That price would be low enough (and the phone would be small enough) to not steal sales from the 4.7 inch SE, while catering to a new market in terms of price and size.

Used the SE for 4 years then spent a year trying other phones.
Bought another SE off eBay for $50 and went back.
I don't watch movies, play games, or browse social media.
I text, call, play music, check banking, weather, and sports scores.
Best phone ever made in my opinion.
Wish the new SE was same form factor with a better camera.

For anyone who has battery related issues... Try turning on the low power mode. It significantly increased my sot and managed to last 2 days on standby! Which is pretty amazing for a 5yr old phone(battery health @80%)

This phone is great for those looking for a reliable, modern, and acceptably fast phone for daily use. It may not have the same raw performance as a iPhone 13, or the same glamour, but it's still an iPhone: great build, great aftermarket support, and plenty of cases to make it yours.
Raw performance is pretty middling. With all the new features and add-ons that iOS 14 and 15 brought, it sometimes struggles. It may not be able to load your photos in an instant, but it gets there after a second or two of thinking. It's not the fastest, but it certainly isn't the slowest. And Apple has really optimized their OS for their older devices: the iPhone 6S / 6S+, 7 and 8 have 2GB of RAM, the same as the iPhone SE (1). The only differences are design, more cores, and more fancy displays.
If you are looking to buy one, don't bother with a 16GB model, iOS 15.2 takes up most of the space. I'd recommend a 32GB as the minimum, as you'll have a lot more leeway in installing apps, taking photos, and playing media. But, if you're on a tight budget and just need a phone to do basic tasks, then go ahead!
Also, consider a battery replacement if the battery has not been changed. It will make a big difference in performance and daily use.

Mandar, 15 Dec 2021I think the new apps and OS are too heavy for this battery.... moreYou will get about 3 years out of the battery, which adds up to about 1400 cycles if you charge the phone every day.
In my experience you will need to arrange a quality battery replacement and your phone be like new again.

how's the battery on IOS 15.1 if your replaced it with a new one? I have mine at 89% Health but the battery suddenly drops sometimes from 68% to 57% with some light browsing and Messaging lol, I thought it is the battery since is 2 years already since I changed one.. Will I get an improvement if I replaced it with a new one? really love the size of this phone and it suites my needs for Digital Minimalism.. Just FB Messenger, Imessage, Text and Call and some light Safari Browsing

I use this phone as a third wheel behind my Flip 3 and Razr 5G and it's still very nice to use. But iOS15 really made battery life take a nosedive. On iOS14, it was already bad but not that bad.
I got it just last January and battery is now at 92%. So it's like I need a battery replacement. It's really the new software updates really killing it. Wish I can go back to iOS12 which was a great update for battery life.
I do really enjoy the phone. I can't stand iOS but do love this iPhone's hardware. I plan to always keep it because I prefer Touch ID and still need an iPhone for iMessage, Apple Pay, and the screen recorder for adult videos. And it has a headphone jack. AirPods gets annoying disconnecting and always needing a charge.
