iPhone SE 2020

Finally! My SE is still going strong but I'll be pre-ordering this on Friday if the prices aren't too much higher than the US figures announced.

Looks like they're using the iPhone 8 body with upgraded internals, as expected no headphone jack on this model.

4.7" Retina HD display
A13 Bionic
Single 12MP camera

1,821mAh battery (same as iPhone 8)

Pre orders from Friday, shipping from the 24th, anyone else ordering one?

What’s the difference between the SE2 and iPhone8! This will be fantastic for small contracts due to the price! Awesome!

Did Apple have a conference today?

Starts at £419 for 64Gb on the U.K. website.

This device is going to seriously interfere with low-mid price Android sales.

iPhone 8 was A11 chip, the rest looks the same.

I really want to know which camera sensor it is. iPhone XR? Or the main shooter from the iPhone 11? If it’s the latter I’m in.

The Pixel 4A has some serious competition now.

EDIT - side by side, from the spec available on Apple’s website, it looks like the XR camera. Identical aperture and no night mode.

Wonder if this will be much of an upgrade over a 7 plus?

Squink · 15 Apr 2020 at 17:00

Shame they had to go the cheeky extra 20 quid on the UK price instead of keeping it at £399.

Been waiting for this....

Remember that $399 doesn't include sales tax.

I think the form factor is wrong. It’s essentially the same front design as an iPhone 6 from 2014. This would have been a really nice phone if they had thin bezels like the iPhone 11. Basically a mini iPhone 11.

I would actually swap to this if they’d included FaceID and not TouchID.

Apple gave the vanilla 11 a deliberately gimped screen to differentiate it from the Pro models (a full HD screen would have likely cost them an additional tuppence per unit), so I can see why they made no effort to improve the design of the SE.

It’s just Apples standard approach, not surprising. I’m thinking the Pixel 4a will be better than the SE if the rumours are true.

How expensive is it to add 5G capability?

Or more importantly, how much is it really required right now?

Very tempted. I've been an Android man for a long, long time but my work iPhone 8 impresses me, and I'm fed up with the ever-growing screen sizes on Android phones.

shiver · 15 Apr 2020 at 18:18

Seems like a good price point. I expect it will be popular.

The iPhone XR seems like an odd ball now

Entry level, should have had Face ID.

The Samsung S10e is pretty much the same size as the new SE. You get far more screen to body ratio on the S10e as well.
