SE is one of the most interesting line of iPhones. Perhaps it's simplicity?

Been using one for about 2 months now. Came down from a 13 pro max because I got tired of the huge size in my pocket. Phone works surprisingly great in 2024 using the 128gb model with a new battery. Only problem that arises is when you want to multi task then the phone does struggle and start to have hip ups. And for that reason I am switching go an iPhone 13 mini. But If you’re on a budget this is a great option just make sure you put in a new battery.

This was the first iPhone that I actually daily drove; I loved it. I have so many good memories with it. It was the perfect size, and I found that the battery life was good enough. I've since switched to Android, though the 13 mini did tempt me.

I have a 64gb model that I replaced the battery in last year that I've been using basically like an iPod ever since. It has been working perfectly for me and I could still put my SIM card in it if I ever needed to. It went to iOS 15.7 when iOS 16 came out and has had 12 security updates since then putting it up to 15.8.2

I recently tried to go back down from my iPhone 12 mini to an iPhone SE 2016. Only one thing stood in my way: my Apple Watch. I use an Apple Watch SE, which is, funnily, incompatible with my iPhone SE 2016. Other than that, I could probably have done everything on the SE. Problem is how tedious it is to move apps and logins, as well as relogging in. If I get rid of my Apple Watch, nothing is really stopping me from going back to it. Battery life has always been an issue for small phones, but considering I already have a 20,000mAh battery, plus a battery phone case, I'm not really in a deficiency for charge. My only qualm with my SE: it's a second hand I bought, so the screen has micro scratches, the housing has some dents..Might spend some money and buy another housing, a new display, downgrade myself. Idk, future plans. I'm glad this video popped up on my main KZitem page, just another place to voice opinions.

Yeah, I guess having some deformities is part of the fun of having an older phone. Interesting to know that your apple watch isn't compatible with the SE
@saanyoun
2 ай бұрын
@@dumbcomputing I think it's maybe due to the watchOS being of a later version, I looked it up and it did say the watchOS had to be earlier than like, 8? So makes sense. I guess I can agree on some deformities contributing to the age factor of the phone, but then again, it's always nice to try and keep a phone clean, and watch it 'deform' along with you. Hence why people occasionally swap out parts, change housings or displays. It is a grand expenditure, but it overall builds value in one's heart.

I hear ya about the crap and bloat of a smartphone, it's really annoying and infuriating. I've been using phones with LineageOS and turn the notifications off for all apps except calls and texts. While a fliphone or dumbphone isn't for me (i've tried) using a good simple launcher and disabling notifications for everything non essiental is super helpful.
