Agreed. I put my iPhone 6 up for auction yesterday and was guaranteed $439 for it. Totally willing to trade 64GB for the form factor I prefer + better camera than I have already for an additional $61.
Got a tip for us?

Keeping my 5S 64GB until next March it seems. I hoped they would change the design a bit at least.
Doubt that's possible since most smartphone manufacturers nowadays have 6s-sized phones as their smallest flagship.
This might set a trend though. It's likely that we'll see an announcement for a Samsung Galaxy S7se before the end of the year.
Yes, I agree, which would allow them to bump this one down even cheaper ... maybe $299 still with pretty decent specs, and still sell it in the US and developed countries.
might get the 64gb for my wife in rose gold if the canadian dollar recovers at some point. If not then she will have to struggle along with the always full storage on her 8gb iphone 5c (they never should have released that phone in 8gb)
Excellent upgrade of internals. It's good to see that the iPhone SE is equivalent to the iPhone 6S on internals. However, Tim Cook reveals his cluelessness once again by refusing to offer a 128GB models. There are iPhone users right now still using 64GB versions of the iPhone 4S, 5, and 5S who want to upgrade to a new phone because they have almost run out of storage and need more, but only want to upgrade to a 4-inch phone. The iPhone SE does not meet those potential customers' needs.
The 64GB iPhone 4S was released in 2011. It's been 4.5 years since its release. It was a poor decision for Cook to cap the iPhone SE storage at 64GB. Apple should have released a 128GB version at a more expensive price than the 64GB version.

16GB in 2016, seriously? at least it looks like it still got a headphone jack ;-)!
Yes, but you are extremely unstylish. Don't drag the rest of us down with you.
It can shoot 4k. But you can't watch 4K on AppleTV.
You won't be doing much 4K recording on 16GB anyway.
lol @ everyone afraid to try a 4.7" phone. Come on... it isn't THAT bad!
I'm sensing that loads of people in thread aren't grasping the point of the SE. It's to appease those people still using legacy form-factor devices but still wish to stay with Apple, like my Mum. The SE was never going to have TOL specs; I'm personally rather impressed and quite gratified with how much Apple was willing to update the 5s whilst keeping the purchase price entirely on the budget end of the spectrum.
If Steve Jobs could come back yet again, he would eliminate half of the product offerings probably. Apple is going back to the days of having too many variations of products.
More whining from you as usual.No 128GB.
Same giant bezels.
Wish Apple would give us a flagship 4" iPhone. Hanging onto my iPhone 5 for another year.
This keynote...protruding camera on the iPad? Ridiculous. Starting with 15 minutes of research and health was worthy, but incredibly boring. Only Phil Schiller exuded any appreciable enthusiasm. The Apple Watch is obviously selling badly; no sales figures and a 20% price drop. The iPad has been increased in price by 20%; just what is needed in the face of 8 quarters of plummeting sales. Shares are down post-keynote.
I find the death of Apple painful to watch. All good things come to an end, I guess. I'm grateful to Steve Jobs and all who worked with him for his amazing products.
This phone is amazing, especially for the price. How can there be a 250 dollar difference between this and the 6s?
I'll only buy it if it has 2GB of RAM.
1GB and I'll stick with my iPhone 5, as it's fine for my needs, but I'm sick of apps/browser tabs reloading.

No they aren't, but where do you see it was axed?

Wonder if this a sign of the demise of the numbering system for iPhone models, finally.
I could see Apple shifting to iPhone Pro, iPhone, and iPhone SE as the naming system going forward...
