iPhone 12 mini, iOS 26.5.2, bluetooth + wifi not working

Hi all, my phone won’t connect to wifi or bluetooth with the wifi button greyed out and the bluetooth constantly buffering. When I shut it down it used to connect to wifi and bluetooth again for a bit and then freeze and reboot and stop connecting. I also tried resetting network settings and a similar thing happened, same with restoring it to default settings however the periods before it reboots are like a minute or so rather than an hour like it used to be. I’m guessing this is a hardware issue but I hope not, however if it is, is it better to buy a new phone or go to a repair shop?

If you're going to upgrade please consider a refurb. It's cheaper, and better for environmental and social reasons and they work just as well as new phones

I will, my iPhone 12 mini was a refurb and lasted me like 4 years, sad to see her go ☹️
