Not as tiny as the Apple watch. Plenty big for a large number of people, obviously!Guess Apple didn't expect people to buy a cheaper iPhone rather than the expensive flagship model even if it has a tiny display

Apple stock is in absolute freecall right now. 7% wiped out.
It means that Apple investors just got about $40B poorer.what does this 7% mean?
gotch ya! thanksIt means that Apple investors just got about $40B poorer.
Given that no one else has had success with 4" phones ever since big phones became the rage, I'm not surprised that Tim Cook underestimated demand for the SE.
True, but maybe people like the form factor of it as well?Don't you think that price has a lot to do with it?
Well, that's kind of the point, isn't it? Apple under Cook is a follower, not a leader. "Big phones are the new hot thing? We can do that too!"
actually it doesn't make any sense economically to purposefully control supply in exchange for demand. you may gain more interest but you lose a lot of the pricing power. it's smarter to price better to control demand than to control demand through limited supply.Such statements mean very little . When you control supply, you can create an illusion of demand.
They played the same games with the Apple Watch , anytime you ask an apple executive how something is performing, the responce very positive.
Next quarter results will tell the truth.
If the 7 comes without a headphone jack, I might pick up the SE. Done with paying premium pricing to have features removed needing an adapter....
The original 3G was awful to hold……..Keep in mind that the iPhone 5 was probably the final iPhone design that Steve Jobs held and approved.
Everytime I hold my 6s I almost drop the slippery little fish, but my wife's SE is perfect to hold.
sure, it's much better for tim cook to mislead shareholders than to make money off that extra 500 people.This is meaningless until they release the sales numbers. Demand could be high because Apple only made 1,000 phones and maybe only 1,500 people want the SE, thus creating the illusion of BIG numbers.
Well that is because no one else have a "high" end 4" phone, all the smaller Android phone are really cheap stuff with specs way lower than they would need and most of the time never recieve an update, no wonder they do not sell...Given that no one else has had success with 4" phones ever since big phones became the rage, I'm not surprised that Tim Cook underestimated demand for the SE.
Gotta say, Rose Gold looks beautiful on the SE, it really stands out.
Only Tim Cook is surprised. The SE is currently the only iPhone in their line up that makes sense, it would have been surprising for it not to sell well. Hopefully they'll release an iPhone 7 of that size.
So are we holding a bake sale for them?It means that Apple investors just got about $40B poorer.
Let's put this straight: these weren't reports, these were claims, based on some pencil pusher's opinion.Since its release, the iPhone SE has been in short supply despite reports of lackluster sales.
I really want to get rid of my 6s+ and get a SE. I love the feel of it a lot more than the slippery 6, and looking at the specs it seems to have better battery life than the regular 6s, which is my primary reason for getting the 6s+.
Let's rewind and assess what you just wrote - you have a BRAND NEW, VERY powerful phone, and yet, already, you are looking to the next iPhone to replace it only after a FEW MONTHS? Are you bored easily? That superb handset would be usable for 3-5 YEARS.
People make me laugh - enjoy LIFE, and stop harping on about the next gadget release - it's saddening and demonstrates a LOT about modern, fickle consumerism - do you want to be an example of that?
Man, I'd be delighted with even a 5S, and can't afford even that. Be grateful for what you have - hold onto it and get to know it, some people don't have the luxuries we do.
One of my favorite tunes that could be on loop all day.iPhone model numbers to music (it often seems they increment FASTER than this!):
Should have launched it with the 6s...
I would have bought the SE instead of this stupid ping pong paddle!
That industry could change. Remember the Phone industry before the iPhone? Carriers ruled the world, and device money was made on volume....and people still think Apple is going to make a car—in an industry with razor-thin margins.
