Detailed review and testing of Apple iPhone SE. Detailed review and testing of Apple iPhone SE New iPhone se

The range of Apple smartphones this year is larger than ever. It's easy to get lost among 8 models And 42 (!) modifications.

Apple has removed the intermediate average amount of memory and now this year's new products are available with 64 or 256 GB drives, and all other smartphones with 32 or 128 GB of memory.

Let's figure out together which iPhone is better to buy this fall.

iPhone SE

You will be surprised, but in 2017 many smartphone users feel comfortable with 4-inch devices. They are easy to operate with one hand; smartphones are very compact.

IN model range After Apple's recent presentation, there is only one current 4-inch model left - the iPhone SE.

The smartphone is good in both hardware and camera, it supports most iOS features, and the price is quite reasonable.

iPhone SE is the most affordable ticket to the world of iOS; the device is perfect as a first iPhone.

If you already have it: You won’t be able to make much profit by selling such a smartphone; a few months ago it... Even if you sell it at a good price, you will only be able to buy a mediocre Android smartphone with the proceeds.

iPhone 6s/6s Plus

Just imagine that this is the only current Apple smartphone with a normal display by today’s standards and a 3.5 mm headset jack.

In a year or a year and a half, everyone will forget about this element in iPhones. Just for the sake of being able to listen to music normally, you can already look towards the iPhone 6s.

At the same time, you get the most affordable iPhone with a 4.7-inch (or 5.5-inch) display and 3D-Touch support. There is only no moisture protection, as in older models.

The only disappointing thing is the big difference in price between the iPhone SE and iPhone 6s. For the cost of an Eski with a large amount of memory, you can buy two SE.

If you already have it: continue to use, the device will receive more than one year iOS updates and handle most typical tasks.

If you are thinking about changing your device, hurry up. iPhone 6s is getting cheaper every day.

iPhone 7/7 Plus

Last year's flagship, as expected, dropped to third place in the iPhone line. At the same time, the device became noticeably cheaper, but became available with only two storage options. Apple also no longer sells the iPhone 7 in red.

If you only need a red one, quickly check reseller sites; in a couple of months you won’t find an iPhone 7 in this color, and it is unknown whether new models will be presented under the (PRODUCT)RED program.

“Seven” is now sold in a maximum range of colors. In addition to red, the usual silver, gold, pink and black (matte or glossy) models are available.

If you already have it: you missed the chance to sell iPhone 7 for maximum profit. This had to be done before Apple's autumn presentation. Now accept the fact that you will have to lower the price or continue to use the device until at least next fall.

iPhone 8/8 Plus

The device turned out to be very ambiguous. This is not a new flagship, and in appearance it differs from last year’s iPhone only in the case materials, and it’s already boring in appearance.

At the same time, the device received the long-awaited wireless charging and an advanced camera.

If the device is purchased to replace a simple camera, you need to look only towards the Plus model.

At buying an iPhone 8/ 8 Plus, be prepared to spend money on additional accessories. You can reveal all the capabilities of the model only with wireless charger or, providing fast charging via wire.

If you already have it: You may not yet have the device itself, but a pre-order is fine. Congratulations. Now you have to carry your iPhone without covers or cases so that everyone can see which model you have in your hands.

iPhone X

This is it - the new flagship with a fabulous price tag, questionable ergonomics and a 5.8-inch display.

The high price tag makes even buying a smartphone in the USA through a conditional parcel post not the most profitable idea.

It makes sense to buy a smartphone in the following situations:

  • you have an iPhone 5/6 that is outdated/obsolete and you want something really new;
  • you are used to using only flagships and change iPhones every year;
  • you need an iPhone for show-off, which everyone will recognize from afar;
  • you want a smartphone with a couple of cool cameras (front and main);
  • I have an extra 80 thousand rubles.

In other situations, you can safely look at more affordable models.

If you already have it: don't lie, it's Chinese copy from AliExpress.

Summary for those who haven't read:

1. If you need the cheapest and/or most compact iPhone, take the SE from RUB 20,990.

2. If you need an iPhone with a headphone jack, get the iPhone 6s from RUB 35,990. or iPhone 6s Plus from RUB 43,990.

3. If you need a modern flagship, buy iPhone 8 from RUB 56,990. or iPhone 8 Plus

Before we begin summing up the results of the past week, a small announcement. We launched in our group "VKontakte" another draw! This time we are playing a unique accessory HIPER SPIM-01, which allows you to make any iPhone dual-SIM! You just need to insert a SIM card into it and connect the gadget to your Apple smartphone via Bluetooth. Immediately after this, the iPhone will be able to receive calls and text messages from two SIM cards. No original iPhone has this feature. You can find a detailed review of HIPER SPIM-01.

The drawing will take place in less than two weeks, on May 13th. Simple conditions for participation are available at this link. We wish you good luck!

And now to the news and materials, of which there have been a lot over the past seven days. Let's start with the latest information about Apple's upcoming flagship, the so-called iPhone 8. Just a week ago, the smartphone was predicted to have a far from natural location for the Touch ID fingerprint scanner - on the back surface. Fortunately, these rumors were refuted, and not just with words.

The first to distinguish himself was insider Veniamin Geskin, who published iPhone 8 mockup photos, which he received from a Foxconn employee. The pictures confirmed most of the previous leaks, but only pleasant ones. The iPhone 8 mockup has an edge-to-edge display, dual vertical cameras and an elongated power button.

The mockup points out a lot of the anniversary iPhone's features, but the main thing is that there's nothing on its back except for the vertical dual camera (still protruding from the body). This means that Apple engineers were able to place the Touch ID fingerprint scanner in a different location. The layout does not show its exact location, but gives hints. So, extending the Power button could well be necessary to accommodate that same scanner. According to the experience of Sony, which has long installed a fingerprint scanner in the side power button, this decision will turn out to be quite successful.

Apple’s plans were also confirmed by an anonymous leak on the Chinese social network Weibo. A person who claimed to have connections with employees of Apple's key manufacturing partners posted on social media schematic illustration of iPhone 8. It doesn’t tell anything new - the smartphone has an elongated shape and a vertical dual camera. However, there is no Touch ID scanner on the back cover, which is additional confirmation of Apple’s refusal to do so controversial decision. Note that the owners of the new Samsung flagship, Galaxy S8, called the placement of the fingerprint scanner on the back cover, right next to the camera lens, a bad engineering decision by the South Korean company. Apple is better don't do that.

Touch ID did not appear on the back of the iPhone 8 or on the smartphone case, photo which leaked onto the Internet. The picture further convinced everyone of Apple’s intentions to equip the anniversary iPhone with a vertical dual camera and an elongated power button. These features seem to be really worth waiting for. This is hinted at by the experience of previous years, in which the main features of the new iPhones became known thanks to leaks long before the presentation.

The above-mentioned Veniamin Geskin later scored another “loss”. Still referring to the Foxconn employee, he published a schematic image of components anniversary iPhone. According to the illustration, the iPhone 8 will have a dual L-shaped battery, which will make Apple's latest smartphone the most battery-powered on the market. The image shows that a significant portion of the space inside the iPhone 8 is taken up by batteries. The smartphone has two of them, as other analysts had previously predicted. It is assumed that the combined battery capacity will be 2700 mAh.

Finishing about the iPhone 8, we would like to recommend chic concept Apple's next flagship. ConceptsiPhone resource designers showed what the iPhone 8 (aka iPhone X or iPhone Edition) might look like in white. It turned out great, this is the iPhone everyone is waiting for.

Last week, Apple released two beta versions of iOS 10.3.2 - fourth And fifth according to the account. Both updates brought with them exclusively bug fixes, especially iOS 10.3.2 beta 4 ( what's new). True, all the removed errors were minor - to the delight of users, no serious problems were noticed in iOS 10.3 and iOS 10.3.1.

Meanwhile, users found in iOS 10 another strange bug. It doesn't take much time to use a new bug. All you need to do is open Control Center, and then simultaneously touch three buttons: Night Shift, AirDrop and one of the three presented in the bottom row (calculator, camera or timer). Immediately after this iPhone or iPad, even running the latest beta iOS versions 10.3.2, will freeze. It will only help bring the device back to life forced reboot. It is noteworthy that the error was not fixed in the latest beta versions of iOS 10.3.2. It is likely that she will reach final version systems.

The lull in the jailbreak world has been broken. The Chinese hacker group Pangu, known for hacking several versions of iOS, managed to carry out jailbreak iOS 10.3.1 on iPhone 7. The developers showed the result of their work at a conference on mobile security, which was held in China. The best part is that the hackers have clarified that they have plans to release a publicly available jailbreak tool. In other words, iPhone and iPad users may soon be able to “hack” their devices again.

Before the conference WWDC 2017 There is just over a month left, and there is very little verified information about iOS 11. Head of department Apple Music Jimmy Iovine decided not to rely on insiders, and he himself revealed one of the main innovations of iOS 11. He stated that the Music application and music service Apple Music is coming with major changes in iOS 11. In particular, it will appear more videos- original TV shows and various programs from Apple and its partners.

Apple services are still developing. April 25 Sberbank Visa card carriers got the opportunity use a payment service Apple Pay. Influx of new Apple users Pay is expected to be serious, since previously Sberbank only supported Mastercard cards. You can learn more about what Apple Pay is, how to set up the service and what devices it supports at this article .

In the future, Apple Pay will seriously expand its functionality. A new leak indicated that the company is in talks with banks and payment systems to launch its own

iPhone SE 2017 is distinguished exclusively by updated memory and, therefore, price. Instead of the usual 16 and 64 gigabytes of memory, 32 or 128 are now available, and the cost will be 32,990 rubles. and 40990 rub.

The colors remain the same, space grey, silver, gold and rose gold. SE is equipped with 2 gigabytes RAM and an Apple A9 processor plus an M9 coprocessor. However, due to the low screen resolution, the SE runs faster than the iPhone 7. All the most powerful games run on it, and applications open instantly.

Screen

As for the screen, the problem with color deviations has not been solved; the installation here is not the best IPS matrix, with a resolution of 1136x640 pixels. At angles, the black color turns red, everything else turns blue, this is not good, but the screen cannot be called bad, it’s just not ideal.

Cameras

Cameras. On the back, it's still a 12 megapixel sensor, the same as the iPhone 6s. And I’ll tell you that the quality of the camera is almost no different from the iPhone 7; even now it can be called top-end in the SE, which cannot be said about the 1.2 megapixel front camera; frankly speaking, the quality is not acceptable by today’s standards.

Autonomy

But the SE has incredible autonomy; having a battery of only 1624mA, the phone can last from a full day to two days under moderate load. Simply put, it keeps at the level of 7 plus, and better than 7.

What is so good about SE?

What is so good about SE? Now, in fact, this is the only option for those who need a modern smartphone with a small screen. It is very compact, and even in a case it remains compact. Simply put, using one hand is extremely convenient.






It’s a pity that they didn’t update Touch ID, it’s the first generation here and quite slow. If Apple had made the only key on the front part touch-sensitive, like in the iPhone 7, then all questions about the SE would disappear altogether.

All the same colors

Of course, it would be great to see the SE in onyx color, but space gray doesn’t look bad either. In a word, the 4-inch iPhone could be improved a little more. But maybe Apple is preparing a mini version for the next generation. Let's see.

Now, when choosing an iPhone, you definitely shouldn’t look at the 6S or 6S plus; the 7 costs a little more, but the SE seems to be the most balanced iPhone. This phone doesn’t have any serious problems, you just need to love its compactness.

Why not iPhone7?

Why not 7? No, the seven is also good, only after the Galaxy S8, Apple is unlikely to release some kind of weak update with the letter S. We will most likely see a completely new, anniversary iPhone with a frameless screen and the seven will look like the last century against its background. A SE looks like the last century for a long time, so there’s nothing to worry about here, you immediately know what you’re getting into.

Compared to Samsung Galaxy S8

Conclusion

Answering the main question, yes, in 2017 the iPhone SE is more than relevant.

Hi all! The September presentation of Apple has died down, the company presented as many as three new devices, leaving almost all the old ones on sale iPhone models and... Apple, damn it, what are you doing? For what? How good it was before - there is one on the market new model iPhone and one from last year. If you want something cheaper, you take a year-old iPhone. If you want maximum performance, you buy a newly announced smartphone.

Many did not like this lack of choice and they got what they wanted... On at the moment(beginning of 2018), the Apple online store presents 8 (eight, Karl!) different models iPhone. This is not counting the numerous configurations with memory capacity.

A separate song about memory...

Enough Apple, you've already confused everyone! Even I, a person who closely follows all these iPhones, don’t have time to remember which model has so many gigabytes - either this iPhone is 16GB, or they stopped producing it. They added 256GB, then removed 128GB. Ah-ah-ah! :)

And we have to live with all this goodness until the next Apple presentation in September 2018. No, perhaps some kind of iPhone SE 2 will be presented in the spring, but this will not change the overall picture much. And most likely it will make the choice even more difficult.

But so far we have “only” 8 different models, so let’s figure it out - which iPhone to buy at the end of 2017 so that you won’t be embarrassed to carry it around in 2018? Let's go!

A few important notes:

  1. We will not consider memory capacity - everyone has their own preferences and tasks. For some, 32GB is enough, but for others, 256 is not enough.
  2. All instructions are the personal and subjective opinion of the author, who is looking for a replacement for his 4-year-old iPhone 5S.
  3. We won’t get into the details (otherwise the text would be simply huge), so let’s look at the main pros and cons and choose the leader among iPhones for 2017-2018.

iPhone 5S vs iPhone SE vs iPhone SE 2(?)

A subtitle for those who choose a compact smartphone from Apple. And here the company (at the end of 2017 - beginning of 2018) leaves no chance for choice. You need to take the iPhone SE and completely forget about the iPhone 5S. Dot.

The most powerful among small iPhones. The most popular building. The cheapest iPhone. There are rumors that at the beginning of 2018 Apple of the Year will release the second SE model and it will most likely become no less popular. But these are just rumors and nothing more... For now we have what we have.

  • Powerful filling.
  • Low price.
  • Convenient and compact body.
  • A huge number of spare parts. Broken display? Don't worry - the price of repairs won't hit your pocket too much.
  • Large selection of accessories.
  • Lack of features like Force Touch and moisture protection.
  • Small screen.
  • There is a lot of “scam” if you buy it “from hand”. The most common is the sale of iPhone 5S under the guise of SE ().

The ideal caller. Battery holds great, doesn't slow down, good camera, fits wonderfully in the hand. Should I buy it in 2017? If you don’t need a large display, buy it and don’t think about it. Of course, SE 2 may come out in 2018. But! Will it cost 18,000-20,000 rubles? Hardly.

iPhone 6S vs iPhone 7 vs iPhone 8 – what to buy in 2017-2018?

But here the choice is more difficult...

iPhone 6S

By technical specifications this is the same iPhone SE, only in a different case - the display diagonal is larger and the screen supports Force Touch. I guess I won’t write too much here - the iPhone 6S doesn’t have any special advantages to really strongly recommend it for purchase in 2017.

If it were sold at a price of 25,000 - 27,000 thousand, then we could think about buying it. And so... it’s better to pay attention to older models. Although, I will still highlight a few advantages:

  1. Earpiece speaker. Starting with the iPhone 7, Apple makes its models waterproof, which negatively affects the performance of the hearing speaker. As many have noted, the sound when talking on the phone on the iPhone 6S is much clearer than that of subsequent generations of iPhone.
  2. Camera. Yes, yes, yes, judging by the reviews iPhone camera 6S is almost the standard among the latest iPhone models. Since many people do not like the image processing algorithm in the iPhone 7 and 8 (they turn yellow, there is “soap” in the details).
  3. Good old 3.5mm headphone jack.

iPhone 7

In my opinion, this is currently the most balanced smartphone from Apple. And it will almost certainly remain so until the September 2018 presentation. Until some iPhone 8S comes out...

Here's why you should pay attention to the iPhone 7:

  • Moisture protection, Force Touch, quite powerful filling. Supports all iOS 11 features.
  • Large selection of colors (Product Red alone is worth it!).
  • The smartphone has been in production for a year now, all the “childish” sores and shortcomings have been eliminated.
  • Reasonable price.
  • Aluminum housing.

There is also a negative, but it only appears in comparison with the iPhone 8 and there are not so many of them - the only serious thing I can note is the lack of wireless and fast charging. If you are ready to charge your device the old fashioned way, then buying an iPhone 7 in 2017 (and in 2018 too) is the most reasonable decision.

iPhone 8

In fact, this is the same iPhone 7, to which wireless charging was added and for this the materials of the back cover had to be changed - now there is glass. And this is immediately a big minus - the figure eight can be dropped so that you will end up having to replace both glasses at once - front and rear.

And this is money. And considerable ones.

Here are a few more disadvantages:

  • Choice of body color. Yes, everything is very subjective. But in my opinion, “this is a fiasco” of Apple - where is there any diversity? Cream color? Are you serious? And in general, I want a blue iPhone! :)
  • Camera. Judging by the test images, an eerie yellowness appears in the photo in an artificial room. Yes, it was also in the iPhone 7, but clearly not as strong. Although, in fairness, it should be noted that photo processing algorithms can be improved with the release of new firmware.
  • This is an iPhone 7. Minimum new.
  • True Tone is one of the few innovations. Now adjusting screen colors and backlight intensity has become more intelligent.
  • Video in 4K resolution (60 frames) and 1080p (240 frames - slow motion).
  • Well, we already talked about charging - there is fast and wireless.

In my opinion, there are not enough advantages. Is all this worth the overpayment of 10,000 or more thousand rubles (compared to the iPhone 7)? Big question.

So, what about the iPhone Plus - which one should I get?

And with “large” iPhones everything is approximately the same as with small ones. Besides the fact that the iPhone 6S Plus is not worth considering for purchase at all. Still, the main feature of the iPhone with the Plus prefix of recent years is the dual camera (the iPhone 6S Plus has one module), which means we will choose between the “seven” and the “eight”.

How to choose the right one? That's right, look at what is written just above about small models - everything is repeated. There are no fundamental differences that allow us to definitely recommend only the iPhone 8 Plus (and not the iPhone 7 Plus) for purchase.

Do you want to pay for using the most powerful processor on the market (in real-life tasks the difference with the 7 Plus processor is negligible), wireless charging, True Tone? You can also buy 8 Plus. No? Let's take the 7 Plus and enjoy a good device.

Is it worth getting an iPhone X in 2017-2018?

Certainly, this smartphone stands apart among all iPhone models in 2017-2018 - there are too many innovations. The very best iPhone for the coming year. Maximum possibilities. Super device. Take it and rejoice!

But... I, for example, would not be in a hurry to buy it in 2017. And, at a minimum, I would wait until the beginning (or even the middle) of 2018. And here's why:

  1. iPhone X is a completely new experience for Apple. New case, new display, new technology Face ID. Most likely, there will still be some shortcomings in the first batches - let other users test the first “jambs”.
  2. Price. Apparently, at the start of phone sales there will be very few phones (like in the good old days). In conditions of shortage, the price tag will be inflated.

But when the excitement subsides, then you can take it - after all, we really miss truly revolutionary devices from Apple.

Conclusions

If you need a small smartphone, then we buy an iPhone SE - there are no options at all. At least until the second generation SE comes out. As soon as it is presented, I will definitely update the article and we will figure it out - is it worth buying in 2018?

As a replacement for my iPhone 5S for 2017-2018, I will choose the iPhone 7. Still, I want a slightly larger screen, and all sorts of features such as water resistance will not be superfluous. “Seven” is a device that has already been tested, costs reasonable money (), and without wireless iPhone charging 8 I will somehow live. And even if before September 2018 you suddenly really want an iPhone X, the “seven” can always be sold for a more or less normal price, pay extra and buy a “ten”.

These are the thoughts... what do you think? Which iPhone is better buy “here and now”? Share your opinion!

Updated! Dear friends, I am always happy to answer all questions about choosing a specific device in the comments - there is no need to duplicate questions by email and bombard it with letters. Thank you!

Updated 2! Very often, in addition to the question “Which iPhone to choose?”, the question “Where to buy it?” began to pop up. Yes, to make it cheaper!” I already wrote about this, but I’ll repeat it:

  • It is very difficult for me to recommend any store (even if I myself have bought there before), since I cannot be 100% sure of it. And I really wouldn’t want a purchase on my advice to be disappointing - this has already happened once (and, as it turned out later, not through the fault of the seller) and for generally ordinary advice I was mixed with dirt. Since then - no, no :)
  • But I’ll still tell you about one proven way to save money. How to do this? Get some money back from your purchase. Yes, you shouldn’t count on huge sums - but for a cover and (or) safety glass there's always enough. We register on the website, choose a store where the price is lower, and return cash more, we buy an iPhone (you can do more than just that - the choice of goods is huge) and... victory!

We bought the phone, some of the money was returned, beautiful!

P.S. If the information was useful, please like or click on the buttons social networks- do a good deed. We need to check whether they work at all or not?!

What will the iPhone SE 2 be like? They told me all the available details.

iPhone SE 2 is a long-awaited and truly desirable smartphone from Apple, which has not yet been announced. On October 3, 2019 it became known that iPhone SE 2 will still be released! The launch of the smartphone was confirmed by the most authoritative analyst from the Apple world, Ming-Chi Kuo. In this article, we have collected all the reliable information about the iPhone SE 2 - no unverified rumors, only leaks from the most trusted sources.

Note: We will update this topic with fresh, reliable leaks until the official release of the iPhone SE 2. Stay tuned!

iPhone SE 2 - will it come out or not?

Let's start with the main question that interests most fans of compact smartphones. Is Apple really developing the iPhone SE 2 and preparing to release it?

Over the past few years, there have been a ton of rumors about the iPhone SE 2. Various sources, now unheard of, predicted the release of the iPhone SE 2 at different times. But the smartphone still hasn’t come out.

However, on October 3, 2019, there was reliable confirmation of the imminent release of the iPhone SE 2. The most authoritative analyst from the Apple world, Ming-Chi Kuo, said that the iPhone SE 2 will be released in early 2020.

Design

According to Kuo, iPhone SE 2 will be similar to the 4.7-inch iPhone 8. The similarity will be great, since Apple will actually create new smartphone based on the components of the iPhone 8. This means that the iPhone SE 2 will receive a body with slightly rounded corners and edges.

The specialist did not specify whether the back surface will be glass (like the iPhone 8) or aluminum. Note that if the iPhone SE 2 has a glass body, the device will receive support for wireless charging.

The smartphone will be released in three colors: space gray, silver and red.

Display

iPhone SE 2 will not be as compact as its predecessor with a 4-inch screen. According to Ming-Chi Kuo, The smartphone will be equipped with a 4.7-inch LCD display with a resolution of 750×1334 pixels and an aspect ratio of 16:9. It is expected that it will be exactly the same display as the iPhone 8, with relatively wide bezels around the perimeter.

Characteristics

The performance of the iPhone SE 2 will be driven by a system based on the Apple A13 Bionic processor. This is the flagship chip that is used in smartphones iPhone 11 , iPhone 11 Pro And iPhone 11 Pro Max. Thus, the inexpensive iPhone SE will have the most powerful processor among mobile devices. This will allow him to freely run any applications, including games from Apple Arcade.

The real performance of the A13 Bionic processor is known. In “live” tests, the processor is ahead of all current chips from Qualcomm. The processor also has no equal in synthetic testing. In the Geekbench benchmark, the A13 Bionic chip scores 5472 points in single-core mode and 13769 points in multi-core mode. It is noteworthy that the yet unannounced flagship Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 processor has the worst performance.

A13 Bionic processor supported by the system machine learning Third generation Neural Engine. Thanks to this on iPhone SE 2 should become available night mode and a special Deep Fusion shooting mode exclusive to iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro and iPhone 11 Pro Max.

The smartphone will have 3 GB of RAM and 32 or 128 GB of storage, depending on the configuration.

Battery

Accurate capacity iPhone battery SE is not yet known. However, there are assumptions that should be close to reality. iPhone SE 2 will be similar in many ways to the iPhone 8, including the arrangement of components. This means that the smartphone will have a battery similar in capacity to the iPhone 8. It is expected that The battery capacity of the iPhone SE will be about 1821 mAh.

Touch ID or Face ID?

iPhone SE 2 will receive touch button“Home” with a second-generation Touch ID fingerprint scanner built into it. The smartphone will not have Face ID face scanning function.

iPhone SE 2 cameras

In his report, Ming-Chi Kuo did not specify what kind of cameras the new iPhone SE 2 will have. In this regard, regarding the cameras of the next budget Apple smartphone there are only guesses. They are based on information that the iPhone SE 2 will be very similar to the iPhone 8.

The new iPhone SE 2 will probably borrow from the iPhone 8 and its cameras. In this case, the main camera of the smartphone will be single with a resolution of 12 megapixels (f/1.8 aperture). Front camera The smartphone will have a resolution of 7 megapixels (f/2.2 aperture).

iPhone SE 2 price

According to available data, the iPhone SE 2 will receive a price similar to the original iPhone SE - $399 for basic version with 32 GB of memory and $499 for a model with 128 GB of memory. IN Russia iPhone SE 2 will be priced at RUB 35,990. and 44,990 rub. respectively. October 14 iPhone SE 2 price confirmed analyst Ming-Chi Kuo.

  • The price of iPhone SE 2 is from 35,990 rubles.

Should we wait for the release of iPhone SE 2?

After rumors about the iPhone SE 2 began to appear more and more often, many fans of Apple technology faced another important question. WITH Should I wait for the iPhone SE 2 to come out and not buy other iPhone models for now? However, even more often we get this modification of the question - “Is it worth buying an iPhone SE or is it better to wait for the iPhone SE 2?”

It is important to understand that initially iPhone SE 2 will definitely not be budget, remember this. At first, the new iPhone SE 2 will be sold at a price of more than 35 thousand rubles. The price of a smartphone will drop to a more pleasant 20-25 thousand rubles only a year after the start of sales.

When will iPhone SE 2 be released?

Let us draw a conclusion from all of the above. iPhone SE 2 will be presented at Apple's March 2020 presentation.
