Yes to 5.5” display! But keep your foldable half. I want my mini back.
 
I am running and loving iOS 18, iPad OS 18, and Sequoia :cool:
I had a bug in iOS 18, took it to the Genius Bar, and they "fixed" it by plugging it into a Mac and updating my phone to iOS 26. I don't blame the tech (the issue went away), but oh my gosh has 26 been an exercise in frustration. I have never submitted more forms to apple.com/feedback in my life. Besides bug fixes, the biggest feature I want in 27 is the ability to "Disable Liquid Glass" altogether. What a waste of space.

What's maddening about them abandoning the Mini is that they waited forever to release an updated small phone. iPhone SE launched March 2016. iPhone SE 2nd gen didn't come out for FOUR YEARS (April 2020). My theory is that a lot of folks wanting an updated small phone bought that. iPhone Mini launched a few months later (October 2020). I think the iPhone Mini was a flop because Apple cannibalized it with what would have been its primary market. They should have waited to launch the SE until after the Mini launch. I can't stand the giant pieces of lead-weighted toast we have to lug around. I thought I broke my toe not long ago when I dropped my iPhone 16 Pro on it.
