Kinda sad the mini form factor didn’t pan out. I wished Apple would have done a iPhone Pro mini; would have purchased one in a heartbeat.
@Bobicus @tst123 same here. I type this message, like all messages, with my thumb only. I really like having one hand free. Sooo much more efficient and relaxed. And yes, my hands are big, but not that big.
There’s that solution of not using the upper 1/3 of your screen, I know. But it’s difficult to access that option. I’m open to suggestions how to do that quickly.
And I have an iPhone 13 mini and indeed…keeping it as long as possible.
Three phone iPhone XS, iPhone and iPhone XL. It’s the higher spec options that keep people from the minis to at least some extent.
Eh, I think the problem is customers just prefer bigger phones. I mean, personally I prefer the mini, but I think it’s clear I’m in the minority.
Using a rebrand to try and downplay the compactness may work for sight-unseen buyers, but in the end if they’re shown the bigger phone in-store, past sales would suggest they’re likely going to pick the bigger phone. (Phones ended up so big in the first place because people preferred them, too.)
Eh, I think the problem is the customers just take what apple gives them
My girlfriend loves her iPhone 13 mini. Yet when she needs a new phone, she will get the iPhone large whatever.
They know this and don’t care to please the small portion of their fan base that want a smaller phone.
Having a mini line is just an extra cost to them and apple cuts all the costs they can to maximize profit. Not to please their consumers.
