    So once again instead of providing choice the market is simply phasing out things with smaller profit margins as if they planned it together in some kind of cartel.

      Demand also isn’t there. The iPhone SE sold ok, but the other thing to keep in mind was that it was the cheap iPhone too so it’s supposed to sell.

      If it was outselling the main model every year then they’d keep making them small. But they didn’t so they got dropped.

        Why would they do that if they make more money on the main model? It’s not like you have a choice in iOS manufacturers.

      Not really, even the cheap phones have large screens now. There’s no correlation anymore between price and screen size, the cheap phones just have lower quality panels.

      I agree. I just worked there when I was younger. I no longer work there.
