Apple today announced the second-generation iPhone SE, a powerful new iPhone featuring a 4.7-inch Retina HD display, paired with Touch ID for industry-leading security. iPhone SE comes in a compact design, reinvented from the inside out, and is the most affordable iPhone. The new iPhone SE is powered by the Apple-designed A13 Bionic, the fastest chip in a smartphone, to handle the most demanding tasks. iPhone SE also features the best single-camera system ever in an iPhone, which unlocks the benefits of computational photography including Portrait mode, and is designed to withstand the elements with dust and water resistance.

Is anyone on ERA buying one? If you trade in an iPhone 8 then it goes down to 229, and $9/month for those who were wondering..

For me $9/month for however long is tempting af.

Damn, it having the A13 chip is really enticing. Sucks that it has such a small screen, though, less interested in getting it over the budget iPad.

Out of no where. Was hoping for an all screen design, but touch id is back to being a killer feature in these mask wearing times.

"Same battery life as iPhone 8" any other details? The original SE had amazing battery for when it launched.

Home button and huge bezels? LOL. Apple is so stupid.

Stupid is the wrong word. Wholly uninspiring is more apt for how I feel about this and many of their other products of late.

So, basically it's

iPhone 8 body
iPhone 11 internals (CPU/GPU)

what's the camera equivalent?

It's weird that there's no mention of Night mode. Which is weird, because iPhone XS owners were told that the A13 chip is what makes night mode possible. What gives?

Does this support 5G?

Insta buy if it does.

The inclusion of home button and small size makes it instantly the best iphone for me.

I wasn't expecting it to come with an A13.

I never thought I'd see the day, but this is actually a good deal from Apple.

Damn, this phone will most likely last as long as the original iPhone SE considering it's using the latest A13 Bionic chip. Too bad it still has these ugly bezels, ugh.

So it appears that the camera does not have the night mode. That's somewhat disappointing as I thought it was really a software feature that required the new processor. Oh well there are 3rd apps that do a pretty good job of replicating it.

Black bezels on the white model has killed it for me. I'll probably just wait for the rumoured 5.4-inch OLED iPhone 12.

It's an iPhone with top of the line internals and camera for $399. This will easily be Apple's best selling iPhone this year.

How does that change the fact that their design is outdated and stupid? Every other phone they make is overpriced, so yeah, the cheaper one is going to sell more. How is that shocking? The XR outsold the more expensive phones too.

Still too big and no headphone jack means my old SE is going to have to keep on chugging on for the foreseeable future.
