True, there are more manufacturers of Android phones.
But Apple has their ecosystem all to themselves, and they are, if not
the most profitable company in the world, certainly one of them. They
could make more choices of iPhone if they wanted to.
Even though the 13 Mini did not sell as well as their other phones, they
certainly were not selling it at a loss.
When it comes time to upgrade, I will have to get a larger iPhone if I
want to stick with Apple. I can use the Standard size, I've done that
before.

well, sort of thinking about it; want to play with Apple intelligence
and there’s the USBC port. On the other hand: I’ve got a nice charger
which charges my Apple Watch, AirPods, and iPhone and use wireless
charging so can manage quite well for now. I might get a better
trade-in price now though than if I wait another year.
All the best

I agree. I like the way my 13 Mini fits in my pocket better than the
standard sized iPhone 12 I had before did. And I also plan to hold on
to it as long as I possibly can.
True, these smaller phones have smaller batteries, but for what I use
mine for, my battery life is just fine.
One might be forgiven for thinking that a company valued at over 3
trillion dollars could give us more than, what? four or five choices
of iPhone, and make one of them smaller, but one would apparently be
mistaken about that.
Although, from what I have read, as Joshua pointed out, the 13 Mini
did not sell great, it does have a pretty loyal fan base; and Apple
could certainly afford to produce a greater variety of iPhones than
they do.
How many choices of phones do Android users get? I really have no
idea, but it is certainly a lot more than four or five.

I too hope that they will release another smaller phone in the near
future. I love the size of my SE and I’m disappointed to learn that
the new one will be about the size of an iPhone 14. I really want a
smaller phone and will hold onto this one as long as it will update.
I don’t understand the emphasis on these huge phones I get that
sided folks like a larger screen, but there should be something
available for those of us with smaller hands who like the smaller
form factor.

Not this year and even the expected iPhone SE 4^th generation will
now be a larger phone most likely similar to a regular iPhone 16.
There are rumours about an iPhone 17 Air or iPhone 17 Slim or
whatever Apple will call it a year from now, but whether this phone
will actually be much smaller or simply a thinner phone nobody knows.

Just wondering if anyone has heard any rumors about a new mini type
phone. I really like the size of my 13 mini. Just curious.
God bless!
