If you bought an iPhone SE 64gb at launch, it cost you $499. $120 per support year so far. best. smartphone. ever. (I actually just dug mine out to give it another go, but the battery is nuked from sitting untouched for eighteen months :\ )

I can't wait for the iPhone 12 announcement. Rumor has it that we'll finally be able to upgrade to a newer small iPhone.

  Such a rumor has been circling every year since the original iPhone SE was released. I do still really hope so though...

    I finally bit the bullet and upgraded from a SE, compromising on the size of the phone. I already notice increased wrist stress and place more sideways weight than is optimal on my pinky (to hold the phone up but also be able to reach single-handed). So, knowing how life works, we can guarantee that Apple will release a small form factor phone as part of their next offering ;)

  Apparently it's not that small, sadly :( But it might be the only one I can buy as my iPhone SE ages out of the support window soon.

    It's said to be smaller than the new SE and just a couple of millimeters bigger than the original SE. >the 5.4-inch iPhone won’t be much bigger than the original (2016) 4-inch iPhone SE 131 x 64 mm (5.15 x 2.51-inches) https://www.forbes.com/sites/gordonkelly/2020/05/07/apple-iphone-12-size-display-release-cameras-notch-5g-upgrade-iphone-11-pro-max/ https://www.forbes.com/sites/gordonkelly/2020/05/07/apple-ip...

      It's closer in size to the new iPhone SE than the old one :(
      - GeekyBear 6y ago
        It's 8 millimeters taller and 6 millimeters wider than the original SE, assuming the leaks are true, of course.

        That's a couple more millimeters than I think I would have preferred, but I guess we'll see when it comes out how it feels in-hand.

You're not alone! I'm die hard fan of SE (SE ONE of course!) and form factor is perfect for me.

Try doing a battery replacement. I bought one off Amazon for $20 and it came with all the necessary tools. The process was pretty easy if you watch a few guides on YouTube beforehand.
