It's just different enough that us old folk have a period of adjustment but I'm very happy with my purchase. the camera takes good photos, as did my old 6s, and the battery holds up much better that the old phone's ever did.
It's a major upgrade requiring a significantly lower price than the 11s or 12.

I got this phone because My IPhone 7 just stopped charging and They done everything and said they don’t know why maybe it’s a bad chip so I had to get a new phone and lost pretty much everything and this was the closest phone to what I Liked and was used to so far it’s working alright

This phone is nearly identical to my old 6s (even using the same case), but is a substantial upgrade in every way – particularly the processor. This is the best-bang-for-the-buck value Apple has offered in a while.

I got this phone because the microphone on my iPhone 7 broke. Th said I would notice a difference in speed and battery but I honestly haven’t. For the price, I am not going to complain though. I have a new updated iphone- and the Touch ID is great- I will never buy an iPhone without it.

Best Buy delivered in 1 day compared to AT&T which would have taken a week! And BB had a better price, all in all very pleased with a great Apple iPhone at an amazing price.

It was time to retire my iPhone 6s. I wanted an iPhone 11 but the price to mea was excessive. So the SE was perfect- some of the same as the 11 but for less money.

Easy to operate. Don’t recommend buying phone if you can help it during pandemic. They can’t move your pictures or contacts. Got it done myself. Some people might not be able to. Phones are almost a necessity now but shouldn’t be so costly

I had purchased this same phone late last week, and the ear speaker had went out in two days, I took it in to the location I had purchased from and I could not of had better service. The young man who helped me took care of everything in about 15 minutes gave me a brand new phone no questions asked and sent me out the door with a free screen protector for I had one on the old phone I’d had purchased last week. Thank you so much !

Once again Apple does not disappoint. This cell phone came in a smaller size and fits in a pocket easily. As with any Apple product great quality.

The requirements by AT&T that did not allow me to pay the complete price of the phone on my Best Buy credit card was frustrating. Also was required to provide info that I did not know about regarding my wife's phone plan with AT&T that almost required a second visit before I could get my IPhone 23. It would have been helpful if Best Buy would have alerted me to the potential need for information when I scheduled my appointment. However, the associate was very helpful in a very stressful situation with the one hour appointment limitation.

Great battery life and clean, clear screen, but could do with either a little bit smaller size or ear buds that could plug in while charging the phone (lightning cable ear buds drag down the rating).

Going from Android to iPhone is a big change. I've only had it 10 days. Overall, I really like the phone. Nice size, same as my Samsung.

Purchased this phone for my son because I already have one. The weight of the phone is great and the camera is decent. Since my son is not into pics but more into games, the phone is perfect.
