The Newer, Older iPhone

With the summer upon us, the time has arrived when tech companies share and release their new products for purchase. Apple’s newest iPhone is the iPhone SE. This has a lot of people up in arms and rightfully so.
The iPhone SE looks exactly like the iPhone 5 and iPhone 5s. So why did they release something that looks exactly like a product that they released almost a whole year ago? To be honest, Apple is listening to some of its customers. Not everyone wants the bigger screened phones that many people have switched to. Most people like to have the smaller phone,as you can do everything with one hand. However, they want their device to have all of the awesome specs that are in newer phones.

The iPhone SE has almost all of the specs that are in the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s plus. It has the A9 core processor, which is the fastest that Apple has released. It has the same back camera which can shoot video in 4K. One of the cool things that Apple did for this phone was put one of the strongest cameras on the market in one of its smallest phones.
However, the new iPhone SE has some of the older specs from the iPhone 5. The screen size and pixels are the same which can throw some people off. People are expecting a phone with a different screen and a clearer screen.

The iPhone SE starts at $399 and comes in four different colors. Additionally, it comes with either a 16GB or 64GB storage. So this is my opinion, if you have the iPhone 6 or iPhone 6s, don’t get this phone. But if you do have an iPhone 5 or iPhone 5s and don’t want to change sizes, then this is the phone for you. It has everything that you need, plus some nice features that could make you love your phone more. The iPhone SE is not a phone for everyone, but it is for some people, and those are the people Apple is going for.
