Apple just launched its most pocketable, palm friendly iPhone SE smartphone (2nd Gen) today. Introduced back in 2016, this compact smartphone has remained a people’s favourite smartphone due to its sleekly dimensions and easy to carry stature.
The changes this time around are far more noticeable as the new iPhone SE comes with a larger 4.7-inch Retina HD display with Haptic touch support. The processor is a mightier too with Apple’s latest 13th gen chipset. The body is made out of aerospace-grade aluminium finished with a durable glass design on both front and back with IP67 water and dust resistance. The camera is similar to the one found on the iPhone XR, as this too gets a single 12MP lens (f/1.8) that uses apple signature image signal processor and neural engine for processing images. The front, on the other hand, includes a 7MP lens capable of recording 1080p HD videos as standard. There is no word on the battery life yet, but keeping up with Apple’s smartphones, we can expect all-day-battery life at least.
