Apple kills the iPhone mini, here are the prices of older iPhones, Apple Watches

As expected, Apple has officially discontinued the iPhone 13 mini and will no longer sell it through its website. The 13 mini follows in the footsteps of the 12 mini a year ago. Apple had already slashed production multiple times due to low interest in the mini iPhone.

What seemed like a great idea at first - a truly tiny, modern iPhone, proved a dead end for Apple. People simply didn't want small screen phones, they wanted a Plus to go along with the Pro Max.

Those few mini holdouts will be able to find a 13 mini in the third-party retailer space for a while longer, but the days of truly compact premium phones are now numbered.

Now, Apple's smartphone lineup starts with the iPhone SE (2022) - $429/€529/£429/INR 49,900 - the iPhone 13 - $599/€729/£599/INR 59,900 - the iPhone 14 - $699/€849/£699/INR 69,900 - and iPhone 14 Plus - $799/€949/£799/INR 79,900 - and the new iPhone 15 models.

Apple will also keep selling the Watch SE alongside the new Series 9 and Watch Ultra 2. The Watch SE is $249/€279/£219/INR 29,900.
