Fans: AWESOME! Lov... morethe problem with SE is they used the outdated 3 4 years product design, the market demand are different now. if they used the XR body on SE surely they'll get better sales and respond. You dont need to use the latest A chip, just put last year A chip with in it and better camera than XR, it should be a better options.
Nowadays people are using their phone mostly on entertainment and taking photos, so bigger display and better camera are more demanded than raw power.

Daemon Targaryen, 08 Jan 2023Don't always listen to online influencers. Ten years a... moreHTC was way ahead of Samsung at that time in term of build and premium feeling on their unit. Nothing near HTC M7 M8 and HTC 10, Samsung was better on features at that time especially on Note series. Too bad HTC didnt survive till this day, their product are superior at that time compare to other Android Brand including Samsung.

kabhijeet16, 07 Jan 2023OMG !!! Will you guys stop this iPhone SE nonsense already.... moreYou don't speak for everyone mate.
There are people who prefer smaller displays, physical finger print reader, and many other factors.
It is because people care that we see this article.
Apple killed it partly because the vast majority is like you, doesn't mean different opinions should be just suppressed even if they have logical arguments.

SE is dead? Great. It hasn't even been any better, especially the heavily overpriced iPhone SE 5G which costs 429$.

Don't always listen to online influencers. Ten years ago, these same techtubers kept saying that HTC and Apple made premium products because of the metal material they used. Complained that Samsung used cheap plastic. That's the narrative on Samsung. They used cheap plastic. Then Samsung and LG switched from plastic to glass and we never got removable batteries ever again.
Galaxy S5 (2014) had a plastic back but was still water-resistant, had a removable battery, expandable storage, and headphone jack. We had it better 10 years ago until Apple products influenced the industry to remove all those features like they did to chargers and earphones in the box. Always think for yourself. Don't be part of a beehive.
I have my silver iPhone X next to my red SE3 as we speak. My SE3 may look outdated but it's the superior iPhone. My X seems to have the worst audio and call quality for an iPhone. Has the speakers of the original iPhone from 2007. And OLED is so overrated. My X has this greenish tone to it. I prefer the brighter colors of my SE3's LCD.
My X may eventually get the green line of death as many Galaxy Ses from that era which used the same Samsung displays eventually got that. The X is so overrated and the SE3 is so underrated.
Better SoC: SE3
Better battery life: SE3
Faster/smoother: SE3
Display: SE3
Looks: X
Ergonomics/comfort: SE (still shorter and lighter)
Touch ID > Face ID
Sound: SE3
Call quality: SE3
Listen, I can't expect a 5-year-old iPhone to beat an iPhone with an A15 chip. But the only thing my X beats SE3 is appearance but I tend to prefer performance over looks. The SE3 is going to be a lot more appreciated over the time.
The Last Of Their Kind
iPhone SE (2016): Compact. Headphone jack. GOAT design.
iPhone 13 mini (2021): Last iPhone mini.
iPhone SE (2022): Last SE model with Touch ID and sim tray.
I own 2 of those 3 and I'm only reluctant getting the 13 mini because I really don't like the flat sides and still do prefer Touch ID over Face ID. I prefer swiping from the bottom for Control Center. I prefer the 16:9 aspect ratio that's notch-less. I owned the 12 mini and I still preferred my SE1 when putting in my pocket. The taller display makes my thumb reach further from the top.
That 8 design really is underrated but nobody appreciates an iPhone 6/6S/7 having a baby with an iPhone 4/4S. And the SE3 is one of the most repairable recent iPhones out there since the 8 and SE2 parts are so easy to source.

I absolutely love my SE Apple iPhone. I am very sad to think that it might not be continued. I hope they change their mind about it. It’s a great phone for the money. And I love having the button feature.

Dead? Apple will come up with a new model once parts stockpile, or prices have gone down, or if the global economy is bad and recession hits hard, or when people have grown weary again of buying the flagships and Apple has to make people think they care by offering a good value entry model again.

iPhone 5->5S->SE1 (3.5 year span)
Fans: AWESOME! Love it!
iPhone 8->SE2->SE3 (4.5 year span)
Fans: I hate SE3! OUTDATED DESIGN!!!
So when Apple uses the 5 design a third time, it's fine. But if Apple does it for the 8 design, it's terrible? If Apple had released an SE4 that looks like the XR/11, that's the third time they're using that design.
This is a case of never judge a book by its cover but people do. People online are so easily influenced by YouTubers without actually owning the device. The SE3 is a fantastic iPhone with great value IF you can get it far under MSRP which is very possible since not many buy the SEs.
The SE3 is what the SE2 should've been in the first place. Not have atrocious battery life. You're telling me the Pixel 6a has better value? Have you seen Tensor against the A15 chip? The 6a doesn't even have wireless charging, a feature that can eliminate the need to carry all your different cables with you.
Own the devices yourselves and judge them. Don't agree with all these people on YouTube only wanting your views, likes, and subs. People praise the iPhone X when I think it's as overrated as Breath of the Wild. I've played far more fun games than BOTW. That's nowhere close in my top 200 favorite games I've played.
