Apple iPhone 13 mini launch in 2021
The iPhone 13 mini will most likely feature the same 5.4-inch retina display found on the iPhone 12 mini. It should also have the same powerful hardware borrowed from the bigger iPhone 13, and the iPhone 13 Pro series. YouTube Jon Prosser said in a video that Apple is working on the new phone and is committed to launching it later this year.

Apple’s iPhone 12 mini didn’t meet the expected demands, and some analysts even predict that the company may discontinue the production in the second quarter of 2021. However, this will not stop Apple from sticking to its four device line-up for this year. The YouTuber also mentioned that to improve sales of the iPhone 13 mini, Apple may discontinue the iPhone SE or launch a Plus variant of the SE. This would definitely make room for a smaller phone, for those who want one.
Demand for small scren phones has always been very low, as customers generally prefer phones with at least a 6-inch screen. The thinning of bezels has helped 6-inch and larger devices to occupy less space. However, there are still a bunch of customers who’d love a smaller flagship phone, and for them, the iPhone 13 mini would be a no-brainer. Apple is expected to improve the display, include better ultra-wide sensors, and even switch to an in-display scanner on the new iPhone 13 series. We’d have to wait to find out though, as most of this is still just speculation and rumours.
