Would You purchase a 4-inch iPhone SE?

[robertk328]

I still think it was a big miss. They could have borrowed some designs from both phones instead of just repackaging a design that they've had forever.

Is that just your opinion or would you have bought one if that was the case? Are you not buying one because they didn't change the external design?

What phone do you use now? No Touch ID?
I would guess the $450 model is 16 gb.

16 GB for $399 and 64 Gb for $499

Re: Would You purchase A 4 inch Screen iPhone 5se?

yeah, i'll update my 5s to se soon~

although i had expected new design for 4 inch iPhone, but with A9 chip and other better specs, it's ok for me to update!

I'm actually a lot more interested in the SE than I thought I would be. I really like the form-factor of my 5C and for the price it is a tempting upgrade.

My pocket wants me to buy one but my eyes don't, can't wait to check it out in store soon. The idea of such a good camera in such a small package, also I'll hold out for reviews of the battery life.

Is there 100% confirmation of 1GB of RAM ?

I REALLY liked the form factor on the 5S. Even though I've gotten used to the size of the 6 and 6S, I still wouldn't mind the form factor of the 5S again as it was so easy to one-hand. That said, it's the little things that have me hooked on the 6S now... believe it or not, the apps I use that have taken advantage of 3D touch have me hooked. For example, I can deactivate/reactivate my home security cameras like that (*snaps fingers*) thanks to 3D touch. Those little things have me hooked, even if it is a gimmick the other 80% of the time.

And I don't think it's 100% guaranteed, but by the lack of info out there, I'd put my money on it being about 99% that the SE has 1gb of RAM instead of 2gb.

I wouldn't buy one because I love my 6s plus but it's a nice option for those who like the smaller phones.

I am really interested with iOS. I just stay with Android because of the specs. But instead of buying 5s, I would buy an SE to know if its really worth switching to iPhone.

probably not! Today I got an iphone 6s plus and I'm completely comfortable with it. My hands are big and my fingers too! Ahahah So it fits very well. I don't intend to change to a smaller model

If I buy the iPhone SE it would be more for the beauty than the need! It is a extremely gorgeous phone!!! I would bet my money on the design.

Nope. That is currently 100% speculation.

 

[IgorKat]

Yes, I would. It would be great for my cycling tours...

Nothing official. Probably 1 gb. We won't know for certain until iFixit tears it down. Regardless of RAM, the SE will be a great phone. Better than the 5s ever was. And that's saying a lot.

iPhone SE appears on AnTuTu with 2 GB of RAM - SlashGear

i know this isn't exactly confirmation, but it's something until we have more info.

If it would have 2GB of RAM then I would definitely upgrade from my iPhone 5s > iPhone SE. I do think that the European prices are a bit high e.g. in the Netherlands: 489 euro for 16GB version and 589 euro for the 64GB version (source Apple.com/nl).

I would buy an iPhone SE over the 6 or 6s. Personally I have a small hand and would prefer a 4 inch phone. Moreover, Apple upgraded the interior making it as powerful as the 6s. I'll still take this as a good buy, although there is no 3D-touch.

Still if you have a big hand. Definitely a 4.7 inch or 5.5 phone size would be best.

One point that I haven't seen made yet is that it still has the same screen from the 5s ( no Retina HD ). That's kind of a bummer IMO. I loved the small form factor but there's no way I could go back after having a 6 and 6s Plus Retina HD screen.

The retina display of the SE should be fine.

These are some differences between 6S and SE.

- No 3D Touch
- No Taptic Engine (it uses a normal vibrator motor)
- Older generation display (lower contrast ratio)
- No Dual-domain pixels display (viewing angles not as good)
- No Cat 6 LTE
- No MIMO support for Wifi
- No barometer
- Not using the 2nd gen Touch ID
- Front camera 1.2MP

But to be fair easier to compare it to the iphone 6 since the price is nearer. when you do that, all the SE is lacking would be the ones in red. The SE even wins out in terms of camera capability and performance with the newer camera and processor. So not bad at all to me.
