thanks since you have Geekbench 4 what are the numbers are you getting with the A13 chip they did some in odd with GeeekBench 5 this year
The SE 2020 is looking like the perfect upgrade from my 6S. I understand why some dislike the large-bezel look now that we have the notched phones, but I personally don't mind one bit.
Hate bringing this up, but any issues so far with screen uniformity? My 6S is quite awful when compared to the XR or 11, with the top being noticeably yellowish and dimmer.

Got mine Today, Everything migrated over from my my old iPhone 8, simple transition, seems to be a bit faster but I have not performed any tests…
I totally don't mind the bezels.
I like the aesthetic of neatly-framed content and I'm averse to weird sloppy borders, so the notch really bugs me in a visceral way. It's so goofy looking.
And I haven't noticed and uniformity issues with the screen at all so far. But also I didn't have them in the 6s.
Got mine yesterday afternoon set it up as new rather from a cloud backup, not found a single problem with the screen or rest of the phone for that matter usually bit cautious buying phones on launch.
Anyways really happy with the SE.

I have Verizon and have been contemplating the same switch. How do you like Xfinity Mobile so far?!
Enjoy paying $800 for that, then. Got my SE today and loving it so far. Upgraded from a 4.5 year old 6S, which honestly I had no complaints about. Just figured this upgrade is cheap enough it’s hard to turn down and I should get another 4 years out of it.
This thing is so fast! Everything just happens instantly. Honestly... I don’t know why anyone would get the more expensive iPhone. This one does everything I need it to. I’m probably Apple’s worst nightmare from a profitability point of view, but they haven’t added any compelling new features to these phones for years.
Did you book a hotel room especially for you and the SE? The carpet (albeit a small pattern shown) looks like a hotel carpet lolGot mine yesterday afternoon set it up as new rather from a cloud backup, not found a single problem with the screen or rest of the phone for that matter usually bit cautious buying phones on launch.

The only reason these bezels wouldn't bother me after using a samsung device is that it's actually nice to hold a device upon the the front without accidentally triggering a screen press or touch.
I think if I moved from my current note device I'd miss the AOD display more than I think.
Go onto the front page of MacRumours, I posted them a couple of days ago and they pinned it in the main page.
Curious to ask, can you swipe from the bottom to the top to access the quick settings like the original SE? Or do you need to swipe down from the top right like on the iPhone X/XS/11 phones?
^ If you mean accessing Control Center, it’s swipe up from the bottom.
I really like mine, just bummed it is a mostly for work phone (I can deal with the battery life and echo on some phone calls just fine because it is for work. If they cannot deal, tough).
I love the size, the weight, responsiveness, color and the speaker is surprisingly good too.
To no one’s surprise, the 2019 iPad takes garbage photos, so I can not post pictures.

Yeah the control centre! Well good to know, that means one handed usability is still a thing on the new SE!
Only my second day with it and haven’t noticed any difference yet. I think the real test will come in congested situations and with the pandemic I don’t think I’ll be testing that out anytime soon.
Only regret so far is I wish I had tried it a couple years ago.
I can already tell the battery is going to be better than anticipated. I plan on seeing if I can make it through the weekend without a charge.
I have the 11 Pro and love the idea of having a smaller phone again. What holds me back is the bigger screen and higher resolution on the 11 allows me to read e-mails, texts or check something online without my glasses first thing in the morning or when out with my dog which is a convenience I'm not ready to give up. Give the SE a try and pass it on to your granddaughter if you don't like it. Win, Win.
That's my plan - just ordered it in white. ATT had a good deal if you upgraded ($10/month - no upgrade fee if you did it online), and since my daughter upgrades through Apple, there was an upgrade available (I'll just stick my SIM card in it before turning it on so it doesn't activate with my daughter's number).
If having a small phone isn't for me, it'll be easy enough to pass it on to my granddaughter.
These no brainer pricing deals, if you're already in the market for a line, or in case of Walmart ok with financing for a bit before even a penalty free buyout option, are truly no brainers.
especially since SE2 will be a longevity model, like SE1 was the latest silicon at the time for a fraction of the price in a binned parts body.

Congratulations! White would be my choice also. I think it's beautiful. I'm anxious to hear how you like the SE compared to your X. I had the iPhone 6, 6S, 7, 7S and 8 and loved them all.
