Another school of thought, if you are going to spend RM2100 for a phone , might as well go for higher specs phone such as Iphone 12 mini RM2899 ?

Either that, you can go for 2nd hand iPhone SE 2020 128GB that cost about RM1100 max (with change of battery).

But iPhone SE 2022 is a good entry point for first time user or those on budget to get into Apple Ecosystem.

Camera looks ok , but no night mode

Well you only get 64GB with that 12 mini. You get 256GB with the SE 2022 at RM2799

Still comes with lighting port.

I am waiting for the day iPhones use usb-c.

Plan go for the 2020 if the 2022 don't have a good battery capacity.

Also wonder if I constantly snap in the battery casing to se 2020, will it damage or deteriorate the battery ?
I know the down side also its much heavier overall

But a bit reluctant to fork 2k for the new SE haha.
Ops also current Android user plan switch to iphone to try

My thought as much, 2K is just very alang alang. It's a lot of money btw, and to spending that much for half baked product is like not worth it right?

Even iPhone 11 at discounted price of RM2311 now might be a better buy than iPhone SE 2022, with night mode, dual camera and LONG BATTERY life..

Well your right but for me personally as I am about to try iphone so ya price is an issue,
also I kind of like SE due to the size and the touch ID thing

Iphone 11 and beyond never on my radar largely cause of cost, design; although agreed that battery capacity much better.

Oh u from android then u should get iPhone SE 2022

Let see how's the review like on battery and performance after released

yes i second this
nothing wrong using IP11 in 2022

Yea if want can softmod to iphone 13 with back cover and 2 sideway camera

Iphone 11 128gb RM2599

Iphone SE 3 128GB RM2299

Hmm.

To be fair, it’s only a good choice for those who absolutely need to stay in the Apple ecosystem, otherwise you can get a midrange Android phone that is equally capable and much, much better hardware specs for RM1.5k or so. Don’t talk about longevity or software updates though!

Haha, yes, the additional 1GB RAM compared to the iPhone 6 really makes the difference feel like night and day. Can’t believe a 2015 phone is still doing it in 2022, hahaha….

Could be sooner than we think due to EU regulations but Apple is stubborn, they will persist with lightning for as long as they can I’m sure…

Actually I’m a bit reluctant to recommend an Android user to start his Apple experience with the SE particularly if his usage is heavy and is used to a 4000mAh battery or larger in the Android ecosystem. I’d say go for the 13 if budget permits. Otherwise, few months later, that fella will curse Apple and iPhones and go back to Android

I only see the A15 chip as the advantage of the SE over the 11 to be honest, unless you really need 5G…

i will still recommend cheap iphone over similar price android phone still. the user experience is totally at diferent grade no matter how much extra features the low end or mid range android phone is. haha.

Midrange Androids have come a long way actually - the user experience is not bad these days. Anyways, it’s just a different experience to iOS so can’t really compare that way

For me, I would actually buy a 2nd hand iPhone SE 2020, and changed the original battery at Switch/machine for RM210... than buying a new RM1000 android.

I still have the 1st gen iphone se (iphone 5/5s design). that time i am switching my iphone 4s, but i did not manage to get the iphone 5s first batch. then out of my mind, i went to buy the samseng note 3 which it was the greatest mistake i had ever made on a mobile phone purchase. so i bought the se when it was out that time just to make up this mistake.

Different users, different needs and desires I guess. Two glaring omissions from the SE 2020 were a bigger battery and night mode on the camera. Have to wait and see if the 2022 SE addresses that.

Patiently waiting review and maybe go try it out myself.
My options either

SE 2022, get a battery case?
SE 2020 , need change battery maybe and battery case?

Last resort pixel 5 second hand haha

don't forget iPhone 12 mini 128GB RM3011 now.

Yup this is actually a better choice than iPhone 11 or iPhone se 2022.
