It is undeniable that smartphones have become bigger and bigger with the passage of time and this has depended on the increase in the features they are able to offer, especially in the workplace. Despite the obvious convenience of a large display, more and more users continue to prefer smaller and smaller devices Apple, which has always been very attentive to the needs of the market, decided to release a compact iPhone model last year, calling it 12 iPhone Mini. Featuring a display by 5,42 " diagonal and from a technical data sheet that has practically nothing to envy compared to its older brothers, the little one of the Cupertino company has proved to be a flop in terms of overall sales on the market, according to what is exposed by a report. of the Japanese news agency Nikkei.
The indiscretion provided by the Asian portal would seem to suggest that Apple has decided to cut production of the Mini model scheduled for the first half of 2021, asking its suppliers to set aside stocks of components necessary for the production of about 75 million smartphones (including iPhone 11, iPhone SE e iPhone XR) instead of 100 million as originally planned. Some of the components and parts for the Mini model will also be reallocated on iPhone 12 Pro e iPhone 12 Pro Max, which, on the other hand, are in excellent health on the global market. Assuming that the veracity of this information is confirmed, it is particularly interesting to note that the cheapest iPhone currently available is also the least desired by users.
At the root of this failure could be competition from other iPhone models such as the SE which, at a significantly lower price, still manage to provide high performance without sacrificing ergonomics. At the moment the Cupertino company has not commented on these rumors and therefore we warmly invite you to consider them only indiscretions, pending any confirmations on the fate of the mistreated iPhone 12 Mini.
