No one is talking about this HUGE SE advantage...

Remember the big stink when Apple moved the on/off/sleep button to the right spine with the 6/6Plus??? The SE maintains that button on the top right with the SE. I don't know about you, but this couldn't make me happier. So glad they kept it on the top!

Im excited about the possibility of greatly improved battery life .............. we'll see in due course I suppose............

Yes, the lock button on top was/is huge for me!

The kids also like it so they don't accidentally lock it when in landscape mode.

Yesssss. Somebody said it.

It definitely makes sense to have it on top on a smaller device. I'm sure Apple would have kept it where it was but you'd need 2 hands to lock an iPhone 6 Plus and they obviously want consistency between the 6 and 6+. It's still not enough to make me buy one though!

The iPhone SE is best phone due to the old design before the 6 came out and a affordable pricing.

 

[Lefty724]

Yes! Love the form factor of the SE!

I had a 6 and 6 plus, but they just didn't feel right?

This is awesome.

I think it's great that Apple decided to leave iPhone SE sleep/wake button on top just like the iPhone 5s; familiar and consistent.

...and I love the squared off sides. I don't care for the curved edges of the 6/6s 6+/6s+

However, the screen is way too small for me --- I think.

 

[Bachato]

that is a more natural location for it. I prefer it on top right as well.

 

[TripleOne]

I do miss it!

The iPhone 5/5s design is just a classic.

Same here, that's one reason why I ordered the SE in all honesty.

 

[mbranscum]

Wasn't the reason for moving the button to the side to make it more accessible since the phones were larger?

 

[la551t3r]

Indeed. It wouldn't make sense to have the lock button on the top edge of the larger iPhones. On my 6s, it is in the perfect position when holding my phone in my right hand, without having to adjust grip.

I'm loving the improved battery and honestly I'm getting sick of the cumbersome nature of the large phones and I have big hands.

True man, I hate it how all the latest phones are gigantic phablets. I just want a small powerful phone with good battery life, whatsapp, a decent camera, Facebook, and that's it.
