User opinions and reviews

iOS 17 is likely to be its last version but Apple’s software support is seriously underappreciated.

The size is fine but the weight is noticeable. This design but with a weight closer to the SE would be great.

I have an SE 2020, been thinking to 'upgrade' (I know is and older model) to this specifically for its size, do you think its a good idea? I've also looked on android but so far only the S10e caught my attention
