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

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I expected mediocre quality, but it was a pleasant surprise.

In general, I would not recommend the new se in modern realities for everyone, now I will explain why. Now phones have practically supplanted the tablet market, and, accordingly, they have taken over their functions to play games, watch YouTube, etc. Accordingly, such tasks require at least a larger screen and a battery. The new se no longer fits these parameters. For me, the phone is primarily needed for calls, answering messengers, some social networks, listening to music, I don’t play games on the phone, I don’t watch movies and YouTube, I have an iPad or a computer for this, because I think that even having a phone with a huge shovel is still not convenient, in general, the opinion may differ. Therefore, we can make an obvious conclusion, if you consume content, play games and all this is from your phone, then perhaps you should take Xr, the difference in price is minimal, but taking a new se you will be very sorry, since it is NOT FOR THESE TASKS in the first place turn. Well, if you are looking for compactness, ease of use, you use your phone primarily as a phone and for a messenger, but at the same time you don’t want a creation that lags android, then the new se is for you. This is an iPhone and it is very good at the same time, but it is far from being for everyone. As for the price, it’s expensive, like any iPhone, but it’s the cheapest of them, so shouting loudly that fools sell apple for so much it’s not entirely correct if you know how to analyze at least a little bit. Yes, for this money you can take some kind of android a hundred times better, or even 3 xiaomi redmi note 8 pro at once, for example, which will be in many ways better than this device and most of the current iPhone line, but some people, due to circumstances, need an apple, I'm not talking about those stupid individuals who believe that buying the last iPhone every year and putting it on display for everyone is a reflection of their wealth. The iPhone has long lost such a position in our country, this is even ridiculous. But if you are purposeful in your choice, then you will not regret it.

Pros
  • - The size of the phone is what you need, not too much and not too little. There were almost all iPhones, except maybe 11 and 11 pro. At one time, I sat at 8 for a very long time, I had to change due to circumstances, I took Xs max, my eyes hurt because it turned out I couldn’t get used to oled, I changed it to Xr, I used it for almost a year during all this time, a huge shovel delivered perhaps more negative than positive emotions (I'm not saying that this is a bad phone, it's just for me personally), and then a new se comes out, I merge Xr and take it away. It's just a thrill to return to the normal size of the phone, and to the button, gestures, framelessness is all cool, but the old design and its convenience for me are beyond competition now for sure, it's a pity that the era of compact phones is almost gone. - Work speed - The camera copes well with 95% of the tasks of ordinary users. It is on a par with Xr, this is my personal impression of an inexperienced photographer for people who pick a bunch of settings there, etc., of course, it will be the other way around. It just takes good pictures, that's all.
Cons
  • -Sound from external speakers, it's a pity that they didn't stuff something similar into it like its last frameless counterparts. But this is rather due to its design and compactness. In Xs and Xr, the sound from the speakers is much nicer than in the new se. The sound, of course, is normal here too, but not as elaborate as there, in all other models it sounds more pleasant or something and louder. -Yes, I would like a bigger battery, but I confidently have enough for 1.5 days. Again, in compactness, you have to sacrifice something.
