iPhone SE 2020: A powerful new smartphone in a popular design

The 2020 iPhone SE is lightweight, cheap and also future-proofed.

This is the phone to get if you just want a new iPhone, and also one that will last you a few years, but don’t want to pay a lot for it. 

Above all iPhone SE 2020 will offer you: there’s a good camera, enough power, a great App Store to plunder, and a lighter-weight design than the current crop of iPhone 11 models. Battery life but could be better, the screen tech is starting to age, and some upgraders will miss the headphone jack; but overall, the smart improvements make this – for the price – one of the best iPhones Apple has ever made.

The two most important features of iPhone SE is: LIGHTWEIGHT and LOW COST

The iPhone SE 2020 is built around one goal: to create a new iPhone for less money than ever, and it achieves that well. For only just $399 / £419 / AU$749, you can have a brand-new handset from Apple – it’s one of the best iPhones ever created and you can now get your hands on one.

A13 Bionic — The Fastest Chip in a Smartphone

Furthermore Introduced with iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Pro, A13 Bionic is the fastest chip ever in a smartphone and provides unparalleled performance for every task iPhone SE handles. Perfect for photography, gaming, and augmented reality experiences, A13 Bionic makes every action feel fluid.

Also,A13 Bionic was built with a focus on machine learning, with a dedicated 8-core Neural Engine capable of 5 trillion operations per second, two Machine Learning Accelerators on the CPU and a new Machine Learning Controller to balance performance and efficiency. Together, A13 Bionic and iOS 13 enable new intelligent apps that make use of machine learning and Core ML.

Built for efficiency, the A13 Bionic also enables great battery life for iPhone SE. iPhone SE is wireless-charging capable with Qi-certified chargers and also supports fast-charging, giving customers up to 50 percent charge in just 30 minutes. Lightning-fast download speeds are available with Wi-Fi 6 and Gigabit-class LTE.3 Dual SIM with eSIM provides the flexibility for users to have two separate phone numbers on a single device while traveling abroad or for use as a business line.4

iPhone SE price and release date

The iPhone SE 2020 release date was Friday, April 24 (with pre-orders going live the week before) so you can now get your hands on Apple’s latest handset if you’re hankering for some low-price iPhone action.

The iPhone SE price starts at $399 / £419 / AU$749 / Rs 42,500, meaning it’s the same price in the US as the original iPhone SE (but higher in the UK). The base model comes with 64GB of storage, with 128GB and 256GB models also available for a higher price (which you can see listed below).

In the US, Apple is offering the new iPhone SE at $16.62/month through its financing plan.You’re upgrading from the original iPhone SE or iPhone 6, you’ll only get $30 toward the full price of the device.

iPhone SE (2020) based on iOS 13 and packs 64GB of inbuilt storage. The iPhone SE (2020) is a dual-SIM (GSM and GSM) smartphone that accepts Nano-SIM and eSIM cards.

The iPhone SE has exactly the same design and display as the iPhone 8 from 2017.

In that time the flagship iPhone range has moved to an all-screen design – barring a notch at the top, you’re presented with barely any bezels – while with more premium aluminum inside, things have got a little weightier in recent years.

New Camera Experience Powered by A13 Bionic

iPhone SE features the best single-camera system ever in an iPhone with a 12-megapixel f/1.8 aperture Wide camera and uses the image signal processor and Neural Engine of A13 Bionic to unlock even more benefits of computational photography, including Portrait Mode, all six Portrait Lighting effects and Depth Control.5 Using machine learning and monocular depth estimation, iPhone SE also takes stunning Portraits with the front camera. Next-generation Smart HDR comes to iPhone SE, intelligently re-lighting recognized subjects in a frame for more natural-looking images with stunning highlight and shadow details.

Videos are even more immersive with stereo audio recording and cinematic video stabilization on the front and rear cameras. The rear camera supports high-quality video capture at 4K up to 60fps, and extended dynamic range comes to iPhone SE for more highlight details up to 30fps. Customers can also take advantage of QuickTake video on the front and rear cameras, allowing video recording without switching out of Photo mode.

With advanced Camera and Photo features in iOS 13, native editing is even more comprehensive.

iPhone SE with iOS 13 delivers a seamless experience with software and hardware integration, unlike any other smartphone.
