It’s time to let my iPhone Mini go

It's not the Mini, it's me.

Nearly five years after it launched, the 13 Mini is still the best phone ever made. That hasn't changed; it's just that I changed. And as painful as it is to admit this, after using it again for a couple of weeks, I think it's time to put my iPhone 13 Mini to rest.

The Mini is an underdog. An outlier. It's a weird little phone that Apple tried to sell twice, couldn't, and promptly gave up on.
