I Used an iPhone SE 2022 for a Week (it was amazing)

As a 12-year-old turning 13 on June 29th, my parents decided it was a good idea to get me my first iPhone, I have been using a 20$ android for 2 years, I am VERY excited for this iPhone SE 3rd generation, I have no idea what is wrong with me, but whenever I find out I am getting something I research the crap out of it to get myself more excited. Anyway, I want to say thank you for making the hype even further up the chart.

One thing that I’ve noticed with my iPhone SE 2020 (that is probably even more the case for the iPhone SE 2022) is that since the screen is so bad, you think that the pictures that you take are not good looking, but in reality if you airdrop a photo taken on an iPhone SE 2022 to look at it on a good screen (like an iPhone 12), you’d see that the camera is much better than you thought

The se3 is basically an iPhone 13 in a retro iPhone body… super iconic design…

First!! It is crazy to me that basically everyone thinks that we need the newest greatest phone but you have been using this older phone just fine. Must be a cultural problem

About to switch back to the SE from my 14 Pro. Simplicity is all I'm looking for in life anymore.

Using SE 2022 almost 2 years and it's perfect small cute phone . And first of all it's comfortable

I’m in the process of going back to my 13 Mini. I’ve been on a mission to use my phone less for scrolling (music doesn’t count against my screen time) and also having an Apple Watch lets me forget my phone and not have that anxious feeling of fomo from people around me. I love the iPad mini. I’m excited to see your review on it, I use it everyday at work and it’s just the perfect size for productivity for me

Thanks for video. you should have millions of views

I barely comment but this video was amazing. I downgrade my 13 pro to SE 2022 because of my screen time and I was watching some videos about it. Your video was just what I was looking for keep it up sir.

Thanks to techno eclipse I reduced my daily phone usage from 4-5 hours to 2-3 hours daily

Loving this channel and this kind of content. Still rockin my 12mini and I don't have problems with my phone since I only use for call and messaging and taking street photography

I have now downgraded. From the Iphone 15Pro Max to the 2022 Iphone SE. I love the small Iphone, it can do everything I need, has a beautiful design, and unlike the current Iphones really a great and pleasant feel. And best of all: it fits really loosely in trouser pockets and jacket pockets without disturbing in any way!!

The SE 2022 is great deal if you check your local used market. I got an unlocked Midnight 64gb model for $179 on eBay. I use it as my travel phone since my main phone is carrier locked so my Main phone is basically a camera when Im in another country. Knowing that the SE 2022 is likely to get a few more years of IOS updates, gives me peace of mind t0 use the SE 2022 as my secondary/travel phone for many years.

Very nice video!!

Excellent review. And great that it’s more than just specs. I’d love to use my old LG V20, well out of support, for audio quality and feel in the hand as well as 3.5mm headphone socket and sd card slot. But those are hard to get these days and iPhones have better audio out for wired (android down sampling). So, I got a 15 max pro and love it as a mini tank powerhouse. But small phone it’s not. I need to use two numbers so an iPhone mini is a great option especially with MagSafe as I have a MagSafe stand and a battery.

Dude is quite underrated tbh

I agree with everything you said, except the battery part. I’ve been using an iPhone SE 2020 with 86% of battery health. It is not enough for anything almost. Last week I tried to hit the gym with 80% battery and just listening for music and occasionally looking into Instagram, the battery drained like 40% in one hour so it’s not good enough.

great video! In regards to my whole iPhone and Samsung dilemma, i think i ll just use both, well not really, more so switch between them on a monthly basis or sth similar, i just like them both too much and yeah, probably trying so hard to decide also uses up brain power for nothing so i ll just use both. Also, commenting this 2-3 hours before going to sleep with only 1 hour of screentime on the dot 😄

I switched back to the SE 2022 from my iPhone 12. Face ID was not working properly and I missed the home button. The SE fits much better in the hand.

Do you use cases for your phones?

Watching Techno after a long long time. I used to watch him when he had a different name, and I've followed all of his videos as he travels through generations of iPhones looking for minimizing screentime. I agree the 2022 iPhone SE is a great option, but from what I've noticed with trying the same sort of thing is that the iPhone 11 seems like a very good mid ground in all of this. It has the battery, does everything you need and functions like a beast, just like back when it was released. I've seen some rumors about a iPhone SE 4 in upcoming Apple release, any ideas on this Scott ?

Even for heavy use it’s fine for me. I game on it, watch plenty of videos, sorry to say it still sucks me in. Idk what is meant by only the newer phones doing that but I just really wish it had a better camera. At least night mode >_< I remember back when my mom got the 7+ and I was alil upset apple didn’t put the 2x camera on the regular size one. Here I am 8 years later with still a single lens camera. Wack, I don’t want a big phone!

I like the iPhone SE it’s reminds me of my old iPhone 6s which was my first my iPhone ever I miss my old iPhone 6s rip headphones jack

Good Video, but I hope you include more things in the video for example: playing heavy game and use heavy apps on old phones

I think the only 2 issues with the SE 3 is the RAM and the resolution, if it had 6GB of RAM and a 1080p screen it would be 100% perfect.

I love my iPhone SE 2022! It works great for me. I came from Samsung, and this phone is a beast! ❤ it works perfectly for me and my every day use.

I upgraded from a 13 Pro to a 15 Pro. The gap between the 6s-8, 8-XS, and XS-13 Pro all felt way bigger. We’ve reached peak and stayed there 4 years ago

One thing i must say is that while my social media screen time is high too, i also use my phone all day at school as a calculator, to message about projects, take pictures and record things and time myself on things etc and I feel like the battery won't be enough. I want this phone so bad, I can afford it, and I'll be coming from a 14 pro max to test this minimal nostalgic lifestyle, I just really hope the battery holds up 🙏

I want one. But it's out of stock. Will they restock it??

I want a good quality replacement battery for this model, and I can't find. (I don't live in the US)

I have the se 2. Works great years later. No reason for me to upgrade.

After using the SE3rd generation since it came out the battery is at 78% peak capacity. Usage is about 35 min/ daily. Also the special shots like nighttime, fireworks etc are not even close to the higher end iPhones. But i still like the phone for its size and simplicity. I don’t want to carry around some mini iPad sized device when out of the house. Lastly, I agree totally with limiting daily usage as these devices can literally take over ones life. My girlfriend’s usage is over 8 hours a day and it has effected our relationship. I feel as though her phone comes before me. Any mention of this sets of arguments so the situation just continues. I’m sure there are millions of ruined relationships because of the addiction of these devices.

I currently still use my XR 10 and will use it until I can’t. I refuse to drop $1K on a phone because that’s just ridiculous. When the time comes, I will replace my phone with something that is inexpensive, preferably under $400 and can do the job. I’m grateful for these types of videos as I still want my phone to have good internal hardware and can easily handle any iPhone updates. Clearly my phones last me a while.

Try out the old Samsungs

Eclipse without a filter? I thought that was a no-no

Did you speed up the video?

Since when does SE support 5G mmWave?

0:53 workin on a cheese grater video perhaps?

Ultra wide camera isn’t even always used for every photo. I prefer just having a single camera lens.

No sabía que Facundo hacia reviews

try the Galaxy A54!

I had to get rid of my 13 mini because it started giving me Pwm and I’ve been using my se3 and no issues. I use my phone 3 hours a day and I’m trying to get it down.

Compare the 13 mini to the SE 2022 please thank you I have the 13 mini I adore it not the 13 mini I mean 12 mini lol but the 13 mini the improved version of the 12 which I also used to have the SE 2022 edition Phone is in my opinion also one of the top smaller versions of devices minus night vision modeis the problem in my opinion and the battery size and by the way, the 12 mini does have the night vision mode by the way any version does not there’s no night mode😮

Watching this after I walked outside for 1 1/2 hours. Better than scrolling on my tiny phone (12 mini) I still wonder why the 2020/2022 SE doesn't have night mode. The chip can handle it.

Is the 2020 SE the same since they’re basically the same phone?

I use a Pixel but I always like holding my mom's iPhone SE

Do the SE and SE 2022 use the same case? Thanks

Question from an android user. Apple users know and make jokes about the short life of our Android phones, so, my question is if you buy a new iPhone today how many years would it last? I am seriously curious because if the support life is really so long, I'm thinking of changing

Solar eclipse!

yea the small screen is what put me off

"only iphone has and always will be an expensive experience until apple released the iphone se lineup" what about the 5c, also 3g was like 300 dollars or smth

Should I buy a se ?

iPhone 8 on the outside not 6.

I use this still. This is weird? Why is this weird?

the music audio is FKIN load!

Riyal

Battery life sucks tell you what

You talk way to fast ……

“Battery life is good if you don’t use your phone that much”🤦🏾‍♂️

I care more about a phone being a phone, versus having all that senseless additional stuff. My SE is perfect for me. Because I don’t use all that other stuff anyways. It’s a phone nothing more 😂 don’t get sucked into the gimmicks like they aim to do when they release a new phone every year basically. It’s a gimmick not a benefit
