Apple: Lets make a mini phone but put in the worse specs possible

FWIW - what I said is that a big smartphone with all of its amazing functionalities on board is addictive. I believe that to be a known and proven fact.
The better question would be: What is preventing people from finding 10-15 mins to charge a phone throughout the day, if battery life is that big of a priority?What are people doing on their phones that causes the battery not to last even a full day? Genuine question. (I probably charge mine once or twice a week, and I make next to no calls and send very few texts.)
If it weren't so, Apple and other manufacturers would still be happily making small phones, right ?It is a proven fact that a larger phone is more addictive than a smaller one, all else being equal?
Could you provide a link to the study, please?
Great suggestion, I do like the looks of the Razr.I saw some sort of super-small Razr phone at BB yesterday. Apparently Motorola thinks "small" might still be "in".

Instead, many if not most people are so greatly depending on / addicted to their smartphone screens that they continue to want them bigger and faster and what not.
Other people, perhaps, not so much.More people find larger screens more compelling for the things they do on their phones regardless of screen size, and a larger screen allows some people to do things on their phone that they would otherwise use some other device for.
My taste on food happens to be on the opposite side of the horizon.I eat food. Relatively often, actually. When I do, I prefer food prepared by trained and experienced chefs from high-quality ingredients, that provides the most enjoyable experience possible according to my taste. This does not make me a compulsive eater.
I also had this Motorola. What a great phone that was? Loved the "flip to answer a call"!Great suggestion, I do like the looks of the Razr.
I once had this Motorola that, at the time, was one of the smallest mobiles one could buy.
Admitted, its antenna was a bit awkward - even back then. But I loved the device nonetheless.

Not really though - it's getting on for double the weight of the SE1 and requires both hands to use it.You guys are all tempting to try out the RAZR+
Woot has brand new unlocked ones for $600
256GB, high refresh rate

Personally I can't say I get with the folding concept for a phone - it's more fiddling around every time you want to use it and feels twice as bulky in the pocket.
The iphone 13 mini is still not that mini btw, the name is a bit deceptive if you compare it to previous iphones.

I totally agree with you guys on this. The 13 mini is “mini” by today’s standards. If you look back at the earlier 3.5”-4” model screen sizes Apple should have considered them nano. If people want larger screens just get a tablet - not a phablet! This phenomenon that’s been going on the last decade or so still drives me crazy today.^^

The naming is extremely deceptive
Relative to the overall history of the iPhone lineup, the iPhone "mini" is huge and heavy
I honestly don’t believe Apple wanted the Mini series to succeed.Apple: Lets make a mini phone but put in the worse specs possible

Size is relative. I agree the mini is not mini by historic standards. In the same way a Mini Clubman car is by no means mini, especially compared to the original Mini.i bought the Iphone 13 mini because i like small phones.
I use my bank apps, investment app, google maps and Spotify.
Battery last me the whole day.
I want to tone down to a dumbphone, but i have no alternative for google maps on my moped/ in the car that works as well and is up to date.
I try to be a minimalist so having seperate devices for navigation etc are not something i want to do.
