    Great size, screen, battery, and price. Bought for our 9 year old to use on WiFi. Don’t let the price fool you. Crazy nice phone and my oldest considered trading the youngest giving up an iPhone 11 because of the nice size of the SE.

    Lost my old Samsung S8 and decided to switch over to Apple because it was the cheapest of the ones that I was looking at and I love my new I Phone! So glad Apple still offers a phone that has a button on the bottom because I love my button!

    Cute little iphone! I you don’t like bulky phones this is it! So comfortable to hold and of course the responsiveness on iPhones are amazing. I had so many apps open and the phone wasn’t slowed at all. I like how affordable it is as well.

    I have not had it long, but it’s a little more power then my iPhone 8, and at 399, it’s appears to be a pretty good value, hey it gets on the net, you can text, and make a call, good enough for me, 1000 for a phone? No thank you

    Great phone. Purchased for my mom last year for mothers days. She previously had a 7 and wanted another iPhone that had the home button. This was a huge upgrade for her and it didn't cost too much compared to the 11's and 12's.

    This phone does the job. It was very inexpensive as cell phones go but is very fast and powerful. The camera isn't the best but it works to produce OK video. Battery life isn't great.

    My husband wanted a phone that would fit in his front shirt pocket. It’s an ok phone. Battery runs down fast. The camera doesn’t take very good pictures or video. I personally don’t like it, but I’ve got a bigger phone.

    I needed a new phone, so it did a good job of being one and its pretty smooth and fast. Although the battery is straight trash, i don't even have many apps downloaded because i don't do gaming or socail media and yet the battery remains to suck. I felt like i just bought a second hand iphone 6 with no lag and with a glassback .

    I do like my phone, but how do I get rid of all those extra apps that seem to be dragging my battery down? I am charging this on almost a daily basis? I thought I had to do that on my old phone because it was old and the battery smaller! I am finally getting used to the smaller size for texting..

    Apple quality, no compliant, meet expectation. The phone is excellent size for the small hand and the price is within the range. No issue with the battery. Hope it will last five years with its A13 core.

    Took my iPhone 6s swimming so needed a replacement. I liked the size and this SE is the same size and the price is affordable. I did need to order another cover as the camera didn’t line up with my existing 6s cover.

    It is the cheapest iPhone, but the quality is not the lowest. What I need is a well made cheap smartphone with good quality. This iPhone meets my needs. Apple did a good job! However, the battery is not good. When being fully charged, it only can last for 10-12 hours for normal use.

    Definitely a bit underwhelming in 2021, as far as the design/aesthetic goes, but for the price this phone has been a steal. At least when compared to the rest of the Apple iPhone lineup currently. I have had no issues with any6 aspect of this phone. Battery lasts close to a full day, if not a full day, (depending on use), a solid camera, access to all of the apps available in the App Store (not limited by phones software being outdated) and you know you will not have to worry about updating in 2 years because it is no longer supported by Apple. I’ll certainly be upgrading soon but that’s because I prefer a larger screen.

    THE Budget iPhone

    Summary sums it up. Just as the original iPhone SE, this new one gives users the specs of last year’s top end model in the form factor of yesteryear’s models with trade offs in camera quality. Does that make it a subpar device? By all means, no. This is essentially an iPhone 11 in the body of an iPhone 8, which, is honestly, not a bad combination. Most users will be just fine with the cameras, and the performance of the device is fairly snappy- what most users would expect from a device designed in Cupertino. If you need an iPhone but don’t have the budget for an iPhone 11 or above, this is the phone to get.

    Great camera, great for games and apps, and good battery life. Smart buy for those not wanting to spend an arm and a leg for a phone...especially for kids who tend to misplace things.

    I prefer a smaller phone to fit in my hand and I love that all apple products sync via iCloud. No effort was required to set up contacts, etc. For an iPhone, you can’t beat the price.

    The SE 2020 is a great device overall. Albeit a little boring. It's the same design we've come to know since the iphone 6. If asthetics don't mean anything to you and you are familiar with ios then you'll get along just fine with this device. Battery life could be better of course since it's a smaller battery and battery usage always depends on the user but it's snappy, apps load quick, it's pocket friendly and of course the best part..several years of updates. If you're looking to get into a modern iphone specs wise then this is your option.

    This has been a great phone. Easy to use. Easy to move all my data from the cloud to it. Good for gaming, pictures, videos and much more. I’ve used it for almost 2 years now and it’s battery still lasts over almost 2 days if I don’t stay on it 24/7 and use it like a regular person. Lol I’d highly recommend this. Only thing is I want a bigger screen now. Other than that it’s perfect!
