This iPhone SE (2020) review isn't like what we'd write for any other modern-day smartphone. The iPhone SE (2020) is so different from other phones in its price range, in terms of features and target audience, that it almost seems as though it should be in a different product category. If you have a budget of Rs. 45,000, there are plenty of Android smartphones that may be more logical to buy. Although it's now the lowest priced current-gen iPhone in Apple's lineup, the iPhone SE (2020) is still hardly affordable by Indian standards. Think of it as a specialised tool for a specific purpose.

iPhone SE (2020) Summary

The iPhone SE (2020) is an unusual device, combining a throwback style with some modern internal components. It's virtually identical to the iPhone 8 from the outside, and there aren't many phones these days that are as slim and light. That also means the screen is small, at 4.7 inches, and battery life isn't great. You get the modern A13 Bionic processor which is extremely powerful, but only a single rear camera. The main attraction for many people will be iOS, which is smooth and slick, with multiple years of updates guaranteed. Apple also targets this phone at those who want to upgrade from an older model to continue using iCloud services.

While you can get good performance from the iPhone SE (2020), its utility is limited by the small screen. The rear camera takes great stills and video in the daytime, but low-light performance is disappointing. Noteworthy features include wireless charging and an IP67 water resistance rating.

There are plenty of Android models at around the same price which offer much more competitive core specifications, but iPhone users will be glad to have the option of a more affordable model.

I phone SE 2020 the Best budget I phone

Kailash Chopra (Jun 9, 2020) on Gadgets 360 Recommends

I Honestly that this phone is a total beast and can outdate any Android phone available in market today seriously but this phone only one demerit and that is a small 4.7 Inches screen otherwise A13 Bionic chipset along with 3GB of Ram can handle out any task pretty much well along with Pro Gaming .

Top performance phone

Michael Barbas (Sep 24, 2021) on Gadgets 360

Despite negative comments, the A13 Bionic processor scores AnTuTu 9 = 634941, Geekbench 5 - 1341 / 3547 and Clock gives you 2660 MHz. This makes the A13 Bionic the Number 6 best processor in 2021 as per Nanoreview processor 2021 rankings. In practice this means that the SE 2020 is a top performance phone. Moreover, no other phone in this price range can beat the A13 Bionic. The SD870, Exynos 1080, SD865 Plus, Dimensity 1200, SD865, SD860, SD855 Plus, and Kirin 990 5G that you usually meet in smartsphones of that price range are ranked far below the A13 Bionic. If you want a phone that will guarantee top performance then go for it.

best for gaming/ streaming

Ayush Kumar (May 21, 2020) on Gadgets 360 Recommends

i think it is the best phone for gamers. probaly it is capable to run pubg at high specs even after 20 updates while, even in gud performance camera gud, battery would be an issue but goodwill is another spec.
