    iPhone 13 Mini in Works?

iPhone 13 mini (or the iPhone 12s mini) can be in plans for Apple’s 2021 lineup, according to a tipster. The company is still expecting to work on the smaller iPhone models in the works. However, it is surprising despite poor sales records of the iPhone 12 mini that debuted alongside the iPhone 12 series. According to reports, the company did not meet sales expectations for the iPhone 12 mini.

However, that disappointment is not likely to affect the company’s roadmap for 2021. As it can still have the iPhone 13 mini version amongst other models. Tipster Jon Prosser claims in his video on YouTube that Apple is working on the follow-up of the iPhone 12 mini. Moreover, irrespective of the poor results it received from last year’s model.

In addition, Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo last year notes that the iPhone 12 mini didn’t meet the expected demand. Reports also suggested that it is only six percent of the total iPhone sales during October and November. JP Morgan supply chain analyst William Yang even predicts that iPhone 12 mini production can discontinue by the second quarter of 2021 due to weak demand.

However, several reports in the past suggest that Apple will follow the same 4-model lineup that it introduced last year. Additionally, Prosser said in the video that the arrival of the iPhone 13 mini might help Apple. One of the reasons for not meeting expectations with the iPhone 12 mini is muted demand for smaller versions of flagship devices these days.

Moreover, Analyst firm Counterpoint recently said that screens under 6-inch accounted for around 10 percent share of all smartphones sold. But nonetheless, the news about the launch of the iPhone 13 mini may excite people who’re looking for the successor to the iPhone 12 mini. Apple hasn’t yet provided any details about iPhone 13 series (or what some people believed as the iPhone 12s series).
