Customers are saying

Customers often highlight the iPhone SE (2nd generation)'s affordability, compact size, and user-friendly interface as positive aspects. The phone's camera quality, ample storage, and wireless charging capabilities are also well-received. However, some users express concerns about its battery life, while others lament the removal of the headphone jack and the outdated design.

    This was the perfect phone for me. I didn't want to pay for camera resolution I would never use. This is perfect iPhone for someone who enjoys the iOS experience but does not want to pay extra for features on the iPhone 11 they don't need.

    I bought this over the iPod touch since Apple won't supporting the touch for much longer. I have to say for the price point this thing is pretty awesome. Battery life isn't the best but it does have quick charge which is nice.

    Formerly an android user. Been wanting to try the iPhone for a while now. Very happy that Apple finally has an affordable iPhone for those that don’t have a lot of money available.

    I bought this iPhone SE in 2020 and found iPhone SE is still value for money today in 2022 because this will work very well even I have used for quite long. However, the data storage is quite limited and unable to use for longer than 2 years.

    I am an Apple fan and this phone did not disappoint. Some features took a while to adjust to, compared with my last phone, iPhone 6S Plus, but overall it’s very impressive. I love the amount of storage I now have!

    My daughter’s old iPhone 8 needed a new battery but Geek squad refused service due the slightly cracked screen. Service guy turned us on to this replacement. Happy so far. Half the price of the 12 models.

    The iPhone SE is a great choice for me. I upgraded from an iPhone 6 and the new phone fits my old case pretty well. This phone is fast and runs the latest operating system and applications.

    This is the iPhone 11 inside a iPhone 8 body! My first experience with apple home button has Touch ID but not face id. Best iPhone for it discreet look in the sea of all multiple camera designs!

    Purchased this phone for our daughter and it has been exactly what we wanted for her. The phone has many of the same features as the iPhone 11 just minor things not included. If your looking for an iPhone with all the main apps and features this is the one and for a good price.

    This was a nice upgrade from my iphone 7. Only had it a short time but happy with it so far. I wanted a new phone but couldn't really afford all the bells and whistles of the iphone 12.

    I am a IPhone SE fan. I don’t care about what this years $1000-$1500 phone is. Ridiculous! I bought the first generation SE and used it for 5 years before the battery decided to not last more than 15 minutes. This phone is one for the world. I am actually buying another one for my stepson.

    I can see why it’s getting such good reviews. It’s got the bionic chip, a nice screen and a decent camera for 1/3 the price of the fancy phones

    I had to buy a new phone because my 5S died . I selected the SE2 because Apple products have been durable and reliable. This model was affordable.

    I got this for my 14yr old daughter who had been struggling with smaller prepaid models limited to 32gb memory. More so my card constantly being charged 99c for extra storage. Bought this unlocked 128gb product red for her, definitely know she will enjoy it. We use simple mobile and only had to transfer the apple ID over to this new model and sim card and back in business. She is loving it!

    I needed a new iPhone and I was torn between the 11 and this SE. Very glad with my choice, especially in the price difference. Best Buy was great to work with on the purchase.
