Starting off with the design the iPhone SE 2020 is sold with many colour choices and the device has the exact same dimensions as the iPhone 8. They both do have gorilla glass backs but the difference between the bodies of these phones is that the SE has a glass frame while the 8 uses an aluminium one. Another advantage that makes the SE worth it is the A13 Bionic chip being sold with it at just over $400. This chip enables the iPhone SE users to run some of the latest games at a constant 60 FPS(frame rate). The camera of the phone remains identical to the 8 at a 12 MP single camera accompanied with a 7 MP front camera. But the iPhone SE uses a smarter HDR feature in the camera which the older iPhones don’t have. This helps the device to click better pictures by detecting the light in the room.
Here's a comparison with Samsung’s latest chip which is way more expensive when compared to the apples A13 bionic.
This phone isn’t all that good. The iPhone SE has a quickly deteriorating battery life. It uses a 1281 mAh battery while phones of the same size can contain batteries up to 3100 mAh. Here are the statistics of how long a few phones lasted with nonstop YouTube playback.
But luckily the SE does support wireless charging which makes it convenient. One more major let down is that the iPhone SE uses haptic touch for quick actions instead of the standard 3d touch. This decreases the accessibility of the quick actions which makes the screen of this phone worse than the iPhone 8. That’s all for now!
