According to news on September 11, Apple’s small-screen mobile phones may soon be discontinued. Apple first launched the iPhone 12 mini in 2020, followed a year later by the iPhone 13 mini. However, the compact phone wasn't as popular as expected. Now, the inventory of iPhone 13 mini has bottomed out, and the delivery time of some models on the US official website is shown to be 2-3 weeks, and up to 6-8 weeks. This may mean that small-screen mobile phones will no longer occupy an important position among the new products to be released, and may even face discontinuation
Although the small-screen iPhone has been favored by some users Eagerly anticipated, but actual sales figures suggest that its performance has been less than satisfactory. A report from research firm CIRP last April showed that the iPhone 13 mini iPhone in the first quarter of the year in the United States The 13 series only accounts for 3% of sales. This is obviously related to the fact that most consumers prefer mobile phones with larger screens, because these large-screen mobile phones provide better media entertainment, gaming and multitasking experiences, and also have advantages in battery life and camera performance.
From what I understand, although there is still demand for small-screen phones in the market, Apple may think to simplify the product line and focus resources on more popular models is a wiser decision. For those users who are still in love with small-screen phones, now may be the last chance. They may need to buy iPhone 13 mini as soon as possible or consider other brands of small-screen phones. As technology continues to advance and market trends change, the mobile phone market will continue to evolve, providing consumers with more diverse choices
