Based on previous conversations on this topic, I think the issue is that people don't actually prioritise the mini size above all else.

In other words whatever size the audience is for a mini phone they are further fragmented into people who want a flagship phone vs mid range phone vs budget phone.

And those market segments are too small to make it worth Apple or even most android manufacturers effort.

Turns out even they value other things more than the size.
