It's too bad the 13/14 mini is going away. That being said I think the SE should be plenty for me. Edit : To phrase this a bit better, it's too bad the "mini" model doesn't seem likely to continue into past the 13 mini.

The iPhone 14 mini doesn’t exist so I’m not sure how it can be “going away”. As for the 13 mini, where’s your source that says it’s being discontinued as opposed to the ‘mini’ line just simply not continuing after the 13’s lifespan?

The new iPhone SE looks like a really solid phone. The only thing it doesn't really have compared to the 13 is the better camera and the larger form factor / fancier screen tech. And weirdly there doesn't seem to be much in the Android world at that price point anymore.

I have the current iPhone SE, and I was hoping for MagSafe and precision finding of AirTags, but from the presentation it is unclear if the new model got either of these.

It's a shame it's still using the 2014 design. I don't really care about the camera or the screen tech, but the form factor looks actively retro compared to every other smartphone out there (and every other Apple product (okay except the cheapest plain iPad)).

I have the 2nd gen and it's been pretty great. I think they should last for at least 5 years.
