Apple recently announced its latest iPhone SE 2020 that looks more like the iPhone 8, but many people will ask is it iPhone SE worth buying?
Compared with iPhone 6s, iPhone 7, iPhone 8, A13 chip can be said to be the only selling point of this iPhone SE 2020. Some pundits are saying that Apple is forcing people to buy its A13 bionic chip packed into an older phone! For many people, what is needed is not a small-screen mobile phone, but a low-cost mobile phone equipped with a top-level SoC.
Many people’s iPhone 6s have been used for four years and are still running smoothly. For buyers, buying a new iPhone SE 2020 all they will get is a change the chip of the mobile phone at the lowest cost to use for a few more years. For Apple, it is to clean up the iPhone 8 inventory and those users who were still using flagship phones many years ago, and try to quickly occupy the mid-range mobile phone market. In February, Apple made strides in Nigeria through opening for the role of country leader in Nigeria to oversee sales and business development. So it would be no surprise that Apple wants to expands to other parts of the continent apart from South Africa where more affordable devices are desirable.
Apart from the chip, what is the difference between iPhone SE and iPhone 8? 3D Touch is cancelled, the entire phone is like an upgraded version of the old model. The biggest hardware difference is that the Apple logo at the back is now more centered on the iPhone SE 2020 than on the iPhone 8.
In short, for buyers, if you buy a new iPhone SE 2020 and want to use it for another two or three years, the performance is definitely sufficient. However, it is not yet known how fast 5G will be popularized. If 5G becomes widespread in a year or two, this iPhone SE may not keep up with the trend and become a device with a slow network speed and poor signal (compared to 5G).
In addition, the main selling point of the iPhone SE is different from the current mobile phone development trends (full screen, long battery life, fast charging, and pursuit of camera functions). Of course, for Apple, the iPhone SE series may only be a product strategy temporarily launched to seize the mid-end market.
To sum it up, the A13 processor, iOS system, and 4.7-inch screen are the biggest selling points of the iPhone SE 2020 version. If you are a light mobile phone user, then iPhone SE 2020 version is worth buying. If there is a demand for playing games, long battery life, and taking pictures, you may have to look elsewhere.
