The camera is the same as the iPhone 6S and as such is very good, if not quite the best.

I also didn’t suffer from the reported Bluetooth audio issues.

I went to bed with 10% battery left and work up eight hours later with 5%.Ĭompared to other iPhones, most will see better battery out of the SE, but it doesn’t come close to its closest Android competitor, the Xperia Z5 Compact, which lasted as long as three days between charges.Ĭall quality was excellent. Using it as my main device, with hundreds of emails, push notifications, three hours of browsing and listening to music - without the Facebook app installed - the iPhone SE lasted a solid working day. The iPhone SE’s battery life is better than the 6S, mirroring that of the 6S Plus. It’s the same original Touch ID sensor from the iPhone 5S/6, not the new, much faster Touch ID sensor from the 6S, which is disappointing. Performance is much faster overall than the iPhone 5S and feels similar to that of the iPhone 6S, apart from the fingerprint sensor, which is pretty slow for a 2016 smartphone costing £350+. It also has 2GB of RAM - double the iPhone 5S - which makes multitasking or browsing multiple tabs in Safari a lot faster with less reloading. The processor and graphics chip is an Apple A9 from the iPhone 6S, which makes it as fast as its bigger brother. It has a combination of iPhone 5S, iPhone 6 and iPhone 6S parts.

When you dig into the innards of the iPhone SE things start to get more interesting. The Touch ID sensor is slower than the one on the iPhone 6S, which makes it easier to see the lockscreen, but also forces you to wait a second or so to get to the homescreen. Websites feel very cramped, apps often leave only a small amount of screen to the content they’re trying to display and buttons can end up very small making tapping them a bit of a challenge. Using a 4in screen in 2016 is a compromise. Practically no other 4in devices in this high-end category exist anymore. The iPhone SE’s closest rival is the excellent Sony Xperia Z5 Compact, which has a significantly larger 4.6in display, weighs 138g, is 8.9mm thick and has slightly larger dimensions. The hard edges are easier to grip than the slippery rounded sides of the iPhone 6S, and particularly the large 6S Plus, but they hurt my palms after clutching it for an hour or two. In the hand the body feels sharp and hard, with unforgiving edges which are only acceptable because of the phone’s diminutive size. It’s not a bad screen by any stretch of the imagination, it’s just a good screen from two years ago, which is exactly what it is.

Compared to the iPhone 6S the screen is noticeably weaker, with poorer blacks and vibrancy. The screen is the same as the 5S, 4in on the diagonal with the same quality colours, brightness and blacks. Then again, it’s very small for a smartphone in 2016. It’s still relatively slender at 7.6mm thick - its hard square edges make it feel thicker than it is - and it weighs 113g, which is quite light for a smartphone these days. The only differences are that the edges are the same colour and texture as the back of the device, it comes in rose gold, the Apple logo on the back is shiny, and there’s a small “SE” emblem on the back, reminiscent of the Machintosh SE from 1987. The iPhone SE is the spitting image of the iPhone 5S. All-metal body, glass top and bottom and a glass-front, a mirror image of the iPhone 5 and 5S.
