I use 13 mini, have my Mom on an SE 2, my sister on a 12. As a hobby I pick up old iPhones cheap and replace the battery myself (currently have an X and a 8). The user experience and software are surprisingly similar across all of them. The camera is the main point of difference. If you're not a huge camera buff, or if you mostly take casual photos in good light, any of them will deliver the basic iphone experience just fine. If you need 5G or the latest camera, go with newer models. If you don't care about all that (normie user) might as well go with the $ proposition, iPhones hold up well over time and get great long term software support. Even if you wear out the battery, Apple battery replacement is very reasonable. A battery replacement on an older iphone often makes a lot of sense compared to the sticker shock of the latest new model

[@Alex-yj9xl]

no one needs 5G

Need to shop se 2020 he have ios 17 and real cool phone real lcd is beter for human eye not amoled for me and have 700nits se 2020 and iphone 12 have 625 hahaha apple why

[@HypeXesk]

​@@dejannikolic315it's usually cheaper to buy the same model refurbished than have apple replace the battery

[@justbulma]

I have the SE 3 and love it the design never bothered me I don’t buy phones for the way they look I got my SE3 back December the battery is better than the last generation and I have had no issues with either phone

[@sfranz5413]

Good video overall. One small point - 7:59 My iPhone SE2 is 256GB, so no it doesn't max out at 128GB.

[@aiham_awd]

Was about to say so

[@antiherowolf]

the 256gb version was discontinued over a year after the SE 2 launch, only the 64gb and 128gb remained before it got replaced by the SE 3

[@RobertStoddard-qq8fl]

My SE2 256 is charging next to me as I watch it

[@ritardstrength5169]

My SE3 is 256, and they still sell all three storage sizes on new SEs which is interesting. I think SEs are more popular than they will admit

[@leelanzini]

The SE2 is a good value iPhone for today… if you really are budgeting and don’t care about the display

[@michaelwoolcock5600]

I loved the mini as I do not like big phones. As a first time Apple user, I went for the SE3 instead. With the money I saved I bought an Apple watch!

[@jacobg.witmer]

8:02 iPhone SE 2 also maxes out at 256 GB of storage. I have a 256 GB SE 2.

[@micahgallebo]

Nice new camera angle! I prefer the straight in approach where the boxes are directly facing the camera, but I liked the new angle!

[@BubuBORG]

One of the benefits of the SE sharing the same form factor as the 6/7/8 is that your cases will still fit. Whenever I eventually upgrade to my next phone, I’m gonna have to get all new cases 😅 Seriously, though, the phone still works for your bare-bones needs.

[@123theprodigy5]

It’s unfortunate that the iPhone SE isn’t cool anymore, 2020 was the last time people actually cared about it. fast forward to now, people are ready to move on from the aging design, even Apple themselves. I really wish Apple would have kept this around,. The iPhone SE three is a rip off in my opinion.

[@9852323]

It’s a ripoff at apples price yeah but wait till the deals come around and it’ll be amazing. It’s still a good solid phone. I could’ve sworn I’ve seen this same comment word for word copied and pasted on multiple SE videos..

[@pavaomrazek]

I bought mine for 270$ new so it is a great deal!

[@123theprodigy5]

Well, I’m just expressing my own opinion about it, so I didn’t copy or paste anybody else’s comment expressing this same issue.

[@sharksbean]

The se 3 should’ve been modeled after the XR & when the 4 comes around the X

[@123theprodigy5]

@@sharksbean I was hoping that the iPhone SE three or the iPhone SE fourth generation would be modeled after the 12 and 13 mini. but I guess not.

[@zgen41]

I’m in an unusual position where I got a work phone and funny enough, they gave me a brand new iPhone SE 3. I’m a current user of the latest and greatest (iPhone 14 pro). However, for more than 8 hours a day, I mainly use that iPhone SE. Don’t get overwhelmed by the advertisements. You don’t need a bigger phone. You just don’t. If anything I would recommend an iPhone SE paired with an iPad if you are like me and watch mainly KZbin when not at work. You just don’t need a big phone. In addition to that, my battery lasts all day without any issue. Im getting home with around 40% battery. So yeah, if you don’t have the extra money to spare, you’ll be MORE than happy with an iPhone SE. If you were looking for a signal to make the final decision. This is it.

[@awardednerd]

I moved from the iPhone X to an SE two couple weeks ago

[@fake_dreamer]

I just recently bought this iPhone, like 4 hours ago recently, in A+ condition, 256 gigs with charger and case for less than $200. Coming from the og SE with 32 gigs this will be such a massive upgrade I think it will last for a long time, maybe a battery replacement eventually but not worried at all.

[@V750.]

That's a really good deal you should check the battery health tho if it's below 85% you should replace it

[@fake_dreamer]

@@V750. just got it today, it’s at 80% but still much better than 65% that the SE1 is at

Thank you for a great and informative presentation I still have the iPhone 7 and know that I saw your presentation and advice I will buy either the SE second generation or wait got the iPhone 15 what do you advice?

[@ShanesTech]

I bought my SE 2 few months ago. So far so good! 🎉

[@Fobes]

It’s a solid phone. There are 3 of them in my family currently. Two of them since the preorder.

[@vlad.-.7553]

How s ur battery life ?

[@ShanesTech]

@@vlad.-.7553 Hello Vlad, the battery life on my SE is okay. I don’t play games and I usually charge it between 20-80% and it lasts around 4-5 hours from 80% down to 20% and if I charge it all the way up to 100% and drain it to 0%, it lasts around 5-6 hours (no low power mode). If low power mode is enabled it can go for 6-8 hours (social media usage). Thank you. I bought it as an upgrade from the SE 2016 (1st gen). Edit: The battery health of my SE 2nd gen is at 96%

[@ShanesTech]

@@Fobes That's great! Yes, I agree it is a solid phone. I bought one as an upgrade from SE 2016 (1st gen) and I noticed some big improvements in comparison to my old phone. I wasn’t bothered by the design at all as I was aiming for performance and for a few years of software updates without spending more bucks for the xs,xr, and 11. Also, 5G is not widely available at the moment in my country and the majority use wifi in their homes.

[@vlad.-.7553]

and how is it for You? Like its a good iPhone ? And whats the battery life percentage in settings now in your iPhone? I have to choose between Se and iph 11 but the iph11 is more expensive. And like the battery go for 5 hours If you stay on it straight? Like I use it in school so i want it to last 5 hours mb.And have You tested it in some games like brawl or pubg or smth? Thx for answering

[@kenseidawanderer]

I’ve had the SE2 for over 2 years now. Had to replace the battery recently, and battery life can seem a little “puny” at times, but aside from that, the phone hasn’t given me many, if any problems. The Touch ID is also very convenient, as I can unlock my phone without pulling it out of my pocket, and use Apple Pay with no troubles.

[@YashAtishay]

I have an SE 2nd gen, I got it in sept of 2020, a few months after it came out and has it been good or what! I really love the phone, the battery life isn't greta that's true but then I don't use my phone a lot so on days when am working from home, the only use is to play music at the gym, I sometimes end the day with 40-45% left but on days when am going to office or travelling anywhere, I will need a charger the minute I reach office and about 2 weeks ago I took a road trip with the family, I had to keep a power bank right in front of my seat and plug into it the minute I got in the car, unplug and leave when we reached the places that we were supposed to see, take pics and all and plug back in the minute I entered the car. So yes the camera is great but if you are gonna use that great camera, better buy a power bank

[@doomy_doomy2225]

You can find some Xr’s and 11’s for a decent price.

[@andriytroyan3888]

I hope the new iPhone SE is a bit better than what we got. With the recent and expected price hikes, the 12PM will be the last premium phone I get

[@Milos596]

I wish they make both big and small SE. Like 13 mini for small one and 11 pro max for big one, both with just one camera.

[@matt2m]

I hope the SE4 is the 13 mini chassis. I’m really considering trading in my 13 pro max and playing around with a 13 mini until the 15 pro comes out.

[@Nolimitgang999]

Apple Probably will be recycling the XR design

[@davidjacobs6244]

It won’t have the mini chassis.

[@blasien1]

I use the 13 mini as my main phone. I got it bc of the size and I was afraid it was gonna be the last mini size iphone. I find the battery to be fine especially on standby like all iPhones. Probably not great for streaming content but that's not what I have it for anyway. The camera is really good and overall it fits my use case for it very well.

Great review.Helped taking decision to buy refurb.excellent like new SE2 recently. Had it before with my previous employer for 2 years and..i got used to it without using it too much. Now I do and happy with. To me the main advantage is this is NOT android ;)) Have a brand new Moto G13...OMG, too much permissions for such and such...,google maps not working well and too late to return it. The second plus of IPhone SE2 - camera and video. Beautiful pics. Just amazing for browsing and using whatsapp.Yes battery is 1800 mAh but with a good 5-10K mA power bank that s definitely not a pb.Really good deal if bought as refurb excellent condition.Thanks for video and cheers from Canada.

[@BLVCKSEA]

i just bought an Iphone SE 2 last week for 100 bucks off of Ebay...gotta say its not too bad..feels kind of small..but it has a better processor than the X or XR..which is the main reason i decided to get it instead..they all run for around the same price online (100-200 dollars) and when I set it up I was able still get support for the latest iOS, which is 17 right now...i also have an old 2012 MBP at home that I use for my daily computer which I upgraded..SSD/RAM..etc..and also using OCLP to upgrade the mac OS to Sonoma...didn't think the Continuity or Airdrop features would work because I came across some posts online that said it wouldn't..but after some configuring in my settings I got both features to work..now i'm running older Apple tech just like new!

[@inubrother3524]

I got into the same dilemma when I had the opportunity to buy a new iPhone. I ended up getting the Xs bc of the notch design yet having (almost) all the software capabilities the SE2 has.

[@Jorge-xv4qf]

I'm in this same situation please help. I have to choose between xs and se2. The only reason i'd preffer se2 over the xs is software and its chip but I don't see a big difference here. Everything else xs is just better so. I think im gonna go with the xs but i havent really decided it

[@JamesLauricia7]

[@Alex-hv3ir]

I bought the 2020 SE in September 2020 for 550€ (it was new and there was no used options yet where I live), I know it wasn’t a deal but whatever. Bought another for my little brother a few month ago for 200€. That’s a steal imo.

[@user_anthony]

Other than design and aging battery, the se 2 is an amazing deal of a phone. I still love the old size and dont mind the look. What i mind is type c and since i know the future phones will have it, there comes a point to say goodbye. If apple had released an se4 with type c, id probably buy it rn.

[@ryGuyD]

Hope stuff like this keeps going with the whole, you don’t need to upgrade thing on ur channel. U inspire me to keep my 14 pro max for 4 years( compared to me dropping $1500/yr per iPhone) I also have 1TB(flex) to help me with that 4yr journey

I’d stil one rocking my se2 if I hadn’t A) destroyed the camera by mounting it to my motorcycle, B) it’s better being pretty shot after two years, and C) the biggie.. I had the chance to buy a mint 256gb 13 pro for about half of their going rate. Otherwise, the phone was still solid and I definitely would have swapped out the battery. I’d planned on going long term with it.. just wasn’t meant to be. Got two years though

[@DLFfitness1]

Get the upgrade program if you need or want to chase technology. I would only buy a used iPhone directly from Apple, with insurance. The SE models are for people looking to save money. You don’t just save on the phone, you save on the insurance.

[@poohoo4495]

It terms of price and value this wins handily, SE 3 is way overpriced considering I bought my 13 Mini cheaper and the X and 8/8 Plus are still more expensive by $100-$150 even though they are about to become fossil fuels any day now. Also the 11 and below won’t get any more updates than the SE 2 considering the SE 1 and 7 Plus were dropped at the same time lol. This scenario reminds me of 6 Plus vs SE 1; bigger is not better because where is the 6 plus and SE 1 today; in 2027 the X and SE 2 will have the same dynamic in which the bigger phone will be obsolete and unusable. However I’ll say this, when the SE 3 is discontinued or replaced it will become Apple’s best deal because it doesn’t have the caveat with the battery life and will support 5G say if 4G networks are shut down like previous generations.

[@JohnnyGG0]

Why not the XS or XS Max? You still get more features than on X and keep the 3D Touch

[@5150crazyfun]

I bought the SE2 at launch and while yes the outdated design and small battery are the obvious cons, once you get past that i actually think it's hands down one of the best iPhones ever made. I have owned every version of the SE and i keep coming back for Touch ID and the overall value. There's a reason each version of the SE has been a best seller for Apple. Specifically with the SE2, i was able to bypass the battery life by buying a battery case. I love the iPhone X design too but unfortunately with it no longer getting software support and being much older i feel like it simply isn't good for anything other than a temporary phone or collecting a classic iPhone.

[@octranspo9321]

Minor nitpick: The 2020 SE actually doesn't support Apple Music Sing even though it has an A13 according to Apple

@@ralph6164 not sure you realize it’s a dynamic refresh rate that drops down to 1 refresh a second instead of 120. And that the always on display makes a 4-2%impact on your battery life.

[@potownrob]

I think the problem for at least some of us is that the screen and battery on the SE models are just too small for our daily use. My eyes are not what they used to be, and I'm not always by a charger. If they made an SE Plus a la iPhone 8 Plus, I'd consider that, at least as a backup phone. I personally would look for a used iPhone XS or 11 Pro (preferably the Max models) before an SE 2. That's not taking into account the superior chips and modems (and cameras) of the newer models. I also disagree to an extent on the SE 3 not being significantly better than the SE 2, despite having a problem with the screen size. The modems and battery life are said to be significantly better on the SE 3. The extra cost of even a used SE 3 might not make sense to some, but it makes that model more appealing to many.

@@TailosiveTech True, but you should then account for that smartphone needing a new battery at some point…or needing to replace the phone again with another budget smartphone in 1-2 years potentially. I guess it could be cheaper still overall to upgrade every 2 years or so with a $200 smartphone…just depends. I end up preferring the route of least hassle & headaches when it comes to tech.

The part when u said you don’t do android. 😂 Android’s are better for gaming, customization and better value in terms of purchases.They can also probably still provide free music as well.

3 years of support. Slower chips. No one is using an android from 2017, but I’m using an iPhone from 2017 and it’s working flawlessly

Good thing you did this before iOS 17, as your old iPhone X will not work with it😢🪦❌, but that iPhone SE 2 will 👍✅.
