What would you cut? The Mini has become more expensive because of RAM and SSD prices. There isn't much you could cut to get down to Neo prices.

Maybe just run on an A18Pro instead of one of the M processors. If you're not needing a screen, I think the actual box could be quite small too. Maybe the size of an iPhone. One or two USB ports.

I guess you could build it into a keyboard if you wanted to, but I don't like the apple keyboards so that would be a downside for me.

You may be confusing Honda with Subaru and Mazda who are both using Toyota's hybrid systems.

Honda's hybrid, including their version of eCVT is entirely different.

And peas was both singular and plural like fish.

"I ate a single peas" "I ate many peas"

People thought it was a mistake and generated "pea" for a new singular.

I tried "turn off the lights in [room a] and [room b]" in the new Siri app and rather than Siri saying they can't do compound commands they just turned off the lights in one of the two rooms listed.

So, progress?

Any agent with the Home Assistant MCP hooked up can do it fine.

Now playing "Turn Off the Lights" by Teddy Pendergrass on Apple Music.

In Seattle, I have not seen any instances of mm. It is probably very localized.

Are there any actual small phones on the market, now?

Not that I’ve seen really, but I haven’t looked much outside the mainstream as my 12 mini is still going strong.

But seems I’m either in a real minority with regards to phone size preference, or at least the manufacturers believe I am.

Maybe you’re in the minority; but you’re not alone. I went the hassle of signing in on mobile just to upvote you! Sincerely from a 13 mini user, still grumpy about having to give up my se 1.

People that want small phones, me included, are unfortunately a vocal minority. The small flagship phones just don’t sell that well. Loved my iPhone 12 mini and rode it until Apple Intelligence was announced and I got suckered in because I love exploring AI.

My suspicion is small phone users buy phones less often, and thus are less represented by the market. This may be borne out if a company randomly produces a small phone and it proves popular

The 2022 SE is still supported with latest iOS and works fine for me. No need to cling to a SE1.

Same here. It’s a market that would sell millions of units per year like the mini did, just not hundreds of millions like the remaining iPhone linup combined.

There are dozens of us. Dozens.

The modern "flip" foldables like the Samsung Flip and Moto Razr let you do a lot on the front cover screen these days. When folded they are pretty comparable to early smartphones, like a wider more square Palm Pre.

There's a few small traditional phones from companies like Unihertz but they don't have the same support or power.

Unihertz Jelly series makes being small their whole selling point. They're not just average sized, they're small small. You could wrap your whole hand around it. Often suggested to help combat phone addiction because apparently smaller screens do something for that.

Which has been my take on why there are no more small phones. Manufacturers noted that bigger phone equals more engagement. I am still on my 2022 iPhone SE for this reason.

Not branded/high end ones sadly.

It depends on what your definition of "small" is. If you consider the iPhone 13 mini as small the only thing that comes to mind is the Unihertz Jelly Max.

quite a few: Qin has some models. Sometime there are some startup on kickstarter that do small phone. Ikko mind one

I think we already have enough technology to make a mobile phone that is thinner and smaller than current ones.

Liquid Glass has been refined significantly in the 27 OS's and you have more control over the degree of transparency. Overall stability and performance are better as well.

> Liquid Glass has been refined significantly

I’ll take significantly removed.

What’s there to refine - Liquid Glass is the single most pointless, wasteful, accessibility destroying ‘feature’ I have ever seen

Shipping times have been increasing over the last several months.

All too often those have bad environmental impacts of their own. Coconut oil ends up being grown in plantains that require clear cutting natural forests. The agricultural process to plant, grow and harvest sunflowers produces significant CO2 just as it does for growing corn for ethanol.

I don't think anyone grows extra coconuts for fuel. It's processed from the waste after the more profitable parts are extracted.

I'm a little surprised at how little difference there is.

Yes, some of the colors shift due to the false-color addition of the UV channel but there were no new patterns or highlighted areas.

Check the budgie.

>The common parakeet or budgie has some interesting UV features. There is a small UV reflective patch on the chin, which appears dark violet to humans. Also, unlike most yellow birds, the yellow feathers on the head of the parakeet strongly absorb ultraviolet light.
