iPhone SE (2020) iPhone SE 2020 or iPhone XR?

[fati22]

I wanted to buy an iPhone SE 2. It's a pretty decent phone from what I've researched. But there seems to be a big problem: battery life. From what I've read, the SE 2's battery is very low and is draining incredibly fast while watching videos. As someone who constantly watches/listens to videos in the background, this was a bit of a sad piece of information for me. I discovered the iPhone XR in the same price range, but I'm a little skeptical because it's a pretty old model. Anyone have any ideas on this? Do you think I should get the iPhone SE 2 or the iPhone XR?

I'd say the extra money spent on an iPhone 11 would be worth it. It would solve the battery/iOS support issues and has more features than the SE..

I would not get the iPhone XR in this day in age if apple drops IOS updates for it next year your going to end up just wasting your money

I would spend a little more and get your self iPhone SE 2022 you get the A15 chip now unless you don't need 5G then I would get the iPhone SE 2020 but keep in mind that it has the A13 chip so you may be looking at 1 or 2 more years of IOS updates tops for that phone so if you want to really future proof your self I get some in with at lest with a A15 chip in side

This.

I have had all three of these phones, and the 11 all the way.

If I could I would definitely attempt to get iPhone 11. It’s a much better device and will be supported as long as the SE 2020.

True!
If you can afford it, go for the iPhone 11.
Actually I don’t think there is a big price difference between a refurbed 11 and a SE 2020.
My wife still rocks a iPhone 11 and she is happy still after 3 1/3 years.
