Apple Discontinues iPhone Mini, Drops 13 Mini as Sales Struggle Due to Battery and Screen Size
-
Apple has discontinued the iPhone Mini, dropping the iPhone 13 Mini from its lineup. The new lineup consists of the iPhone 15, 15 Pro, 14, 13, and iPhone SE 2022.
-
Apple first introduced the 5.4-inch Mini with the iPhone 12 Mini in 2020. It was not very popular due to the noticeably worse battery life and small screen size.
-
Apple reduced iPhone 12 Mini production by 70% less than a year after launch. The lack of an iPhone 14 Mini last year signaled the Mini's demise.
-
The iPhone 13 Mini can still be purchased from third-party retailers and carriers like Amazon, though not from Apple.
-
There are some decent small Android phones and the 4.7-inch second-gen iPhone SE for small screen fans, though without features like dual cameras.
