^Yes, the 5, 5s and SE have identical housing. The 4 and 4s were shorter and thicker but with the same width.

Oh cool. I use my SE for both personal and work. But that's just my point in starting this thread. Some people such as yourself need or prefer a small phone for work. And others prefer a small phone for work and personal :)

You can find the SE New extremely cheap. It’s not a huge selling iPhone for obvious reasons and carriers have them discounted with promotions. I’m waiting to see if Apple does release an iPhone SE 2, but I’m not confident it will.

I'm guessing they will :) But even if they don't, I happy with my SE :)

I don't believe Apple will retain the home button for any future releases. The 8 and 8+ being the EOL devices for that feature.

I wish my SE didn't' have the mechanical home button. Maybe the new SE will be home button free.

We don’t know if their will be an updated SE. However, if it did include the solid state button, the reason behind the solid state was to help with the water resistance rating when it was first introduced with iPhone 7. The mechanical button would have allowed water to enter through the crevices with the 6s and current SE.
 
My wife would be more than happy if they kept the same iPhone 5S form as the current SE and just updated the processor and camera. If they don’t release a new version she’ll be keeping her current SE until it dies. I really hope Apple do address this part of their market.

that’s right it took me two weeks to adjust to the keyboard mainly but now is perfect ! is a 9 i wish we could just touch the button (not pressing) and it would go to main screen with that would be a 10
 
iPhone SE is the perfect bike touring phone. I have it attached to the handlebars on a holder, and can navigate via Google Maps, MapMyRide, and can hold conversations while riding. And of course, a great everyday phone easily carried everywhere.

Mine also was AT&T for $150 + $45 air time card.

Yes I would think now is a good time to buy an iPhone SE :)
