I wanted to upgrade my 5S and needed more memory, but I really didn't want a larger size phone. The iPhone SE turned out to be just what fit my needs. At 32 GB it was twice the space I had, and with the faster processor, better camera, and iOS 11, I got an upgrade without an upsize. And at $349, it was much easier on the budget than the "latest greatest."

Upgraded my wife's phone from a iPhone 5. She likes having a small phone like the SE. She likes the camera and the improved speed of this phone. She wasn't sure if it was worth upgrading to this phone but now that she's had it for a while she loves it. I would definitely recommend this phone for those who like small phones that will easily fit in your pocket.

I needed to replace my (nearly) 5-year-old iPhone 5-C and am not comfortable with a large phone in my pocket. The SE was, therefore, recommended to me as a Technological Upgrade over my old Model. That is true! The Processing Speed, Battery Life, Storage, Camera/Video are basic upgrades. The size is identical, AND I was able to use the Case from my 5C. But, part of me does still wish that I got a bigger phone to accommodate these aging eyes.

The whole family are iphone users and daughter wanted to replace old iPhone 5C but did not want larger phone so opted for the SE. Very pleased with 32g as opposed to old 5C with 16g, better camera and faster processor. Recommend if you like iphone but don't want larger phone, or larger price!!

I got this for my daughter, she likes the small size of the phone, only slightly bigger than the iPhone 4. Plenty of storage for her stuff. The price is excellent compared to the newer iPhones and other types of phones.

I have owned iPhone 5s before switching to the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6s. While the latter two iPhones were great, I still preferred the "ideal" size of the iPhone 5s, so naturally when the iPhone SE was released I was really excited; and it did not disappoint! If you prefer big screen iPhones (like the iPhone 6 and later), then probably the iPhone SE won't be your cup of tea. However, if you are looking for a smaller size iPhone with the OS and camera that are close to the ones on the iPhone 6s and iPhone 7, then this iPhone could be a good fit. Plus, it comes in different colors and capacities.

like the size and speed of the phone and the price was great

You get the full performance of the iPhone 6s in the smaller size of the iPhone 5. Great camera and super speedy. Only downside is the smaller slightly lower resolution screen. Still it was a good tradeoff since I value the portability very highly.

Great small iPhone. Don’t need to have a big phone. It’s fast and enough storage.

I am an Apple products fan, but despite my desire to buy and own their latest, I like the smaller size of this SE, and have gone from 5s to SE when it was necessary to upgrade my phone. This particular purchase was made as a holiday gift for parents, and they love simplicity and size of the device, too. This is an affordable (and, from my point of view, convenient) way to get into an Apple eco-system or upgrade your older device.

I wish it came with a beginner's book. It has been a real struggle having too figure everything out by myself and getting upset and wanting to throw the phone because I feel so stupid.

I like the 4" screen form-factor due to it's smaller side - it fits in a pocket much more easily than the larger iPhones. With all of the "guts" of a 6S, it is plenty fast, has the fingerprint reader to unlock, etc. - it is quite a step up from my old iPhone 5, and the cost is very reasonable - especially when compared to those bigger iPhones.

My Amazon Fire Phone died. I wanted a smaller size and the 5SE fit. It has half the memory and neither the 64 or especially the 128 weren't available. I filled the 32 already and was unable to transfer my contacts photos and music because my old phone wouldn't activate. Get the 5SE if you want to basically get a more compact 6 but get one with more memory. Also my phone bill is less with the same carrier.

I wanted to switch from Android to iPhone but did not want to pay the typical high price of a flagship phone. I saw the iPhone SE was on sale and decided to buy it. It is the perfect size for me, has good performance, and a timeless beautiful design. I would definitely recommend this phone to anyone, especially those who do not need a bigger phone.

The new iPhone SE is an excellent phone and was exactly what I wanted. It has the upgraded technology of the iPhone 6 but is smalller - more like the iPhone 5 which I really like. The Best Buy price was excellent, making it a Great Value when compared to the AT&T direct price.

Upgraded my iPhone 5 to the iPhone SE and have been very pleased with it. To be able to get a small form iPhone with the guts of the iPhone 6S for $250 ($8/month) was a no-brainer for me. Don't have any buyer's remorse for not buying the much more expensive iPhones that cost as much as a MacBook. Thanks Best Buy for making my upgrade painless!

Back when I had the iPhone 5 and 5s, I thought the bigger phones were the way to go. But after a few years of the 6s plus being uncomfortable in my pocket, glad to be back to something that actually fits. And it is amazingly fast now. Best of both worlds, unless you want to carry around a small “iPad!”

My iPhone 6S plus was water damaged, so I needed an inexpensive replacement. I've had bad luck with used phones and unlocked iPhones. This phone has all the features and capabilities of the more expensive iPhones in a smaller package. It was the most cost effective approach. I'm very happy with this phone.

I have this phone so I thought I’d get the same one for my husband. It’s compact but still has great picture quality. It is a fully functional IPhone at almost half the cost.

I am very please with the phone and its size. It is a perfect fit to put in my pocket when I ride my motorcycle. I like all the features on the phone. It's easy to manage and the price was right.
