    Overall I'm happy I found a iPhone at a price that I could afford for the moment this was my first pre owned purchase I do however wish that apple care could be added. the phone itself was in pretty good shape but the battery life is really bad. idk if its just this model or if its the device. Either way its doing its most important job and that's call and text.

    Never thought I'd hate an iphone until I had to get stuck with this one .. Slightly got wet two weeks after I paid full price for it and now I'm without a phone, money, and my dignity. Smh :(

    Switched to this from an Android phone and the difference is tremendous. IOS is just easier to use, smoother and more intuitive. All Android problems are now gone and I can just use the phone without thinking about it.

    Very solid device I know it isn’t the latest hardware and if you know Apple it’ll keep you in the game it’ll keep you in the Apple ecosystem and the camera isn’t bad it’s just not great like the current models and it’s good enough for sure . The sound the video quality is great and I like the screen it’s a decent device overall .

    I have a the black 128GB Version of this phone, and ive had it for 2 years. I would say its a pretty good iphone. The drawbacks in my opinion is the outdated screen size, the bezels on the phone are thick on the top and bottom, also the battery life. Im running ios 16 beta 2 on it and its great. Just the battery life that would bring it down

    SE is a great phone, but...

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I should have read the bad reviews, the problem main problem is the battery life left. Reading below, I locked out with 79% of the battery health life remaining. Nonetheless, it is true Best Buy is not being forthcoming, the phone should be sold for $120 to $150 expecting to replace the battery for another $79. My mother has had hers since 2020 with over 80+%. Believe me when I tell you she drains the battery all the time. This makes me wonder, from where is Best Buy getting these SEs with such a low battery life left?

    Ordering the phone was fast and easy. The phone look’s and works like it was new and buying used saved a bunch. Only hiccup was the delivery. It took a week instead of the promised 2 days.

    Honestly the phone looks like new and it doesn’t feel pre-owned. I went to at&t to activate it with no problems and they even ask me how much i got It for…..the sale person said i got ir for a decent price.

    Iphone Se whit 64gb came in great shape no scratches, everything works perfectly. Only issue is battery at 80% capacity, which is still fine and expected from a used Iphone. I'd give it 4.5 stars
