Total Wireless - Apple iPhone SE 4G LTE with 32GB Memory Prepaid Cell Phone - Space Gray

I bought this iphone se because I wanted a smaller phone. I had been using a windows phone and then a samsung android phone before this. This was my first iphone. I did not like this iphone at all. Imo at least for me the phone is too small and hard on the eyes. Also, the navigation on the phone is quite different than windows or android. Basically you have to physically press the home button to get around which I did not like - it felt odd. There is no back button or touch home button. Then there is the wake/power button which is located on the top instead of the side. . And it has a strange dedicated switch to mute the phone/lock orientation which seem unnecessary. That could just be a setting in a notification menu to toggle. Even putting in the sim card is not so easy and required a lot of force with a paper clip. When I sent pics to a microsoft email, the pics showed inline instead of as attachments. On the plus side the camera is pretty good and sharp though in low light the pics are a little dark. A cheap samsung phone took brighter pics in the same conditions though not as sharp. I was disappointed with this phone as I thought I was really going to like it but I could not box it up faster.

I snagged this during Black Friday weekend for only $99 dollars--it was a great steal! I bought it for my young teenage daughter to use basically as an inexpensive iPod Touch (the comparable price of a 32gb iPod Touch was double at $199!). Even at the regular price of $159 it's a great buy. We've been using it since Christmas day and it functions just as well (actually, the battery life is superior!) to the iPod Touch 6th generation we already have at home. We just didn't activate the phone, and it's no problem at all; it doesn't try to remind us to do it constantly (or ever, at all). We've had a couple of cheap prepaid Android phones (a couple of Samsungs and one LG) that we used the same way (didn't activate, just used with Wi-Fi) and those brands always would bother us with numerous prompts to activate the phone. iPhones don't do that at all. It is an excellent phone at an unbelievable price. I'm already planning to buy another one, just as an additional one to have because the price is so good.

I grew tired of big phones. Yep. I've always been a prepaid person for the simple fact that I don't like being tied down to one carrier and prefer paying half the cost for the same service. I was an Android user growing tired of phablets; just wanting a powerful, compact phone. I tried the Moto E which was compact, decently smooth but unforgivable when it came to camera quality. I reluctantly decided on trying the iPhone SE thinking it was probably far too small for me to like. I was wrong. This phone is the perfect size for my needs (social media, iMessage, web browsing). I don't game, I watch movies on Television, and I have an iPad for heavy content consumption so this iPhone is EXCELLENT! Great camera, classic build, good battery life and solid performance. You can't go wrong at this price!

We wanted the Iphone 6, and at AT&T, we could make 24 months of payments for 2 Iphones totaling over $800. Then we saw this deal at Best Buy for the Iphone 6se ($159 per phone) great phone at a great price! Total Wireless offers competitive monthly service, and they are on Verizon's network. Also, the staff person at the Carbondale Best Buy was an angel. She walked us through the purchase and what accessories we would need, but was not pushy at all. Overall a great experience.

This is my first iPhone, and I thought I would struggle a bit with getting to know it. Not so! Everything from iTunes to the app store to the settings was much easier to learn than any Android phone I've ever had. The practice was a bit more difficult. Firstly, this phone is small! I knew that going in, and it's my own fault, but be aware, it's hard to get used to. The second difficulty is the touch screen. Other phones touch screens are very sensitive, very easy to activate. Sometimes I feel like I'm having to beat on this screen to get anything to work. Those are my only problems though.

I had iPod Touches before the phones came out, but I’ve had an Android since 2013-14. I’m trying out how I like iOS. Music syncing is way better, but it is still more buggy as a phone than I hear Apple fans admit. It seems to work smoother than my $100-$130 Androids with the exception that it seems to sometimes not register my touch, but I’m not sure if it’s a finger-placement problem or touchscreen problem. I like it, but it’ll take me a while to get used to a new OS.

...except I use it as an iPod. I’m a Total Wireless customer so I bought the iPhone SE model, used my SIM card to get into the phone once I got all my accounts set up. Took my sim card and put it back in my actual phone. Why pay $199 for a 32 gig iPod when I can pay $159 for an iPhone and use it as an iPod. Which is what I really wanted. Battery life is good and does everything I need it for.

My son seems to love it , He wanted a small phone and from the research I did they say it's like the iPhone 6 except, just a small version. He is very happy with his phone and the size. He is pre teen just as a gauge for other moms.
