Sounds like a good deal. Reviews for both devices have been out for months, so what areas specifically are you looking forward for a comparison?
Macrumors also has plenty of rumours on the 12, wether or not the rumoured features are interesting enough to wait is really your preference.
I recommend you visit a shop or buy these devices outright from a good seller like Apple where you get two weeks to try them out fully, then decide what you’ll keep, but that may not be possible with that specific deal.

It all depends on your budget and your needs. The new SE and the iPhone 11 are fine devices.
If you want a slightly smaller form factor than the aforementioned with a full screen, wait for the iPhone 12.
If you don’t care, either the SE or iPhone 11 should suffice for basic user needs.

Honestly unless you have to have the latest and greatest then you could jump on the 11 right now especially at that price.
I’m not sure as to the deciding factors, but one thing to factor is the 5.4” iPhone 12. With its rumored size and price it could be worth on.
however, if we’re being honest at any point in a new iPhone release cycle we could always say wait until iPhone (number here) and it will be better. So ??♂️??♂️??♂️... I’m not sure i was a lot of help lol.

This is certainly good advice. We are pretty certain the 11 would drop by $100 going off what Apple has done in the past.
My only question is the exact price OP would be givingfor the 11 right now through the carrier promotion. If it is lower than the possible $599 Apple would be selling it for than OP could go ahead and get it at a better price.
Still, good advice nonetheless!
I promise, there will be a thread like yours every week until the keynote from this point forward asking “Should I wait”. I don’t mean to be unnecessarily sarcastic, but the reason I say that, it’s just better to wait at this point. Otherwise if you were to buy something now, then you just will regret it later on that you didn’t wait the extra XYZ weeks to see the latest device.
After nearly 3 years my iPhone X finally gave up the ghost over the weekend, partly related to dropping it and smashing the back some time ago, so currently without a phone. I've picked up an SE to tide me over till the new phones and will then sell and pick up the 5.4 inch iPhone 12 on contract. Strange going back to the home button but will be fine for a month or so.
Tried the iPhone 11 in the store and it's just too big.
