And as someone who owns and loves an iPhone 13 mini, this makes me sad.<\/p>\n<p>[&#8230;]<\/p>\n<p>First, let&rsquo;s consider the report that the iPhone 14 line will only feature a new A16 processor on the Pro phone models. So not only would the regular iPhone 14 models not get access to rumored innovations like an always-on display, they might not be any faster than the current-year models!<\/p>\n<p>[&#8230;]<\/p>\n<p>I really do believe the iPhone mini design will be back. One possibility is for Apple to simply alternate between iPhone models so that the mini appears one year and the Max the next. It&rsquo;s also not impossible that Apple might just bring the mini design back every few years since it obviously has a following&#x2013;just not a big one.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>This is &ldquo;my year,&rdquo; but my iPhone 12 mini is still going strong, and I can&rsquo;t see replacing it with model that&rsquo;s larger and has a year-old processor. At this point, my best guess is that this form factor will return in the next iPhone SE, though presumably that will also have iPhone 14&rsquo;s older processor. It would be nice to be able to get the latest processor and camera in the smaller size.<\/p>\n<p>Update (2022-07-10): See also: <a href=\"https:\/\/atp.fm\/489\">Accidental Tech Podcast<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jason Snell: If reports are true, the iPhone 13 mini will be the last of its line, replaced by a larger iPhone 14 Max this fall.
