It will be the small iPhone 13 mini at the end. And it has an important (non) design innovation

Several months ago, there was information that the cheapest iPhone 12 mini was not in great demand, that the manufacturer had limited its production and that it was unlikely to see a successor.

But there is a lack of interest and disinterest. Yeah, IPhone 12 mini It is the least sought after iPhone of the 12th series Stats Couterpointu In January of this year, three models of the series were the best-selling smartphones in the world, with significant progress. The greatest interest is the 12th model, followed by the two more expensive models, that is iPhony 12 Pro Max a 12 Pro.

The cheapest 12 miniature cars are eighth in this ranking, so it’s lagging behind siblings. But it was still the eighth best-selling smartphone model in the world in January of this year. So the competition can only be envied, and Apple will be stupid if the center abandons the competition. After all, it is cheaper IPhone SE 2020 It was the tenth, and it still appears to be a significant enough device for Apple. Overall, Apple has already reached this position The second largest manufacturer of smartphones in the world.

So it is not surprising that the iPhone 13 mini is also equipped. The information comes from Many resourcesEven in China Find out an image of the prototypeIt is also found in the world It is provided by the Italian authors. Of course, nothing has been officially confirmed, there is still plenty of time until the premiere, and it will likely be showing conventionally in September.

According to the leaked information, the iPhone 13 mini will not be very different from the current model. Not surprisingly, the next generation iPhones are just an evolution of current models. It is Apple’s traditional approach.

The design of the photovoltaic unit must change. Instead of placing a pair of lenses underneath, the 13 miniature lenses are arranged diagonally. Which is evidenced by the displays and the photo of the prototype. It sounds unusual and adjustments can still be made, but there are likely reasons for this.

Apple needs to insert larger sensors into the unit, and the lenses below it probably won’t work. Another reason may be that the entire optical module may be slightly thinner in this configuration. So it will stand out less from the body of the phone.
