- ivraatiems 8y agoThis is persuasive, but I wonder why they didn't test the SE. Maybe because the 5S is older but quite similar/appeals to the same market?
- edbaskerville 8y agoThe SE is basically a 6 in the 5S form factor.
- xuki 8y ago6s
- masklinn 8y agoIt has the 6S's internal hardware, not the 6's. So it's way more powerful than the 6, let alone the 5S.
- ahakki 8y agoThere are actually two phones called iphone se. It was updated from iphone6 hardware to iphone6s hardware partway through it’s life cycle withou a change to the name. The updated SE is also availible in rose gold while the original was not.
- deergomoo 8y agoThat is not true at all. There’s only ever been one SE and it was always based on the 6S hardware. The closest thing to a refresh was a mid-cycle bump to the base storage.
- wlesieutre 8y agoThe iPhone SE launched with 6S internals and has never been changed except for a storage bump and a price drop.
- earenndil 8y agoFaster than ios 11. Unclear if it's faster than ios 10.
