Re: I'm in the Market for a Small iPhone
I see nothing wrong with getting the two year old device. If it works for you why not. Maybe this is your device you want to hold you over until your next big upgrade. If the price is right and it does what you need it to, hey make it work. I have the 12 pro max, and I see no reason to upgrade right now. I mean I kind of want to upgrade just because I don't have apple care but that's it. Hoping something big comes next year, if not I may wait until the 16 and find some other tech toy to hold me over until I am ready for a phone upgrade.

RE: I'm in the Market for a Small iPhone
Hi Evan: Before you purchase you might want to at least take a look at the 13 pro model. It's a bit larger than the mini granted, but will give you some benefits such as lidar. If you are planning to keep the phone a while and hope to use it to it's greatest potential, the lidar feature is certainly worth having.

RE: I'm in the Market for a Small iPhone
And for most people 256 Gb is more than enough, I have an iPhone 11 with 64 Gb and use a bit more than half and currently 10 Gb are Audible books I have downloaded but not yet listened tto. There are only two scenarios I can think of why you would need 512 Gb or 1 Tb and that is if you like to record tons of videos or if you are a digital hoarder like Joshua who wants to have every book downloaded to his device whether he reads them or not. I have a little over 1000 books in my Audible library and I assume that even a 1 Tb phone wouldn't be enough if I wanted to actually keep a downloaded copy on my phone, but I really don't care because if I do want to listen to a book again I just find it in my library and for the most part with the fiber connections many of us have nowadays it take a minute or less to download it. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of Evan Reese Sent: Saturday, October 22, 2022 6:16 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: I'm in the Market for a Small iPhone Thanks Joshua, I wasn't aware of that storage limitation in the SE3.

RE: I'm in the Market for a Small iPhone
As for support, I wouldn't worry too much about it, whether you buy an iPhone 13 Mini, 13 Pro or SE third Gen, they all have the same CPU and will all be supported the same number of years and it will only be one year less if that than any of the iPhone 14 models. Most likely you'll be in the market for a new iPhone before support for the 13 family of phones runs out. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of Alan Lemly Sent: Thursday, October 20, 2022 8:30 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: I'm in the Market for a Small iPhone Hi Evan, Just to clarify some misinformation posted about the iPhone 13 Mini versus the iPhone SE. I'm currently using the 13 Mini and my iPhone before it was the SE 2020. The SE 2020 has the same physical form factor as the iPhone 7 and 8 and while the 13 Mini has a larger screen size than the SE, its physical form factor is actually a bit smaller. I'm not going to pretend to predict when these various models will be obsolete but I believe the 13 Mini will be usable for a few more years. I can say that I really like mine and don't think you can go wrong choosing it. Good luck with your decision.

RE: I'm in the Market for a Small iPhone
It is the opposite, the iPhone SE has a 4.7 inch screen and the iPhone 13 Mini has a 5.4 inch screen. The reason why the Mini with it's significantly larger screen is almost not bigger is because it doesn't need space for the home button and the bezels around the screen are smaller. The difference in physical size (length and width) is so small that it is not really noticeable unless you put one on top of the other. Both SE third Gen and 13 Mini have the same A15 processor and actually the 13 Mini wasn't as popular or as good of a seller which is probably the main reason why Apple is not making a Mini any more. Of course so far it seems the 14 Plus is also not going to be flying off the shelves. Small phones like the SE and Mini seem to be a thing of the past at least for now because the next iPhone SE is going to have a 6.1 inch screen and will apparently be similar to the iPhone XR in design with no homne button. And do not buy a regular iPhone 14, you are getting a phone which has the same A15 processor as the iPhone 13 family since Apple only put the new A16 processor into the iPhone 14 Pro and pro MNax this year. You would be much better off with a 13 Pro over a regular 14, you get the same processor but you gain the liDAR sensor which is in all Pro models since the iPhone 12 Pro, but it is not in the regular models like the regular iPhone 12/12 Mini, 13/13 Mini and 14/14 Plus and neither is it in the SE. Here are the dimensions and weights of both the 13 Mini and 13 Pro and this comes directly from Apple's website: iPhone 13 mini 5.18 inches tall (131.5mm) 2.53 inches wide (64.2mm) 0.30 inches thick (7.65mm) 4.94 ounces (140 grams) iPhone 13 Pro 5.78 inches tall (146.7mm) 2.82 inches wide (71.5mm) 0.30 inches thick (7.65mm) 7.16 ounces (203 grams) iPhone 13 Pro is larger and heavier as 13 Mini by these numbers: Tall: 0.6 inches (15.2mm) Wide: 0.29 inches (7.3mm) Thickness: same Weight: 2.22 ounces (63 grams) In other words, the most noticeable difference would be the height/length, the 13 Pro is just under 5/8 of an inch taller which is about as much as most people's pinky finger or maybe their index finger. In width it is only a bit more than a quarter of an inch wider, if you look at the difference in millimeters, 7.3mm is a little less than the 7.65mm thickness of both the 13 Mini and 13 Pro. This means if you put a 13 Mini on top of a 13 Pro you could stand another iPhone on edge and it would cover the difference in width. The most noticeable difference is probably the weight, but as I said, you should really see if you can't go to an Apple store and handle both phones to see if the Mini is as much smaller as you think or if that size difference really matters to you. ---Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of Evan Reese Sent: Thursday, October 20, 2022 8:01 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: I'm in the Market for a Small iPhone Thanks Larry, I did some Googling.

RE: I'm in the Market for a Small iPhone
I would recommend the iPhone 13 Mini, but before you decide I'd take a look at the 13 Pro if money is not a huge concern. You could of course also consider the latest 14 Pro, but that would for you to decide. Here are a few reasons why I suggest 13 Mini or 13 Pro/14 Pro: 1. The SE third Gen is probably a fine phone, but it still has a Touch Id virtual home button. I know many people buy it for exactly that reason, but personally while having both Touch Id and Face Id would be best, if I had to decide between Touch Id and Face Id I would choose Face Id. There is also the fact that the Se third Gen may very well be the last phone with a home button and Touch Id unless (as I said earlier) they introduce under display Touch I dat some point in addition to Face Id. I am saying this because I just read an article where John Prosser, who has a pretty good track record with his predictions, is revealing first information about the iPhone SE 4th Gen which is expected to be released next spring as the new lowe cost iPhone. According to that article that new iPhone SE may look a lot like an XR with a big notch, but it appears that the home button may go away and since I doubt Apple will put a Touch Id capable side button on any phone I guess this means it will of course have Face Id. I would get used to using a phone without home button from the start even though having an iPad you of course would be used to a home button, but if this rumour about the fourth generation SE is true then it means we will never again see an iPhone with a home button. 2. I mention the 13 Pro or 14 Pro because you should really check them out and hold them in your hand and compare then to an iPhone 13 Mini. They really are not all that much larger physically, but you get the benefit of the LiDAR sensor which is required for features like door detection and maybe other things in the future. Lastly, I wouldn't buy an SE because I think having the ability to use MagSafe accessories such as charging pads, cases and external batteries is very nice and to my knowledge not even the third Gen iPhone SE has MagSafe. I assume the 13 Mini has it, but definitely the 13 Pro and 14 Pro have it. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of llump...@austin.rr.com Sent: Thursday, October 20, 2022 7:48 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: I'm in the Market for a Small iPhone Susan and I both have the SE3 and like them very much. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of Evan Reese Sent: Thursday, October 20, 2022 9:11 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: I'm in the Market for a Small iPhone Hey Guys, I meant to mention that I saw an iPhone 13 Mini not too long ago that looked like just the thing if I want a small model, but someone else told me that they weren't making newer models of that one.

I kind of wonder if you'd want a 13 Mini. It has no Home Button. An SE3 does have a Home Button, but you might want more battery.

Re: I'm in the Market for a Small iPhone
Just a couple more things Evan. Keep in mind that normally in a smaller phone factor comes less battery life. I would say that both phones have decent battery life, but nothing compared to the bigger phones. Of coarse, battery life is dependent on how much the phone is used every day. The second thing is, and you did not say this mattered, but the iphone SE uses touch ID and has a home button, and the iphone 13 uses face ID and has no home button. Just a couple of things that you should keep in mind when looking at the different iphones. I would say that both the iphone 13 mini and the iphone SE will work good for you for several years and I would guess 4 to 5 years depending on usage and how good the battery life holds up. It is said, that the reason the mini is no longer in the lineup of the new phones is because of sales. And I personally think that having two iphones at the smaller form factor is why the mini is going away. The SE is a very popular model, and the SE sales is a lot more, and this is probably because the price of the SE is less than the mini. So I do not think either phone is a bad choice. Like anything else, it comes down to personal preference.

RE: I'm in the Market for a Small iPhone
I'm confused. What's meant by the iPhone 13 Mini becoming obsolete? I can't see that it won't be able to run on cell networks for years, and it'll keep getting IOS updates for at least as long as any other iPhone 13. This will almost assuredly be for just one year less than the iPhone 14 models. Apple may not have put out an iPhone 14 Mini but that doesn't mean they won't have something comparable to the Mini down the road, and it doesn’t take anything whatsoever away from the current iPhone 13 Mini. Unless you're looking for that extra year of IOS updates, I don't see any reason not to go with an iPhone 13 Mini and then choosing your next phone in a few years when you're ready.

Re: I'm in the Market for a Small iPhone
Thanks Larry, I did some Googling. It took me some time, but I found a guide to Apple's smallest iPhones. Apparently, the iPhone Mini was a very popular line, so there was some dissapointment when a new version wasn't released this year. I'm wondering though, if I get a 13 Mini, if it will be more likely to go obsolete before an SE model or a standard 14 model. If that is unlikely, then I'm kind of leaning toward that model. It's still for sale on the Apple site and from Verizon, which is our carrier. The SE is close to the same size as the Mini, although according to what I've read, it has a smaller screen but a bigger body. A lower screen resolution too, but that doesn't matter to me.

Re: I'm in the Market for a Small iPhone
Thanks Chris, I haven't looked at any models yet. I just thought I'd ask here and see what people thought before I go out to the store.

Hi Evan, The iPhone 13 Mini is still being sold, so you can still buy one, but it is correct, the mini will not be made in any new models of the iPhone, like the newest model that just came out, the iphone 14. Now have you looked at an iPhone SE? The 3rd edition just came out a few months ago, and it is smaller in size, plus it still has a home button.

I'm in the Market for a Small iPhone
Hey Guys, I'm familiar with iOS. I've been using an iPad Mini for over six years. I've never owned an iPhone yet though, and I'm now looking for one to buy. Even though I'm familiar with iOS, I'm not familiar with specific iPhone models, and I'm in the market for one. I want a small one. My manual dexterity is good, so I'm sure I can use it. But I don't want to sacrifice power or memory. Could people tell me which models I should be looking for that are on the smaller side? Assume price is no object. I'm not saying that I'm gonna buy the most expensive iPhone I can get, I'm just saying that I will look at prices once I know what my best choices are for a small model. Thanks for any suggestions.
