You seem very set on Apple giving up immediately.

The 5c failed because it was just a 5 with a candy coated shell in a world where the 5s existed.

The 14 and 14 Plus aren’t that. Again, I refer you to my statement that I would have purchased the 14 Plus if I didn’t already have this 13.

Historically, Apple’s larger phones have sold very well. The 8 plus and 7 plus and 6/6s Plus models, for example.
