Hi

I've been an iPhone user for long. Now my mum needs a phone. She has used iPad for two or so years, but no smart phones (feature / old phone user). For her, I'm tempted by the small size / easy to handle and good specification combo in iPhone SE.

She is very basic user. Will use the phone for some youtube, whatsapp and basic browsing in addition to calls. So I have couple of questions

1. Should I wait for couple of weeks / a month and go for an iPhone SE ?
1.1. if so are there discounts / bargains available *online* for SE ?

2. or should I just go for an Android phone at about the same price tag.
2.1. If I were to go for an android, which one is closest to Apple (in UI / learning, NOT features !)
2.2. Any Android suggestions ?

thanks in advance for all tips / ideas

PS : I searched here about androids closes to iPhone, most of those threads were old, hence posted this !!

regards
Subu
