I like it, I wanted a new small one, may well buy. Phone memory is not that important, everything should be in the cloud and synced to a main device.

That's all well and good if you haven't got around 50gb of music on your phone, as I have
![]() I wouldn't be surprised if the pricing was like for like. With the pricing, shame it wasn't: 32GB - 329 64GB - 399 Are the SE prices the same as the 5S have been? |

I've just checked my iPad Air 2 for a software update and iOS 9.3 is ready for download and installation. Will be installing once it's finished charging.

Music used to be the thing that I needed storage for, but that's far less of an issue using Apple Music.

It probably would be for me as well, but i don't like paying to listen to music i already own
![]() The way I look at it, is £10 a month is way cheaper than buying a few albums a month. And its a great way to listen to lots of stuff I probably wouldn't go out to buy. But if the music you already own is all the music you really listen to, and you would hardly be buying much new stuff, then obviously that £10 a month probably isn't worth it. |

There is no point in being disappointed about the SE. For some people, it will be perfect. Me for one. I may still wait to see what the 7 comes out as but for me, it's a 4/5 style phone with a superb camera and all the bits and functionality I need. I personally don't much like these slither type phones like the one I have now. I liked my 4S more than any other phone I've had. Solid and useful. The fact I can get that again but with LTE, VoLTE , Apple pay, wifi calling etc. etc. and an even better camera is a winner. The screen is not really the most important part for me as I struggle to use even my ZTE slab for anything serious. Always end up on the iPad or PC for browsing. That's just me but it will also be a lot of other people.
I work most of the time outside with the phone in my pocket. These big, flat slabs are never comfortable in that environment. I very much like it and I think I might get one. I think it will be a winner. Updates a classic design that many are comfortable with and adds in all the new power features we are going to need. |

But then I do find i jump back to the local content a fair amount as well, in part due to having a bit of a spotty data reception in the area i live in. |

I did like sat he Nexus 7 2012 modal by it stared playing up about 7 or 8 months ago and a factory reset only seemed to solved the problem for a few weeks. I replaced it with an mini 4 at the beginning of the year.
I had been thinking of replacing my Nexus 4 that I had for well over 2 year with a Nexus 5x or 5 plus as my Nexus 4 in the last few months was starting to have a few minor problems but have replaced it with an IPhone 5s that someone gave me for less than half price. After they upgraded to the IPhone 6s and knew I had been looking for a new phone. Google seem to have never really replace the Nexus 7 with anything new wihich is a shame and I don't think the Nexus 5x or 5 plus has sold as well as they have hoped. I seem to now know more people in the last 6 months that now have something made by Apple than I do Android and it never used to be that way. I also know some pepole that now have a smartwatch of some kind or a Fitbit after they got them at Christmas. Darren |

It's good that Apple has done what Sony did for years, giving a smaller screen version of a flagship and without cutting specs (bar screen resolution). Shame Sony doesn't appear to want to do that going forward! |

Why wait for the 7 then? It's clearly going to keep a large screen so by your own admission, the SE is the one for you.

If we ignore the fact that 'I think you will find...' is the most patronising expression in the English language, I think you will find that saying that Android "shapes what Apple do' on the basis of a list of things that Android had first, while ignoring anything that iOS had first kinda makes that a pretty ridiculous general claim to make.

The SE isn't a bad phone. Way better than the 5C. Whilst im not keen on such a small screen it will appeal to those people who prefer smaller phones. The 16GB is a false economy unless you don't want to do anything much with it. Really they should have offered 32GB as the bare minimum but that aside it should sell quite well. Proper VoLTE support out the box and improved LTE band support are good. I suspect it will sell quite well.

Once you've had the 6 you can't go back.
The phone would look tiny. I'm only interested in the iPhone 7 nowt else If Apple are to go back to anything I'd like it to be the slightly curved back like on the iPhone 3. Fitted into the hand lovely. I currently have a 128gb iPhone 6. Love it. Had it 2 years this sept. |

Personally...
iPod 80GB Classic holds my music and connects to the car. I use a BlackBerry Classic & iPhone 5 daily, the new iPhone is perfect for me, I use an iPad on the train and don't listen to music on the move. New iPhone & iPad are perfect upgrades for people like me. |

Sony have had problems for some time, but they understood that people wanting a small screen didn't want a single core CPU running at 1MHz.
I think the idea of doing the SE is sound, although they could surely have done something with the design. I guess that's why Jony Ive didn't talk about the design today as even Apple couldn't big it up. And 16GB is crazy for the money and the rest of the specs. Clearly made to give a nice headline price but with almost everyone trading up. |

I was half thinking of getting a SE to replace my 5 but im not in any hurry. Still using my 3 year old Galaxy S4 as the daily workhorse and may get an LG G5. Catch you back here in September and have a good Summer

You just can't quite manage to say what you disagreed with - I guess we all know really you were just talking cobblers.

You don't even need to pay for Apple Music though. I don't, I just pay yearly for iTunes Match and all of my music is on iCloud then. That way I can easily get away with a 16Gb iPhone.
