I just got the SE 2022 for a few reasons. The price is obvious for what you get, the bigger battery, the A15 chip, 5G, the home button, and the size. For the price the features you get are outstanding and Apple did an awesome job with this phone.

I think they will use the iPhone XR body for the SE before going to the iPhone Mini body, I can be wrong though.

[@squangan]

My wife and I both like what are considered smaller phones by todays standards. She bought the 2022 SE to replace her 6 with and it works perfectly for what she wants and is happy to have a phone that will be getting iOS updates for years to come now. I bought the 13 mini to replace my 6s and am more than pleased with that phone as well, it all comes down to personal preferences.

Dude, modern phones are like freakin tablets. You need a purse to carry one lol. This SE still fits in a normal pocket.

[@ingenunis5003]

I have the 13…….but think this SE would work just fine for me~ 65 year young senior😬.

[@daughterofsekhmet81]

I love my SE, the "old" design was actually the main selling point for me alongside the LCD. OLEDs give me headaches and I absolutely hate face ID. I bought a 13 pro last year and while it's an excellent phone, I found myself constantly frustrated with swiping and face ID. Any time I picked it up or moved it, it would wake and use up all the auth attempts so when I did actually want to unlock it I had to put in my passcode. I entered my passcode on that phone more times per day than I do in a _week_ on my SE. Literally my only complaint about the SE is the black front screen, I really wish they'd have used white screens on the starlight version but I really can't find anything else I dislike about it. Battery life is more than adequate, granted I'm not a power user but with streaming audio, texting, and a few calls per day I'm never below 50% at night.

[@kazihossain1370]

Wow thanks for this, I was really considering the mini 13 for battery life but its so much more epensive.

[@SimplisticallyDigital]

I am considering downgrading my 12 Pro Max to an SE. I bought my mom an SE last month and fell in love with the form factor. I already have an iPad and I want a smaller device as daily driver. Thanks for this comment!

[@chelseacooley2432]

I just got the iPhone SE 2022 for Christmas and I love it

[@RJtoon1]

I ran out and bought an iPhone 8 in November 2019 because all the tech reviewers were screaming that the iPhone 8 would be the last one with the home button so I went and bought one. Then the SE2 came out a few months later, Now the SE3. Something like all 30% of iPhones sold are this style, so I’m going to say this design is not going away it’s the one that Steve Jobs originally envisioned with the home button and he would probably be rolling his grave if he saw all this gesture “business.” I would argue the iPhone 13 is an old design with gestures harking back to the iPhone X the same year the iPhone 8 came out but just with squared off edges. That’s an old design now too when you get right down to it. Those of us that love this design, it is still a brand new device with the SE3 and reviewers need to remember that! This phone design is not for everybody and for those it’s not for shouldn’t be trashing it. And there are some BIG name reviewers trashing this phone right now. I’m glad I’ll be able to use my expensive collection of OtterBox cases because it’s the exact same physical design. That’s a bonus. Even a two year old iPhone is faster than a brand new android lol, no comparison

[@dave8204]

Which brand new Android are you talking about? At that price there are plenty of "new Androids" that are faster and better than the SE in a number of ways. I like iPhones but thae battery life of the SE is a bad joke in the 2020's and always has been. The Apple battery case does improve things,I've got one of those on my old iPhone 7 work phone that fits the SE. I don't know if Apple still sell those but new mine was $100,which makes the SE even worse value.

[@RJtoon1]

@@dave8204 Lol whatever dude, the SE has the fastest chip in the world right now

[@Sushi_219]

I got mine few days ago, and oh my, I love this beast in a small package. From the performance to the design , the people complaining about the price can clearly afford those more expensive devices, not everyone gets a brand new iPhone every year. I feel like tech reviewers and slandering it just cause they can and they don't see the need for small phones. The fact that they discontinued the mini kinda sucks.

[@tomblack6965]

Just got given one for my new job. I love the smaller size. Great to put in your pocket and not feel like you're carrying a small tablet. It's a little beauty. Does everything you want too. Hidden gem.

Another great video putting a new product in context with its stablemates, rather than simply going through its feature set. As with your recent blue iPad Air video, I have a good idea where this phone fits the market and what to expect from it. Thanks!

[@Cert731]

My iPhone 7 finally broke maybe a year ago and wouldn’t charge at all. Decided to upgrade and got a 13, had it for a year now and just bought an SE lol I miss the home button and small one hand feel. It’s too good and I miss it too much, gotta grab it while I can

[@bearmerica6668]

I used to live in Silicon Valley, had the very first iphone and updated all the time because it was fun. I now only owned the original SE. I just like the smallness and home button. I just bought the SE 2022 and love it. If I wanted a big phone I would use my ipad mini which can take calls. I've even used Android once but the Apple ecosystem is great with my now mac mini which is so much powerful than my maxed out imac.

[@AkarshDas]

How do you make calls with the ipad mini?

[@TeamDaemon1980]

Got my iPhone SE (2022) in like new condition the other night. No flaws and for only $150 on OfferUp. I'm getting the same A15 chip as the 13 series and non-Pro 14s. 

If you can deal with the outdated design, getting an SE3 for under $200 is the best deal you can find today. I personally hate Face ID as I use my phone a lot in the dark. I drive at night for work. And the notch can get in the way when watching movies or TV shows.

I'm not a big iPhone fan. I only got it because I nearly threw away my Razr 5G by accident. It slipped into a garbage bag after I was cleaning my car's interior and I had to retrieve it from the bin I threw it in. I'll keep my Razr 5G mostly at home for a year since it isn't fully paid off. 

SE3 will be my main phone for a year or until House of the Dragon airs in 2024. This will be the last to offer a home button and perhaps Touch ID. The SE4 will look more like the XR with likely the same A15 chip. I had a 12 mini and just HATED Face ID. And games like Forgotton Anne don't play properly on phones with Face ID. 

The swipe up gesture can ruin the experience as that also is the same gesture for volume or brightness for Netflix. It's weird that my $150 SE3 has become my most powerful phone I own when I'm only using it temporarily as a main phone for a year. Offers better value than a Duo 1 at the same price. Even though I'm no iOS fan, if you can spend only $150 on an SE3 with 100% battery health, that's a good investment knowing you will get software support for a minimum of 5 to 6 years. You only need to upgrade twice per decade. A15 will be a beast for years to come if two generations of iPhones used it. SE3 might be the most underrated iPhone ever made and more people will appreciate it once they realize they hate Face ID and the notch like I do or miss the home button. SE3 will be the last of the mid-2010s classic iPhone design. The SE4 looking like a XR will make us miss Touch ID and appreciate the SE3 once SE4 is released next year.

[@kweenjade01]

I LOVE the down to earth review. Not a lot of reviews are keeping it real in terms of “the average joe”. It’s nice to see someone actually understanding the market these phones were actually made for. It’s not even to have a positive or negatively opinion it’s about being realistic. High specs don’t always equate performance and they most definitely don’t show what a user’s experience would be. I have had so many android phones and decided to get the iPhone se 2. I have the se 3 coming in a few days. Judging by how happy I am with the se 2? I’m going to LOVE the se 3. Light gaming, browsing, social media like ig and snap and of course hourrrrssss of music and I’m honestly good for the day. I really don’t need all the bells and whistles. I find this ironic as I really thought I did.

[@kevindrone]

Thanks for the honest review, just got the SE 2022 for work. Nice to know it’s an upgrade from my SE gen 1. A sub from me.

[@steveb1972]

I'm keeping with my iPhone 8 Plus as long as I can. I still love the media-friendly 16:9 screen and as one of the 10% who can't use OLED screens due to PWM, I may look at this SE in a year or two.

[@mbaxter22]

Agreed - I was using an old 6S+ recently and would have been happy using this ancient phone if it weren't for the camera.

PWM?

I have PWM issues too and am delighted with my SE2. I got the 12 mini last year and it was a nightmare. So many problems (even aside from the awful OLED screen). The SE2 is much nicer to use in every way. My only issue is that it feels big compared to my SE1.

[@vickyalberts6716]

@@SidOfRivia Pulse Width Modulation. It’s an issue with OLED screens which causes migraines/nausea/dizziness for some people.

[@daughterofsekhmet81]

I have PWM sensitivity too and the SE3 has been perfect. Long live the 8+ though, I still use mine sometimes. Best phone they ever made IMO, I wish they'd make an SE+ in that design.

[@edgarfuentes6394]

I own a IPhone SE and I do enjoy having the home button to scan my finger print instead of having face recognition. I wish Apple would make an IPhone exactly like latest version of the IPhone13 and IPhone SE built together in one. For example meaning the phone has the whole face screen but also the home button on it like camouflage in the screen. I think it would cool to have the option for both finger print and face recognition 🤔

[@QESPINCETI]

The SE 2022 HAS wireless charging build in. CAN charge Without connecting anything at all. Apple just didn't tell anyone. 100% Certain.❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@mikeske9777]

I know that this is probably the last iPhone that use the classic screen and home button. I have a iPhone 12 Pro and my wife was using a old iPhone 7 that was having battery issues. The issue is my wife has dementia and has a hard time getting used to the newer tech of Face ID and using the newer phones. When I showed the wife the iPhone SE 2022 on the Apple website she was very interested and knowing her issues I offered to buy it and she wanted me to get it. So I ordered it and it arrived and she took to the new phone without issue. I was just future proofing the wife's phone as the iPhone 7 is really getting on in the years. This was the perfect phone for someone that is getting elderly and having issues with the newer product. Having this should last for a good four to five years.

I just got my first iPhone ever SE 3rd gen. A few days ago it's going to take some time to get used to but I'm loving it but I really hate the glass back battery is really good.

[@user-mm1wj8il4n]

First off the iPhone SE2 was a big hit over here in Japan because of the Touch ID and the fact of having to wear a Face Mask 24/7 over here. I downgraded from my iPhone Xr to the iPhone SE3 because of the Touch ID. There are alot of Japanese apps I used to unlocked with Face ID and if I didn't have my face mask off for whatever reason it would lock me out of the many Japanese banking apps. Also, there is an IOS app that is used for the Nanaco card that requires Face ID or password to use also too. Overall, Touch ID is so much better when having to wear a damn face mask 100%.

[@crazyfun5150]

I think the SE looks awesome for the price. My only concern would be the battery life. I do still love the classic iPhone design as they seemed to have less overheating and apps closing as the newer iPhones with Face ID. Also am I the only one laughing at the whole being eco friendly thing with the charger brick? That’s a clever way to mask taking an accessory out and selling it separately for more money.

[@andyH_England]

viz the charger. The EU has requested that chargers be removed unless they are proprietary. If OEMs do not remove them then the EU will put it in Law. So that is the reason why all OEMs are doing it and why it is now working its way down to the mid-range. There is no great conspiracy here, just the EU doing the science and being told that shipping the charger is destructive e-waste long-term. There will be countries, as there are now, that will ignore the science and not care about the environment as much due to social and economic difficulties and we have to accept that to an extent, but developed nations have no excuse. The exception is proprietary chargers, you can include these as they are innovating. That is why Chinese phones still come with chargers. So, I know you hate Apple and Samsung and the rest for doing this, but it is eco-friendly (pretty obvious it is) and we should embrace that in advanced countries.

I just watched this video because I just purchased the iPhone se 2020. And I think all the down-playing that tech reviewers spew out when a product isn't something "they" would use, is total BS. None of you guys understand that there's a huge market for this style of iPhone. Also, Apple not putting the charger in the box has nothing to do with "protecting" the environment because you have to end up ordering a charger, which comes in a larger box, wrapped in tons of shipping paper, not really helping out the environment at all. Its because Apple wanted to make more money with less product, therefore, depriving the customer of accessories , but charging outrageously high prices. Its a total scam.

I will be honest. I thought the SE 2022 would use the form factor of the iPhone XR. However, using the vintage design of the iPhones 6, 7 and 8 is beneficial for users upgrading from those said models because their muscle memory is used to that form factor after several years with it. Also, those users are saving money on buying new accessories like a case for example since the physical dimensions on the new SE are exactly the same as the older models 6, 7, and 8.

It’s not that it’s small it’s just easier to use in one hand less likely to drop 👍

HeyChris! can you do a feature show on a weird problem? I use my ipad for everything when not at home. i edit google docs for homework etc. Up to ios 15, i could get rid of the apps, log into the online version and get full tools just like on my mac. Now, i can see my drive, select a file, but cannot edit it! If i change the situation by deleting all the apps from my ipad, google always prompts me to use the app. The app is flawed, as it has about half the functionality of the online version. All i want to know is why cant i use docs on my ipad without the app and why is apple , or google, forcing me to use an app which is sub standard? my e portfolio is stored in google drive, hence the reason for my frustration. I know i can edit in word and then upload, but if i can work on docs from the mac, why not the ipad? GO CHRIS! shane, Tipperary, Ireland

This week I bought a customer return almost new iPhone SE 2020 for £229. It does a similarly good job as the iPhone SE 2022. I do not need 5G because it is unavailable in most of the places that I visit.

does the 2020 have no fingerprint to get on?where you buy yours?

[@paulharrison8379]

@@stopwars8642 I gave a friend my iPhone SE 2016 and he set it up without touch ID and so I guess that you can do the same with an iPhone SE 2020; I bought mine from the Tesco Outlet on eBay. There seem to be a lot on sale from a number of eBay suppliers for as little as £115. I suggest you get one a grade A iPhone SE 2020 for about £180. My battery health was still 100% when I bought it which suggests that it really was an unused customer return phone. In 6 months the battery health has fallen to 97%.

i like how u say it, people will like this just not tech reviewers

Who can complain for the price? You can get any number of Android phones that blow it out of the water value-wise. I like the SE but it's not good value,they could have put it in the 8 Plus body which would have made room for a more sensible battery and it also probably wouldn't overheat like the SE does either.

I have the iPhone 12 and I don’t even really need all its features, I don’t even have social media lol. That being said, I’m thinking about getting an iPhone SE.

[@mamalora9]

64GB is enough for daily driver?

[@lade2336]

I hope apple keeps making se phones alongside the regular/pro/max series

[@xeliotrop]

Technically this design is from 2020 because the iPhone 8 had the Apple logo a little wasn't in the center of the device.

Awesome

Iphones in Denmark/europe are much more expensive than in US, due to taxes and also that apple have put the prices up in EU. I was actually considering 14 pro max but the price was just too crazy (1540 $ for the 128 gb in Denmark), so i simply decided to go with the simplest and cheapest and bought the SE 2022 and i'm happy i did so (paid 315 $ for 64 gb). I don't use all those cameras and stuff anyways. But what i would have loved on the SE is better battery and better screen. But it is a budget phone so i'm still happy for it.
