The new iPhone SE looks like a really solid phone. The only thing it doesn't really have compared to the 13 is the better camera and the larger form factor / fancier screen tech. And weirdly there doesn't seem to be much in the Android world at that price point anymore.

It's a shame it's still using the 2014 design. I don't really care about the camera or the screen tech, but the form factor looks actively retro compared to every other smartphone out there (and every other Apple product (okay except the cheapest plain iPad)).

#35Will be interesting to see what improvements will be made to M2, given its most likely going to be on the same process node as M1 (TSMC 5nm). This event probably won't tell us much, I am sure all the graphs will be relative scaled with cherry picked benchmarks, making comparison difficult.
Why is it likely going to be on 5nm? 3nm has been in risk production for months now, which would line up with enough lead time for full production for normal Mac refreshes early fall.

I have the 2nd gen and it's been pretty great. I think they should last for at least 5 years.

#37It's too bad the 13/14 mini is going away. That being said I think the SE should be plenty for me. Edit : To phrase this a bit better, it's too bad the "mini" model doesn't seem likely to continue into past the 13 mini.
The iPhone 14 mini doesn’t exist so I’m not sure how it can be “going away”. As for the 13 mini, where’s your source that says it’s being discontinued as opposed to the ‘mini’ line just simply not continuing after the 13’s lifespan?

#39The Apple brand is invaluable. You literally can't attach a value to it.
