Apple announced its latest iPhone SE by Wednesday 2020, aiming to woo limited-budget phone users who may not be able to squander on $ 1,000 phones like the iPhone 11 Pro or Galaxy S20. Like the 2016 sequel sleeper hit iPhone of the same nameThe iPhone SE starts at $ 399, £ 419, or AU $ 749. And with a 4.7-inch screen, it’s noticeably smaller than Apple’s current flagship line and iPhone XR.
With a four-year gap between the new iPhone SE and the previous one, Apple went to town with the updates. That includes wireless charging, better camera specs, and water resistance. (Unfortunately, for wired headphone users, the new iPhone SE doesn’t have a headphone jack.)
If you are looking for a new iPhone but want to save as much money as possible, the iPhone SE is your best option: you will save $ 300 directly compared to the price of the iPhone 11 (which costs $ 699, £ 729 or AU $ 1,199). But iPhone 11 does have some additional features that, if you can afford it, are useful. However, if you are weighing between the two phones, here is a tour of what you get with that extra $ 300.

Size and design: iPhone SE is small and compact
The most obvious difference between the two phones is that the iPhone 11 is larger. The iPhone 11 has a 6.1-inch screen, while the iPhone SE has a 4.7-inch screen. As you get more screen space for your apps and watch videos with the first one, the iPhone SE will appeal to users with its comfortable portability and compact grip.
Both iPhones have LCD screens, but the iPhone 11 has a “Liquid Retina HD display”, while the iPhone SE has “Retina HD”. These are brand terms that Apple uses to differentiate its display technology; However, all you have to know is that the iPhone 11’s screen is sharper, although they both have the same number of pixels per inch or pixel density.

Some users will also like the home button on the iPhone SE. Now that Apple is discontinuing the iPhone 8, the iPhone SE will be the only iPhone that Apple will sell with a physical home button. As well as being intuitive to use, it also means you don’t have to use swipe gestures to go back to the home screen or open recent apps. The home button will also house the device’s fingerprint reader to unlock the phone and authorize digital payments (what Apple calls Touch ID). However, the iPhone 11 uses facial mapping sensors on the front camera for biometric security (also known as Face ID).
The devices are IP certified for protection against water. But because iPhone 11 It is IP68 rated Compared to the IP67 rating of iPhone SE, it means iPhone 11 is slightly more durable against immersion (as it is certified to withstand a longer or deeper dive in water). On paper, an IP67 certification level means the iPhone SE can survive in up to one meter of water (3.3 feet) for approximately 30 minutes.
Lastly, the iPhone SE only comes in black, white, and red. The iPhone 11 also comes in those three colors, but if you want more options, you can also get it in pastel yellow, green, and purple.
Camera: iPhone 11 has the advantage
If you’re not necessarily a power user of the camera, the iPhone SE’s only 12-megapixel rear camera should be enough to post images to Instagram and record casual videos. But if you care about photography or want more tools at your disposal, the iPhone 11 has a noticeably better camera setup than the iPhone SE.

The iPhone 11, for example, it has a second wide angle camera. That means you can take panoramic photos or creative, more dramatic images at short distances. And while both iPhones have a 5x digital zoom that uses software to render close-up images, only the iPhone 11 has the hardware to perform 2x optical zoom, which doesn’t degrade image quality. The iPhone 11 also has Apple Low Light Camera Mode, Night Mode. Night mode reduces items such as digital artifacts, graininess, and motion blur to capture and brighten low-light images.
As for the front camera, the iPhone 11 not only has a better selfie camera because it has more megapixels (12 megapixels compared to the 7 megapixels of the iPhone SE). It can capture 4K video (compared to 1080p video on iPhone SE) and record slow motion video, too.
Processor and battery: both have A13 Bionic
As its main budget phone, Apple could have equipped the iPhone SE with an older processor. But the device is equipped with the latest property A13 bionic chip, the same one that is inside the iPhone 11. That means we should be able to observe similar processing performance speeds, but we won’t know for sure until we have the iPhone SE in our hands and can run benchmark tests.

For what it’s worth, when we ran Geekbench 5 and 3DMark’s Slingshot Unlimited on iPhone 11 last year, it had comparable performance, and sometimes better than, the Galaxy S20, Pixel 4 and OnePlus 8 Pro. But then again, we still don’t know about the iPhone SE’s performance.
As always, Apple does not disclose the battery capacity of the iPhone SE. However, based on their numbers, the iPhone SE’s battery life is not as long as that of the iPhone 11. When it announced the iPhone 11, Apple claimed it lasts “an hour longer” than the iPhone XR, citing 10 hours of streaming video playback. . Unofficial disconnections from the phone also revealed a 3,110 mAh battery. This time, Apple said that the iPhone SE has the same battery life as the iPhone 8, and listed 8 hours of streaming video playback. Although we don’t yet know the specs for the iPhone SE, the iPhone 8 had a 1,821 mAh battery according to third-party teardowns.
