The iPhone SE is as small as the iPhone 5 but as powerful as the iPhone 6s – and it has the same great rear camera – all for $679 (or $749 for 64GB of storage).

The iPhone SE is a flagship in every right, but a screen size of four inches is too hindering today. Like all iPhone, the Rs. 39,000 price tag can seem overpriced, and is a big reason why the phone is tough to recommend today.

Excellent performance; Best-in-class ergonomics; Crisp; sharp display

4-inch display is too restricted; Battery life is still rather low; Lags behind in low light photography

Apple announced something really different last month when it launched the iPhone SE along with smaller iPad Pro 9.7. We saw a smaller iPhone being unveiled for the first time and it has already hit Indian shores.

Great build quality; Powerful internals; Above average battery life; Great rear-facing camera with Live Photos and 4K Video; Fast cellular and WiFi connectivity; Stable iOS software with huge selection of apps

Design is same as the 5S; Expensive price tag in India; Below average Front facing camera; Limited to 16/64GB storage

In what was perhaps the worst kept secret in company history, Apple on Monday announced the 4-inch iPhone SE , a phone that looks similar to the now nearly four-year old iPhone 5 , but boasts innards that are identical to the current flagships iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus .

"Honey, someone has shrunk my iPhone!" That was my first reaction when I held the tiny iPhone SE for the first time. I'm an iPhone 6s Plus user and my hands felt really large while holding the iPhone SE.

Apple's new smaller iPhone has launched today, the handset comes with the power of the iPhone 6S in the smaller form factor of the iPhone 5S and there are already iPhone SE reviews from various sites.

I bought one of these phones in June for my 20 year old sons' birthday....another one in July for my daughters'...and then another in August for me after seeing how awesome this phone was for them. :) I haven't even used a third of the memory and I've installed everything I use.

It's a sign of the times when a smartphone coming in at over ￡350 for the basic model is described as cheap. The iPhone SE isn't cheap, but it is the best value iPhone we've ever seen.

Small screen with powerful spec; Strong camera; Good battery life

Contrast could be better; Audio lacks in dynamics and subtlety

I've had the phone for two years, And I get about five hours of battery life so need to recharge at least once a day

Apple iPhone SE launches in India on April 8 at a price of Rs 39,000. Here's our review for this 4-inch iPhone.

The best feature of this phone has to be its size; There are lot of people who struggle with large phones, and find no viable alternative given that smaller phones are now becoming really rare.
