I was fortunate to find a new 13 Mini on Ebay. Not at all easy to find. I can continue now with my perfect pocket companion. It's a shame Apple wouldn't continue to produce them. But, thankfully, I got one.
I snagged an old 5S on Ebay for $26. I miss them, it was the first new iPhone I ever ordered. got it recently to possibly give to my kid as an emergency phone. while holding it, I remembered how awesome the compact size was.
