So... this would be a good iPhone 6S upgrade?

  Yes

  It's the iPhone 11 hardware in an iPhone 6S~8 body so yeah.

  If it had a headphone jack...

    Removing the headphone jack was a pure marketing move to get the bad press out of the way with iPhone 7, so iPhone X wouldn’t have to deal with it. Keeping the jack off of the 8 and SE is just spite. It’s the only flaw in the SE.

      Ugh, agreed. I miss having a jack all the time. I’m so reluctant to buy an adapter for good headphones so I’m still using the ones it shipped with. They’re not great.

  Yes, it's also really future proof with that A13 chip. That said though, the 6S is surprisingly good even today. Doesn't feel slow for normal tasks, and probably supported for at least one more OS upgrade cycle. Impressive little 5 year old phone.

  I made a comparable upgrade path and I’m unexpectedly stoked with where I landed with the SE. It’s a wonderful little device in its own right, and a significant upgrade over a 6S. I didn’t expect to like this phone as much as I do. Someone else mentioned the screen brightness isn’t great outdoors. It’s perfectly usable but my previous phone was noticeably better. It really doesn’t matter to me, though. I’m typing this without issues in direct afternoon sunlight.
