    Got this phone for my 11 year old. It’s small enough to fit in her pocket or keep hidden in her book bag.

    I wanted something compact that I can carry with me on the go. I also wanted the same processor that was installed into the iPhone 6. The SE was a perfect choice for me. I had the iPhone 6 in the past and prefer the SE for it's portability. A+ product and was satisfied with Best Buy customer service.

    Like the phone but had trouble activating. The phone was sent with SIM card already installed but did not have the instructions for activating it on Verizon. Luckily I purchased another phone that came a day later with the instructions. There is also a problem with the recurring payments. Bestbuy says one thing but Verizon contract is more. Tried calling customer service but 48 minute wait to talk with a rep. Not happy!

    The SE is a nice choice if you don't want to go for the increased size/features of the iPhone 7 and up. The size is just like the 5S I had which fits nicely in my pocket. They've improved the camera and some processing features. Since I use my phone .... AS A PHONE ... and for e-mail & texting - this fits my needs perfectly.

    This is mine and my sons first smart phone. I like how small it is, I was nervous about the ease of the I phone, but it is soooo easy to use. I love the fact that I can take and send photos so easily. Great phone.

    I didn't want to pay more for phone features I didn't care about or need. The IPhone SE is same size as the 5S and it still fits in my Lifeproof case which is a huge feature and the price at BestBuy was worth it!

    I love the small form factor of the iPhone SE. It's hardware is near identical to the iPhone 6s, in the smaller size! Fits in my pocket nicely. Also, with Best Buy, got the best deal in town! Recommended.

    The iPhone SE has been a great phone. It is small, quick, pretty good camera and has great battery life. I do not miss the larger phones at all and hope Apple and others continue to make smaller phones.

    I have been avoiding selling my soul and getting a smart phone for some time. However, my trustee Samsung Intensity III finally died and I decided to get the iPhone SE and really like that it is lightweight, has a good camera, and is smaller than most of the mini tablets out there.

    With few exceptions like 3D Touch, you are basically getting an iPhone 6s for cheaper than an iPhone 6. Smaller form is great especially for teenage boys to keep it comfortably in their pocket.
