I snagged this during Black Friday weekend for only $99 dollars--it was a great steal! I bought it for my young teenage daughter to use basically as an inexpensive iPod Touch (the comparable price of a 32gb iPod Touch was double at $199!). Even at the regular price of $159 it's a great buy. We've been using it since Christmas day and it functions just as well (actually, the battery life is superior!) to the iPod Touch 6th generation we already have at home. We just didn't activate the phone, and it's no problem at all; it doesn't try to remind us to do it constantly (or ever, at all). We've had a couple of cheap prepaid Android phones (a couple of Samsungs and one LG) that we used the same way (didn't activate, just used with Wi-Fi) and those brands always would bother us with numerous prompts to activate the phone. iPhones don't do that at all. It is an excellent phone at an unbelievable price. I'm already planning to buy another one, just as an additional one to have because the price is so good.

I switched back to Apple after several years on Android. I don't necessarily prefer one platform over the other; I just get bored and like to change things up a bit. One thing I knew for certain, is that I didn't want a gigantic brick of a phone that the latest models tend to be nowadays. The last iPhone I owned was the iPhone 4, and one of my favorite characteristics of its design was the small form factor. Enter the iPhoneSE. All of the speed and power of an iPhone6, but with none of the bulk. You get the A9 processor, 32gb of storage, and iOS 12. My only complaint about Apple products is the lack of MicroSD expansion options. All things considered, I am enjoying a small form factor again, and being able to one-hand/one-thumb the entire screen is great.

My wife had an iPhone 5S that was starting to need a replacement. The SE kept the same body, allowing her to re-use her preferred case. Having speedier internals and a better camera were noticed by her as well.

I purchased this phone for my daughter. The set-up was horrendous but the phone is actually very nice. You can use this phone with Tracfone if you call them for the switch.

This is a great phone for a good price new. For those that love the iphone UI but not the price tag Total Wireless is selling the SE at a price way way below apple's price tag. Also, total wireless has given me good service in the one month I have been using them. The customer service is pathetic, but it is a budget company that happens to have good service. Additionally, the phone can be unlocked after 1 year of continuous service so theres always that route too. This is my plan, as I left my family plan to use total wireless with the intention of going back after they unlock. The lack of wireless tethering on TW is disappointing, but its also the norm on these kinds of service providers. That all being said, the SE is a solid phone with hardware that will serve anyone looking for a cheap way into the applesphere. With 32 GB of memory its enough for the basics and can hold many apps and run them with zero issues. Everything is here in the SE. Touch ID, a headphone jack! (the last model to feature this), a pair of headphones+charger included, great camera, amazing call quality. Overall I have been very pleased with this phone and service and couldn't ask for much more considering the price.
