SE (2020) vs 12 Mini
how wide is the 12 Mini supposedly compared to the SE 2020?
it would have to be taller, but less wide to allow for the screen bigger diagonal right?
Wow, that’s a versatile lineup. I like it.
I’ve got a regular 11Pro and an SE2020. But even I can’t bring myself to replace both, and I’m completely nuts.🤣
I might replace the SE with the mini. It would be nice to go even smaller, gain a camera lens and maybe eke out a bit more battery life on the tiny form factor. But I need to see what they say about the cheaper BOE brand display before I make that call.
Same! It's anecdotal, but I really believe there's a market for a mini phone. Also, Apple needs to simplify their naming, and this is another step in the right direction.
They didn't. The 6/6S/7/8 had a PPI of 326, while the Plus models were 401.
The amount of stuff they are holding back on, it will have to be “Just 3 more things”!
Ya know, if you want to get your hands on the mini, you can do that in the shower on a cold morning.
Sorry, I just couldn't resist. Please don't take it the wrong way, it's nothing personal.
I'm looking forward to either the 6.1" 12 or the Pro, but not sure which one I'll go with. If the camera is the only thing that makes the Pro "pro" I'll go with the plain 12. I only take basic snapshots with my phone anyway.
Looking forward to the new retro design and 5G even if it's limited roll out right now. I all ready have a solid buyer for my Xr...
All these different naming conventions are becoming confusing.... they could quite simply have the same naming convention for all of their lines
Product / Grade / Year / Size (if needed)
With three grades of products:
SE / Standard / Pro
-
-AirPods SE / AirPods / AirPods Pro
Already have standard and pro lines, likely a cheaper line will come along.
-iPhone SE / iPhone / iPhone Pro
Already have all of these three.
-iPad SE / iPad / iPad Pro
The iPad becoming iPad SE, iPad Air just becoming iPad.
-MacBook SE / MacBook / MacBook Pro
MacBook SE if they bring back the standard MacBook, the MacBook Air just being called MacBook.
-iMac SE / iMac / iMac Pro
Similar to MacBook line if they introduced a cheaper iMac line
-
As for mini lines these are just on a per product line basis if one comes along... having this naming convention will set the standard...
SE - Cheapest
Standard - The main standard of the line
Pro - The best of the line with all extra bells and whistles
Mini - The standard but in a smaller package

apple for the love of god...
iPhone 12 - 5.4 and 6.1
iPhone 12 Pro - 6.1 and 6.7
that's IT...
iPhone 12 - 5.4 and 6.1
iPhone 12 Pro - 6.1 and 6.7
that's IT...
That's why I said "I would HOPE". Apple rarely does what I hope they would do. Haha.
yeah that image doesn't give me hope the 12mini will be $650.
Apple should just go ahead and price it $1000.... people will still buy it.
Dang... so they're actually gonna make me order a device called "mini" ?
Small guy feeling small right now

How would this be said out loud, iPhone 12 Minus (or Negative), assume it's iPhone 12 Plus?
So close... Why the pro max moniker though!?
iPhone XX -> iPhone Air
iPhone XX Pro -> iPhone
iPhone XX Pro Max -> iPhone Pro
Would be so much damn simpler!
iPhone XX -> iPhone Air
iPhone XX Pro -> iPhone
iPhone XX Pro Max -> iPhone Pro
Would be so much damn simpler!
You just gave credence to my theory that Apple is going to
Presumably they'll all have the same A14 processor... which will likely be the fastest smartphone chip in the world at that time.
So they'll all be supercomputers!
Because they want to use + for their paid services now.
The way Apple has gone with their marketing lately has made it very frustrating for me to know what I want anymore.
What I mean by that is, when the iPhone 6 to iPhone 8 were new, there were two sizes. the regular and plus models. It made it easier to choose which one was the right fit. With Apple's design changes starting with the X, I really don't know what to buy anymore when it comes to upgrading my phone. Right now my 7 Plus has what I need, and it works. It's going on 3 years with 92% Maximum battery health. I've considered switching to an android phone just because there are more options where it matters to me. But I like iOS, but don't like some of apple's physical design changes.
I suppose since my current iPhone is in great condition and it still works and meets my needs, I really don't need anything newer until what I have stops working.
