Las cuatro pulgadas parecen no querer pasar de moda, al menos mientras Apple así lo haya decidido. Y es que el pasado 21 de marzo se hizo la presentación oficial del iPhone SE , un dispositivo comedido, de lo que hoy día se considera "pequeño", con el diseño archiconocido del iPhone 5s pero...

Apple iPhone SE review – too small for most people

The iPhone SE is one of the best of the very few small phones still available. It would be a significant downgrade from an iPhone 6, isn't a quantum leap over the iPhone 5S and should only really be considered if size is the overriding factor.
Pros:
  • one-day battery
  • good rear camera
  • decent screen
  • easy to hold
  • easy to fit in a pocket
  • fits in existing iPhone 5 accessories
Cons:
  • 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

Apple iPhone SE in-depth review - Small & mighty

It totally is. If you have a iPhone 5 lying around, check to see the dimensions- Apple have whipped out the shell of their older flagship, made the tiniest of tweaks and presented beefed up specs in the retro-themed body.
Pros:
  • Perfect for using one-handed
  • Incredible performance
  • Great camera
  • Price
  • good battery life
Cons:
  • Might be too small
  • no 3D touch

Sure, the Apple iPhone SE looks out of place, but that's more indicative of how comfortable we've grown to bigger handsets, even if their size has impacted on ease of use for many users.
Pros:
  • Powerful and compact
  • Excellent main camera
  • Premium design
  • Affordable

Apple iPhone SE

The iPhone SE is a flagship in every right, but a screen size of four inches is too hindering today. Like all iPhone, the Rs. 39,000 price tag can seem overpriced, and is a big reason why the phone is tough to recommend today.
Pros:
  • Excellent performance
  • Best-in-class ergonomics
  • Crisp
  • sharp display
Cons:
  • 4-inch display is too restricted
  • Battery life is still rather low
  • Lags behind in low light photography

  • Great rear-facing camera with Live Photos and 4K Video

I really wanted to love the iPhone SE. From the moment it was announced I just knew it made sense. A compact iPhone with the best design the range has ever had, plus the very best performance and camera, should have made one hell of a handset.
Pros:
  • Great design
  • Well priced
  • Excellent camera
Cons:
  • Screen feels old
  • Slightly too small
  • 16GB minimum storage is disappointing
