As a mini fan, I don't know when I'll get my next iPhone. I've tried (and returned) the 16 and the Air. I don't want a phone that I can't type on one-handed, and for me that means sticking with the mini.
I hate that Apple is no longer providing security updates on iOS18 except to devices that cannot run 26 (like the X). Everyone says that 26 is lousy on all but the newest devices, so I am not going to update. But that means that my new AirPods don't have Find My, and I can't use the new AirTags either.
Ticky-tack moves like this tell me that Apple knows adoption is slow, and they're doing everything they can to force people to upgrade OS (or device). For us small-phone lovers, it's a no-win situation.
