The editors didn't like
The design of the phone isn't ‘iconic' – it's dated. There's no reason Apple couldn't have created a smaller version of the iPhone 6S other than saving money – while that cost has been passed onto the consumer
It would have been amazing to see a new phon
Older giant-bezel design and limited screen size are love-it-or-hate-it. Hardware hasn't changed since its 2016 debut
Needs a new design
No 32GB option
No expandable storage
No 3D Touch
Screen still low res
Front cam still 1.2MP
Contrast could be better
Audio lacks in dynamics and subtlety
Expensive
It's a fingerprint magnet
Not as enticing as the S7 Edge
Very small screen
Edges are hard on hands
Looks like an iPhone 5 or 5S
Selfie camera isn't great
No expandable storage or removable battery
Design is looking a bit old these days
Display isn't great
Might be a bit pricy for some
16GB model is pointless
Average screen
Poor front-facing camera
No 3D Touch or other exciting flagship features
First generation Touch ID
Same frontfacing camera as iPhone 5s
Only 1.2MP front camera
Average battery life
Might be too small
No 3D touch
Not a new design
Small size won't be for all - can feel crammed on screen

A winning combination of restraint and power The best iPhone SE—the 64GB model—costs about $500. In most ways, it's just as good as the iPhone 6s, which comes in at $749 for the 64GB variant. Yes, you're getting a much smaller phone with a design fr...
