Summary
Building a $400 phone is an exercise in compromise
And the iPhone SE certainly has its share. Despite that
SaveWhile it feels like a relic from a bygone age in some respects, the iPhone SE 2020 is nevertheless an amazing device considering the cost. At just £400, it undercutsthe best Android phones on the marketand offers astonishing power - nothing in this pr...

Exceptional speed and graphics performance, Excellent photography, Bargain price
Oldfashioned design with woeful screentobody ratio
The iPhone SE (2020) comes in at a price tag that in Apple world has to count as a bargain; to be honest, if an Android offered this performance for £419/$399 we'd be calling it superb value for money.Processing and graphics performance are close to marke...
The iPhone SE is a phone devoted to function over form, prioritising raw performance and camera capabilities over design or aesthetics (though battery life gets caught in the crossfire).That makes it a very un-Apple iPhone, but that's unlikely to help it...

lowestcost new iPhone, fiveyearplus software support, A13 Bionic, wireless charging, good camera, top performance, easy to handle, water resistance, Touch ID, amazing value
battery life could be better, no headphone socket, no zoom camera, no Face ID, dated design, very slow charging
We don't typically associate Apple with tremendous value, but that's what the iPhone SE is.What was tired in 2017 with the iPhone 8 has been revitalised in 2020 with a dramatic price cut and top-of-the-line processor. The combination is extremely potent.Y...
Average battery life, No haptic touch on lock screen, No Night Mode in camera,
The iPhone SE 2020 is the best cheap smartphone for most people - its camera, build quality and speed all match more expensive phones. Its smaller screen will also please those who feel left behind by ever-larger devices.Reasons to buy+Premium build+Excel...

Light, compact design, Class-leading performance, Loud, enjoyable audio, Great camera, iOS is excellent
Not a great display for $400, Battery life is just OK
Yes. The iPhone SE is a solid entry-level iPhone. You can buy a better device, but you don't need a better device. If you, like me, consider a smartphone to be just one of many gadgets you could spend money on, opting for the $400 SE can make a lot of sen...
The iPhone SE might look and feel like a three-year-old phone, but it's got a modern heart and a highly tempting price tag. There's arguably never been an iPhone that offers you as much for your money, and we're going to have to think long and hard about...

Abstract: This phone is the very definition of déjà vu. At a glance, it's nearly identical to the iPhone 8, released in September 2017. But inside, though much of the hardware is the same, it's powered by the latest iPhone chip, the A13 Bionic, also found in the cu...

Affordable price but flagship specification,Small size has its charms,Decent camera performance,Water-resistant design
2017 design shows with large top/bottom bezel,Limited battery - and no fast-charger in the box,No Face ID - it's Touch ID only,No Night Mode
The iPhone SE (2020) is all about big power at a smaller price. It's quite remarkable what this little iPhone delivers.Sure, it's built around three-year-old hardware, so there's not everything that the iPhone 11 models offer - but that's inevitable. If y...

This is a difficult comparison to make because these phones are trying to do different things for different people.The iPhone 11 may not have the Pro suffix but it's a high-end device nonetheless, with a high-end price to match. If you're looking for a bu...
