Apple iPhone SE 2020

Apple finally did it. They brought back the iPhone SE, the smaller iPhone that so many people have been asking for (and reluctantly upgrading to newer bigger iPhones in the interim, unfortunately). 

Retaining some of the compact nature along with lower price tag people are obviously curious if the new SE is what they were hoping for all that time.

Well since the iPhone SE that I bought finally arrived let’s check it out and see if it has what you were looking for in this blog

Now if you’re not familiar, a blog on this channel is where I try to go through every single feature I possibly can on a new device so that you guys are better prepared should you be in the market to actually go buy one.

It comes in three colors. Black, white, and red which is part of Product(RED) a non-profit charity organization that usually supports AIDS research but a portion of the price when purchasing this model now goes to COVID-19 global fund. And frankly, the red just looks really good, too

The new iPhone SE has a 4.7” 16:9 aspect ratio 1334 x 750 resolution IPS LCD screen.

We have an advertised 1400:1 contrast ratio, DCI-P3 wide color, and a supposed 625-nits of max brightness.

Above that screen, we have a 7MP f2.2 aperture front-facing camera that looks like this compared to the next tiered iPhone the iPhone 11 along with some other devices.

Also, that front camera is capable of capturing video in 1080P at 30fps and it looks and the microphones sound like this.

Under that screen though is something I didn’t expect to see on a new iPhone: a fingerprint sensor.

Just like with older iPhones this how you will unlock the phone, confirm purchases in iTunes, enter in passwords on websites, etc. And it’s also your home button, you can double-tap it to get to multitasking and tap and hold to get Siri.
