I use an old gen iPhone SE and I have no intentions of trading until it quits. The days of instant upgrades is getting old for most folks. As long as it works I don’t care if it’s built using an old coral box.
I have an old SE and really like it. I’d upgrade but I don’t see a new model I like better. The SE is compact and unassuming and does what I need it to do. My only complaint is that it occasionally, like about twice a year, gets into a state where the battery runs down quickly. This lasts for a day or two and then it returns to normal. It’s done it enough now that I know the pattern. Aside from that it’s a good little workhorse phone.
