The SE is the little iPhone that could. With a 4in screen and the body of an iPhone 5s, it fits in my pockets better than my iPhone 6s, and it's easier to use one-handed. But it doesn't compromise much over its bigger, more expensive siblings.
iPhone SE is a 4-inch phone unveiled by Apple on the 21st of March 2016. It's the first 4-inch produced by Apple since the launch of iPhone 5S in 2013.
The target group is users that prefer a compact and non-bulky phone with top features. Apple wants to ensure that existing iPhone 5S users don't switch to another brand when upgrading their phones. Hence, an upgraded 4-inch phone makes a lot of sense from this perspective.
The look of iPhone SE is almost identical to that of iPhone 5S in terms of form and look-and-feel. However, the four colours are the same as for the iPhone 6s.
The specs are impressive. The A9 processor powering the iPhone SE is 70% faster than the older A8 processor. The graphics processor (GPU) is 90% faster. In fact, Apple claims that graphics performance has been boosted three times compared to iPhone 5S.
The camera matches the performance of iPhone 6s and 6s plus. It's capable of recording in 4K at a 30 fps rate. The resolution of the camera is 12 MP. The Retina flash enables the front camera to take bright selfie shots.
The battery life has been vastly improved over iPhone 5S. Communication is also faster with network supported up til 433 Mbps. Wifi calling is also supported.
The iPhone SE is available with two storage options: 16GB and 64GB.

The SE is the little iPhone that could. With a 4in screen and the body of an iPhone 5s, it fits in my pockets better than my iPhone 6s, and it's easier to use one-handed. But it doesn't compromise much over its bigger, more expensive siblings.
If you've been doggedly clinging to a battered iPhone 5 or iPhone 5s, then the iPhone SE is your dream made real: a 4in phone with all the power of Apple's latest handsets. If, on the other hand, you've become used to a larger-screened phone then the iPhone SE looks and feels disconcertingly tiny.
The iPhone SE is as small as the iPhone 5 but as powerful as the iPhone 6s – and it has the same great rear camera – all for $679 (or $749 for 64GB of storage).
The iPhone SE is a flagship in every right, but a screen size of four inches is too hindering today. Like all iPhone, the Rs. 39,000 price tag can seem overpriced, and is a big reason why the phone is tough to recommend today.
Excellent performance; Best-in-class ergonomics; Crisp; sharp display
4-inch display is too restricted; Battery life is still rather low; Lags behind in low light photography
Apple announced something really different last month when it launched the iPhone SE along with smaller iPad Pro 9.7. We saw a smaller iPhone being unveiled for the first time and it has already hit Indian shores.
Great build quality; Powerful internals; Above average battery life; Great rear-facing camera with Live Photos and 4K Video; Fast cellular and WiFi connectivity; Stable iOS software with huge selection of apps
Design is same as the 5S; Expensive price tag in India; Below average Front facing camera; Limited to 16/64GB storage
In what was perhaps the worst kept secret in company history, Apple on Monday announced the 4-inch iPhone SE , a phone that looks similar to the now nearly four-year old iPhone 5 , but boasts innards that are identical to the current flagships iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus .
"Honey, someone has shrunk my iPhone!" That was my first reaction when I held the tiny iPhone SE for the first time. I'm an iPhone 6s Plus user and my hands felt really large while holding the iPhone SE.
Apple's new smaller iPhone has launched today, the handset comes with the power of the iPhone 6S in the smaller form factor of the iPhone 5S and there are already iPhone SE reviews from various sites.
I bought one of these phones in June for my 20 year old sons' birthday....another one in July for my daughters'...and then another in August for me after seeing how awesome this phone was for them. :) I haven't even used a third of the memory and I've installed everything I use.
It's a sign of the times when a smartphone coming in at over ￡350 for the basic model is described as cheap. The iPhone SE isn't cheap, but it is the best value iPhone we've ever seen.
Small screen with powerful spec; Strong camera; Good battery life
Contrast could be better; Audio lacks in dynamics and subtlety
