    Solid construction, solid OS, absolute joy to handle and use! Recommend over the iPhone 6/6s/6Plus models, since it has the 6 gen processor and camera but the more functional 5 gen form factor. Personally, not too crazy about the silver finish and white front, but my wife likes it!

    Upgraded from my 5s. Fells like the same phone just faster, more responsive. Greatest thing about it is the battery life though. It is absolutely amazing. Even using the Apple Watch with Bluetooth all day I can go almost a full two days on a single charge. Would definitely recommend.

    Glitches

    Bought this to replace my 5c which seemed to be inconstant need of charging. Overall this phone functions the same. Size wise it feels exactly the same. There do seem to be some glitches with either the phone or the setup...I lean towards setup. Was somewhat disappointed with the lack of that completed by Best Buy. In the past I have purchased there in order to have transfer of data and setup taken care of. I was mostly left on my own with this purchase. I could have ordered the phone online from the carrier and saved sitting and waiting in the store. My main issue with the phone at this point is that I receive no indication that I have a voice mail. If I see I have a missed call, I have to dial in to my voice mail box and check to see if a message was left. This is very annoying AND took me several weeks to realize. After the 4th or 5th person said 'did you get my voicemail', I started poking around and was at least able to find them. Overall however, this phone is decent and operates and feels just like the earlier iPhone 5's

    This phone was price really nice for everything it does. My mother loves it and says it works much better than her android phone she was using. Things she loves about this phone is that the battery lasts longer, has a quality build, and apps run without unexpectedly closing.

    I got this phone as a slight upgrade and to increase my storage space. This phone was perfect as the size is still small unlike the newer models. I also got a great monthly pay off plan without a contract. It was over a perfectly what I needed!

    I've been a Samsung Galaxy user until I bought this, which is my first iphone. The main reason for this purchase was to have a phone that was a little bit smaller than the Galaxy. Frankly I would have bought another Samsung Galaxy if they made one as small as the iphone SE, but this slick looking thing is very good and the battery lasts forever!!!

    My husband was due for an upgrade but did not want to carry the larger sized iPhone 6. This phone has most of the features of the iPhone 6, but is sized similarly to the 5. Great compromise for him.

    I was holding off on buying a new phone until I knew the right one would release for me. I love that this phone has the same size as the 5 (phone I've had for years) but now comes with newer software. Highly recommend if you don't want the 'mini-iPad' feel.

    I love all the upgrades from the iPhone 5 on this phone. It is the same size which makes it easy to carry. The only thing about the phone that is not upgraded is the screen it is not as vibrant as the iPhone 6s.

    Bought this for my sisters first smartphone and she loves it, she came from a flip phone to the iPhone SE. The phone is way too small for anyone with larger hands but it works great and she has had no problems with it so far.
