I wish the new SE4 (whenever it finally comes out!!) was going to still have home button with finger print. SO disappointing for them to not continue that feature. Some of us want the home button and finger print option (I HATE facial recognition being a forced feature!!) I’m still using my iPhone 8 for that reason!
it's such a pain to use Face ID when I have the phone close to my face as im near-sighted. Touch ID works in every situations except when I have gloves on which happens only once or twice a year
I have the iPhone 13, I bought my son an iPhone 13, he dropped it and I bought an iPhone SE due we did not know if apple will cover the cost of the other phone. Apple ending repairing the other phone but I am switching to iPhone SE, the size is just perfect.

If you use a phone like its a phone with some extra tools then the battery lasts all day, the screen size is fine, nothing feels squished, the camera does great and its an all-round great phone. If you use your phone like it's your whole world then you'll blast through the battery, be dissatisfied with the camera and you'll want a bigger better screen so you can really be sucked into the content machine. I've been running an iPhone 8 as my daily for a few months now and as someone who is most like the former, this phone is perfectly fine for me. In fact I prefer it over an iPhone 15 Pro Max Plus Ultra.
I'm still using the 12 Mini. With the new SE coming next year being the size of the iphone 14, the choice is to either get a 13 Mini while they are still available... get the current SE and sacrifice the little things I like about the mini... or bite the bullet and just upgrade to the new SE or 16, and deal with the larger phone. I'd prefer a 16 Mini... but Apple apparently hates small phones... so f small phones.
I wish they would keep making a phone with a physical home button. I have some elderly relatives who only just grasped the concept of pressing THE button to go back to the home screen (on a SE 2020). Introducing them to gestures is going to be a disaster.
i am using 13 mini since launch, it's a charm till now. even standing at 87% battery health it gives me more than 4 hrs on screen time with wifi(mostly) and 5G. I do not game though.
I have both, and I would say that I like the SE better than the 13 mini, though it's mainly because of personal preference, I still love the home button and the thick upper and lower bezels which are a good resting spot for my thumbs without doing accidental touches.
No, but the Apple Refurbished site has them weekly. You have to keep an eye out for it because people like myself snatch them up quicky. They are essentially brand new. New shells, batteries, etc. Same 1 year warranty. There are Chinese sellers on eBay with multiple accounts trying to sell brand new sealed iPhone 13 mini's and I can tell you from personal experience and from other negative feedback on their accounts, the phones are refurbished and placed back into boxes with new seals installed. The tear away seals are literally just stickers that are easy to peel off, replicate and install new ones. The information on the back of apple boxes are also stickers that come off easily, and these sellers have replicated the sticker information and changed some things around. Dead give aways are font changes, strange spacing, and punctuation. Words capitalized that should be, etc. The one that I purchased and tried (and was able to return). Was a phone with a real serial/IMEI, however somewhere in it's life it got a brand-new shell. The serial was for a blue mini, and mine was green. They changed the info on the back sticker to reflect the color green. It's a pretty well-known racket they are running on eBay and elsewhere. Many people don't have a good eye for this stuff. Apple Refurbished is the way to go. It also helps I can use my military discount. At the time of writing this there is a 512GB unlocked mini on the site.
You didn’t mention that the iPhone 13 mini is now discontinued, which is crucial for those who want a small phone but prefer to avoid used or refurbished options. Additionally, you can get a MagSafe-compatible case for the iPhone SE, effectively adding that functionality.
The SE 3 is still the only choice for the 10% of us that can’t use OLED due to PWM and want a new iPhone! With rumours that the SE 4 will be OLED, millions of customers will be totally disregarded by Apple 😡
@@thinkingoutloud3358OLEDs use PWM (flickering at faster speeds) to lower the brightness. Some people including myself are sensitive to PWM flickering so alot of Androids give DC dimming which just gives less power to each pixel and doesn't flickering and doesn't cause us headaches and etc

Love the 13 mini and have been using it for the past couple of years. Can’t buy it here in Australia any more so keen to see what the 2024 SE is like. Concerned it’ll be huge like the current range so not happy.
I upgraded to a 13 Mini in January this year, and I absolutely love it. It has the same footprint as my iPhone 7 which, at the time, wasn't considered "Mini". I was able to get a mint condition 13 Mini in Product Red, with 100% battery. At the time, the Amazon Apple Store still had new ones on sale, but pink was the only colour still in stock. I'm not a fan of full cases, and I don't want to hide the gorgeous red, so use a bumper and MagSafe grip. I've got a MagSafe battery bank that l also use as a stand to trigger Standby Mode. I use an iPad Mini too, and am impatiently waiting for its upgrade. I was hoping Apple might use the 13 Mini frame for the next SE. If the company thinks we don't want Mini iPhones/iPads, it is VERY wrong. Thanks for the content.
I do not agree with you. I am still using my SE 2nd Gen. It’s doing what it should be doing. My wife uses the 3rd gen SE and she is very happy too. Sure, sometimes the screen is a bit small especially with bad eyes 😂 hey I bought it for really cheap and it is still supported. I guess if you are using a newer model and swap to the SE for testing you will notice differences but the buyer for this phone is not doing that and just wants a cheap iPhone.
I'm totally blind and mostly an android guy but did pick up the SE as a secondary device. Just some accessibility stuff on either platform works better with different apps so it's useful for me to have both. If I'm using the SE on the go it's just hotspotted from my Samsung so I don't really care about the battery life as much. The touch ID is easier for discreetly unlocking my phone in my pocket or whatever than face ID which ended up selling me on the SE over the mini.
The only issue I had with my SE 3 was the battery didn’t last all day. I bought an iPhone 7 Smart Battery Case on ebay and it now lasts all day. I also use the 5 watt charger and my battery health is at 99% after owning this iPhone for 10 months. Also, OLED bothers my eyes so I’m much happier with the lcd screen. My iPhone 14 Pro Max was bothering me to the point that I bought the SE 3. I just wish Apple still sold the Smart Battery Case because it makes this phone perfect for me.
I started out with an 11 pro 4 years later, couple days ago a truck ran through it so i needed something cheap quick. I bought an SE 2 and i’m in love. I wish there was a white version with a white front bezel and a better battery but overall i’m suprisingly satisfied.
I would argue that iPhone 13 mini a waste of money, man. iPhone SE is not worth it. I am still using my good old iPhone 5s here in Czechia and it works just fine
Please just stfu😂😂😂 I like how people act like their old models are just fine whereas if able didn’t make any phone after 6s, everyone would be using an android because apple didn’t upgrade after 6, now apple is upgrading every year and people are acting like they don’t need it😂
@@lalita_soren se3 still are on the 🍏website with the same price. 12mini are appearing time to times on refurbished section of 🍏 website. So it absolutely legal and good quality device. On UK 🍏 website 12mini and 13mini are available now and on German website only 12mini are available. On US still unavailable but 12mini was 6-8 months ago. Probably will be back again around September or the end of the year 🤔
I’m still rocking with my iphone 13 mini at 82% battery life. But still eyeing for this iphone se 3rd gen for extra phone. Also, the feel of having a home button 🤭
I bought one secondhand from cex , luckily had 99% battery health ☺️ i tried using other larger phones, but due to health problems i struggle to hold the larger phones , also a samsung phone with a super amoled screen made my eyes ache. I did have a 13 mini back in 2021 but i sold it some time ago. I like the SE 3 , i like the home button, i don't mind it's not the latest or greatest. It runs all the apps i use , the phone design suits my needs. For me its necessary, but i don't feel like I've had to compromise, I'm just very glad to have something suitable. But if small smartphones (not the flip version) ceases to function then I'll have to go back to the good old days of a button phone (dumb phone as people call them)
It’s a shame that the phone industry has abandoned people who prefer a clean 16:9 rectangular display phone over these long full screen displays with notches and on screen home buttons cutting into content. The SE3 will probably be the last smart phone I ever buy, I hate the current lineup of iPhone designs. I switched from an 8 to a 12 for 2 years and couldn’t wait to pay it off and go back to my bezels and home button and got an SE3.
Love the home button. Slightly bigger screen, same form factor, better camera would be perfect. I love the iPhone SE. I want Touch ID!!! Simple, working
Finally someone saying the SE's design comes from the iPhone 6. It's not a design "from the iPhone 8" as many say due to the back glass. Yes, the 8 added a glass back panel... but did so to a chassis that has undoubtedly stayed unchanged since the 6. And the 6 turns 10 years this year, so yes, time to go... The iPad 9 carried its design all the way back to the first iPad Air from 2013 - which itself was increased size version of the first mini's design from one year before - and is finally gone, I hope they ditch this SE chassis and give us a decent smaller option, now that the minis are dead
Just buy a MagSafe compatible case and an anker 321 battery. I own both the 3rd Gen se and the 13 mini. Aside from the aspect ratio they are quite similar. And if you are with straight talk, the 3rd gen se is $150…
@@Lucifer-vx7gj I have SE 2020 before but sold it and upgraded to SE 2022. Yes the battery life sucks on SE 2020. Reason why I have an SE is because it's like an iPod Touch and having a second phone is like convenient for me in case my 14 Pro Max dies. Also I bought the SE 2022 for $300 with 256 Gb storage 😊
I just bought the SE when my pixel 6a started dropping service. I wanted the cheapest (new) iphone to try out Apple since I have an ipad and MacBook already. So far I like it and I love how small it is. If I decide to stick with an iphone, I'll return this and get the new 16.
I don’t get what the problem is. It works perfect for me. I have an SE my entire life and to me. It’s absolutely in the elite product plus everybody wants so much with their phone. Sometimes we say something very simple.
Lots of evidence coming to light the impact of smart phones have on our brain - like actual changes in the size and structure of various parts of it. I have no doubt in my mind now, that buttons and tactile feedback is 100% better for you in the long-run than the trash we have now.
It’s likely the reason why even though Apple started with 1x & 2x lens, they decided to put more more useless .5 on the cheaper one. They know more people would want the zoom.
One thing id like to say is that i got my se for $120 in a pretty good conditon, while i really want a 13 mini, theyre still $300-400+ right now. So if you really want something cheap, get the se. Also i didnt realize how much i missed the home button either. Its legendary.
@@spec8888 That was the point for me. I made it into a dumbphone with very little amount of apps. I use my phone far less now and I can get through 3 days without charging it due to that. My life has been so much better and clearer.
The best/perfect form factor for me is Apple's iPhone 5s. The size of the phone is just right. The newer SE is just hovering under it. The 5s is still the perfect form of any iphone.
I love the whole body design and size of the SE2 compared to the 13 Mini (I have both of them!). I wish the SE4 will stay in the same physical build as SE2/SE3 but without bezels, no notch screen, no OLED, wide angle camera mode and better battery life. I think they should keep the home button too!
The 3rd gen mini is really cheap compared to the iPhone 13 mini.its literally half the price I just got a 3rd gen se with full battery health and great overall condition for 150 quid,the 13 mini is 300 plus in similar condition.Plus the se has larger app icons as the screen is broader.Its a little bargain for 150.The Touch ID button is fantastic.
Only reason to get this iPhone is for Touch ID and a physical sim tray, now that the 13 is discontinued in the US. However, those are both really strong reasons. Honestly before the 15 launched the 13 Mini was just way better but Apple has found a way to make the SE 3 a great deal without actually making it better while releasing 2 new phone generations.
i have the se 2022 as a backup and if i had to choose a 13 mini or se, id pick the 13 mini easily. better screen, better camera, better battery, etc. that being said, i still love the se but i hope the next design is like the 13 mini or xr at atleast.
I seen so many videos about this phone. I want to know what they say. But why? This is my phone of choice no matter the comments or pros and cons. I love Touch ID. I love using it one handed. Yes phones such as the 13 may be better, but you should get what works for you and suits you. And large phones just ain’t for me. I’ve had SE1, 8, SE2. I tried iPhone 13 and realised it’s nice but not for me. So I’m getting an SE3 because that is the next phone for me. I don’t need bigger, better etc. I call the SE my baby. And that’s exactly how it will stay until I can no longer use this type of phone.
I love my I phone SE 3 as a student money is limited for me I just wish I got a bigger storage instead of the 64 gigs. Also as long my device keeps having updates, I will be using it until not supported any more right now I am on the IOS 18 beta so it should be supported for a very long time I hope.
I traded my se 3 for the 12 pro with a friend straight up. They preferred the home button and smaller phone. I was perfectly happy with my se 3, it was just too good a deal to pass up. I do sometimes forget my current phone doesn't have a home button. I wish Apple would put a fingerprint scanner in the power button, so we can have touch id and face id
Very nice video! I’m using iPhone SE 2nd gen that I bought refurbished for 149$ and I’m very happy with it. I just want to ask what’s the widget you are using in the SE! Thank you!
Just buy a refurb iPhone SE it’s really affordable and good for storage and longevity. And if you know how to work on one of these like changing a battery, this will last forever! And it’s got 5g so this will last for decades if you choose to keep using it after it loses support!
bro you missed one really big point - the typing experience in mini is disastrous while SE still gives you a standard sized iphone keyboard instead. I think in overall SE gives you less trade-off in daily usage if you're switching from a bigger iphone like the iphone 11 pro or 12 pro max.
Just make the iphone SE bigger like the iphone 8 plus and all will be fine for a lot of people. Bezels is false debate. The loss of the finger print button is my deal breaker. Can’t get used to looking at the phone notch to unlock it and many people seem not to realize the loss of the finger print button
I used the 2020 iPhone SE for 5 months before I broke down and bought a used iPhone 11. I didn’t mind the actual body of the phone but I just couldn’t get used to that screen size.
You have many cover cases with magsafe built-in, the screen size is good for what it is meant for, the rest is a matter of taste. I prefer touch id and I don't like working on ios without a button. The experience is closer to iphone 8 than iphone 6. I bought one as soon as it appeared, and I bought the other recently and keep it in the box as a spare, I would never buy 13 mini, it's pointless
i may have to get used to it at some point down the line, but I'll probably upgrade my current SE 2 to an SE 3 within the next year (depends if the 16 proper or SE 4 ends up being).
" you have LCD display instead of OLED " - actually OLED is one of subtypes of LCD display. TFT, TN, IPS, OLED, AMOLED, POLED, you-name-it - all of them are different types of LCD displays.
And here I am sitting watching on my iPhone XR hoping it will be supported for another two or three years because I really see no benefit in swapping phones asking as the old one still works perfectly fine. It was different 10 years ago. But since around 5 years I do not see any real evolution. Only gradual improvement in things I personally don’t need. As long as you don’t jump at least four orbfove generations, I generally don’t consider it worth it.
iPhone 13 mini was amazing It's not sale because it's in iPhone best line-up. See like iPhone x series the iPhone X is less sold because of amazing iPhone XS As iPhone 13 mini sold less Because of iPhone 13 is so good upgrade and iPhone 13 pro flagship specs. It's always apple weird way to put good device into main lineup iPhone SE series And mini series is first unnecessary then love by lots of folks but the series should be launched seperately. Just like touch bar MacBook was like by lots of folks but apple ruined them by main device. Last year MacBook pro 14 M3 is pivotal but it's amazing deal if it's affordable price in future. Apple has always odd device in each line-up Nobody like watch SE without AOD Nobody like 60 hz flagship phone Nobody like pro laptop with 8gb Ram Nobody like phone with single camera Nobody like a mouse too slim frustrated to hold Etc Etc But apple don't cares😙😙😙

Yeah...im still using my nokia 3310...So worth it... battery 3 days lasting...Can throw at people...
Coz u cant just afford and u are stuck using the 5s
what? I can barely scroll through apps with it it's laggy asf. I only use it for cellular calls and texts☠️
Please just stfu😂😂😂 I like how people act like their old models are just fine whereas if able didn’t make any phone after 6s, everyone would be using an android because apple didn’t upgrade after 6, now apple is upgrading every year and people are acting like they don’t need it😂
Honestly the only aspect that the SE beats 13 mini in is the fact that it has the home button
I’ll agree that I immediately remembered how great TouchID is.
2 weeks ago, I switched from 12 mini to SE 3 got new cases too. 😊 i find it more faster to use and lighter.
Where did you get it? The se3 ofc
@@lalita_soren se3 still are on the 🍏website with the same price.
12mini are appearing time to times on refurbished section of 🍏 website. So it absolutely legal and good quality device.
On UK 🍏 website 12mini and 13mini are available now and on German website only 12mini are available. On US still unavailable but 12mini was 6-8 months ago. Probably will be back again around September or the end of the year 🤔
Coming from 14pm the se3 is surprisingly fast and the battery is about the same as the 11pro but drops less while gaming.
I’m still rocking with my iphone 13 mini at 82% battery life.
But still eyeing for this iphone se 3rd gen for extra phone.
Also, the feel of having a home button
🤭
I'm still using an iPhone SE (1) from 2016 and really like it.
I bought one secondhand from cex , luckily had 99% battery health ☺️ i tried using other larger phones, but due to health problems i struggle to hold the larger phones , also a samsung phone with a super amoled screen made my eyes ache. I did have a 13 mini back in 2021 but i sold it some time ago. I like the SE 3 , i like the home button, i don't mind it's not the latest or greatest. It runs all the apps i use , the phone design suits my needs. For me its necessary, but i don't feel like I've had to compromise, I'm just very glad to have something suitable. But if small smartphones (not the flip version) ceases to function then I'll have to go back to the good old days of a button phone (dumb phone as people call them)
It’s a shame that the phone industry has abandoned people who prefer a clean 16:9 rectangular display phone over these long full screen displays with notches and on screen home buttons cutting into content. The SE3 will probably be the last smart phone I ever buy, I hate the current lineup of iPhone designs. I switched from an 8 to a 12 for 2 years and couldn’t wait to pay it off and go back to my bezels and home button and got an SE3.
Love the home button. Slightly bigger screen, same form factor, better camera would be perfect. I love the iPhone SE. I want Touch ID!!! Simple, working
I love that intro especially the se sliding down the wireless charger!!! Made me watch the whole thing lol
As long as that home button is there I'll keep buying 😊
Finally someone saying the SE's design comes from the iPhone 6. It's not a design "from the iPhone 8" as many say due to the back glass. Yes, the 8 added a glass back panel... but did so to a chassis that has undoubtedly stayed unchanged since the 6. And the 6 turns 10 years this year, so yes, time to go... The iPad 9 carried its design all the way back to the first iPad Air from 2013 - which itself was increased size version of the first mini's design from one year before - and is finally gone, I hope they ditch this SE chassis and give us a decent smaller option, now that the minis are dead
Just buy a MagSafe compatible case and an anker 321 battery. I own both the 3rd Gen se and the 13 mini. Aside from the aspect ratio they are quite similar. And if you are with straight talk, the 3rd gen se is $150…
I love the SE 2022 and I'm using it as a secondary phone. My primary phone is 14 Pro Max 😊
I have SE 2020 :/ it’s good phone but battery is not good. But I’m planning to upgrade for 14 Pro Max or maybe 15 Pro 😅
@@Lucifer-vx7gj I have SE 2020 before but sold it and upgraded to SE 2022. Yes the battery life sucks on SE 2020. Reason why I have an SE is because it's like an iPod Touch and having a second phone is like convenient for me in case my 14 Pro Max dies. Also I bought the SE 2022 for $300 with 256 Gb storage 😊
@@TheKRAKEN163where did u buy that SE from?
I just bought the SE when my pixel 6a started dropping service. I wanted the cheapest (new) iphone to try out Apple since I have an ipad and MacBook already. So far I like it and I love how small it is. If I decide to stick with an iphone, I'll return this and get the new 16.
The best thing Apple could do imho is using the iPhone Mini form-factor for the next SE
I don’t get what the problem is. It works perfect for me. I have an SE my entire life and to me. It’s absolutely in the elite product plus everybody wants so much with their phone. Sometimes we say something very simple.
Just brought a SE3 for $150 new from Walmart, I brought a MagSafe case and screen protector and it works fine …no regrets.
My favourite design iPhones
iPhone 5s or SE 1st
iPhone X or Xs silver
iPhone 15 pro
SE 3 & 13 mini is good for secondary device.😊
i wish they make the iphone 5 size and design with full desplays. i would buy it even if it costs more than the pro series
Where are the phones for those of us klutzes with small hands and never use it to watch movies on such a small screen?
i have the Iphone SE 2022 and it's just GREAT!
Wow, stunning video quality and spot on analysis! Thank you, you deserve so many more subscribers and views!
I went from a 13 mini to SE3 due to having Pwm. I miss my 13 mini so much
Same but you know I can’t complain, it does about as much as my mini and the home button is a lot more reliable.
thanks, this video helped me to decide that I want to switch to iPhone SE from 15 pro. I need some digital detox...
I have a SE 3 as business phone, I love it!
Lots of evidence coming to light the impact of smart phones have on our brain - like actual changes in the size and structure of various parts of it. I have no doubt in my mind now, that buttons and tactile feedback is 100% better for you in the long-run than the trash we have now.
Ultra wide is such a gimmick like who even uses it except for landlord taking picture of their rented apartment
It’s likely the reason why even though Apple started with 1x & 2x lens, they decided to put more more useless .5 on the cheaper one. They know more people would want the zoom.
I use it a lot 🤷♂️ much more than 1x
I have a 12 pro though and the ultra wide is better than the minis
One thing id like to say is that i got my se for $120 in a pretty good conditon, while i really want a 13 mini, theyre still $300-400+ right now. So if you really want something cheap, get the se. Also i didnt realize how much i missed the home button either. Its legendary.
I just switched to a se 3 from a 13 mini. Can’t beat it I don’t think I want to go back for a long time.
@@EliezYT The #1 thing is that the SE has an LCD panel and the massive bezels, the rest of it is great but the screen is just outdated
@@spec8888 That was the point for me. I made it into a dumbphone with very little amount of apps. I use my phone far less now and I can get through 3 days without charging it due to that. My life has been so much better and clearer.
The best/perfect form factor for me is Apple's iPhone 5s. The size of the phone is just right. The newer SE is just hovering under it. The 5s is still the perfect form of any iphone.
I love the whole body design and size of the SE2 compared to the 13 Mini (I have both of them!). I wish the SE4 will stay in the same physical build as SE2/SE3 but without bezels, no notch screen, no OLED, wide angle camera mode and better battery life. I think they should keep the home button too!
The 3rd gen mini is really cheap compared to the iPhone 13 mini.its literally half the price I just got a 3rd gen se with full battery health and great overall condition for 150 quid,the 13 mini is 300 plus in similar condition.Plus the se has larger app icons as the screen is broader.Its a little bargain for 150.The Touch ID button is fantastic.
Almost bought an extra se3 coz they were selling it for $40 T-Mobile locked
I have had all the iPhone SE models and I loved it.
Nombre de la aplicación? Ese widget que tienes en tu pantalla de inicio se ve curioso.
The SE 3 is a dated phone? It just came out 2 years ago.
You'll never get my wife to part with her iPhone 12 Mini.
Only reason to get this iPhone is for Touch ID and a physical sim tray, now that the 13 is discontinued in the US. However, those are both really strong reasons. Honestly before the 15 launched the 13 Mini was just way better but Apple has found a way to make the SE 3 a great deal without actually making it better while releasing 2 new phone generations.
So in a nutshell it's not that small and also bad in almost every other way.
i have the se 2022 as a backup and if i had to choose a 13 mini or se, id pick the 13 mini easily. better screen, better camera, better battery, etc. that being said, i still love the se but i hope the next design is like the 13 mini or xr at atleast.
Home button for the win
I miss small phones (under 5 inch) so bad !
I seen so many videos about this phone. I want to know what they say. But why? This is my phone of choice no matter the comments or pros and cons. I love Touch ID. I love using it one handed. Yes phones such as the 13 may be better, but you should get what works for you and suits you. And large phones just ain’t for me. I’ve had SE1, 8, SE2. I tried iPhone 13 and realised it’s nice but not for me. So I’m getting an SE3 because that is the next phone for me. I don’t need bigger, better etc. I call the SE my baby. And that’s exactly how it will stay until I can no longer use this type of phone.
This is still the perfect work phone. Compact, robust, easy to use with one hand. Has the latest iOS and basic features you need.
I love my I phone SE 3 as a student money is limited for me I just wish I got a bigger storage instead of the 64 gigs. Also as long my device keeps having updates, I will be using it until not supported any more right now I am on the IOS 18 beta so it should be supported for a very long time I hope.
I have an iPhone SE 3 and I love it
How long does the battery last , and r u heavey or liter user my guy ???
I’ve wanted this phone ever since I got my iPhone 13
I traded my se 3 for the 12 pro with a friend straight up. They preferred the home button and smaller phone. I was perfectly happy with my se 3, it was just too good a deal to pass up. I do sometimes forget my current phone doesn't have a home button. I wish Apple would put a fingerprint scanner in the power button, so we can have touch id and face id
Very nice video! I’m using iPhone SE 2nd gen that I bought refurbished for 149$ and I’m very happy with it. I just want to ask what’s the widget you are using in the SE! Thank you!
Thank you! Just added the link in the description. See “iPhone Widgets”.
@@VittorTechThank you, didn’t know it costs tho :(
Just buy a refurb iPhone SE it’s really affordable and good for storage and longevity. And if you know how to work on one of these like changing a battery, this will last forever! And it’s got 5g so this will last for decades if you choose to keep using it after it loses support!
I’m still rocking 30 month old iPhone 13 Pro Max with 89% of battery health that last easily two days for me and pretty good camera.
If TouchID is on the newer phones, I’ll upgrade to it
I actually chose this phone over a $1000 new iPhone and been happy since. Plus i got it for free for switching to Verizon ❤
They only need to make the current se a full screen display with a transparent finger print button.
bro you missed one really big point - the typing experience in mini is disastrous while SE still gives you a standard sized iphone keyboard instead. I think in overall SE gives you less trade-off in daily usage if you're switching from a bigger iphone like the iphone 11 pro or 12 pro max.
Just make the iphone SE bigger like the iphone 8 plus and all will be fine for a lot of people.
Bezels is false debate.
The loss of the finger print button is my deal breaker.
Can’t get used to looking at the phone notch to unlock it and many people seem not to realize the loss of the finger print button
What a perfect video, thanks for your sincere opinion
The last best simple phone
what widget do you use on the homescreen of the SE ?
I used the 2020 iPhone SE for 5 months before I broke down and bought a used iPhone 11. I didn’t mind the actual body of the phone but I just couldn’t get used to that screen size.
You have many cover cases with magsafe built-in, the screen size is good for what it is meant for, the rest is a matter of taste. I prefer touch id and I don't like working on ios without a button. The experience is closer to iphone 8 than iphone 6.
I bought one as soon as it appeared, and I bought the other recently and keep it in the box as a spare, I would never buy 13 mini, it's pointless
A case with magsafe built in...wonderful!! I just ordered se 3rd Gen I'm looking forward to it.
I've got the iPhone 13 mini and love it. I'll probably get the new iPhone SE due out in September.
SE 4 Concerteza vai ser o meu próximo iPhone, porque gostei do Design
never use ai to make your voice sound more clean, it makes you sound more like a ai tts, overall the video is good
i may have to get used to it at some point down the line, but I'll probably upgrade my current SE 2 to an SE 3 within the next year (depends if the 16 proper or SE 4 ends up being).
Rumours have said the next gen SE isn’t coming this year :(
I can't afford iphone 13 yet and im using iphone SE and its treating me so good so far
" you have LCD display instead of OLED " - actually OLED is one of subtypes of LCD display. TFT, TN, IPS, OLED, AMOLED, POLED, you-name-it - all of them are different types of LCD displays.
if i could i would still use mu 4'3 razr i, i just dont like huge phones,SE turned into my sweet spot but i dont know for how long they ll allow it
What’s the battery widget on the SE?
If mini was made with one small delicate camera instead that huge two cameras, it would be probably the best iPhone ever 😕
And here I am sitting watching on my iPhone XR hoping it will be supported for another two or three years because I really see no benefit in swapping phones asking as the old one still works perfectly fine.
It was different 10 years ago. But since around 5 years I do not see any real evolution. Only gradual improvement in things I personally don’t need.
As long as you don’t jump at least four orbfove generations, I generally don’t consider it worth it.
I wish they bring back the white front next monday as se4
Super interested in this video
the last iphone if u are pwm sensitive. will be the backup phone to iphone 11. lcd screens only
by just listening to you for 5 minutes I decided to subscribe your channel
iPhone 13 mini was amazing
It's not sale because it's in iPhone best line-up.
See like iPhone x series
the iPhone X is less sold because of amazing iPhone XS
As
iPhone 13 mini sold less
Because of iPhone 13 is so good upgrade and iPhone 13 pro flagship specs.
It's always apple weird way to put good device into main lineup
iPhone SE series
And mini series is first unnecessary then love by lots of folks but the series should be launched seperately.
Just like touch bar MacBook was like by lots of folks but apple ruined them by main device.
Last year MacBook pro 14 M3 is pivotal but it's amazing deal if it's affordable price in future.
Apple has always odd device in each line-up
Nobody like watch SE without AOD
Nobody like 60 hz flagship phone
Nobody like pro laptop with 8gb Ram
Nobody like phone with single camera
Nobody like a mouse too slim frustrated to hold
Etc Etc
But apple don't cares😙😙😙
