Thanks Sieghard, I appreciate this.
I will check the 13 Pro and 14 Pro out and definitely hold them before I
decide.
I'm not out for the most expensive phone I can get. But on the other
hand, since I don't plan to get one of these every year or two, I do
want to get a good one that will last.
Basically, I do want a high end model in a small package, not a big slab
I have to carry around.

I would recommend the iPhone 13 Mini, but before you decide I'd take a look at
the 13 Pro if money is not a huge concern. You could of course also consider
the latest 14 Pro, but that would for you to decide. Here are a few reasons why
I suggest 13 Mini or 13 Pro/14 Pro:
1. The SE third Gen is probably a fine phone, but it still has a Touch Id
virtual home button. I know many people buy it for exactly that reason, but
personally while having both Touch Id and Face Id would be best, if I had to
decide between Touch Id and Face Id I would choose Face Id. There is also the
fact that the Se third Gen may very well be the last phone with a home button
and Touch Id unless (as I said earlier) they introduce under display Touch I
dat some point in addition to Face Id. I am saying this because I just read an
article where John Prosser, who has a pretty good track record with his
predictions, is revealing first information about the iPhone SE 4th Gen which
is expected to be released next spring as the new lowe cost iPhone. According
to that article that new iPhone SE may look a lot like an XR with a big notch,
but it appears that the home button may go away and since I doubt Apple will
put a Touch Id capable side button on any phone I guess this means it will of
course have Face Id. I would get used to using a phone without home button from
the start even though having an iPad you of course would be used to a home
button, but if this rumour about the fourth generation SE is true then it means
we will never again see an iPhone with a home button.
2. I mention the 13 Pro or 14 Pro because you should really check them out and
hold them in your hand and compare then to an iPhone 13 Mini. They really are
not all that much larger physically, but you get the benefit of the LiDAR
sensor which is required for features like door detection and maybe other
things in the future.
Lastly, I wouldn't buy an SE because I think having the ability to use MagSafe
accessories such as charging pads, cases and external batteries is very nice
and to my knowledge not even the third Gen iPhone SE has MagSafe. I assume the
13 Mini has it, but definitely the 13 Pro and 14 Pro have it.

Hey Guys,
I meant to mention that I saw an iPhone 13 Mini not too long ago that looked
like just the thing if I want a small model, but someone else told me that they
weren't making newer models of that one.
Is that true?
Thanks much.
Evan
