I upgraded my iPhone 12 mini to a 13 mini the day the 13 mini was discontinued. My plan was to use it for as long as humanly possible. However, since it was already a couple years old when I got it, the battery and hardware limitations (most ram) started to become a problem within the first year. I ended up getting a 16 Pro a few weeks ago.
I’d love a phone the size of the mini, but a Pro model with triple cameras. I would be perfectly fine with them making it thicker to accommodate the extra hardware and a comparable battery. I think I’d actually prefer this, as a thicker phone would mean they could eliminate the camera bump, or at least shrink it.
I don’t think my wishes will ever come true. Personally, I’d even go smaller than the mini. I think they got the size right the first time. I would be happy keeping it the same size and moving to an all-screen design. But I’m an oddity these days, as I still think the computer should be the center hub, and the phone a utility device for on the go. The overall market has moved to mobile-first, where the phone isn’t just the center hub, its many people’s only device.
