I still prefer the original iPhone SE. I just don’t think phones have needed to be upgraded for years now. Why would someone upgrade a smart phone? The cameras from 10 years were already good enough to scan barcodes.
- fragmede 3y agoI'm on the 2020 SE, which is basically the same, with a bit more RAM and a newer CPU. I upgraded because there was a good deal on a refurbished one. The big reason to upgrade though is simply the march of time. I can have objections and opinions about software bloat, but the reality of that is that I'm powerless to fight that movement. In order to be able to run modern websites and apps on my phone, never mind software on my laptop, the newer phone is simply more capable of keeping up. The fancy bells and whistles of the latest and greatest 15-series aren't necessary (though the usb-c port is compelling) but being able to run apps acceptably, is. There was actually a brief moment I was going to get a 13 mini because it's actually smaller than my SE but that moment passed.
- tomjen3 3y agoBecause we like to take pictures of things other than barcodes? I swear I don't get people here who jump to conclusions so fast and just assumes that everybody is the same as them.
- jononomo 3y agoYes, come to think of it there was no good photography before the iPhone SE came along...
