I just posted the same thing. I think there are more of us than Apple thinks, at least I like to believe that. I think Steve Jobs was in that camp as well.

When the 12 mini was released I bought it and Apple sent me a survey. It seemed like have the questions were asking if I bought the mini because it was cheaper. It seemed like that was the assumption they were going with. I answered over and over again that I didn’t care about price, and if there were comments I wrote that I was price insensitive and cared about the size, not the price.

I get steep discounts on phone hardware through work, but if they released an iPhone 16 mini Pro tomorrow, I’d pay full price out of pocket, no questions asked.

I'm in the same boat. Want a small phone with premium features. My hope is that the next generation of iphone SE is at least on par with the 13 mini that I currently have. Otherwise, not sure what I'll do when my mini dies since the current SE is a pretty big step down from the 13 mini.
