I don't think it's that hard - 'the market' doesn't want them. Not enough people bought them to warrant companies splintering their product lines for them.
- HumblyTossed 3y agoThe crazy thing is, the iPhone mini sold enough to be a $billion dollar product. Most companies would shit themselves for that kind of business. But at Apple's scale, they didn't think the 1 or 2 percent was enough. Pick another phone maker besides Samsung and Apple and I bet the mini sold more than their products during the same period mini was sold. Google Pixel? Probably. Asus' phones? Probably.
- coldpie 3y agoYou are correct. The iPhone Mini sold more units than most Android phones do. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39104057 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39104057
