Apple iPhone SE Details
A chip that really zips.
A leap in battery life.
A fast 5G connection.
A design that’s made to last.
A superstar camera.
A button you call Home.
All in a pocket‑friendly 4.7″ design.
Fast runs in the family
At the heart of iPhone SE you’ll find the same super-powerful A15 Bionic chip that’s in iPhone 13.
A15 Bionic enhances nearly everything you do. Apps load in a flash and feel so fluid.
But that’s not all
You get incredibly smooth graphics performance for gaming.
Up to 1.2x faster graphics performance vs iPhone SE (2nd Gen)
Up to 5x faster graphics performance vs iPhone 6S
A15 Bionic even powers advanced photography features that make each part of your photo — faces, places, everything — look fabulous.
Big-time battery life
A highly efficient chip, an enhanced battery and iOS 17 work together to boost battery life. When you do need to charge, just place iPhone SE on a wireless charger. Or connect a 20W or higher adapter to fast-charge from zero to up to 50 per cent in 30 minutes flat
Up to 2 hours more video playback VS iPhone SE (2nd Gen)
Up to 4 hours more video playback VS iPhone 6S
5G Now on SE
Faster downloads, Faster streaming, Faster gaming, Less lag, More fun
From livestreaming to multiplayer gaming to video sharing, 5G really speeds things up. It even makes FaceTime in high definition and SharePlay feel smooth and seamless when you’re on the go. When you don’t need all that speed, iPhone SE shifts into Smart Data mode to preserve battery life.
With the power of A15 Bionic and a fast 5G connection, you’re set up for years to come.
Cool with stumbles
Thanks to a durable design and the toughest glass in a smartphone.
Cool with spills
Thanks to incredible water resistance. iPhone SE shrugs off spills from common liquids such as water, coffee, tea and juice. And it’s certainly not bothered by a little dust either.
A camera you’ll instantly click with
Smart stuff happens between snap and shot. The A15 Bionic chip does all kinds of computations behind the scenes to make your photos look great.
For example, Smart HDR 4 automatically refines the contrast, lighting and skin tones for up to four people — so everyone looks their best.And in mid to low light, Deep Fusion studies multiple exposures pixel by pixel to capture the subtlest details, textures and patterns in your final shot.
Set your look once. Get it every time
Give your camera direction with Photographic Styles. Choose a look — such as Warm or Cool — and iPhone SE selectively applies the adjustments, keeping skies and skin tones natural. So your photos will automatically have the look you love.
Portrait mode draws attention to your subject by artfully blurring the background.
Portrait Lighting lets you choose from six creative effects, like Stage Light or High-Key Light Mono, before or after you shoot.
Low-light scenes. Just-right videos
Go ahead, keep the camera rolling. The enhanced video on iPhone SE picks up an incredible amount of detail — including contours, shadows and highlights — even when the sun goes down.
Get to know Slo-mo. Let your favourite moments linger that little bit longer.
Turn minutes into seconds. Time-lapse speeds up your video to mesmerising effect.
Sharp, bright and bursting with colour, the Retina HD display makes everything look incredible
The Home button you know and love
Touch ID is a fast, simple and secure way to unlock your phone and sign in to apps. You can even use it with Apple Pay to do things like buy gifts online or go shopping at the supermarket — all without reaching for your card.
Privacy is built in
iPhone helps put you in control of your personal information. For example, when you’re browsing, Safari intelligently helps block trackers from profiling you and shows you which ones have been blocked in your Privacy Report. And the list goes on.
