Apple iPhone SE 2020

Apple learned a harsh lesson the year that it launched the iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max people DO care about value for money. It was a lesson worth many millions of dollars because the following year, Apple worked on its brand positioning and pricing in such a clever way that it left a wide range of people with varying budgets extremely satisfied. And now it looks like Apple plans to bring back a device that was a huge hit when it made its debut back in 2016. That s right, we mean the iPhone SE. The new phone, that is being addressed as iPhone SE (2020), comes with a 4.7-inch LCD display offering a resolution of 750 x 1334 pixels. The Apple A13 Bionic chip sits at the heart of the iPhone SE (2020), handling all the computing tasks. The phone packs 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage space and runs iOS 14. The device features a 12MP camera on the back and a 7MP selfie snapper on the front. Disappointing battery life continues to be a feature on iPhones this year as the iPhone SE (2020) is equipped with a 2050mAh cell. Some of the popular Apple mobile phones include the iPhone 12, the iPhone 12 Pro, and the iPhone 12 Pro Max.

  • Stereo speakers
  • Dual-band Wi-Fi ax and Bluetooth v5.0 for future-proof connectivity
  • Wireless charging on offer
  • Bad Stuff
  • A larger, OLED display would have been a welcome addition

Verdict
The Apple iPhone SE 2 might not offer the bells and whistles that Android smartphones in the same category offer. However, if you look at the overall package, the iPhone SE 2 makes much more sense buying. It has an excellent display, a capable rear camera, am excellent front camera, fastest and smoothest performance in the segment, great stereo speaker quality, long battery backup, and fast charging. It is also one of the very few newly-launched devices in the segment to offer IP68 water and dust resistance. Plus, you get to enjoy Apple s clean and robust iOS 13 OS and brand s software ecosystem. What else do you need in a smartphone?
