- wtallis 2y agoFrom a marketing perspective, it's probably ancient history. They've had three rounds of iPhone launches between now and the launch of the 13 mini, and the 13 mini was discontinued a year and a half ago. Even if the 16e had been a mini-sized phone (or available in this size and a mini size), it would have been weird for marketing to highlight that market segment and draw attention to that 1.5-year absence.
- lotsofpulp 2y agoI think they are referring to today's discontinuation of the 3rd gen iPhone SE, since the 16e is so different from the previous SE phones.
