?

Two tiers, and you choose knowing which is which: a genuine Apple service part where one is made for this component, or premium aftermarket where none is. The warranty is 360 days on either.

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 €115 includes

    • The speaker or microphone replaced, or cleaned where that is enough
    • Every audio path tested, not only the one that failed
    • A real call made before the phone goes back
    • 360-day warranty on the part and the workmanship

    Nothing extra gets done and charged for without you saying yes to it. Where the diagnostic turns up a second fault, the work stops there and you hear the price before it goes any further.

    If getting here is the problem, we collect and return across Dublin from Monday to Friday. It costs the same repair price and carries the same 360-day warranty.

    Choose the part

    Two tiers, named before you agree.

    Speakers and microphones are small parts and the tier gap on them is the smallest on this list.

    iMEND Premium

    Original or manufacturer-grade part

    The manufacturer's own driver. Worth specifying on a phone you intend to keep a long time.

    Priced at the counter

    Value Edition

    Premium aftermarket, tested to the same standard

    Made to the original specification. On a speaker this is hard to fault and it is what most of these repairs use.

    Priced at the counter

    The €115 on this page is our standard quote for this repair. Which tier suits your device is a conversation at the counter, and the price for each is on the table before you decide. The 360-day warranty is the same on both, because we would not offer a tier we did not think would last.

    Before any of this, let us look at the grille. Compacted pocket lint muffles a loudspeaker very effectively, and where a clean fixes it that is what you pay for and no part goes in at all.

    The parts we use, in full

    How we do it

    From the counter to back in your hand.

    Tell us what it is doing

    Walk in during opening hours or book ahead, whichever suits. Tell us what the device is actually doing rather than what you think the fix is.

    Free diagnostic

    We confirm what has actually failed before anything is ordered or opened. It costs nothing and it is the step that stops people paying for the wrong repair.

    You approve the price

    You get the exact figure before any work starts. Nothing else happens without asking you first.

    The repair is carried out

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

    Bench testing

    The repaired function and the things around it are checked before we call you.

    Back in your hands

    Collected from Drumcondra, or returned to your door if we picked it up. Covered for 360 days.

    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.

    A real phone call

    Both directions. It is the only test that proves the earpiece and the call microphone together.

    Loudspeaker at volume

    Held at full, because a failing driver sounds fine quietly and buzzes when pushed.

    Every microphone

    Call, voice memo and video are different microphones and a phone can fail one and pass the rest.

    A real phone call

    Made and answered, since that is the only test that proves the path end to end.

    Will my data be safe?

    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.

    What about the water resistance?

    After any repair, ours included, work on the assumption that the device is no longer water resistant.

    The rating on the box was measured once, on a sealed unit, in controlled conditions. It was never a promise about the device three years later. Adhesive hardens, seals compress and a single drop can break the seal without leaving a mark you would notice.

    We reseal with fresh adhesive and it does a real job: rain, splashes and a wet counter are all fine. A submerged phone is not, and we would rather say that plainly than let you find out.

    If yours goes near water regularly, say so at the counter and we will tell you what the adhesive covers and what it does not.

    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.

    €115, 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 same day. If the diagnostic turns up something else, or a part has to be ordered, we tell you before you commit rather than after.

    Very often, yes. The loudspeaker grille packs with pocket lint and it muffles sound long before it silences it. We clean and test before quoting a replacement, and where the clean fixes it that is what you pay for.

    There is more than one microphone in the phone and they are used for different things. That symptom usually points at the call microphone specifically, which is a smaller job than it sounds.

    Very often, yes. The grille packs with pocket lint and it muffles sound long before it silences it. Where a clean fixes it, that is what you pay for.

    Gently, with a soft dry brush and the phone switched off. Never a pin and never compressed air into the grille.

    Sometimes, because on most phones the earpiece is part of the display assembly. Tell us what the sound is doing when you book so we check both.

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

    Your data stays yours

    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.
