Beyond praise! The product definitely deserves your attention.

In general, a utilitarian smartphone. It suits me, because I have a 13.3-inch laptop for media, I do purely necessary things from my phone (mail, whatsapp, camera, Apple Pay payment, calls, team viewer). As the only gadget is not recommended. To be honest, I was shocked precisely by the quality of the video in 4k / 60 - I threw it off to a friend on the MBP16 and the quality is simply the highest class. Stabilization works without flaws - the video from the wagon turned out to be smooth…

Pros
  • 1) Performance. Nimble at work, especially apple pay. 2) Weight - light and compact for EDC. 3) The case is of high quality to the touch. 4) Camera - video stabilization and detail in 4k / 60 are impressive. 5) Price. The cheapest iPhone from the latest line. 6) Gorgeous look in a branded case from iPhone 7.
Cons
  • 1) Lags in ios 13.5. It manifests itself as a dump of access to the camera from the lock screen, sometimes all sorts of curtains are not pulled out until the restart. It also happens that the game freezes - it’s not clear here if it’s a jamb of ios or applications. All these quirks are cured by a restart - such an occupation. 2) The battery here is very interesting. The discharge rate is not linear. For example, video calls in WhatsApp will land from 100 to 0 in 3 - 3.5 hours at about maximum brightness. At the same time, yesterday, for an hour of non-stop use (45m of play + 15 browsing), I "ate" 12%, which is equal to 8 hours of work. On average, I charge every 2 days, as I use a laptop for the most part. You can squeeze a maximum of 10 hours out of it and a minimum of 3 hours. As I noticed, the more systems are involved, the less lives. For example, gps, LTE, camera and brightness are much faster than wi-fi + browser. In this regard, redmi note 4 kept the charge predictably, there the screen time varied by only 2-3 hours (7-10 hours of screen). 3) In the case it is already inconvenient to hold as without it. 4) The screen glares in the sun if it is on the side. 5) 64GB is not enough - 1 minute of video weighs 400MB.

Good product, I recommend that you try it.

Results: This is a unique device of its kind, aimed at its audience. Those who say “Where is the innovation?” do not understand the ideology of the SE (Special Edition) series at all. The iPhone 12 will have a new design, this is the “good old” 8 with top-end hardware (slightly reduced at the level of statistical error by the Apple A13 Bionic processor), hence the duration of support, the quality of photo / video processing and improved autonomy (despite the identical capacity with iPhone 8)…

Pros
  • Hello! After more than a month of use, I completely rewrite my review. I hope my short operating experience (I am picky about wearable electronics) will help you when choosing a product. I'll highlight the pros: • Ergonomics: compact, lightweight, fits perfectly in the hand without interception; • Autonomy: I write this as a plus, because it holds a charge for about 5-6 hours of active screen, which is simply amazing for 1.821 mAh (social networks, music, YouTube, browning, I practically never let go of it, without gaming sessions); • Charging speed (with an iPad adapter): if you have such a power supply in your household (if not, it's not expensive) - it will be just a breath of fresh air for you, I haven't used the standard 5V 1A for many years. I charge either with an iPad adapter or from a MacBook (but then you have to buy a cable as well, or if you have AirPods Pro, such a cable is already included), this doesn’t seem to affect the battery wear much; • Dust-moisture protection according to the IP67 standard; • Wireless charging (although I don't use it, it's definitely not a minus); • Video shooting HDR 4K 60FPS; • Photo quality (examples attached): portrait mode is available on both the main and front cameras with all color filters and effects; • Unsurpassed vibration feedback; • iOS: stable system, long support (I like Android very much, especially on Google Pixel, but iOS is closer and more convenient); • Abundance of accessories: you can buy them anywhere and in any quantity (it's more difficult with Android, but it has nothing to do with it);
Cons
  • Now about the cons (after the time of operation, there are very few of them left); - Lack of night photo mode; - Price at the start of sales in the 2022 (now there are various promotions and discounts, on the same TMall it recently cost 35.000 official with a guarantee in the 2022, well, or there is an option to buy a European version without a guarantee in the 2022 for those who want to save money)

I switched from Xiaomi, at the beginning there was a breakdown, then I got used to it and noted for myself the thoughtfulness and convenience of this gadget. The screen size is optimal for one-handed operation. Quality photos. Yes, there are some limitations, but for me personally, the main advantage was stability in work. - I am ating the review after a year of use (September 2022). Not an ounce of disappointment in the purchase. The inflated price was forgotten, the strengths are appreciated:

Pros
  • It works and doesn't crash. The camera captures very well during the day. More details - in the "Comments".
Cons
  • The battery could be more powerful. A lot of strange restrictions. You can’t use your phone as a USB flash drive (well, that’s okay, I knew about it), you can’t transfer data via bluetooth - I was extremely surprised by this, I don’t understand which Apple prevented this function. The alarm clock does not have a rise in volume. There is no way to force the flash to turn on when taking a photo in the regular "Camera" program. The camera shoots well in the evening (see photo examples), but there is no night mode and manual settings that the past Chinese had.

Reliable purchase, guaranteed to be a good one.

The device was purchased to replace the SE 2022, which has been in operation since the end of summer 2022. At that time, I chose a device with 32GB of memory, which was enough for me then. But several OS ates have passed, the amount of data in some applications has grown, and now we have a smart, convenient phone with a residual battery capacity of 85% and a clogged memory. Unnecessary applications are removed, the photo is instantly merged onto the computer. In general, everything is spartan…

Pros
  • Dimensions. Fast and stable work.
Cons
  • Price. Slippery and thin body. Edge sizes.

I really like the product, it fully meets my expectations.

As stated on the Apple website - iPhone SE2 is designed to be your ideal smartphone. I think that they are completely right, all the disadvantages that there are, in fact, are not, and I refuted them in the disadvantages section. I see a lot of comparisons with XR everywhere: XR is no better than iron, and in some ways even worse, the difference is 7-8k. - except for the design, a large screen with the same FaceID, but this extra charge is for taste and a new design. This is not in fact the +…

Pros
  • Compactness is its main advantage, this device was created for these people. The screen is good, all applications fly. You can also connect e-sim, which I have already done, this is tele2. Beautiful portrait photos as in XR, no difference at all, somewhere even better, the quality and processing is affected by the processor - thanks to A13. Now it shoots video with stereo sound, it’s nice to upload it on Instagram, there is a quick take and video quality settings are now configured in the camera itself, you no longer need to go to Settings every time and change the quality. Applications do not download almost, 3GB of RAM is big + On the 8-ke sorties infuriated not infrequently. As for games: on my iphone8, call of duty:mobile sometimes slowed down and sagged on ultra, here it works perfectly, it’s quite convenient to play, I don’t know what everyone finds fault with. I'm not a fan of small screens, I was terribly uncomfortable with 4S and with SE1, it was really hard, I wanted a bigger screen, but I don’t like huge shovels, it’s very inconvenient, I appreciate Compactness and convenience, 4’7 inches is the minimum that should be in a modern smartphone. We can say that iPhoneSE2 is the best compact smartphone in the 21st century. This is the Salvation in the world of huge semi-tablets.
Cons
  • There are NO cons to this phone. That's serious. AKb 🔋 - weak only on paper, watch a YouTube video on how to set up ios13 correctly, you will be surprised how many extra functions your battery eats in the background, the smartphone holds 9-10 hours of screen time via wi-fi network, I'm serious (If you don't play in heavy games) do not listen to bloggers in this regard, SE2 works 1.5-2 hours longer than iphone8 and keeps like a regular android at 3000 mah. Optimization and Apple magic are on top. — Are frames a disadvantage? They protect the screen from falling on the edge of the screen, for example. someone doesn’t like a unibrow, or a convex frontal on top of xiaomi, and here a beautiful even screen without bulges, nothing interferes with viewing, this for many + framelessness is the pursuit of fashion, show-off and, more simply, taste. Guys, this is a smartphone, not clothes. — In iphoneSE2 camera from iphone8? I’ll tell you a secret, so by the way, on the iPhone 7 and on one of the 2 iPhone11 cameras, the same main camera (One 12 MP wide-angle camera with aperture ƒ / 1.8-Check my words, go to the site.) but they shoot far NOT the same, a lot depends on the processor, and 2 cameras and a screen. There is no night mode, it's a shame, I put 4/5⭐️ — Downside for similarity with iphone8? Something I don’t see that someone hated SE1 for being similar to 5S. People you do not understand the meaning of the name: SE is a special edition. This is not something new, new will be in September, and SE2 is a beloved classic design with modern hardware, The fans wanted an ated 5S with the latest hardware and 6S chips, they got it. The fans wanted an ated iphone8 with the latest hardware and Iphone10/11 chips - people got it. (GBT-LTE,E-sim,wi-fi6,stereo sound in video,quick-take,Ex-cards with backup power,New Smart-HDR,portrait photos on the front camera and rear cameras with 6 modes,3GB RAM,A13-bionic and the possibility of ates for 5-6 years ahead. It's all there✅ iPhone SE2 is almost Iphone10R/11 in iphone8 case. -High price? Guys, it's worth the money, any iphone is overpriced.

A valuable purchase, some advantages!

I have always been a fan and user of android - it is so flexible, it is pirated or simply software is not available on Yos. I broke screens on androids several times and could not repair or replace the screen, although I myself worked for a couple of years in the service and change screens. Stupidly nowhere is there a screen with quality, reliable - it will work for a month and goes into ripples. Replacing the battery after 2 years of use will also fail - they do not produce more. So I came to…

Pros
  • COMPACT, REPAIRABLE, Elaborate - I take an old big phone in my hands and understand what a torment it was to walk with a shovel.
Cons
  • The battery would be bigger. Someone there complains about the camera - but I don't care a little. Someone out there lacks 64GB. The main disadvantage of iPhones / iPads is THREE TIMES CURSED TUNA, which can't actually do ANYTHING - upload music from one computer, upload photos from your other computer photo - HE DELETES EVERYTHING. At the same time, I could delete music from the phone, but photos are not deleted! TUNA MUST BE BURIED! The problem was solved by the iMazing program - this is a Tuna of a healthy person - transferring files in both directions and painlessly adding music and photos from your archive.

In general, the phenomenal situation is with this smartphone. I have never seen so many reviews written by people who, it seems, have not even seen a smartphone live, and even more so have not used it. The desire to rot even a niche, but a good product is simply amazing. Everyone is outraged by the 1800 mAh battery. Fact: I have an iPhone 6 Plus, which has a new battery, for a second, 2915 mAh (almost twice as much), with the same use, 6 Plus lives a maximum of 1.5 days, while I understand that

Pros
  • - Appearance: the classic form factor of a smartphone from Apple, easy to distinguish from other smartphones of the corporation (the logo is in the center of the back panel, unlike the iPhone 8); color options are also classic - white (with a black front panel - in the style of white iPhone 3G / 3GS, I recommend taking this particular color), black (I don’t recommend taking it - it’s actually gray, it gets dirty easily and all defects will be clearly visible) and red (for an amateur, that's the color I took). -Ease of use: the buttons are conveniently located, all controls are easy to reach, in the hand lies perfectly. Light enough, but not so light that it slips out of a pocket in a taxi unnoticed (as was the case with the 5S, SE 1st generation). -Workmanship: At the height - glass, the gaps are minimal, there are no squeaks, everything is smooth, the oleophobic coating is resistant, the finger slides easily). -Memory size: an excellent solution to make the minimum version 64GB - I have enough without problems, half more is free, other volume options are for those who do not monitor their workspace. -Performance: games run any, without brakes, at a stable 30/60 FPS (depending on games), applications also do not slow down, RAM 3GB - holds about 12 applications in memory for multitasking. -OS: iOS 13.4 out of the box - found no bugs, the system works quickly, smoothly, and everything is organized clearly. -Battery: in mixed mode of use (used about 30, put down, used again, etc.) lasts about 2 days (maximum - 2.5 days) at 100%. Gives about 6-7 hours of active screen operation (see attached pictures). -Camera: second best video stabilization on the market (behind iPhone 11/11 Pro), shots in good light are also detailed; and with only one camera module - there are "bokeh" effects (they work decently, but a little worse than with a telephoto module) -Screen: no bangs, no holes - a flat screen. You can't see pixels at a normal working distance, a picture with optimal color reproduction. - Water protection: IP67 is.
Cons
  • -Camera: No night mode, but given how unnatural nighttime shots are on smartphones that do have one, it's not a big loss. -Price: I took it at the start for 39,900. - a little expensive, if it's over 33900 - perfect.

I am not disappointed, the quality is satisfying.

The device is in a familiar case with an ated filling. It is incorrect to directly compare the hardware parameters of devices on iOS and Android - different processor architectures, different approaches to the interaction between hardware and software shell give different final results in terms of performance for the end user. For iOS devices, the listed technical indicators of the iPhone SE 2022 are very worthy. What I CANNOT attribute to shortcomings, although I often met them in other…

Pros
  • 1. A fresh six-core A13 Bionic processor (albeit slightly strangled for the sake of improving energy saving), 3 GB of LPDDR4X RAM with a frequency of 3200 MHz iPhone 8 was A11 CPU and 2GB LPDDR4X 1600MHz memory) 2. Dimensions. The width is the limit for comfortable use with one hand. In the era of spadephones, at least some moderation in size becomes a virtue in itself. By the way, it was precisely because of the dimensions that the option to buy the iPhone XR was discarded. 3. The usual Touch ID. 4. Supports fast charging. I charge from the mains adapter 10W A1357 iPad. Charges faster. Not directly “wow”, but noticeably faster. 5. Ability to activate e-sim 6. Compared to the first generation iPhone SE - a louder conversational and ringing speaker (maybe this is important to someone)
Cons
  • 1. Rounded body edges. A design that makes the device slip out of your hands. Get used to rectangular edges. Before that, there was the first generation iPhone SE, and even earlier smart on android also with rectangular edges. I'm very used to it, it's comfortable, nothing crashes into the palm, but they don't strive to slip out. The iPhone SE 2022 made up for this shortcoming with a selection of cases with rectangular edges. 2. 2.5D screen glass is tactilely very pleasant, but makes it impossible to fit the protective glass normally. I use it without glass. 3. Weak oleophobic screen coating.

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…

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)

No minuses as such, comfortable to use.

The smartphone is very specific. The price / quality ratio is clearly not about this smartphone, as well as not about all iPhones, in fact. I don’t understand people who buy a phone, and then scold it for its limits - did they buy a pig in a poke? The camera for such money, of course, lags behind competitors. Below are examples of photos (Blossoming bird cherry, periwinkle, rainbow). Unfortunately, there is no photo with a small amount of light. I like its design, size, speed. I can’t give him…

I did not regret the purchase, everything is fine.

Everything is fine! 4 out of 5. Perfect for my purposes, price / quality, which is called cheap and cheerful, if we talk about the prices of modern smartphones, again, SE (2022) bought exactly 3 years ago on 01202222, and then it cost me about 17-19 thousand, although the device is similar given the past and current hierarchy of smartphones.

Pros
  • - the price (with a market discount for a version for other countries, a full set and 128GB of memory) came out just over 41 thousand, and with a cashback of 10% from my bank of the same name, about 37 thousand; - a complete set (EarPods Lightning headphones, cable and a block with an adapter for 2022 sockets); - the small size of the smartphone relative to the trendy 11,12,13, it was important for me, because I switched after the iPhone SE (2022), and before it 5S and 4S. - camera of excellent quality; - speed, processor; - large display; - the last current iPhone with a “button”, although it is touch-sensitive, for me this is important for speed in switching applications, since the elaboration of gestures is still at a low level, + Touch ID is more convenient for objectively milking Apple Pay.
Cons
  • - the smartphone I ordered was 1 year 9 months old at the time of receipt; - came fully discharged; - the battery is not the strongest point, although again, what to compare with, if, like I had a transition from SE (2022), then the difference is for the better; - in the kit for other countries I got a block with a plug for the USA, but the plus is that the seller put an adapter for it in the kit for free.

High-quality product, the price corresponds to the quality.

It's just cute, I switched to it from Samsung c10e, since the last ate of Samsung ended the phone. The requirements for the new device were as follows: convenient, reliable, well, the appearance also matters. Among androids, there are no such models, only shovels or low-power Chinese models without NFS and other joys. You don't want to let go of this phone, it's such a cutie. 12 mini did not suit the lack of a wheelbarrow and the price. All the same, the button in the iPhone is a work of art…

Pros
  • Size, operating system, touch ID, the whole phone is a solid dignity

I'm impressed! Exactly the product deserves your attention.

My last iPhone se is already 4 years old, so I decided it was time to replace it, although it works amazingly now :) I choose the iPhone precisely for this confidence that in a year or two it will not be stupid, will not lag, and nothing will happen to it during this time, as I had before with androids. But I have nothing against them, to each his own, do not throw slippers! Design for me is a huge plus, it was because of him that I took the se 2022, and not the XR. If you have a se 2022, 6…

Pros
  • • Camera - both amazing • Screen - just happiness for fingers • Charging holds a day and a half, but it's only for now, we all know what will happen next, but I was ready for this. • Very, very fast, a huge difference from the past se. • Beautiful, insanely comfortable in the hand.
Cons
  • It would be better if we didn’t put the adapter and headphones, but put the cable for fast charging.

Well done, but I wont buy any more.

Of course, after the half-dead SE of the first generation, it's a paradise, but don't count on much. This is a great working device for surfing, calls and music. If you need non-stop YouTube, games or social networks - you will live with a power bank in an embrace and charge wherever there are outlets - at home, in the car, at work .

Pros
  • The cheapest phone to enter the ecosystem fresh percent Neural networks long support IP67 Wireless charger good old button Form factor In recent times, it can also be called a virtue that phones with ip67 can be safely wiped with an antiseptic and not be afraid to spill something on them. But you need to remember that any moisture inside the phone is not a warranty case right away, this is Apple's policy.

The purchase brought only positive emotions.

I took this phone as a second for work. A very successful model! Everything is perfectly balanced in it, it is also suitable for those who do not want a big phone, but do not want to overpay for 12 mini. I have been using the phone since the winter of 2022 and I am completely satisfied with it. By the way, I recommend everyone to use only original covers, if you do not need some kind of super-protection from fools and children. The silicone cases of the new series are better than they were in…

Watching so many complaints, I’ll say that 64 GB is beyond my eyes! I will not take the battery either as a plus or a minus! The device is not for daily hanging in it and games, although it pulls everything without straining! Regarding user complaints about the battery, I can only say that all iPhones are equipped with batteries that are smaller than they could actually pull out! Here are the jokes of the APPLE company itself! This phone is an external copy of 8 ki, so demanding autonomy from…

Pros
  • Powerful and compact! Everything flies! The old design also does not repel) Ease of control with one hand! Flawless operation and communication with wireless devices via bluetooth! Even any Chinese gadget and headphones will recognize with a bang! Well-developed software, albeit closed and limited compared to android!
Cons
  • Basically, this is the price, and especially in 2022! The course does its job ((But you can buy a European! I did it and didn’t regret it! Less guarantee and no 2022 plug! But this is generally nonsense) A camera without night mode, in fact a little more advanced than 8 ki! Maybe someone will not be satisfied with the diagonal of the screen and the frame! This is purely for everyone!

In general, its pretty good, an equal number of pros and cons.

When I bought SE, I thought that I was buying a powerful phone that would last at least three years, for this I bought an additional warranty just for this period. But the phone was not enough even for half a day! This is the maximum it can withstand without additional recharging. Whatever you are told about the correct setting, or disabling all "unnecessary" iPhone functions, there are no unnecessary functions in the iPhone. Yes, and turning off personally did not extend the phone’s operating…

The best purchase in my life, I will definitely buy it again.

Switched to it from Google Pixel. The choice was made due to size. Didn't want a shovel with a huge screen. I wanted a device where I could easily do everything with one hand. As a result, after many years on Android from Google, I decided to try out iOS. Everyone is happy. The system is pleasant, the phone is smart, there are many pleasant moments, after which you understand that the nickname "robot" suits Android very well)

Pros
  • Compact, easy to use with one hand, nimble and performance will last for years to come.
Cons
  • Camera - maybe I didn’t set something up, but Google Pixel takes better pictures in my opinion. Maybe something needs to be set up here, but on Googlephone everything was done by automation and I'm used to it)

Keep in mind I came with 0% charge. Therefore, it will not be possible to immediately see the pixels. You need to charge first!

Pros
  • Great device for your money! I ordered it in the "old configuration" with a charger and a DATA cable. Brought quickly. I opened the box after payment right in front of the courier. Everything is great - I recommend. The case is a little larger than I previously took 4 years ago.
Cons
  • Have not found. Everything works.
