Review on Apple iPhone SE 2020 128GB Smartphone, (PRODUCT)RED, Slimbox by Kristine Tay ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The ratio of price and quality is very pleasing, I will repeat the purchase.

Until recently, there was a first-generation SE, it suited everyone, but the screen size was not enough. I thought for a long time whether to take the new SE 2022, I was confused by three things: the screen resolution was not even full hd and wide frames at the top and bottom, low battery capacity, not the best camera. In the end, I still took it and did not regret it even once! The screen is very good, the lack of resolution is not felt, the density of dots per inch is sufficient for such a diagonal. The difference of this IPS matrix, if there is one compared to the OLED in the XS, is in the nuances and there is more likely to be affected by a higher resolution on a larger diagonal, and you almost don’t feel the difference in color reproduction and brightness in everyday use. I really like how the smartphone looks, lies in the hand and the quality of the materials, I really want to pick it up again and this is a strong plus compared to the old SE! The presence of a top-end processor and the positioning of this model allows us to hope for long-term support from the manufacturer. This smartphone does not exactly feel cheap, rather, on the contrary, it feels like the same XS. The camera traditionally shoots well during the day and poorly in the evening. In general, the expectations were fully justified, for those who still doubt or are afraid of shortcomings, I advise you to just hold it in your hands and evaluate the display live, and then make the final choice. Or, as an option, take a used one a year later for half the price, but in good condition ;-)

Pros
  • + dimensions, fits comfortably in the hand, quality of materials and case + high-quality display, screen size, convenient to operate with one hand + presence of touch id, modern processor, performance
Cons
  • - wide frames at the top and bottom (on the one hand, I would like a larger screen, but in general they do not spoil the impression of the appearance, while you can reach the finger of one hand from edge to edge without intercepting it with your hand) - low battery capacity - the camera does not shoot well in low light and at night - overpriced (but this can be attributed to the peculiarities of the 2022 market)

Different pros: Nimble, great size, great price (among iPhones). Some cons: The lens clicks when the camera is turned on. Slippery without a cover, because all glass.

With its pros. Red color. Size. Convenient. Screen. There is everything you need. Fast. Cons below: The battery is just so-so, very so-so

Different pros: Screen, comfortable in the hand, medium size. Worthy competitor 10 and 11. Its cons: The battery lasts a maximum of a day, with active use. I think this is true for all models.

With its pros. Compactness, speed of work. Has some cons Too delicate screen (it was necessary to immediately paste the glass). Working hours leave much to be desired.
