Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought this phone because I had a screen issue on my iPhone X and needed to send my X to Apple to get repaired. I was in full panic mode trying to figure out what I was going to do. Almost every option had me buying another phone and having a different number, then notifying everyone that I had a different phone number temporary. I use my phone for both personal and work use. When I found the unlocked iPhone SE on Best Buy it was a blessing! After much research I found I could take my SIM card from my iPhone X and put it in the unlocked SE and still have my same phone number and apps. This got me through the period when I sent my X to be repaired by Apple. I did have to edit what was transferred from a recent backup as my X is 256 GB and the SE was only 64 GB. The iPhone SE is very robust with the latest processor that Apple has. The battery life is lacking though. Having this phone for around a month, I've had to charge it once every two days, and sometimes every day compared to my X, which was maybe once a week. Other than the memory and the battery life, the SE is a keeper. Now that I have my iPhone X back from repair I'm going to tuck this away until I need it again, like the spare tire I have on my Jeep

The phone is really good for people with not many needs. Got it for my dad since he already had an Iphone 6 and doesn’t care about tech that much but is comfortable in using iOS and so decided to ho with this phone since its cheap and with latest Upgrades. He doesn’t care about the bezels so Iphone XR would have been expensive without any much appreciation. Phone works really good and is so light. The 128gb is a good option with 50$ extra however I took the 64gb one since I know he won’t be needing 128gb.

After months of use, I’d recommend this iPhone for people who want 5+ years of software updates from Apple, the latest chip, & all in a compact form factor vs the larger Apple devices where one handed use is a lot more difficult. Touch ID is also a huge plus in this day & age over Face ID when you’re always wearing a face mask.

Same size as my drowned 6s so still fits in shirt pocket. Came with old iOS so had to update iOS in order to restore backup (not documented!) headphone port is power connection so can’t use old headphones and can’t use new headphones with backup battery plugged in, but that would be rare. Picture and battery life is excellent.

Great camera and value Priced very well works very easy

I bought this as a uber/doordash phone, and it makes me proud. It plenty fast and works perfect, never misses a beat. As a Android user for my real phone I like having this as a backup, and it's been good. Love the size, has most of the features from the new iPhones, but is just more simple.

Best value iPhone for your money, hands down. I’ve used several Apple devices and this has the best performance so far, even comparable to the iPhone 11 but at half the price of the iPhone 12. Good budget iPhone without compromising performance if you don’t need all the frills of the newer models.

I bought this iPhone just so that I can keep up with my kids' iPhone, share purchases, approve and set ScreenTime and other features related to family. It runs great, battery life could be a bit better, but it's a nice little compact phone. I thought the screen size would bother me, but it's actually nice for a change since I can actually fit the phone in my pocket without it being awkward.

My first and only Apple product. Also my first Smart phone. Have been using Samsung and Android for years. Nice having all my email, text, camera, FaceTime and phone all in one, plus some good apps. The SE price made the decision to buy it.

I bought this as a college graduation gift for my daughter and she loves it! It takes great pictures, has a fast processor and the red design looks cool. She liked it so much, I got one for my dad too! I'm even considering one for myself. As low as it's priced, it really is a steal of a deal.

After 5 years with the same iPhone 6s, I was more than overdue for an upgrade. I desperately wanted a new iPhone, but I didn’t want to break the bank for one. Luckily for me, the iPhone SE made its entrance into the world. I am EXTREMELY pleased with the affordability of this phone as well as what you get for your money. Thank you Apple!!!!

I have owned several iphones over the years, I hate that Apple selectively kills your battery life or the ability to upgrade the software just to make you buy a new phone but that is what they do. This phone is finally one that doesn't look or feel like an ipad. It has a normal size.

I bought this phone for my 6 yr old daughter and it was perfect! The size is just right for her small hands. It is easy to use and perfect for younger kids and the price is affordable. I was not going to pay over a 1,000 dollars for a phone for a year old.

I have been using the phone for over 6 months and it still works good. The price was very good. The camera takes good pics for a phone. The only small complaint is the battery does not hold a charge as long as I would like, but then I put a lot of screen time.

Perfect small phone to add minute package to yet still allowing all smart features. Purchased made for special needs adult that was familiar with ipad. No issues in teaching her how to use this. She loves it and that she can have apps like disney on the go.

This phone has performed perfectly. If you don't like or want facial recognition this is a perfect iphone option. Has touch ID only. Small size makes it easy to use with one hand too.

What a great upgrade! Had an iPhone 7 that wasn’t holding a charge well. Needed a replacement. Better memory, better performance, right around the same size......I mean if I wanted to carry around a tablet, I would, but this is a great phone size!

This phone is great !! It’s a beautiful color and it was extremely easy to set up! I love the size of it and it’s definitely been able to withstand some drops. I’ve always gone with iPhones and I never regret my purchase !

Bought this for my father to replace his iPhone 6. He loves its and with a faster processor and slightly better camera he is doing well. The inclusion of a home button can not be taken for granted. At this price point you are not going to be disappointed.

This phone is everything I look for in a phone. Fast. Reliable. Excellent cameras. Nice build quality. I’m not always on my phone 24/7 so the size of the display doesn’t matter much to me. This iPhone SE nails the basics and does much more.
