      I think the SE could be the perfect phone for some people. For my dad is perfect. Is compact, works great, camera is good enough, he’s not using it all the time so the battery life is not a problem for him…
      Also, on the used market they get way cheaper. You can get a SE 2022 for like 300-350€ which I don’t think it’s a bad deal.

    I had the IPhone 12 Pro Max and have decided to upgrade to the IPhone SE 2022 just because I love the old style off phone which this guy is saying as a negative. For me the newer phones are too big and all look the same so wanted a nice simple phone that’s more affordable than paying silly prices to be like everyone else. Overall love the SE and having the home button and can fit it in my pockets better 😊

      Of course they will. In fact, for you the good news is great; because the mini sold so poorly (I predict) we can expect to see it released at SE price and renamed the SE in about 2 years.
      For me this news is not so good as I just bought an SE, but I had no phone and one cannot go two years on an interim phone.

    I needed to upgrade my old iphone 8, it was perfect for what i needed. So i choose the SE 2022 because i needed the same experience but renewed. The "flaws" like the old design and the fingerprint home button similar to the iphone 8 was what i actually was searching for.

    I bought this phone and haven't looked back, it's nice not having that iphone 13 brick in my pocket; admittedly I went back to the 13 a couple times, but I always miss the lightweight and easy to hold/handle SE.
    While I found this video informative, how many times are people going to knock it? Because it's getting old. The people who buy this phone are not playing PUBG or reading spreadsheets. I'm planning on getting another since you can't trust Apple will release a new device without screwing it up, already hearing rumors of a revamp, probably because they are equally tired of tech bloggers bashing the SE, for reasons IDK, these are the same people on the 60h bandwagon but said nothing about it even 2 years ago, now suddenly everything has to be 90 or 120.

    I personally don’t mind the old design, In fact I kinda like it. I’m so used to that old fingerprint home button design and I don’t plan on upgrading to the high end iPhones anytime soon… Until I don’t have a choice because I know this is probably the last old design iPhone SE apple is making so I wanna take full advantage of it while I still can. I’m currently carrying an iPhone SE 2nd gen and I’m really thinking about getting this 3rd one… I know it’s a very small upgrade but my current phone has so many network and camera issues since I dropped it backwards and I don’t know if I dislodged or loosened something in the board but I tried every possible way to fix the problem and I’m basically paying for unlimited phone service for nothing. I’m currently using my Wi-Fi router for watching RUclips and doing whatever I want.

    The battery life on the SE3 is fine if you are an average user. There are many reviews of the SE3 on RUclips where they show it in use throughout a day and to the reviewers surprise the battery lasted for the full day. The LCD display is crisp, clean and the colours pop even compared to some of the lower end android phones that have an OLED. If you only do basic camera shots, the single camera is fine and there has been significant software added to enhance that experience. Video recording is very good at 4K. The phone has 5G and additional RAM as well. The area where I think they could have improved the phone was starting at 128gig of storage instead of 64gig and adding dark mode to the software update.

      I don't know what you mean by average user, my daughter had a pixel 5 and I got her the SE3 because all her friends had iphones, she uses her phone for massaging, Instagram, and Snapchat. She goes to school at 8 am comes home at 1 pm that's 5 hours later and her phone is usually at 15 percent. That said she's not on her phone in class because I asked her teachers if she's on her phone and they have all told me no, her good grades are proof of their feedback. Back to the point she has definitely complained about the really poor battery life. She went back to the pixel phone. I ordered an iPhone 11 pro from eBay for $400 because I just don't believe an iPhone is worth the $800+ price tag. She's been using it for 3 days. She says the 11 pro is a huge upgrade, yet it's older and it's the same price.

      5G (sub6), Smart HDR, Deep Fusion, Neural Engine (AI), A15 Bionic, good battery life, etc. etc.

    Okay let me say a few things.
    First, I love this phone. I have the red one and it has 256 GB of storage and that's been plenty for me.
    Second, I love the home button. I don't know why they removed the home button on the newer models, but I love the home button so much that I don't want to part with it. This is how I take screen shots and close programs. It's second nature to me.
    Third, many people knock the phone because of the smaller screen due to the black bevels on top and bottom. I don't care if this looks outdated or not, I don't care if the screen doesn't take up the full size of the phone, the only thing I care about is that I have my home button.
    I would personally choose the iphone SE over the new iphone 13 pro max, why? Because of the home button. That is just personal preference, but this phone fits me. I wouldn't call it the worst phone of 2022, but its actually my top pick for a phone in 2022.
    So you can knock this phone all you want, but I love it. There are a few thing apple could do however. Yes, an SD card slot would improve the phone and an easy way to change and replace the battery would also help.

    Comparing it to all smartphones it is a bit lacking, especially in screen size and resolution/display. That being said, a lot of people get the iPhone to be in the ecosystem, and when compared to iphones it's pretty nice for those that want a small phone. If you want a small phone and a big screen, get the 12/13 mini.
    Small storage space has been common for apple as a way to make people pay more for it, unfortunately. Would be nice if they allowed an SD card for expandability.

    I found my old 2016 Xiaomi Redmi 3 Pro a few days ago and was hit so hard by the nostalgia for such a small, light phone. It's almost exactly the same size as the iPhone SE, but the Xiaomi actually has a higher screen-to-body ratio - and significantly better battery life, going by the iPhone reviews. iPhone's got a 2018 mAh battery, the Xiaomi's got 4100 mAh...
    I've looked at the iPhone 13 Mini as well, but honestly I'm just not impressed. It's got great everything, doesn't even have the bezel issue, but battery life is an absolute deal breaker for me. Especially in these price ranges. I'll be getting the Xiaomi 11 Lite 5G, it's cheaper, as light as the iPhone 13 Mini, smaller than my current giant phone, and looks like it'll have significantly better battery life. I'm holding out for the Xiaomi 12 Lite, but the 11 should be fine if my phone becomes unbearable before the 12 launch.
    I just don't care how good the camera/display/processor/whatever is if the battery isn't good. Buying a small phone and then having to carry around a battery pack... Been there, done that, never want to end up on a different continent with a phone so dependent on a separate battery pack ever again.

    Gym Device: I have this phone and I really enjoy it, but I use it as my gym phone/mp3 player. My main phone is super expensive and I don't know what I'd do if I took it to the gym and accidently smashed it or damaged it. These are nice for physical activities where you want to leave your main phone (along with your social media apps) back at home and just focus on what you're doing. If used in this way, even 64gb is plenty for using a few music streaming apps, Audible, and RUclips. Lastly, when you're sweaty as hell and you want to quickly unlock your phone the physical home button is clutch.

    Even for a major apple fan like me this phone is a tough pill to swallow. While the SE 2 was alright and good for many, the SE 3 is a little bit ridiculous. The battery life, the Display and also the camera since it doesn't sport a night mode or anything special for that matter. If I rly would want an iPhone I would definitely pick up an older iPhone 11 or something

      Battery life is just a little bit better on this phone than on the 11.

    I 100% agree with all the points in this video. In my opinion the cons outweigh the pros. There are just so many better phones you can get for the same money or even cheaper. Google pixel 6a, nothing phone 1, galaxy a53 etc.
    This is coming from someone that switched from an iPhone se 2nd gen to the pixel 6a so I know what I am talking about when comparing these phones.

      No you don’t because you switched from Apple to Android so sorry a pixel will be dead in a couple of years crap quality and 3 yrs updates if lucky this iPhone will be having updates till about 2029 and no burn in on screen too!

    Ummm... those big bezels PROTECT the screen when the phone is dropped on a corner. Who wants their screen to shatter every time they drop their phone?

    If they at least expanded the screen to the edges, this would be the best buy phone, in this case,It's a good phone in the range of $ 100 and not a cent more
