I previously had an iphone 4s. Then later on bought an iphone SE. I want to get a new iphone where the screen is a bit bigger. Back then it was the SE or 6 and i chosed the SE because i preferred the smaller size and screen. But now i feel like screen is definitely too small.


Which iphone would you guys recommend to get? It would be an unlocked one where i could use internationally. I checked apple.com and they have the 6, 7 etc. Also there is the plus. I assume avoid the plus because its way too big right? So any big difference between the 6 or 7? Also there is an 8 and X but those are ridiculously overpriced right? I want a basic iphone with a bigger screen... well bigger than the iphone SE. So does that mean its 6 or 7? Other thing is you guys always get the one where you get more space right for 100 dollars more? Because back then when i bought SE, it was like the option for 16gb or 64gb... think it was 400 dollars for the 16gb and 500 dollars for the 64gb and i obviously bought the 64gb.


Thanks.

I’d say get the iPhone 7 and choose the storage size the works for you.

I agree. I’d add that the 6S is still a very capable phone today and with iOS 12 should remain so for another year, but could feel slow after that. Spending a little extra for the 7 should give a longer useful life
 
Hi there. But anyone here still use the iphone SE? I personally find it decent. Issue is screen size is small which i did prefer a while back but now i want bigger screen.

But after iphone 7, there is iphone 8 and x only right? And these are way overpriced phones correct?
 
Hey all. So in my situation, its either iphone 6 or iphone 7 right? Thus don't bother with anything later than 7? And don't bother with the plus since those are very big right?
 
Okay did they stop selling the iphone 6 now due to the new iphone? I have to get an unlocked iphone. So that means get the 7 then? Also if i get that, always pay 100 dollars more for the 128gb as oppose to the 32gb right? My current iphone SE which has 64gb, i used up less than 20gb only.

My daughter and son-in-law each use the SE and love it. It does what they want.

Have you considered a refurbished iPhone 7 128GB? My understanding is that come with a new back and battery (at least that’s the way the refurbished iPads used to be) and with the same one-year warranty as a new phone: $469 from the online Apple Store.
 
I have a SE but plan on upgrading to the XR. A12 means it will last a few years ahead. Also the screen is twice the size of SE (90sqcm vs 44sqcm).
