    After using the iPhone 5 @ 5s in the past, I was very surprised at the iPhone SE's new camera and features. I love the new iOS update and this phone seems to have all the specs of a iPhone 6s in a compact size. Overall I recommend this phone as a first iPhone to anyone who has never had an iPhone before.

    I bought this phone for my son as his first real phone. He’s had prepaid phones before but they were cheap and lacked features. This has current features and is small enough for him to carry around where he needs to compared to other larger sized iPhones. Greater starter phone for a preteen.

    I had an iPhone 6S and really like the smaller size of this phone. The price was reasonable for 32GB.

    Got this phone for my daughter. It's perfect! The power of an iPhone6 contained in a small and manageable size for little hands. Highly recommended starter phone.

    My wife needed to upgrade her old iPhone 5s but did not want all the bells and whistles of the iPhone 7. She also preferred the smaller size and the SE meets her needs. She now has a better camera, more memory, and has eliminated the problems she was starting to have with her older phone.

    Older granddaughter got one last year; the younger one was due and so we got her the identical phone but different color. We're all iPhone/iPad users in the house, so this was a painless transition for her.

    I don't love me the giant bulky phones so this size is perfect for me. The camera detail is awesome and I like not worrying about having to delete things with the higher storage space.

    Looked at this phone in the store. Was hesitant because the home button is a little different than prior models but it turned out to be just as good as the prior models. I am an iphone gal and iphones are the easiest smartphones out there. I love the large screen and the picture resolution. Store personnel was also excellent in providing service! Overall great experience and love the phone!

    A gift for my dad to make him switch to iPhone. Smaller screen and overall size is comfortable for him. Fits nicely in his hand and pocket. Has decent configuration for basic tasks he needs to perform, including the memory (32GB). As always, Best Buy and Sprint offers combined made this purchase a great deal!

    I looked for an iPhone SE high and low and could not find any distributor that sells a new phone. I happened to be at Best Buy to look for a Security Camera and asked about iPhones. I was pleasantly surprised and feel very fortunate that Best Buy had one left for me. I am disappointed that they had only one left. Apple needs to know that there are still customers who want to buy small phones, including my son. Let me know if there is another iphone SE available for purchase.

    Always been an android user and was ready for a less expensive and smaller phone. Was hesitant to purchase the SE as rumors of SE 2 would be released soon but have zero regrets. Phone is fast with fantastic battery and sturdy feel.

    This is a great phone for a kid or anyone with smaller hands or who doesn't want a lot of bulk in their pocket. The camera is almost top of the line. iOS is likely to support this phone for a long time!
