Was thinking to get a SE but prices for a used 4 are about 100€ less. So i was looking for differences but except the storage of 32GB i cannot find a difference.
Both chips S4 vs S5 have same speed, right?
Are there any other differences?
 
The only feature that the S4 have and the SE doesn’t have is the ECG.

Other than that, the SE have the processor of the S5.
 
Yea I 'm keeping my S4 for at least another year. I don't really see the need to upgrade yet. Maybe next year.
 
as stated above, S4 has previous gen processor and ECG.
I would be careful on a used S4 as you have no visibility into the state of the battery, that would be of concern for me. At the same token, my S4 is almost 2 years old and I've probably lost ~ 20-25% of battery life, still at 30-40% at night before I put it on charger.
 
I have a 4, and didn't see enough reason to go to the 5, honestly I'm doubting I'll upgrade this year as either. I don't need the "features" the 6 has over the SE and I don't think the SE is enough of an upgrade, at least for my needs.

I think the SE is more of a 5.5.

IMO, going from a 4 to an SE would be downgrading.
I value the ability of my 4 to do ECGs

I realize I’m repeating myself from certain threads, but the S4 owners are not the targets for the S6 upgrade. Apple is pushing towards the Series 3 owners and below, the upgrade is given the new form factor. The SE is entirely intended to be the entry-level Model for those who are likely S2 owners, it wouldn’t make sense for a S4 owners to upgrade to the SE.
