Is there a world where the iPhone mini is necessary or desirable when the iPhone SE also exists? I don't see a need for both, especially when they run the same processor under the hood.

Optics on the 13 mini are significantly better!

Doesn't the SE have an significantly worse & smaller screen (not to mention camera), although it's a slightly larger package?

SE is clearly a 'budget' (at least for apple) phone. Some people really want a small phone that isn't.

The mini is a flagship phone with flagship specs and better design.

The newest SE is substantially larger and worse.

I love my mini, but it’s also clear this is the last one.

The current SE is bigger than the mini.

I use an iPhone SE 2016, which uses the same chassis as the iPhone 5/5s.

I tried an iPhone 6S for a year before I got this phone. Couldn't stand the size. The current SE is the same size as the 6S. I'm basically stuck at a dead-end of phone size.

The current SE is not compact by historical standards. I'm not saying all phones need to be smaller, I just want one decent option.

The iPhone SE is a full-sized phone. It just happens to be obsolete in the marketplace, and the other full-sized phones it competes against have become even fuller sized.
