Since my phone is broken, I was considering to buy a non iPhone alternative. Now that they announced the new iPhone SE I'm curious cause it's not that expensive. To the tech experts: is this phone worth it?
It's 2020 they're all the same
Just buy the phone based off looks at this point
Idk but my mess started LAGGING today. I was trying to wait for the 12 mess coming this Fall, but idk if I can.
Also I wanna get the reduced price by sending my old iPhone in. Do y'all think they'd notice that it's a bit fucked? For some reason I can't place calls or record audio anymore with it....

They will. Sounds like serious damage.
You're already immersed in their ecosystem, just get it.

it looks and works fine other than that. :ohwow: But you're right, they'll notice.
Yes, for an iPhone it's worth it. Spec-wise it's the iPhone 11 series, in an iPhone 8 body.
The only thing you don't get is the triple camera set up and Face ID.
I would get it tbh.

True...do I have to get the AppleCare mess to be able to get the phone repaired for free?
I just wish it was bigger. I miss the fingerprint.

I don't need/ want Face ID anyway. What's so special about the triple camera?

Yeah it is. I'm saying I wish the phone was bigger cause it would be perfect for me. I miss the fingerprint so I want it back.

Wide angle shots and portrait shots.
The SE has the same main camera as the 11 series though, so the quality of regular photos should be the same.
and you can still do portrait via the software on the main camera.

Ok that should be good enough! Thank you so much for the info :)
My only issue is that the design is almost identical to the 6. I don't wanna feel like I'm getting a phone I got 6 damn years ago

Yeah but people miss it. The world still favors it over the Face ID.

I just checked the trade-in value and if I turned in my X, I would only have to pay $75 for this SE.
Idk that may have sold it for me :ohwow:
That's the phone I have too. My X is always running hot and I'm ignored.
just checked how much they'd charge to fix my iphone 7. it says 281 EUR...bye bitch, im officially ordering the SE tomorrow!
