The iPhone 13 Mini takes up less room in your hands and pockets than the iPhone SE, and it's even lighter, too. It even has a larger 5.4-inch screen compared to the iPhone SE's 4.7-inch screen.
Apple discontinued the iPhone 13 Pro when the 14-series handsets came out in fall 2022; it then dropped the 13 mini in fall 2023, and finally killed off the standard iPhone 13 in fall 2024.
