In order to better cater to consumer market needs, Apple has actually made a lot of changes. The most intuitive way to feel is to cancel the mini version of the iPhone12/ iPhone13 series, and add the Plus version of the iPhone14 series.
The outside world gave some interpretations at that time. The more representative ones are: the original iPhone12mini or iPhone13mini, which performed well in terms of market sales. Therefore, to a certain extent, it indirectly confirms what it means to be "who is well received but not popular". Of course, Apple, which has a very strong brand influence, cannot be avoided.
However, the mini version of iPhone was cancelled in the new iPhone 14 generation, and what is shown in front of people is the iPhone 14 Plus. To be honest, when this phone has not been officially released and released, the outside world has high expectations for the iPhone 14Plus.
Even though it is reported that the iPhone 14Plus will not have major changes in hardware configuration, considering the large screen size and large battery capacity, many people are "ready" about the iPhone 14Plus and are always waiting to buy it.
However, it is surprising that the iPhone 14Plus broke the issue after it was officially released, and it was "complained" by netizens. As you can imagine, both the mini version of iPhone and the Plus version of iPhone have achieved poor results according to the current situation.
As the saying goes, "Small-screen iPhone 13mini users look down on it, and everyone is unwilling to buy large-screen iPhone 14Plus", which vividly shows that the two iPhones launched by Apple at different times encountered the same difficulties.
So, the small-screen iPhone 13mini looks down on it and the large-screen iPhone 14Plus is unwilling to buy it. What is the problem? I consulted an expert and the answer I got was very direct: configuration and price. Insiders said that although consumers nowadays show a lot of rationality when buying smartphones, one question cannot be ignored - whether there are any highlights that touch them.
Take iPhone14Pro as an example. Do you think there are any major changes in this phone compared to the iPhone13Pro model? Not. The Lingdong Island design, which has been discussed by the outside world, simply turns the shortcomings into advantages and then put them out to hype them up. However, what cannot be underestimated is that the existence of Lingdong Island, the "BUG", actually made iPhone14Pro and iPhone14ProMax.
In other words, if it weren't for the new interactions like Lingdong Island, some people might not have bought iPhone14Pro or iPhone14ProMax. With the same logic, we can find some situations when put on the iPhone 14 Plus: it is equipped with a full-blooded A15 chip, but it uses flash memory lower than the iPhone 13 Pro series, and the rear camera is only 12-megapixel dual camera. Even though the shooting ability of iPhone14Plus is not bad at all, ordinary users will not think so.
So, although the iPhone 14Plus uses a 6.7-inch screen and has stronger battery life, the price setting is too high, these originally highlighted configurations have become optional. In addition to this, insiders also said that the iPhone 13 mini had the same problem at that time: the small size originally felt very good, but the battery life and price became a "stumbling block" for consumers to buy this phone.
In fact, after listening to the insider's words, I think it makes sense. But if Apple provided the iPhone 13min with the functional configuration required by users at that time, or matched the functions mentioned by users to the iPhone 14Plus and maintained a relatively restrained rank in price, then would the iPhone 13min and iPhone 14Plus be very popular?
, it's really hard to say. After all, the needs of different users are different. Therefore, whether it is the iPhone 13mini or iPhone 14Plus, they have value and significance that cannot be ignored in the corresponding series of iPhone models.
