Apple to Discontinue iPhone 13 Mini, Leaving iPhone SE as Only Small Phone Option

Apple is reportedly planning to discontinue the iPhone 13 Mini after the iPhone 15 announcement due to poor sales.
The iPhone SE models will be the only entry-level option for users looking for a smaller phone after the iPhone 13 Mini is discontinued.
The iPhone SE 3 features a 4.7-inch display, smaller than the 5.4-inch screen on the iPhone 13 Mini.
Low stock and long shipping times indicate the iPhone 13 Mini may be phased out soon after the iPhone 15 launch.
Fans of smaller phones can still buy the iPhone SE 3, though its 4.7-inch screen is smaller than the iPhone 13 Mini's 5.4-inches.
