I said this in another thread but will say it here as well... it will be called iPhone Air. You heard it here first!
Absolutely they created the 'iPhone' industry. Notice how everything today still looks like the first iPhone?
Credit where credit is due. The genius wasn't the hardware...it was the software.
It’s not about price, it’s about size and superior design.I honestly don’t see an se2 coming. Like what price market would that be targeted toward.
The SE hardware is 4 years old now. For smartphone tech that's pretty old, so I'm not surprised you don't see a lot.How are people gauging popularity? I've seen only one of these out in the wild with a coworker. Everyone else still has 6/7/8 and seeing last more X/XS starting to come around. Thats all though.
I mean 11/ pro maxThe SE hardware is 4 years old now. For smartphone tech that's pretty old, so I'm not surprised you don't see a lot.
I'm hoping the SE2 is slightly smaller than the current phones. I have an 8 and I don't want to go any bigger. This is about the biggest screen I would go for a phone.
I suspect a good small phone from ANY brand would get a lot of SE users jumping ship in a moment.
Crazy some people still think SE was attractive because of size. The 4.7" SE2 tells you unequivocally what Apple thinks based on their own sales numbers.
It's like pointing at the sun and saying it's dark.
Yes, Apple is making a grave "mistake" not keeping the 4-inch dead end form factor. 😆
No, the main selling point of the SE was price.Size was basically the entire selling point of the SE. But now it's more about the body size than screen size. Keeping the body about the same but updating the phone beyond 2014 specs would be an instant upgrade for many SE users. Myself included, and others I know who have deliberately stuck with this phone.
Because even as someone who jumped from Android just for the SE and recently bought a second one, entirely due to size, it always felt like a pretty crap phone to buy. The hardware was dated the day it came out, and simply being the cheapest iphone doesn't mean it was ever particularly great value.
I don't know why anyone would have ever chosen it over other options, except for a) size or b) cheap+iphone+uninterested in tech.
So if Apple was just wanting to keep those (b) customers they could just slap a new "budget" name on the iphone 8, and not waste any time designing a new model that will crush the faint hopes of all those (a) users and have them looking around for anything else on the market.
Proves how much no one really cares about 5G. Happy with my X, can’t justify the upgrade yet.
Oh, so, in one year, when Apple does include a 5G modem, its gonna be all of a sudden relevant to 99% of them; even when actual 5G coverage still won't be there?This is the definition of a false dichotomy. Why would or should people care about something that 99% of them are unable to use?
No, the main selling point of the SE was price.
