There are certainly a purpose of taking videos or photos using phones. If not, manufacturers won't not even upgrade the camera of photo to the standard now or even 4K video taking.

One may have personal preference for not taking video using phone but it certainly does not represent everyone.

If phone is not made for home users to take photos or videos, the point and shoot camera or home user video recorder won't not be killed now.

It is exactly phones are made for normal users for this purpose, that's the reason why no normal users are taking extra camera or video camera but instead only those professionals.

The very initial reason of putting a camera onto a phone is to let you take picture while you left your real camera at home. This was what it really meant for.
Later, ppl take this as advantage in improving their productivity at work e.g. taking picture of a document or notes. <-- this is the main function of the camera on my phone. My iPhone's Photo app is full of documents instead of real photos.
Soon, it become fancier and the phone manufacturer decided to add video function onto the phone and kept upgrading it so that they can come out with new selling points and reasons to sell the phones at higher price.
Again, what was the original retail price for iPhone or Samsung Galaxy S? What is the retail price now for the latest iPhone and Samsung phone?

Videos? not even exist in my phone.

As long as you get the SE model A1723, you are ok to go with Malaysian Telcos.
SE model A1662 doesn't support LTE band 7, thus you cannot get 4G/LTE with local telcos. But you can still get 3G.
Other SE models I am not sure. You have to find out yourself.

There's no need to push your ideal on how to use your phone onto others. You can justify what feature is for what purpose such as NFC, bluetooth, selfie camera, bigger screen and so on.

There's no wrong to take photo or video on anything the owner of the phone like. The camera is there, use or not it's your choice.

I've finally had it with big phones & got myself a Space Grey 128gb SE. So far so good.

How's the battery life? I'm having trouble keeping up with half a day's usage on an iPhone 6

For me, iPhone SE battery life is amazing on iOS 9 only. iOS 10 good bye

agreed with you

thinking to settle down just with SE 128gb, but can't find anywhere except for Apple Retail store. No telco carry 32gb/128gb at their store.

Thanks, missed Celcom website last time. Seems I won't get from Celcom either.

Why iphone SE rear camera slow-mo lighting is not as good as iphone 5s?
It looks a bit darker even increase the camera brightness.

Noticed that too. But didnt compare with 5S.

It could be due to the slow mo settings. 5s could only do 120 fps at 1080p vs se 240 fps 720p. As frame rate goes higher, you need more light to go into sensor to make it brighter.

same here , noticed that too

yes. Correct. Well said.

How I wish I had a 128gb iphone se instead of 64gb one now.

I just got my iPhone SE 128GB Rose Gold yesterday.Still getting familiar with iOS. It comes with iOS 10.3. My last iOS device was iPod touch 3g running iOS 3.

My previous phone includes Lumia 925 and Lumia 640.Getting bored and lonely using Windows Phone.

Congrats bro.

Why do I feel like there's a lot of problems with my iPhone SE? Lol. From power button sunken in to home button got weird clicking sound, mic not clear when on call. And etc. Or I'm just bad luck who gotten the bad unit? 😑
