giant phones are retarded. this is pretty much perfect for me.

Yep, my wife just bought a 5s because she hates big phones.

Nothing wrong with choice.

Also "it's twice as powerful as a phone 3 years ago.. haha lame"..... are you kidding me? Do you fucking morons have any idea how difficult processor design is?

To be fair, having worked at Apple when Steve was still alive, I swear he would have loved this idea. Steve was always big on selling the exact same product in different form factors for maximum profit.

The video was funny, but when I saw this phone announced, I said right away that this is the perfect phone for me. I still have an iPhone 5, and I love it. This new SE is the right size, and has the same tech specs as the 6s (for the most part). Why not?! Im excited about it.

It's one of those rare cases where I think it's fair to say that Apple is offering something that is good value.

$400 if you don't plan to use a lot of apps / load music, movies etc on it, for the 16GB version outright is a pretty good deal. The A9 processor tops many benchmarks against top of the line Android phones. That plus 2GB RAM puts it on par with the 6s/Plus. The resolution is fine for the screen size, since the DPI is above 300.

If you are fine with or prefer a smaller screen and want the iOS app store, it really is a fair deal. Yes, something like the Xiaomi Mi 5 still blows it away on the Android side, but if you exclude Xiaomi, I think it's very competitive with the more mainstream Samsung / LG / Sony competition which will not include a top tier processor at this price range.

The announcer sounds like a total douche (is that term pc anymore?). I want to see him carrying around the 13" phone he deserves.
