Apple iPhone SE

Advantages: 1. The convenient case which does not slip out of hands, does not demand covers and protective glasses on the screen at all.
2. In terms of functions, nothing is worse than 6s - I do not do selfies, but I take photos on a DSLR. Therefore, I have enough memory with an excess.
3. With iOS 10, it worked great. Even surprised. If possible, do not upgrade to 11 - some decorations, none useful for me.
4. In 6s, the Citigid navigator was silent while simultaneously connecting to the car's bluetooth, it was necessary to turn off-turn on the bluetooth after launching the navigator. And then everything worked)))

Disadvantages: 1. The screen size is too small. Some applications are designed for a larger screen, as a result, their fonts either crawl where they don’t need or are quite small.
2. The Internet (cellular data, 3g, Megaphone operator) at the dacha was caught worse than the 6s. If on 6s with a creak, but everything was, then it's easier not to start and do other things.
3. After the update on iOS 11, glitches started, and they have not yet seen the end. Glitches - this is when the function works first, but suddenly stops after a week, or stops after the next update, which seems to be done to fix bugs. I have these:
- SMS comes quietly: silently and without turning on the screen
- photos are not uploaded to the cloud
- Mac does not see the phone to connect over the cellular network (not to be confused with the modem mode, on the phone it is usually enough to turn on the cellular data and the Mac immediately sees it)
- Mac does not catch calls from the phone.
- Notifications from social networks do not come. In the notification settings, sometimes there is even no “notification tolerance” in principle. (This item is still unbeatable)
It is permanent. Feeling lost "resetting all the settings" and setting the same again. There were also temporary ones, from which the treatment via cable and itunes helped: saving a backup copy, updating as to a new device, loading from a saved copy. Such:
- in the SMS senders are not tied to the address book
- the Citigid navigator was silent while simultaneously connecting to the car's bluetooth, it was necessary to turn off-turn on the bluetooth after launching the navigator.

Comment: It was bought for 3 months in exchange for the broken 6s, with the prospect of changing to a novelty and handing it over to the child.
It’s hard to understand exactly what’s buggy - Mac or phone when they work in pairs, but the conclusion is that iOS is far from perfect, for the last 2 months since the release of version 11, it called technical support 10 times - and not one of the problems was resolved to its full extinction.
It's not about the device, but about iOS, in my opinion.
The next update decided to immediately install via cable and itunes, but there were still glitches anyway.

Advantages: There will not be many advantages, as well as minuses. I compare with 5S, because I think this is logical. After all, Apple did it to replace the 5S with a good iron from 6S. But I'll start with the following:

1. First, the iron from 6S, which is pretty good.
2. Apple Pay. Very convenient, on 5S this was not, although I would like to.
3. The camera has become better compared to 5S (12MP vs. 8MP).
4. Became really much faster. Before that was 5S. For example, Twitter is one of the longest-running applications, on 5S I started in seconds 4, on SE for 1.5-2.
5. TouchID works better, on 5S it did not work the first time. Of the 10 attempts about 6 successful. On SE from 10 attempts 8-9 successful.
6. As Apple promised, the battery will last longer, and it really is. It is quietly enough for the whole day without recharging, considering that in 12 hours approximately 3 hours I spend on the Internet with 3G, 2 hours of Wi-Fi, it takes about 2 hours to music. For calls, it takes 20 minutes a day. Total 7:20 hours and plus, by the end of the day, 40% of the charge remains, which is simply unbelievable. 5S with the same load left me 15-20% by the end of the day with a half-hour recharge at work. True 5S I wore 2 years, but I do not remember that at the time of purchase, he left 40%, maybe about 30% without recharging.
7. Naturally, the plus will be the design for fans of imperishable classics.
8. iSight, Live Photo and other camera bells and whistles I think you should not be considered a plus, but if there is something good, better than not at all.

Disadvantages: 1. There is no 3D Touch like on 6S, but this minus seems to be not a minus either. At least rarely seen 6S owners who use 3D Touch. But if Apple is porting 6S in the case of 5S, then it would probably be worth it to finish it. Maybe it depends on the display of the SE and 6S, I do not know.
No more minuses found.

Comment: For those who are now 5S and are going to switch to SE, get ready, the effect of "WOW" will not be when you open the box, and the feeling that you are wearing a different model of Apple phone also will not. The sensations are all the same, it seems that you still carry with you that very old man 5S, which you had. Maybe this is good or bad, I do not know. Yes, iron is more powerful, new functions appeared in the camera, the most convenient Apple Pay, but still it does not outweigh your 5S habits. Moreover, if you have copies of iCloud backups in your AppleID, then when you enter a new phone, everything will be exactly the same as it was before: photos, location of icons, settings, music, numbers, SMS, even entries to Vkontakte applications, Twitter, Instagram, then this is really your 5S)).

I was not going to take it, but I was forced by circumstances, I didn’t even look at shovels in the direction of Apple, everything that starts with the iPhone 6 and beyond. I wanted a familiar body with an updated iron component.
I advise you to take it to those who did not use Apple phones and do not like shovels. I also advise those who need Apple Pay, a really convenient thing, how many times I forgot the card at home and it was needed at the most inopportune moment, and I had to go home for 40 minutes to take a card and go back, but everything is smooth with Apple Pay .
If you have 5S, then think before going, weigh all the pros and cons, maybe you need a better camera? or Apple Pay? maybe you need because of the games and you want something more powerful. If at least 1-2 points are typed, then take it, and I don’t see any sense in SE. 5S has the first 64-bit processor in the line of Apple phones, which means Apple support and all new versions of iOS will be at least another year 4. And 5S will last for a long, long time.

In general, SE is an excellent solution for people with different needs.But once again I will say to the owners of 5S, think before you take it, think carefully about all the nuances. I wish you a good shopping!

Advantages: Everything works fine pah pah, I have 128 GB of smart, I use almost 2 months, it charges quickly, the battery is very happy.

Disadvantages: There are no flaws.

Comment: Shustrenky camera suits, there is a front flash very happy, after the android it's just a rocket, I used Samsung with 2, htc, lenovo, Nokia, but this is really a torpedo

Advantages: OS speed, design, usability

Disadvantages: not

Comment: bought in January, previously used android. impressed with its speed, does not hang at all, as it was with the previous phone. The phone is very pleasant to hold, harmonious, beautiful. I really liked the design. Very pleased with the quality of photos, which can not be compared with other phones. I also liked the sound quality of the music.

Advantages: Design, OS speed, powerful iron, nice colors and the presence of a 128Gb model

Disadvantages: Everything suits, but nevertheless, the battery is typical for Apple (with active use no more than 12 hours), an overestimated price in the absence of 3D Touch.

Comment: Excellent phone for the next 3 years. Stylish, powerful, comfortable.

Advantages: Completely perfect

Disadvantages: Not

Comment: There was always an android.
This is the best in my life ...
Somewhere around 6s
Took 128gig yesterday. 30 to this beautiful phone is not a pity. Flies! I want to leave a long time with him.
Couple photo

Advantages: Design, display, speed, reliability, brand, photo quality, slow motion, hi-siri function, fingerprint scanner

Disadvantages: Quickly sits charging 1% lasts 4-5 minutes. , inconvenient keyboard, often promayvaet on the keys.

Comment: The phone was bought 5 days ago (price 25 thousand), faced with the problem of holding a charge. With active use of the device, it must be charged 2 times a day. While writing this text, I had to constantly correct the words, because I missed the keyboard. Despite the fact that my fingers are small;), the back panel is brand, buy a case along with the phone. My score is 9/10. I recommend this phone to you)
PS wanted to send some pictures, but something went wrong. Who has a desire, you can write to me in the mail, I will send you a couple as an example. I repeat, the quality of the fire!

Advantages: High-speed, autonomous work, compactness, well-proven design.

Disadvantages: At 9.3.5 I began to notice periodic glitches: the music did not start through a general search, it was respring several times and, what was most surprised, lost the network a couple of times, then wrote that the SIM card was not inserted. I had to take it out 0_o. There is an opinion that the Apple does not ambiguously hint that it would be time to upgrade to the top ten

Comment: In general, this model has no competitor in this form factor. For now the trend is developing towards the shovels.
I never regretted taking this particular model. Compared to 5c, it works significantly faster and holds battery much longer (average use is enough for the whole day). Somehow on one percent it was enough for 1 call and an hour of listening to music in air mode.

Advantages: I first bought something "apple" and I am delighted! How everything is beautiful, ergonomic, comfortable! The phone is pleasant to hold in your hands, it is pleasant to use. The charge keeps a day and a half or two, but I'm not too active user. The quality of the photo is incomparable with other devices that I had before. Reproduces music as well.

Disadvantages: The front camera is really weak, but I'm not a fan of selfies, and if you take pictures in a bright place, this is not critical at all. The video in a darkened room is super dark for some reason, nothing is visible (there is no such problem with the photos).Well, I, like everyone who is too lazy to pay for any service, suffer with iCloud volume and transferring photos / audio through iTunes.

Comment: I’m happy! I’ll say right away for those who have only this phone - 16GB is very small. I still have a tablet, I keep all the main content there, I try to keep the phone at least, and still half of the memory for a month is already taken (
I have always been very skeptical of Apple products, and the price is too high, but damn it, now I don’t regret a bit of money spent!
