The huge bezels will be a let down and the 4.7'' screen is not enough by 2019 standards. Only thing good will be A13 chip and iOS. Even if someone settles for 4.7'' screen, the 16:9 ratio screen is dud and looks ugly.

Argon, 14 Oct 2019iPhone SE 2 will start at $399 +Hooray,at least iPhone u... moreThose specs are totally fine for an iPhone, especially an entry-level iPhone. And 6.4"+ smartphones are for people that don't have a decent laptop, desktop, or TV. Who watches full-length videos, shows, and movies on a smartphone anyway? Oh right, I answered my own question already lol.

It'll be my second iPhone, the first smartphone I ever owned was a used and already jailbroken iPhone 3G lol. Is that still a thing in the iPhone world? I remember feeling really excited about using a jailbroken iPhone even before I fully knew what jailbreaking was.

People just want to know which is the latest iPhone, how could you categorize someone who has a craving for apple products blindly to be a techie. A good mobile user analyze and compare phones not based on their specifications in contrast with their performance and quality. 48MP Redmi camera is nothing in front of a 12MP iPhone camera, so quantity of measures doesn't matter at all.

Kingslayer, 14 Oct 20192020 will be in the mist of a revolution. The timing for th... moreI don't care about foldable smartphones at all, and I'm not the only one. The tech isn't advanced enough and it just looks and feels too gimmicky. Besides, I can't stand the crease in the center of the screen and it'll definitely malfunction after a certain period of time. CNET did a durability test of the Galaxy Fold and it didn't last nearly as long as Samsung claimed it would. As for the Surface Duo, who wants to open their smartphone everytime they receive a call?, that's so annoying lol. I don't care about other people's insignificant opinions, I'm perfectly content with using an "old-looking" device as long as it's small and powerful. And, of course, it'll be faster than even the best Android flagships out there thanks to iOS and Apple's unbeatable A13 SoC.

Everybody... moreNonsense. Apple released the original iPhone SE for $400 as well and it didn't cannibalize the sales of iPhone 6S/Plus or the iPhone 7/Plus. Also Kuo has been very reliable so your claim about fake news is absolutely laughable.
This device is for people who want to upgrade from iPhone 6 while keeping the same form factor and for people who wouldn't have bought the $700 iPhone 11 in the first place. Now they'll be able to get the $400 iPhone SE 2 instead of an Android phone.

So many people these days falling for fake news.
Everybody knows at this price, nobody will buy the upper segment iPhones resulting in less overall revenue. Apple ain't breaking their profitable model anytime soon.

I tell you, if you truly know TECH. You will not dismiss Apple product so easily. And you can use any phone, android or ios.
Apple product is successful regardless of knowing tech or not. It attract people, NOT because of SPECS, NOT because of PRICE, but a good user experience. And because of that success, the brand gain status and respect, respect that was build up. The respect is sooo high, people are SOLD the moment they see the BOX. Even if the Box is just a potato scam.
I always see in the shop.. they will ask the salesman.. then the salesman says the same thing.. WOW this pHONE have octa CORE, the latest Snapdragon, HIGHEST Pixel density of any Phone on the market, and it cost 1/2. So what??
Go apple store, people only need to ask 1 thing. IS this the latest version of iPhone? DONE. No need to guess Dual core/ quad core / A13 / A9 / A7.. They test the phone on the spot. Play some games, TAKE a few pictures, play with the biometric, get a feel of the device. And they are sold.
Because in the end of the day, so long as the need is fulfilled. Who cares able specs or tech.

Ahh, I can't wait to ditch buggy, fragmented, and malware-infected Android for this. I'll get one for myself and one for my wife who is currently using a crappy Redmi Note 7 Pro.

Anonymous, 14 Oct 2019So, you can exclude tons of chinese phones from your future... moreMan i can guarantee you that Iphone 11 pro max dont cost more than 500 dollars price to make one device.
TechInsights’ total for all the parts and manufacture for the iPhone 11 Pro Max is $490.50. That’s 45% of the amount Apple charges for this product.
https://www.cultofmac.com/658650/iphone-11-pro-max-production-cost-bill-materials-bom/
And chinese devices are made from new materials not from used ones. Only some rare cases should be exception.
So in other words we can call apple pure robbery. Most chinese brands sells pretty cheap because even 25% profit is more than enough for them.
Apple profit on every 11 pro max is much more device cost more than twice the making price.

6 inch phones with small bezels are the best for watching videos and playing games.
