I also believe it's usually high(er) end model being smaller and people who want smaller phones want something cheaper. At least that's what's going on in my social bubble.

Yes. I was shocked at the price of the iPhone mini.

On the other hand I was genuinely torn between the pixel 7 pro and the pixel 7a when I lost my Pixel 5 because I wanted the pro features but the smaller size of the 7a. Ended up getting the pro because the size wasn't so far apart to make much of a difference, both were massive anyways compared to the 5.

But I bought second hand open box so maybe I'm not in the demographic that matters to Google.
