Is it stupid to downgrade from an iPhone 7 to an iPhone SE?

re:

Trinidad & Tobago, where an unlocked 64GB SE can work out to be 670USD.... 7+128GB 1500USD

My brother recently switched from iPhone 6S to the iPhone SE.

Glad it's working out for you this time around (third time I think?)

I was considering hiding from this post as I am a little embarrassed. I enjoyed the SE for a few days and then started missing that screen real estate and the amazing camera and changed back. I don't really have an reasonable answer. The SE did everything that I needed it to, but doing the same thing on the bigger screen was just easier.

I am going to keep the SE and not sell it, so when I have the urge to change again, it will not cost me any money.. LOL

Seems like a good idea, I've kept my 7 as well for when I need portability

Hello,

I like the Iphone 7 but sometimes it´s easy to grab with one hand,and I love the SE...my iphone has already 3 dents...

If I trade i will be stupid to downgrade ? or not?

Will the SE receive the IOS 11? 12?

So you have small hands.

Will you be stupid to downgrade or not? Ask your parents.

Watching so many videos about the SE and how great it is and when you pair it with the Apple Watch and maybe an IPad you have everything.. It makes perfect sense

Hmm, thats a tough one. My initial response would be NO it's not 'stupid' to 'downgrade' to the iPhone SE
At the end of the day it all depends on what you like most. Personally for me, i love a smaller phone so that I'm able to reach anywhere on the screen with one hand. The iPhone SE has amazing battery life and the gaming performance is excellent. But some people really love the 5.5" inch iPhone because it gives them a lot of screen realist to indulge in their favourite content.

Ill be interested to know what your decision is

I don't think it's stupid but I couldn't go back to a 4" screen now. Consuming content on my iPhone 5 was nowhere near as enjoyable as it is on my 7.

Not at all stupid. The SE is a great device.

The camera on the SE is highly underrated

Totally agree. I get great pics on my SE!

The saga continues.. back on the SE and decided to give the camera a huge try. I used it for a few sunsets and sunrises, the quick snap a picture of the kids, take a picture of the meal that I am about to eat etc... The camera is awesome. The 7+ can sit next to my bed for watching videos and playing games and the SE can be my travel companion

My friend at work did this. We sold his iPhone 7 and he got an iPhone SE off Swappa. He is very happy.

I think you need a tablet to really see graphics and newspapers (papers?) and I do not believe the difference between a 4" and a 5.5" screen is wide enough to warrant the expense. A nature photo which looks good on an SE will appear about the same on my 7 and truly majestic on my iPad Air 2 and our iMac. So I don't go for the monumental in my pocket (not to get into the politics of the day) but like a gadget which is quick and resourceful, also reliable.

Your experience may vary.

I love small phones but I find them difficult to type on.

Keyboard size will be my only concern moving from a Samsung S6 to an iPhone 5S..... time will tell..

Upgrade in November though!
