For the 5/SE crew.

I'm trying to decide whether to trade my SE for an XR. I really like a small phone but it's getting a little long in the tooth.

How would you describe the black color? Some have posted that it's more like the space gray than black. Glossy? Matte?

Placed my 8 next to “black” XR. Aluminum bands are black, compared to my grey bands, but I couldn’t see a difference in the glass color from my space gray. JMO.
 
sounds nice.

very glossy I'd guess because of the glass?
Pretty much. If you like one, I think you’d have to like the other equally.

I liked every color, some more than others. Product Red, by far the best to me though.

The depth-of-field software was amazing to me on the XR. Wish Apple would allow it on the iPhone 8. The XR is larger than I want to use, but pretty awesome.

I must have missed the part of the keynote where they said the XR was the SE replacement. :)

I went from the middle child to the oldest that wasn't even part of the family.

The SE physical size with an edge to edge screen would be AMAAAAAZING

I concur.

Yup. Newer devices are too large.

I was against 4.7 when it first came out like no other but something about this combo got me.
