    Great phone which retains the home button and all the features of my existing I Phone 8 which makes the transition much less painful to this upgrade. I avoid upgrades for as long as possible due to the disruption they typically cause but the SE was a joy to change to.

    The iPhone SE has all the essentials of a late generation smartphone including the wireless charging and storage capability without the high cost. It is hard to justify spending more money for features not necessary for utility.

    I did the upgrade for better battery life and a better camera for a trip I was taking to Europe. I also wanted the wife to have a water resistant phone and within two months she dropped it in the toilet. Never happened before but the new phone saved the day.

    Bought this for my Daughter because well the price point could not be beat! It has all the latest iOS14 updates and it's super light weight which is what she wanted and her her color. We got it unlocked to put it on a carrier a sell for so it's a win win.

    good phone for what it's needed for, I bought this for my daughter and the smaller phone fits in her hand better than her sisters xr, and she still has all of the benefits of having an iphone and being easy for all of her apps in one place

    Upgrading from a 6S and wife wanted to keep a phone with a physical home button. Much better than the iphone 7 and 8s and at the same price, plus you get newer specs (iphone 11 spec equivalent).

    So far I’m enjoying new iPhone. Since I had a very old flip phone before, this is a new adventure for me. Since I have an iPad, I’m finding the iPhone easier to use than I thought it would be. Just wish you got an actual paper manual to go with it.

    Although I’m having some issues with saving contacts, I do really like the SE 2nd generation. It’s waterproof. But, I’m still using a LifeProof case on it to preserve the condition! The great thing about this phone is the camera. It’s amazing!

    Bought as a gift for my mother and she doesnt need the latest stuff like things featured on an iphone 12 so this was perfect. For the price still gives her the ability to use imessage email etc. Probably good for younger kids too

    I Had A 5S For Years I Didn't Want To Spend A Thousand Dollars So Picked Up A Cheap Samsung But Missed The IPhone. I Saw The New Iphone SE On My Email From Best Buy And The Price Was surprising $399.99 So I Bought One And I'm So Glad I Did I Love It.

    Was bought to replace an iPhone 6. I was looking to have the almost exact same style as the 6. And this one didn’t disappoint. It has the same features as the $1000 phone except for face idea and cameras. Glad I purchased this one.

    Bought product as a new update for the wife for Christmas. Nice Apple update from an older Apple 6. Easy to transfer contacts and wife had very little to do to learn how to work the new phone. She is very pleased.
