There isn't much to not like. Apple is attempting to hit a user base it seems to try and stay away from. That's good.
There isn't anything that competes with it on the market for the money. If it came with an SD slot, it would literally destroy the market.

It just feels like their suppliers had a bunch of parts left over from the 5, and the 5S, and the 5C, and decided they could package it with the current iPhone's proc and camera and profit instead of writing off the excess parts.

Makes sense given Tim Cook was the "supplier wrangler" when Jobs was leading.

Is this just an upgraded iPhone 5s?
>>
>>53634605
This.

What would have impressed me is designing a completely new 4-inch phone, not rehashing a specific design from 4 years ago.

Specifically a new 4-inch iPhone without the retarded chamfered edges that dug into my palms like my iP5 did.
>>
Fuck. That.

i really want to buy one but i don't want everyone thinking i got a 5s. why could they refresh it a little bit ffs

Oh look, they're rebranding the iPhone 6.

I thought they'd do that for the iPhone 6c, like when they rebranded the iPhone 5 as a plastic iPhone 5c.

These same people call Apple product owners 'sheep'.

It's basically a 6S in a BETTER shell, the 5S is the best looking iPhone Apple ever made. The only thing it doesn't share with the 6S is the screen.

All that for $400. Its more powerful than a standard 6 in every category.
>>
>>53634802

Its got the internals of the 6S you retard. This isn't the 5C all over again. It actually has CURRENT YEAR top specs. People just begged Apple for a 4 inch phone, they thought they'd just used an already loved design which couldn't even be improved much further and put their current shit in it.
>>
>>53634993
>iPhone 5 couldn't be improved

How much per word do you make?
>>
>>53634970
>better shell
SE is not 7000 series, so no its not better. Its just smaller.

I like it and would love a smaller phone. However, I have a 6S and now, and I dont like compromises in the SE. The screen I can actually live with, but the gen 1 touch ID, lack of MIMO, stuff like is kinda a deal breaker.
If you are on an older iphone(5S/C, 5 etc) then the SE is a HUGE upgrade. While it is similar to a 6S in many ways, it is not the exact same thing in a smaller package, so Ill probably stick with the 6S
>>
As someone who has been using an iPhone 4S since it's release, I can say the iPhone SE hits my exact demographic.

A noteable segment of the market is not interested in bigger phones, they look for something compact. Unfortunatly, most compact phones in the market come with horrible performance and general issues. Enter the iPhone SE, a phone with amazing specs at a great price, and small form factor. What's not to like?

I personally hate fingerprint scanners built into my phone, but that's my privacy preference.
>>
I genuinely don't get what you retards like about I phones, used them plenty because my brother always gets a new one and I prefer my unrooted android
>>
>>53635178
Yeah, but it's doubtful that someone poor enough to still be using a 4S could even afford the cheap SE.
>>
>>53635221

I wouldn't say at all it has to do with being poor, but saw absolutly no features in phones released after the 4S that were a must-have. Only the phone getting bigger and having a fingerprint scanner, plus minor camera upgrades.
>>
>>53635278
And speed upgrades and clearer screens and less-fragile designs and new software improvements...

Sure the 4S was a nice size, but honestly I can't fathom a reason why not even an iPhone 5/S/C hasn't caused you to upgrade yet, but suddenly the SE has?

Same shit with my iPad mini. I wish I could easily roll back to iOS 7 or something. They spout so much bullshit about "supporting old hardware" because Android phones don't get OS updates after a year, without ever considering that maybe there's a reason you don't want to put a brand new OS on a 3-year-old device.

I never really liked iPhones.
This one though seems like a decent deal.
One of the few 4" phones with good specs on the market, seeing as you either get a big one with good specs or a 4" one with shit specs.
I don't really know if I would like iOS though.

Can someone point out strength and weaknesses of iOS compared to Android and/or WP?

Normies don't need SD card storage. I work in a repair shop, whenever people come in with their samshit phones the 32gb sd card usually has less than a gig used and only 50% of their 10gb flash storage used.

You only need SD storage if you're a flactard or like taking pictures in RAW.

It has the same battery as the 6S even though it is in a thicker shell, but you'll get a little more life out of it due to the lower screen resolution.

Is it though? The Z3c is old at this point and the Z5c took a beautiful design and made it look like some fisher price toy with the plastic shell. I was going to buy the Z5c but now I'm waiting for the Z6c and hope they don't fuck it up.

>>53647316
Z3C still works perfectly fine, if you never run into problems with the glass back you can still use it and not miss anything.
Z5C traded the glass back for something sturdier and isn't catching fire as a lot of retards thought. Has the same specs than the Z5 and also has the meme fingerprint thing. A decent upgrade if you had any other phone prior a Z3C, but maybe not worth it if you already are using one of those.

I do hope the Z6C to be better than those and to justify an upgrade if you had the Z3C. Maybe a higher res screen too.
>>

some months ago I really wanted the Z3C, then I decided I'll switch to ios and now the SE came out and it is a blessing and I was 100% convinced to get it as soon as it comes out but now I see the prices of the Z3C and it's so cheap, it's a sin not to get it

Dirt cheap flagship that will be supported for years in a compact design. Will be my first iPhone.

My only annoyance with it is the price in EU, 589€ is still great when compared to other options but it feels pretty bad to get jewed like that.

why is it so important to have an sd card slot? just get a phone with a large internal storage. also things get messy with an sd card.
>>
>>53635473
>literally less than 720p screen
With good PPI, so irrelevant. Why do you want extra pixels you won't see to burn through your battery?

>1.2mp front camera
Makes it a bit cheaper, people can still perfectly make you out, there is a great backcam. Sounds good.

>16gb or 64gb storage, no SD slot
No sd is a bummer but 64GB of fastest storage on a phone doesn't sound half as bad.

No thanks.

Was it THAT hard to come up with a new design and slightly improve that terribad front camera? I already have a 5s, why would I want to walk around looking like I have an old phone?

I see.

>implying re-using an unmodified 4 year old design is acceptable at all
If it works, who cares? The only excuse for new design are clear improvements and no downsides compared to previous one. Something iPhone 6 failed at.

The most obvious improvement of 5s would be thinner bezels but the current design is too much part of Apples design philosophy to remove it for an updated device.
>>
>>53650181
I hope you weren't one of the retards who traded in a good smartphone for that shit
>>
>>53650292
I use Instagram, Facebook and Snapchat often throughout the day and use the front camera a lot, of course I care about it. My 5s' front camera is really showing its age (again, 1.2 mpx) so why would they use it again? Obviously you don't have a social life if you think smartphones frontal cameras don't matter.

As for the design, I think it's just really lazy on their side. A lot of people didn't upgrade to a 6 due to the size, so a lot of 5 owners aren't going to feel too excited about rebuying the same phone again, when 99% of people don't care about things like processors and the current iPhone 5 or 5s still performs really well.
>>
>>53650516
>making selfies through the day means you have a social life
An interesting interpretation, anon.

And sure, the design is lazy but I doubt they intend it as an device for 5/5s owners, this might come with iPhone 7 if it's offered in 3 sizes.

SE seems like entry phone for people who want a small screen and wouldn't consider dated phones. Basically 5C done right.
>>
>>53644508

The extra power means the phone can go on longer before the software that is optimized for a faster SoC with more hardware features runs like shit on it.

Shit I really did just stop reading. That's the first time I've ever done that.

Probably no. Unless you want better cam, performance and bit longer battery life.

>>
>>53652020
Pretty sure Apple doesn't send outside of the country they are in and other ways seem risky in the "getting the phone" factor. Otherwise it'd be a no brainer, customs or not, would still be much cheaper.

I guess I could ask parts of my family in US send it to me, but I pretend to be a poorfag to them so I don't have to visit them (hardcore Christians are a pain), so yeah... getting cucked by Apple and Euro it is.

>implying appel's CPU alone doesn't blow every android flagship out of the water

Also the specs alone doesn't mean shit compared to the end result which is the performance. iOS is much more optimized whether you like it or not.
>>

>>
>>53653801
>iOS at iPhone 5 resolution on an A9

I'd wager it's going to have amazing performance and battery life as a result. But leave it to the Android cucks to cry that it's old. Meanwhile Android has not a single phone in the same size category with comparable features for the price, and even larger phones other than the Nexus 5X struggle to compete with the spec sheet.
>>
>>53654033
>and even larger phones other than the Nexus 5X struggle to compete with the spec sheet.
Basically ANY phone without Shitdragon 820 or new Exynos aren't even close performance-wise, specially if we include NAND speed that is abysmal on every Android phone.
>>
>>53654082
Not to mention that any phone with a processor anywhere below that can't even properly drive the 1080p+ displays they make such a big fuss about. I've had two mid-range phones now that were said to be perfectly smooth and both have noticeable stuttering compared to my old iPhone 5c. I'd wager the SE would just blow anything else at the price point out of the water. 1136x640 is barely even that much lower than 1280x720. When you compare shit like the Z3C and Moto G, the PPI is almost identical.
>>
>>53634352
It's a great improvement, and for the price, it's fabulous. However, I tend to use my phone with my laptop a fair amount, and having to manage media via itunes is absolutely out of the question.

If you feel like your phone will be totally self-contained and you'll never want to expand your storage, this is /g/: the phone

Given the shilling for Motorola and Nexus without micro SD, this never seemed a huge problem for /g/ in the first place.

I am still trying to figuire whether it's useful or not. Hearing different opinions from different people all the time. From "THE NEXT BIG THING" to "lolgimmick"

Though with the ugly camera bump, it's hard to want 6s even if 3D touch is any good.

Sell your 5S and use the proceeds to go towards an SE. It's basically the same phone just massively upgraded internals and will have support for longer.

Only problem is that nobody will know you have a new phone just by looking at it.

I hate big phones more than anything ever created when it comes to technology. It even surpassed my hatred of Apple so if my Lumia 920 ever stops working then I'd rather get an iShit than a dogshit Android tablet wannabe.

I ended up buying one this morning, 64GB in Rose Gold.

I was honestly waiting for the SE. I've always loved the iPhone 5/5s body and as soon as they confirmed that it would have the full 6s specs (beyond TouchID 2) I was sold.

Totally real. I generally like my personal affects to have some color, I get tired of black, white, and silver phones. Rose Gold isn't my favorite color but it's better than the other options.
>>
>>53648057
because a iPhone with 64gb is like 100 dollars more.
meanwhile 64gb sd cards are like 50 at most.
and transferring files with SD cards is much easier

I'm gonna go with Rose Gold too, that way I can tell it apart from my "Champagne" 5s.

i went space grey. thinking of the long term. white fronts always age horribly. Wanted a 128gb version tho ill carry less music.

according to >>53648148 if you're hands don't look like this your a faggot with girl hands.

I wish this manlet hands meme would just die. Not everyone has hands large enough to use a 5"+ phone with one hand. Some people actually prefer having a smaller phone for whatever reason and having more options on the market when it comes to screen size is a GOOD THING. Why would anybody bash having more options?
