Great Apple Product
|Posted .Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5I LOVE apple products, I went from an IPhone 7 to this IPhone SE and I’m loving the new bionic A13 chip, it is fast. The size of the SE is the same size as my IPhone 7, which is perfect for the small wristlets and purses that I normally carry. It is also bigger than the IPhone 12 mini and less money. For the difference between 4G and 5G appears to be negligible. I am very happy with this purchase.

Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Pros mentioned:SizeI bought this iPhone SE for my 11 yr old. He's been pestering me for a year for one. I finally broke down and got him this iPhone SE and he couldn't be happier. Easy to use and navigate, perfect size for a kids hand and pocket. I also got him a WSD glass screen protector and a clear Orbit otterbox style case on Amazon which works great together for maximum drop protection.

Long awaited, much needed.
|Posted .Owned for 1 week when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5I've been waiting for a new SE for quite some time. I was not willing at first to upgrade from the old SE due to size. Once it was available I was willing to upgrade especially based on the cost. I can not say a bad thing about the device thus far. It's incredibly snappy, and knowing Apple will support it based on the processor used is enough to keep me in this until SE3.

Good Upgrade and Price
|Posted .Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5I was finally ready to move up from the smaller screen original iPhone SE and this was the obvious next phone to have. I'm delighted with it. The screen is not just bigger but has a better picture quality so it's easier to see what's happening. Watching small figures and a ball during football highlights is a whole new experience. The sound quality is better too, I can now clearly hear individual instruments when listening to good quality recordings. Colleagues have commented on how much clearer the camera is during video conferencing. Also the quality of taken photos is so much clearer. There are new features such as portrait mode that blurs the background to emphasise the subject. Essentially it's similar to earlier IPhones but better is many ways.

Less Space in Pocket, More Money in Wallet
|Posted .Owned for 4 months when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5With cell phones getting more and more expensive, I decided to go cheaper. I had been upgrading to the larger plus models over the last several years. But, honest to God!, what do you want your phone to do? As far as functions go, I use this phone in exactly the same way my wife uses her iPhone 11, including streaming video, taking good pictures, sinking to our other smart devices, and other stuff. I know that there are things the iPhone 11 does that my SE doesn't, but I don't need those things. Before you upgrade to newest model with all the bells and whistles, think about whether you are actually going to use all that stuff. This $400 iPhone will meet your needs at a much cheaper price. You might even find this smaller phone that takes up less space in your pocket will also take up less space in your life!

Switrched from the 11 Pro to this
|Posted .Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5I switched from my 11 Pro to this and I'm not disappointed. I love the compact size of the phone and the A13 chip it has. I sacrificed battery life and camera quality but those features on this SE are still good enough for me. The other models are just too big to carry around in my pocket, to exercise with, and for one-handed operation, so this is perfect. I hope Apple continues producing SE models.

Q: QuestionIf I buy the iPhone SE unlocked, can I use my SIM card from my previous iPhone 6s to activate the carrier
Asked by Aaron.
- A:Answer Yes. Activation should be automatic. Just be sure to transfer content from your old phone to your new phone. Each carrier also has activation and transfer instructions available on their websites.

Q: QuestionWhat is the difference between this iPhone and the iPhone 10/11?
Asked by Ddfas47.
- A:Answer The SE has a smaller screen, battery, less RAM (3gb vs 4gb), lower quality camera, and is touch home button not face ID. The SE is a budget 11, and should still be very good, and is much cheaper.

Q: QuestionSeems only con for this phone is battery life. I have a iPhone 5 and needing to up grade due to apple slowing everything down and no more updates. SE looks good to me will battery life be as good with SE as with the 5.

Q: QuestionDoes the unlocked Iphone come with sim card? I know for a fact it does not, I bought many Iphones unlocked and NONE of them came with a SIM card inside. WHY WAS THERE A SIM CARD in my NEW IPHONE I PURCHASE ? the box was sealed !
Asked by Malik.
- A:Answer I agree that new unlocked iPhones do not come with a SIM card, in my experience. However, my new iPhone SE 2020 from Best Buy (in-store) was also sealed, and also has a SIM card, from Verizon. I confirmed the Model Number is MXCU2LL/A which is the unlocked version. Some other answers also discuss finding the Verizon SIM card.

Q: QuestionLooking to switch to iPhone from Motorola G3. How do I get my data to the iPHone? Does SIM card work?
Asked by MotoUser.
- A:Answer No the sim isn’t the right way to go. There’s an app to download on the iPhone called “move to iOS” once you have it, get both phones on WiFi and it will prompt you. Make sure you have enough room though!
Answered by ERock
Q: QuestionWhen I buy this phone is it brand new? Or refurbished?
Asked by Yemar.
- A:Answer Mine was brand new, sealed in a box. Oddly though, I asked for an unlocked phone with no carrier affiliation. The one I received had a Verizon SIM card already in it...I swapped it out with my SIM card and it worked fine.

Q: QuestionHow does this iPhone compare to the iPhone 8? I like having a touch button but I would like to get a new phone with more storage.
Asked by Liam.
- A:Answer This should be very similar to the 8 for you, but an upgrade in almost every way. The 8 had a 64, 128, and 256 gb version, so does this phone and the 11. If you have the 256 gb version of the 8, then the 11 pro or pro max would be the phone you should get if you want more storage. If you have the 64 or 128 gb version of the 8, the go up one size on this SE. Realistically I think most people should get either the 128 or 256 gb version of this.
