They invented the app store, they switched to stereo plus on top of unrivalled 4K capture which is EIS capable at 60 frames, plus what flagships including Android have headphone jack these days and software updates lasts 4-5 years minimum (much longer than pixel). If iphone 11 pro runs Android, I will gladly buy one cause I like Android plus it's freedom of accessibility. They produce the best hardware possible, it's the truth even you can't be blind about.

      iPhone will always be a luxury in India. Be it 11Pro or SE. We don't have a minimum wage rate of $10/hr and never will inorder to keep food, clothing and essentials cheap. Govt. not taxing it will result in minor change in its sale. In a country where over 80% of people buy sub $300 phones, even if Iphones were to sell at US rates people just won't buy them, people wouldn't want to pay for music & most of the apps too. So they aren't meant for price sensitive country like India.

      @JokeinParis 4 роки тому +4

      Ivan Lubis when you talk about Smartphones’ cameras, there is 3 points to study :
      -the sensor (the size of it)
      -the lens and how they designed it
      -the internal photo processing software (colour correction/ chromatic aberration/ contrast and so on..).
      Apple imo has the best internal photo processing software as for now, and many photographers may agree with me.
      What I mean with the SE 2020? It is that with photo processor software, normally you can choose the shutter speed but Apple decided to lock all the manual modes and prefers to use an automatic c one for photo newbies. Night mode could easily be implemented in this SE because it has the right processor (A13 Bionic) and thus could easily handle a night mode processing.
      For me ( but I don’t how the software processes), night mode is a mix between long exposure & white & lights enhancement. These things Can be easily done by the SE but imo Apple locked this feature for marketing segmentation.... this is my point.

      I just upgraded to the new SE from an iPhone 5, which is still in excellent condition, and was OK for my purposes. The battery still held a charge. I purchased the new SE over other phones because of its size. I wanted a new phone that fits comfortably in my pocket and hand. Not everyone wants a 'big' phone.

      I think you're not taking into account that enthusiasts trash this phone because they know that for the price, Apple is taking advantage of the average consumer.
      2020 SE should be $250 MAX.

    Thank you for talking about variations in world pricing. You are the only American reviewer to even mention this and it's appreciated because all of the big tech reviewers have global audiences and the prices of these things are wholly inconsistent (I'm in Sweden for example, where a base model SE comes in at $550).
