iPhone SE (2016) iPhone SE 2020 worth 50 Euro more than iPhone 11?

[AppleStart2013]

I'm in Ireland and one carrier is offering the iPhone SE for 199 Euro on a 40-Euro per month 24-month contract while the iPhone 11 is for 149 Euro on a 40-eur per month contract.

I was wondering if the iPhone SE 2020 is worth the 50 euro more? What upgrades are there on the SE over the 11?

The only benefit of SE over the 11 is smaller size and Touch ID. Everything else is worse.

If you can stomach the larger size of the 11, then get that.

I would say that the 11 overall is a superior handset.

the 11 is better, unless you really like the size of the SE.

Not trying to be dismissive, but if you do some simple-quick research, you can easily find out the differences between the iPhone SE and 11, there’s plenty of threads discussing that on this very site, I won’t answer the upgrades.

what it comes down to, is what you’re comfortable holding? If you’re manipulating the iPhone one-handed and that’s what you prefer, the SE can’t be rivaled. But if you really want something with a larger display, extended battery life, then obviously the iPhone 11 is the obvious choice. But it’s all about what you’re comfortable with in terms of actually holding/carrying.

Looks like they have a promo price on the 11 (which has been out for longer) versus the SE which is relatively new. The only advantages of the SE is the size (if you don't like larger handsets), TouchID (for those that dislike FaceID, and for that frequently find themselves wearing a mask these days) and the cheaper price (which doesn't apply in this case!). The (2020) SE is an 8 with an upgraded A13 chip and an extra GB of RAM.

That carrier’s deal makes no sense as the contract free price of iPhone SE bought directly from Apple is about 40% lower than that of iPhone 11. iPhone 11 has better cameras, more RAM and much better battery life. Its only “disadvantage” over SE is the size and weight. Try them both in your hand if you have a chance.
