iPhone se 2
Might finally be time to upgrade my 6s
Same external size ( near enough )
Oled screen
Current iPhone 11 A13 chip
More ram
Bigger battery
7mp camera
4K video
Still has fingerprint reader
Sensible price, £569 for the biggest 256gb version plus 0% finance for 24 months if you want it ( on everything at Apple at the moment as far as I can see )

Re: iPhone se 2
The screen isn’t OLED, is it? It’s not on the 11 and wasn’t ok the 8, which the SE basically is with new innards.
It does have a 12Mpixel camera though; the front-facing one is 7Mpixel.
Looking at the US pricing it would be worth buying over there if you can. $399 starting price is about £100 off the UK price

Re: iPhone se 2
No, only the Pros have OLED screens, but the current LCD iPhone screens are pretty darn good - there was a blind test when the XR came out and the majority of nerds couldn’t tell the difference between it and then OLED one.
The new phone is a bargain by all accounts and will be supported for years.

Re: iPhone se 2
It just shows how overpriced the current models are, just a shame they won’t release it in plus size as Apple know that almost no one will then buy their Pro phones.
How about not having a sig at all?
Re: iPhone se 2
There’s a rumour there will be a plus-sized SE2 coming, maybe announced next week.
I don’t think they’ll have any trouble shifting enough of the latest iPhones, if only because of the better cameras.
Cheers,

Re: iPhone se 2
I took their 0% offer on my XR. I think it was 18 months the offer i got so it should be paid off at some point this year. I dont expect ill change it yet though as the XR is a brilliant phone.integrale_evo wrote: ↑Sat Apr 18, 2020 1:49 pm Might finally be time to upgrade my 6s

Re: iPhone se 2
Yeah, I was wrong, I had just googled a comparison with my old 6s. same screen as the iPhone 8 I think.
Still tempted although really my 6s is still fine

Re: iPhone se 2
I’d have an SE except that the XS screen has spoiled me. I’d prefer to go back to Touch ID instead of Face; there’s far more pressing the side button (to use Apple Pay, to install apps) than when it had the button.

Yeah, Face ID for authorisation was a step back. My new MacBook Pro has the finger print scanner and it’s just so much more slick.

Re: iPhone se 2
I'm pretty sure there's a phone with a fingerprint reader hidden in the display. Shame apple haven't managed to copy / refine that yet. Just for the looks really as my eyes still work fine and the 6/7/8 screen is plenty big enough.
Cheers, Harry
Re: iPhone se 2
When watching a video on the XS it leaves black bars either side which make it pretty much exactly the same size as a 6/7/8 video. And no silly notch.

Re: iPhone se 2
They bought out the old se not long after I got my 6s and I was annoyed as I would have preferred it

Re: iPhone se 2
Why do you need 256gb of storage ?
I haven't got that much on my laptop.

About a billion photos, a few videos, lots of apps and music at a decent bitrate.
My laptop doesn't have as much either, my main desktop pc has considerably more...

Had to get 512 as I was already over 256 then my Mac mini had a meltdown and I can no longer sync my music onto my phone any more so I’ve been using Spotify exclusively for the last 18 months.

Re: iPhone se 2
Work phone here too. I don't have a personal one - I don't get enough work calls for it to be annoying.
Have the August date bookmarked in my calendar when I become eligible for an upgrade. Which I think it to an iPhone 8, according to current policy. Go me!

Re: iPhone se 2
Exactly. I often refer back to images from ten years ago, plus I want my music library on the same device as my phone.
