    I'm not one to upgrade my cell phone often. I just upgraded from the SE Gen 1 64 GB to this SE Gen 2 256GB. The extra storage capacity has truly rejuvenated my love for the iPhone. For quite some time now, I have been unable to even to take a picture with my Gen 1 due to being maxed out on storage. Now, I am FREE once again! I dislike the size of the phone. The perfect phone size to me was the 4/4S. I'll deal with it though since the storage and ability to be unlimited with what I can do with the phone is more important to me. I don't see much difference in the speed of the phone, nor do I see a major difference in the battery life. I believe it charges a little faster than the Gen 1, but not by much. Throughout the course of a typical day, I'll make a total of 30 minutes in phone calls and spend a decent amount of time performing internet-necessary functions on the phone (viewing mail, using apps, searching the web, etc.). The battery lasts from about 9am to 10:30pm or so (once it gets down to 10%, I'll charge it). Despite my gripes about not being able to take a picture on my Gen 1, I have yet to take a picture with the Gen 2, so I can't speak on the quality of the camera.

    Tested the radiation coming off the 5G, which I didn’t have on my 7 Plus and it’s super high but hey, everything is eventually moving to 5G any way. Ain’t nothing we can do about it. I just try and stay in airplane mode and use service off my WiFi when I’m at home. Other than that, the phone is quick, lightweight, and I loveeeeee the red color. I use it with an otterbox pursuit case with the clear back so you can see the red. I dig it. Way better than a plus for small hands.

    Bought this for my husband as he needed a new phone. Didn’t want to spend a lot as his phone takes a lot of abuse in his trade. It’s a great phone, has a lot of the 11 features for a lot less. If you don’t want to spend the money on an iPhone 11, you won’t be disappointed in this model.

    Love it. Easy to use and much faster than my last phone. A great value compared to the pricier iPhones. Camera still could be better though.

    I am used to using the older iPhones with touch ID and wanted something more old school for a lower budget when compared to the iPhone X or 11. I was very satisfied with this purchase. The device is quick and powerful, with a solid battery life. I got a clear case to show off the red color, and purchasing ProductRed supports COVID-19 research.

    Same usability as the 7 & 8, but with better speed and storage. Much better price than anything else available now.

    I love my iphone se 2nd gen. its got all the power of the 11 pro in a more compact and traditional style of iphone. Fingerprint sensor is way better than face ID during covid times. Apple released this phone at the perfect time. The display is good enough to still look good and provide great clarity.

    I love my new SE! I’ve been waiting for the new one to come out so I could upgrade. I was a little disappointed that it isn’t the same size as the first SE but, I will live.
