    5 SE is a great phone for those that prefer a smaller format then the 6 or 7. It has a great camera, and processing speed is very fast. So far, it is exactly what we were looking for.

    Looking for something for my daughter as her iPhone 5 was failing on multiple levels, as well as not having satisfactory on board memory. Went from 16GB to 64GB with this transition, compatible size to iPhone 5, so same options for covers could still be used. It made for a nice gift during the holiday to top it off.

    Although the size of iPhone SE is small but the A9 chip is quite powerful in gaming. The battery life is good for Pokomon hunting and the camera is decent. My wife loves this little guy.

    I enjoy the size of the I phone SE. On the plus side is the speed that it processes. The picture quality is most excellent as well!!!

    No surprises with this device. Got it for one of our kids as a gift. If you don't need a large device but want something that is fast and runs current apps this is a great little phone.

    If you enjoy the smaller 4" form factor of the iphone and don't want to have to use two hands to use your phone all the time this is the option for you! 64GB for more pics/videos/apps!

    We upgraded our older iPhone 5s to the iPhone SE w 64gb. Did not want the larger phones an was delighted to learn this phone is the 6S in a smaller iPhone 5 case. We can use our protective cases from our old phones and it is easier to carry in my pocket! The newer processor is much faster and the camera features are improved. Battery life is greatly improved over my 5! The Best Buy tech was very helpful and much better than the Verizon personnel who seamed they didn't want to sell 3 new phones. Very happy with this phone.

    I love this phone. So easy to use it exactly what they advertise. Everything you want from a 7 but in a smaller version. I'm not a big person so the size is great for me.

    My family had been on me to upgrade my iPhone 4S. The iPhone SE went on sale online with Best Buy for a great price and I am really happy with it. I didn't know what I was missing.

    Wanted to phone that was same size as 5s. Upgraded to 64GB version, as prior 16GB version was always running low on space. Purchased 2 of these at same time. Price was right.

    I got a Caselogic cover for mine in matching rose gold. The phone fits me perfectly and my hand doesn't get tired on long calls (isn't that what Bluetooth is for anyway?).

    Was using a 6 plus but was too big for me. Thought about a 6 or 6s but saw deal on this SE so went for it. Also appreciate that this is basically a 6s in a smaller package.

    This phone has almost all of the same features as the 6s and the one or two things missing are not important. One is the easy edit feature for text messages. The camera on this phone takes really good pictures and videos. It is fast, light, and still fits nicely in my shirt pocket. The 6s does not do that. I did not want a mini tablet for a phone, so this one has all the features I wanted and still has the right size.

    I wanted a smaller iPhone to use on Tracfone pay as you go plan. The SE works great with the plan. This phone has the updated camera, etc., so it is perfect for my needs.

    Crams all of the features wanted into a small, pocket-sized case. Good photos. I do not use the keyboard a great deal, so small display is a manageable issue.

    SE better camera and battery life

    I really like the 4" phone size so that limits me to the SE as the best option. Camera works better in low light than the 5s and the battery life is better. Not much also noted other than more processor power which isn't all that noticeable for the most part as I don't game.

    Our family has been using iPhones for a few years. We have never had problems with them and they are easy to use. The SE version works as expected. Iphones have had all of the features we like and they pair well with other devices like speakers, streaming components, printers and computers. We like the iPhone SE because it has all of these features and still easily fits in your pocket.
