with this upgraded specs, I wish the battery capacity can be larger, at least 1800MAH. And they should consider doing away with 16GB and put 32GB as the entry line as 4K videos can easily use up the small storage.

you need to understand the target market.for existing iPhone 5/5S users and new iPhone users to be who don't want a bigger screen.the market is saturated with bigger screen smartphones.u really can't find a 4" screen smartphone with good specs like this SE.

First iOS handle differently compared to Android.Android is Java based.Need a VM and garbage collectore mechanism.The more buffer u have aka the RAM, the better.

However, iOS don't need that for now.

6/S design is harder for people to grip to the bare body itself, forcing people to actually buy casings and whatnots.

5/S were nice square not really rounded sides that makes holding much easier

Actually I kinda feel this is the first iPhone with a sensible pricing in a very long time. However, I think Apple kinda make it hard for people when they choose to stick with 1.2MP selfie cam.

I think it all down to pricing. First time ever iPhone below 2k... but if import back, could escalate to 6S pricing... laugh.gif
