    This phone was purchased as a back up for the family. My daughters I-Phone screen shattered. My children all manage their schedules, class and work through their phones. Two of my girls attend well know colleges at which the closest apple stores are 5 hours away. The I-Phone SE is an affordable way to have a back up.

    I have been very happy with the iPhone SE so far. It has a good camera and is a fairly fast phone for the low price it is sold at.

    I purchased the iPhone SE to replace an iPhone 5 that had water damage. The SE is performing well and is the same size as the 5 so all of the protective cases still fit. I transferred the the glass screen protector from the 5 to the SE as well. I'm glad the SE is still available as an option to the 6 and 7.

    He didn't want a smart phone. He didn't need a smartphone. But when I went to the store to get my new iPhone, I could see the envy in his eyes...and he bought his own iPhone. The learning curve on a new phone has always been a problem but this was really easy. He even found an alarm ringtone that we all can hear.

    I needed to replace my iPhone 3 before our planned trip to Europe. I purchased iPhone SE 16GB at Best Buy. It was the perfect size phone for me and it had all the features that I needed and wanted. I have been pleased with my purchase and I recommend it to anyone looking for a new cell phone.

    I like the size of this phone much better than the iPhone 6 that was stolen. Apps seem to freeze up quite often.

    I absolutely love the new iPhone SE. It is just as good as the iPhone 6S but much less expensive, especially if you are buying iPhones for the whole family. The camera is awesome and download time is great. I do recommend the 64Gb over the 16Gb. A lot more storage for just a few bucks more.

    I bought this phone as a adjunct to my iPhone 6sPlus. It is smaller, easily fits into jacket pocket. At Best Buy I was assisted by Savonn. He was extremely helpful and patient with me, taking the time to sync both iPhones and to highlight the new features provided by the iPhone SE.

    Who can go wrong with an iPhone SE? I dislike big phones and the SE is as powerful as the iPhone 6s yet small enough to fit in my pocket. I still wish they'd make a phone as small as the old iPhone 4s, but it is great to have modern speed in a smaller sized phone like the SE.

    I use my phone for personal use. It is perfect for me to make and receive calls, texts, and emails. I use it to check out some social media. I wanted a simple smartphone and this suits my needs. I had an iphone 6 previously, I can't tell any difference from the 6 to the SE.

    I have had many iPhones (3G, 4s, 5, now the SE) and I have never had many issues with them. I was bored of them and wanted to try something different last time I upgraded and tried out a Samsung Galaxy S6 and it was the worst phone I ever had. I owned it for one year and had a replacement (which wasn't any better) and decided I'd pay both mine and my wife's off ($600) just so we could get some iPhone's back. Ohh how I missed this phone haha.

    I love this size of the iPhone series. It's fits into my pocket perfectly and I can text using one hand easily. I'm glad they fixed the heating issue the original 5 had. And all the updates feature were a plus

    I think that the iPhone SE is a beautiful Apple product, especially for the cheapest AT&T monthly Next plan. The color is beautiful and the size is perfect. I love the touch ID to open & unlock the phone and buy things without having to put in my id.
