Apple No Longer Sells Any Small iPhones

With the discontinuation of the iPhone SE today, Apple no longer sells any "small screen" smartphones.

iphone se 1
The smallest iPhone Apple now sells is 6.1-inches, with the iPhone 15, iPhone 16e, and iPhone 16 all coming in this display size. The ‌iPhone 16‌ Pro has a 6.3-inch display, the iPhone 15 Plus and ‌iPhone 16‌ Plus are available with 6.7-inch displays, and the ‌iPhone 16‌ Pro Max features a 6.9-inch display.

All of the discontinued iPhone display sizes with the device that introduced them are listed below:

  • 3.5-inches: iPhone (first-generation, 2007)
  • 4-inches: iPhone 5 (2012)
  • 4.7-inches: iPhone 6 (2014)
  • 5.5-inches: iPhone 6 Plus (2014)
  • 5.8-inches: iPhone X (2017)
  • 5.4-inches: iPhone 12 mini (2020)

With no iPhones left on sale with a display smaller than 6-inches and no rumors about any smaller devices in the pipeline, Apple seems to have abandoned the small-screen smartphone market entirely.

I'll be holding onto my Mini for as long as possible if there is not going to be a suitable model to upgrade to.

The SE was not a “small phone”, which is why people who ask for small phones don’t buy it. When we say “small”, we mean “small”. Like iPhone 4s was the last phone I could use one handed. Give me an iPhone 4s sized phone, and people who want small phones will buy it.

I went from iPhone SE 1st gen to iPhone 15 regular last year.
Waaay to big and heavy, and still useless to work with it.
I was hoping the new (S)E would be smaller and lighter, but again they went for "the bigger the better".

Do you guys seriously want a big sized phone? I mean, if you wanna watch videos, don't you wanna something much bigger, like an iPad or Mac (or tv, for the matter) ?

I don't get it.

I have not lost hope on future iPhone mini, but... damn they make it hard!
