I just ordered it and am excited to receive it. When I bought my iPhone 7 I got it with 128gb and I have 101 of it available. I feel like it was a waste of money.
Same, Ive always just needed the 64 gb, I use it for basic needs and some games I use daily. Dont tkae many pictures and use social media at all, so the starting price is perfect. I also ordered the airpods pro because theyre noise cancelling and waterproof.
Just saw your review and couldn’t agree more. I switched from my Gold Xs,which I’m keeping, to a Black 64GB SE. The smaller size and A13 are the reason. It’s just easier to handle and fit (with a case) into a tech pocket or front pocket. As for the lack of Night Mode, don’t go spend hundreds for the 11, spend $4 on NeuralCam. It gives you Night Mode that actually works. If I could ask for anything from Apple on the SE, it would be a Stainless Steel frame and the telephoto lens that could do regular Wide Angle to 2x zoom in place of the Wide Angle. 64GB is more than enough for me since I use iCloud Drive and stream music and store photos. I keep my apps to a reasonable number and have 42GB of space left over. Save the $50! As for the price, I'm saving there as well. I will pay $199 to AT&T, they pay the rest! That makes this an even greater bargain! As for my Xs, it now serves as a great iPod! The large screen is great for videos or games and still takes great photos! If I want a larger screen, my iPad Mini 5 does the trick. Using either of them allows for my SE to use its battery for,,,phone calls or checking on my health or finances as needed. TouchID works great as always. Was it a good switch, YES! Glad I did it!
I’ve always switched between iPhone and android, but with the high end phones getting so expensive I couldn’t justify paying so much money, so I bought the se and I’m more than happy with it for the price, like you said the battery is not great but I can live with that. Anyway top video cheers 😊
I still have my iPhone 7, so that when my iPhone SE is low on power I charge it and continue what I was doing on my iPhone SE with my 7 while my SE is charging😁
Man im in the same exact boat. Used LG Galaxy and iPhone. But nothing justifies these new flagship prices. Samsung is so outrageous to the point the LG V60 @ $800 seems like a good price. Unbelievable. I'm gonna try the SE... downgrading from S9+. Hopefully i can adjust to the size downgrade.
I do the same! I had an XS Max went to the Galaxy s20+ and will be picking up my SE today! I had an iPhone 6 and liked it and the size was a lot easier for smaller hands so hoping I still like it!
Still getting iOS 12 security updates on my iPhone 6, so Apple has earned my return business. Will upgrade to iPhone 12 this year after having gotten 6 years of use.
Damn man, i sure wish i had your willpower. I currently have the iPhone 11 and would love to keep it for a few years, but i know how childish I am, and my willpower will fail like a chocolate kettle.
This is my first Apple. I’ve has a Samsung since the s3. I downsized from the note 8 as now I have ms and the weight and size of the note is just too hard to manage now. My 2 biggest complaints are the auto correct. It’s annoyingly different from what I’m used to and I’m a bit picky about errors. And... I’m really annoyed I held onto a Samsung so long. Seriously I’m in love with this phone. I’ve had it for what, 3 weeks now and I now want everything Apple. Everything is so much easier and streamlined over here. Plus there’s a bazillion cases and I’m obsessed with cases. 🤷♀️
Jen Harper yeah it’s especially nice if you have a Mac iPad Apple TV or Apple Watch and everything is just so seamless, whatever you do on one device will be on the other, and it’s fast, and it receives updates, it’s intuitive and easy to use, I love Apple.
All I have seen are negative reviews on the battery. I am insanely impressed by the strength of this battery. At the end of the day (heavy use) I end at about 40%.
I got this phone 2 days ago and so far love the phone but the battery is definitely not great. My iPhone XsMax battery lasted me all day of heavy use. This barely gets me through the day.
@@futurismo7655 I've had this phone for a week and the battery only lasts about 5hours, I went back to the shop thinking something is wrong with my brand new phone... turns out that 4-5hours is normal if you look at different reviews. So if you plan on doing a lot of work on your phone like me - be prepared to charge it 2 to 3 times a day. If you hardly ever use the phone, then your safe for the day I guess.
I ordered the 128Gb iPhone SE yesterday for delivery today. I chose black and am now wishing I’d ordered red, but that’s not a big deal as it’s going to spend its life in a (red) case anyway. I’m still using my old iPhone 6 so hopefully will be pleased with the new purchase. It would be nice to have a sensible battery life, but I’m guessing it will be around the same as the 6 was when it was young. Battery degradation and the fact that it’s become quite slow recently prompted the change (not sure that I can call it an upgrade) to the new SE. I’m actually quite excited and looking forward to it. A new toy to play with - just like the old toy.
UnforsakenAssassin it’s a bit strange you could definitely make it through the day for a regular user but when constantly use it it’s a bit rough. But overall the battery isn’t as bad as most people say it is.
Having been an Android user but also having an iPad Pro and loving the experience with it over Android I often thought about getting an iPhone but the price and the notch always held me back, I mean what if I didn’t like it? Then came along the SE and without hesitation I bought one I love the experience, especially along with the iPad. The iPhone SE is a great phone! I’ve always been a Samsung Note user so the SE did feel tiny at first but now I like having a smaller phone to carry around and the screen size is a non issue. Admittedly, since it looks like I’ll be staying with iOS I probably will get a larger phone if they ever do away with the notch.
If you plan on getting this phone, go to accessibility settings and set a custom color to more blueish to get a true white screen rather than the yellowish default
It's my first iphone n im loving it! I never imagined ios would be super fluid an coming in from a samsung inalwaus hated when i would reboot it it would take several minutes to work properly and a lot of stutters! This iphone whenever i turn it off n turn it back on it works perfectly! And the fact that mychildrwn have iphones it makes it easier to communicate in all iam happy i decided to move over tonthe apple ecosystem! Tjanknyou to you all youtubers for your reviews it really helped to make my decision! Now i know im going to buy a bigger iphone innthe future!
I’ve been using for two days now after using an iPhone X since it was launched and I’m definitely appreciating how light it is. I hadn’t felt that the X was particularly heavy but once you change, it’s pretty significant. There’s also one other factor that makes sense at having this at $399 with such a good processor - it’ll make other comparatively priced phones seem bad in comparison. The buyers that don’t care about processors won’t know why this is but it’ll make them second guess another phone afterwards and if they don’t, they might just regret the decision. That has the potential to be a great strategy long term.
I’ve had this phone few weeks now can’t moan at all great size been brilliant so far and battery is really good 2 if you playing too many games obviously it’s gonna drain quickly I don’t play games and the battery lasts the whole day 👍🏻
Couldn't agree more with you Greg. The average consumer might not care or even know what processing power is, but they sure as hell want the thing to work well for a few years. My neighbor had the 6 for like 5 years and only switched recently b/c it started to slow down. They're def not a techie, just an average consumer/user. Something for everyone I believe. For me though I need longer battery, def spoiled by the 11Pro I've gotten 3 days of moderate use often at times. Thanks again for the great content! Looking forward to GC on Sunday as always, part of the weekend routine now...
I had a pixel 3a which I still kept it. And I have the SE now and I've been using it for the past few weeks. I did not switch back to my 3a. SE is definitely better. I get a seizure when tech youtubers talk about the battery. It's really overstated. It works just fine. I didn't notice the difference in daily usage. And the 13.5 update made it better. At least it's better than the pixel 4😂 and that thing is a flagship this is a cheap $400 phone. It does the job. A great $1000+ shouldn't be so impressive. You spend good money and get a good phone. But SE is a whole different story.
I don't play games and don't take selfies and videos, some pictures now and then, im mostly web browsing and on RUclips for maybe 2-3 hours, so how exactly is battery life?
I picked up the iPhone on Walmart.com 199 for 64 gig , 249 for 128 gig . I got the 128. Plus 30 dollar activation with att. Then paid off the 249. Bam 280 total for 228 gig iPhone se 2020
Thank you so much. After watching dozens of reviews and comparisons of the iPhone 11 and iPhone SE 2020, this video is what made me go for the SE. I'm coming from the first gen SE and I'm so happy that apple released a second gen :). I have small hands and love the home button!
I really like my original iphone se that I bought in 2017. I don't like how they increased the size and removed the headphone jack. I'd rather buy a new original SE again (with more storage than the 32GB I have now).
Greg.. excellent video.. .. the only drawback I can see is the battery endurance.. for an average user .the battery would be able to cover a day for a period of 18 months and then starts to deteriorate up to point requires 3 times charge a day... what is your comment..
I had a 6S since it was released but ran out of storage space. Moved to the 8 and then tried to move to the XR. I hated Face ID and the notch at the top. So once the SE was released and Walmart gave 200 bucks off, it was a total no brainer for me. I have no regrets and plan to stick with this until it dies.
In regards to the battery life did you use it at full brightness? as i think if you put brightness to 50% you should get a whole days use out of it , plus it has wireless charging anyway so thats useful
To overcome the lack of a "night mode" or "low light" camera on this phone, there are several apps for that. "NeuralCam Nightmode" ($2.99) is one app that was demo'd in another video. It may not give you the quality of the iPhone 11, but it vastly improves a low light picture.
I use the iPhone 6s plus and battery life is pretty bad on it to where I mostly just use my iPad instead. I am probably going to switch over to android with the google pixel 4a whenever that launches. I don't think the SE 2 battery life will be enough for me.
Nice job... I got this phone because it is small and the cameras good and it has touch ID which I like better than face ID which I have on my iPad Pro 2018. I don’t play any games and I don’t watch videos all day on my so I never have a problem making it through the day on one charge. If You’re a person that uses it for texting email phone calls podcast listening music the occasional Google Maps / occasional video this phone will be fine with the battery.
Sure, if you don't care about the screen size it a good choice actually. The battery life really depends how you use the phone so if not gaming to often you should be fine. Plus apps support on iphine is much better on Android so yeah. Go for the SE
I recently received mine. It’s my first iPhone and so far so good, even after using a Note 10+. I noticed that your update downloaded but didn’t install yet. Did it eventually install? Even after several days mine hasn’t.
It took me about a week to 10 days to adjust to the smaller screen. But it’s fine once you get used to it again. I’m coming from a 5.7 inch android moto g6. Watching video, oddly enough hasn’t bothered me at all. It was just more getting used to reading the smaller text.
I got the SE for $200, so it was a no brainier. I haven't really used it though as my son took it. Theres not a better device for the price and I'm an Android guy. My son says the battery is actually really good. I currently use the 11 pro max which has the best battery life 13-14 hrs SOT on WiFi... However out on the road i think Android is the same if not slightly better. Iphone is most efficient on wifi from my experience. I have gotten just over 9hrs SOT on my OnePlus 7 pro was the best I've gotten from an Android just hated the stupid waterfall screen and bi- annual releases. I think the 5.4" 12 or 6.1" 12 pro is where it'll be at this yr. I wish apple didn't go to 6.7" on the pro max, 11 pro max is already pushing it's size limit for my tastes
Do you notice like a leading edge of the rear glass has a little gap meeting the metal sides? My fingers keep rubbing my right side of the phone and I can feel some sort of manufactured defect .
Three days ago I was buying a new iPhone SE, but if I charge 100% and wake up at night and see that there is no 8-9% charge, even though the data WiFi is turned off, the automatic charge is decreasing.
Bought my girlfriend one of these as her iPhone 6S had a battery that lasted every bit of one hour. As a replacement to that decide this is a great phone.
I finally dumped my Android phones to get a iPhone SE about a month ago. Well worth the extra cost, smaller screen is fine. I really like access to my iCloud files/apps (calendar, contacts). Camera was a bonus, as was Apple Pay.
I’d buy one now but want to see what I’d gain with an iPhone 12. For travel, I’d love to be able to leave bulky cameras home and just travel with the phone and a couple of lens, mini tripod, and grip accessories. I’d be switching from my current iPhone 8.
Remove the camera bump by making the body thicker, put in a bigger battery and a headphone jack. This goes for all phones. I hate thin phones, I find them hard to hold and operate with one hand. Almost as much as I hate the removal of the headphone jack.
If you guys have a bit more money available and like the newer design and features, I suggest waiting for October or November for iPhone 12. Base model leaks are 5.4" full screen oled and a14 with 5g support. Price is $650 so you're looking at $200 more
Its a great phone for the price but my current Android phone is working well on Android 9 and does all i need for now, i might get the SE in a year or 2 when the Android is outdated
The 128GB model is over $700 here in my country. It honestly pushed me away from trying an iphone as a daily driver. I don't get why companies do this. Most companies don't just convert their original products prices from USD to my currency. They add on $100 or more to the price after the conversion.
So quick comment on face ID vs. touch ID. Touch ID is useful for people like me who are blind and have trouble staring straight at the screen. Next time when you have a strong opinion about abolishing something altogether, please think about if it can benefit others even though it doesn't benefit you. Agree that a combo face and touch ID system would be sweet.
Idky ppl complain about the battery, like don’t we charge our phones on a daily?? Like I have an iPhone 11 with a bigger battery 🔋 and I still charge my phone daily, so don’t get the big deal

In regards to the battery life did you use it at full brightness? as i think if you put brightness to 50% you should get a whole days use out of it , plus it has wireless charging anyway so thats useful
im watching this on my iphone 7 right after my mom told me she bought the se for me and i havent even looked at it
Just bought it today. It’s amazing, I love it
Εκτωρ actually really good after one month. I use my phone the whole day and only on one battery charge. It lasts a long time I’m happy with it 😊
To overcome the lack of a "night mode" or "low light" camera on this phone, there are several apps for that. "NeuralCam Nightmode" ($2.99) is one app that was demo'd in another video. It may not give you the quality of the iPhone 11, but it vastly improves a low light picture.
I use the iPhone 6s plus and battery life is pretty bad on it to where I mostly just use my iPad instead. I am probably going to switch over to android with the google pixel 4a whenever that launches. I don't think the SE 2 battery life will be enough for me.
Nice job... I got this phone because it is small and the cameras good and it has touch ID which I like better than face ID which I have on my iPad Pro 2018. I don’t play any games and I don’t watch videos all day on my so I never have a problem making it through the day on one charge. If You’re a person that uses it for texting email phone calls podcast listening music the occasional Google Maps / occasional video this phone will be fine with the battery.
I have 64 gigs on my iPhone x and only use 20 gigs. Do you really need 128 gigs
Some people make videos for a living, and some love taking photos and videos so more gigs would be helpful to them.
64gb will soon be outdated like the 16 and 32 gig models
“I am not a light smartphone user” he says, panning past the 8,675 notifications on his phone
1:17 a depressing 326 ppi
me, with my iphone 6 :(

Don’t be sad, my white/rose gold 6s was my most favorite ever...
I have a galaxy core prime and im thinking of geting the new se do you think that the new se has a better battery
This is a great review! going in another more useful direction from the more common "camera" and "how fast apps open".
Is it worth replacing my samsung note 10 for the iPhone SE? This would be my first iPhone.
Sure, if you don't care about the screen size it a good choice actually. The battery life really depends how you use the phone so if not gaming to often you should be fine. Plus apps support on iphine is much better on Android so yeah. Go for the SE
I am sick of seeing comments like *Oh, i see this on my SE or something else phone that is reviewed on the video*
wallpaper ?
Does it have the dual sim?
I recently received mine. It’s my first iPhone and so far so good, even after using a Note 10+. I noticed that your update downloaded but didn’t install yet. Did it eventually install? Even after several days mine hasn’t.
It took me about a week to 10 days to adjust to the smaller screen. But it’s fine once you get used to it again. I’m coming from a 5.7 inch android moto g6. Watching video, oddly enough hasn’t bothered me at all. It was just more getting used to reading the smaller text.
Thank you for this review. Going to order SE.
Finally a review from someone who actually knows no offense to the other reviewers
Should I upgrade to this Iphone from Iphone 8? I like 12 mini, but the price is way too expensive. what do you think, Greg?
Nice review Greg thank you ....
This was an AMAZING review!
Thank you, this was great.
My biggest concern is why do you have 2000 notifications on RUclips?
Is the iphone 12 5.4inch the same size as an iphone 5s? Just an all-screen version?
I think it will be similar to the iPhone 8, and iPhone SE body.
I got the SE for $200, so it was a no brainier. I haven't really used it though as my son took it. Theres not a better device for the price and I'm an Android guy. My son says the battery is actually really good. I currently use the 11 pro max which has the best battery life 13-14 hrs SOT on WiFi... However out on the road i think Android is the same if not slightly better. Iphone is most efficient on wifi from my experience. I have gotten just over 9hrs SOT on my OnePlus 7 pro was the best I've gotten from an Android just hated the stupid waterfall screen and bi- annual releases. I think the 5.4" 12 or 6.1" 12 pro is where it'll be at this yr. I wish apple didn't go to 6.7" on the pro max, 11 pro max is already pushing it's size limit for my tastes
should I buy one plus or i phone se 2
Do you notice like a leading edge of the rear glass has a little gap meeting the metal sides? My fingers keep rubbing my right side of the phone and I can feel some sort of manufactured defect .
Anyone else notice this issue? Please let me know ocd buddies!?
Get the iPhone 📱 7/8/se smart battery 🔋 case.
I love the size and having a button and all that. The only thing I wish it had was better battery life. I am so torn between the se and the xr...
Three days ago I was buying a new iPhone SE, but if I charge 100% and wake up at night and see that there is no 8-9% charge, even though the data WiFi is turned off, the automatic charge is decreasing.
Great review
So which iPhone is your daily driver until the new ones come out? Still the 11 Pro Max?
2:15 Is a home "buh'in" the same as a home button?
Bought my girlfriend one of these as her iPhone 6S had a battery that lasted every bit of one hour. As a replacement to that decide this is a great phone.
I finally dumped my Android phones to get a iPhone SE about a month ago. Well worth the extra cost, smaller screen is fine. I really like access to my iCloud files/apps (calendar, contacts). Camera was a bonus, as was Apple Pay.
Man, that screen looks so dim, and by the way, the camera sensor in the SE is not the same as the 11
I’d buy one now but want to see what I’d gain with an iPhone 12. For travel, I’d love to be able to leave bulky cameras home and just travel with the phone and a couple of lens, mini tripod, and grip accessories. I’d be switching from my current iPhone 8.
Just got the red one for 200 brand new I can’t wait to use it!!!!
Remove the camera bump by making the body thicker, put in a bigger battery and a headphone jack.
This goes for all phones. I hate thin phones, I find them hard to hold and operate with one hand. Almost as much as I hate the removal of the headphone jack.
What 1st person shooter game was that?
If you guys have a bit more money available and like the newer design and features, I suggest waiting for October or November for iPhone 12. Base model leaks are 5.4" full screen oled and a14 with 5g support. Price is $650 so you're looking at $200 more
what was that fps game you tested on the SE?
Cod mobile
A well done review of the pros and cons. Thank you.
Should i buy this one or Samsung galaxy A50?
Usefull video bro. ❤❤❤ Love from india 🇮🇳
Excellent review - Thank you.
Its a great phone for the price but my current Android phone is working well on Android 9 and does all i need for now, i might get the SE in a year or 2 when the Android is outdated
The 128GB model is over $700 here in my country. It honestly pushed me away from trying an iphone as a daily driver. I don't get why companies do this. Most companies don't just convert their original products prices from USD to my currency. They add on $100 or more to the price after the conversion.
It’s not the same watching ur intros, after the last gadget cast when you and Travis did a parody of each other’s intros 😂
😂
So quick comment on face ID vs. touch ID. Touch ID is useful for people like me who are blind and have trouble staring straight at the screen. Next time when you have a strong opinion about abolishing something altogether, please think about if it can benefit others even though it doesn't benefit you. Agree that a combo face and touch ID system would be sweet.
Idky ppl complain about the battery, like don’t we charge our phones on a daily?? Like I have an iPhone 11 with a bigger battery 🔋 and I still charge my phone daily, so don’t get the big deal
The battery case saved this phone for me. I can’t wait until the 5.4 tho.
Nah, I’m still using SE1, waiting for the 5.4” iPhone 12
Yeah, the iPhone 12 will be great in terms of size and probably a lot better with the battery compared to the SE but the price.... it hurts ;(
Zorlan I don’t care about price, compact size is the only reason why I stick to SE1
