iPhone SE review: today's tech, yesterday's design
Earlier this week at Apple's campus in Cupertino, the company announced a brand-new iPhone. The heavens didn't part, pop bands didn't play, and people aren't camping out at Apple Stores to buy the thing.
Pros:
- Fast
- Long battery life
- Great rear camera
- Relatively inexpensive
Cons:
- Starts with only 16GB of storage
- Lacks a few iPhones 6S features
- Design not updated from iPhone 5s

Just because the iPhone SE looks like an old device doesn't mean it acts like one. Apple squeezed flagship-level performance and the best battery life we've seen from an iPhone in years into a familiar (and relatively inexpensive) frame.

Used as Demo Apple iPhone SE 1st Gen 16GB Silver (6 MONTHS WARRANTY + 100% GENUINE) review
There's nothing innovative or ground-breaking about the iPhone SE: to all intents and purposes, it's simply a smaller version of the current iPhone 6s. It provides comparable performance and a broadly similar range of features wrapped up in a more compact 4-inch design with a £180/$250 price cut.
Pros:
- Compact
- lightweight 4-inch smartphone
- A9 processor delivers high-end performance
- 12-megapixel rear camera
- 4K video recording
Cons:
- Relatively low-res screen
- No 3D Touch
- 1.2-megapixel front camera
- Meagre 16GB of storage in entry-level model

Apple iPhone SE
The iPhone SE is a flagship in every right, but a screen size of four inches is too hindering today. Like all iPhone, the Rs. 39,000 price tag can seem overpriced, and is a big reason why the phone is tough to recommend today.
Pros:
- Excellent performance
- Best-in-class ergonomics
- Crisp
- sharp display
Cons:
- 4-inch display is too restricted
- Battery life is still rather low
- Lags behind in low light photography

Review: Apple iPhone SE
If you've been doggedly clinging to a battered iPhone 5 or iPhone 5s, then the iPhone SE is your dream made real: a 4in phone with all the power of Apple's latest handsets. If, on the other hand, you've become used to a larger-screened phone then the iPhone SE looks and feels disconcertingly tiny.

The iPhone SE is as small as the iPhone 5 but as powerful as the iPhone 6s – and it has the same great rear camera – all for $679 (or $749 for 64GB of storage).

Apple iPhone SE
A very good budget phone by Google ...really impressed by its performance and camera quality..don't let the front facing megapixel fool you , it can easily defeat all the 8 megapixel camera of Android flagships..(well not the s7 though)but still at this price ..
Pros:
- Performance
- Camera
- Build quality
Cons:
- 1st gen fingerprint sensor
- No 3D touch
- May be to small for some people
