Apple has updated the little iPhone SE for 2020, and even an Android fan has to see that it's a great phone at an even greater price of $399 for the base model. It's essentially an iPhone 8 with one big difference: it has Apple's A13 Bionic chip buried inside. And that's a big deal for a number of reasons. --- https://imgur.com/bbRWLI8 https:/i.imgur.com/S1m3po4.jpg https://imgur.com/A0BErSV https://imgur.com/7fCcfko ... Copied to Clipboard!

I expect that some people are going to tell me about single thread versus multi-threaded performance and how the A13 GPU isn't that great or how iPhones have much lower resolution screens so the chips don't have to work as hard. All this is true, So its faster for refreshing your browser, but not in actual benchmarks? --- "History Is Much Like An Endless Waltz.

Great phone for Apple users on a budget. It will outlast any android phone on the market at the same price point given Apple's reputation for giving their devices reliable updates over the years.
However I don't consider $400 budget oriented, at least not for me. The phone is too small now that I've begun to get used to larger phones and the bezels are ugly in 2020. I'm still much happier with an android flagship that is dated by a year or two and ranging a cut above $100 for my budget option. That still doesn't take away from the fact that for Apple users this is a great option. If you want/need iOS but don't want to drop a grand it doesn't get better than this IMO. The real story isn't how fast it is but how the latest chip implies a greater support window. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

Oh look, someone who gets it perfectly The 6S is over 4 years old and still runs like a charm. Thats why youd want a better CPU, especially if you dont buy phones that often Quality will always be greater than quantity with smartphones. Do you think anyone was buying a Galaxy S4 back in the day for the fucking motion-based navigation lol The SE is the perfect backup phone and Im considering getting one to keep around --- Sometimes I say things and I'm not voice acting. ...

No one looking for a cheap iPhone gives a crap about the CPU. People will buy the SE because it's relatively affordable, has Touch ID, and it has a smaller form factor. The A13 is nice, but if you already have an 8, this SE doesn't really offer anything new. If you have an OG SE, then you might even be a little miffed that this 2G version is bigger.
There's just some curious omissions that make me scratch my head such as keeping the battery capacity the same as the 8 and the lack of a night mode for the camera. --- When it is obvious that the goals cannot be reached, don't adjust the goals, adjust the action steps. - Confucius ...

Verizon and AT&T are already offering it for $200 if you upgrade.
No bill credits or anything. You get the phone and you can immediately pay off the $200 and cancel your account if you want. Absolute fucking steal, especially once it's jailbroken. You can emulate the 3DS at pretty much 95-100% performance on the $1000 S20. This is more powerful than even that. This just means that Android will follow suit instead of giving us leftover garbage in their budget stuff. The 4 carriers are already offering bigger discounts on their Android stuff since the announcement. Also this should last people for several years longer than most Androids. It shound easily get up iOS 18 or 19. Meanwhile, my S9 didn't get Android 10 and doesn't support PS4 or Xbox controller support. 2 year old phone. So I don't know why people are downplaying this and going on about who cares about the CPU. As I've said before, this is a game changer. --- "Fear cuts deeper than swords." ... Copied to Clipboard!

What about the apple community makes anyone think they'd want nerd specs over screen resolution?Lol, do you not live in reality? Most dont care about resolution except nerds, the same way nerds care about the SoC. That's not the point here. This is going for $200-$400 and that's a hell of a lot better than a $1k iPhone 11 or a $1k Galaxy. And such a powerful SoC just insures that when apps get more intensive in the next 5 years, this will be there to handle it. Remember, the Note 10 is $1k and has a 1080p screen. It was released in 2019. The last major update it gets is in 2021. So something a fraction of the cost having around 720p is not even something people can bitch about without looking foolish. People are coming in here going "where is xyz?", but like said, most people don't care about shit outside social media and messaging/calls/video chat. This is a good thing for the nerds, because it's the casual audience that will get pulled away from way more expensive stuff and in turn, they'll be forced to lower prices and compete. Never understood how people get so insecure over Apple. It's the weirdest fucking thing ever and I'm pretty much Samsung only. --- "Fear cuts deeper than swords." ... Copied to Clipboard!

Because at a certain distance all phone screens essentially look the same density-wise, and ergo a higher resolution isnt really what ordinary people buy phones for Thats what the whole Retina display term is about, its based in facts as much as it is a marketing term Guarantee you show someone a Galaxy screen and an iPhone screen on the street and theyll look at both and go yep, its a screen alright lol --- Sometimes I say things and I'm not voice acting. ...

Android fans should be really excited about this. Even if you have no intention of ever buying an iPhone this is going to reshape the mid-range and even the high end market. When you are competing against an iPhone at the same price you need to be better than it because of Apples brand power. Now all of the mid-range phones will need to have Snapdragon 865s and cameras that are at least as good as a 1 year old flagship phone.
