as someone who's had the 12 mini for a couple of years now, what does this mean for me?

have i been irreparably harmed? is there a pressing need for me to get rid of that device?

Your head might have gotten a little bit warmer compared to someone using a different phone while calling, especially if you live in an area with poor coverage.

i am known for my short temper. maybe that's where i got the hot head?

Probably not, but you could look into any recalls / software updates.

I haven't read the specifics, but I think if you store it in a bag or something and don't leave it in contact with your body too long, you should be fine. If it was more serious, there would be more of an announcement
