A modern middleclass chip can easily last a few years without really feeling slow (and it would benefit the SE in terms of battery life too, I assume)

Most new budget phones with slower chips like the Snapdragon 695 will only last about a year before they start to feel slow

For that price it's a steal, but for just a little more, you can get way better specs overall, at times with updates as long if not longer, too

If Apple wants a fourth phone, they should do an annual SE, i.e. a truly cut-down phone. Maybe they can even include a headphone jack to show how cheap it is.

                  Battery is always poor, screen is so small you need to zoom all the time, everything is cramped when you try to read it or look at it. And all for what? Just to sit nice in my pocket. Neah..is 2024, phones are media devices now in the first place. If I would want just a small phone in my pocket, I will buy a Nokia with buttons.

                      Plus, there are second hand stores (at least in Czechia, who give 12 months warranties) and sometimes even refurbished iPhones appear at cheaper prices.

                        Only Pro model is Xperia 1V.

                          You cannot get iPhone Pro 15 after 16's release. It is for one single reason, to hide the lack of innovation from one release to the next. All are the same in 3 years span. Instead on making the case thicker with good grips on sides and double battery capacity, they make the same shinny shitty slim case which is a waste of materials and people's savings on yearly release.

The SE because of the laughably outdated tech sheet despite the positives, the standard iPhone for just being too expensive, also offering too little when compared to Android phones at that price range. It's not a surprise most people go for a Pro or Pro Max when the alternatives suck so much. At this point the standard iPhone is shit on purpose, just to not lose too many sales to it and it is just evil.

                                Apple totally lost it now. Either the non-Pro willl be so bad that even more people will get the Pro Max, or they officially went gaga. Those numbers make no sense

Even apple can't afford a foundry.
