all right what’s up mkbhd now and now it is this is the brand-new 2022 iphone se now on paper s e stands for special copy still distributed according to an old phil schiller mention but the truth is this is the least special telephone that apple realise so i propose a brand-new refer for this one unofficially let’s just call it the simple edition because that’s what it is the iphone se formula is and has been simple new microchip age-old figure low price so the ingredients this year are the a15 bionic same chip that’s in the iphone 13 s in the body of an iphone 8 again with its old-time intend and home button and everything and 429 price tag now last contemporary this formula i said it was a smacked right but now it’s two years later and competition’s sort of catching up a little bit more it’s not as self-evident of a gigantic champion as it’s been in the past peculiarly because the price did go up a little bit but in a world of the budget phone with the high-pitched refresh proportion spectacle versus the plan phone with the big-hearted battery or the fund telephone with a stylus or the one with quad cameras this one has gone something all the rest of them don’t have which is it’s the budget phone that’s an iphone here’s my do though this is and ever has been a awfully unbalanced phone like this has got constituents that would humble other 400 telephones but then other places that are starting to fall behind those phones like putting an a15 bionic in the iphone se means that this 400 phone has a more powerful chip than the 300 galaxy s22 ultra mostly it has the most powerful chip in any phone right now alongside the flagship iphone 13 and 13 pro that is clearly more strength than the normal iphone sc buyer is going to need and it flies through ios on a 720 p display with no hitches that’s no surprise it feels like putting route extremely much engine in a tiny gondola but the reason for doing this is the same as it always has been which is it’s got headroom for daytimes this phone is gonna perform the same path it does today as it does in two times as it does in four five maybe six years and that is a priority for an iphone sc customer which is the longevity the software updates this is probably the longest persistent 400 phone period and then of course there’s a bunch of other benefits to adding this newest chip this phone has 5g now not millimeter tide but sub 65 g which is the most common kind and probably will be for a pair years and then time better overall efficiency although i’ll get to this phone’s battery life in a few seconds and it is now time likewise has the new persona signal processor in the a15 so it can get a little more out of the exact same camera hardware and by the mode there is one more gig of ram in now than the last sc so four gigs of ram it’s basically an iphone 13 as far as operation disappears but then let’s talk about that camera on the back right because that’s the one other thing that is just it’s in a tournament of its own it’s miles ahead of other 400 phones so it’s time a single camera on the back 12 megapixels as far as i can tell it’s the accurate same camera hardware again as the iphone 8 and the last se and the facts of the case is it’s just straight up the best single camera in this range it’s “the worlds largest” consistent it’s the best with color and sounds management it doesn’t have as much natural background blur as the others with bigger sensors but it also doesn’t have as much fringing and then the a15 bionic is giving you deep fusion in medium dim illuminating and smart hdr4 in high dynamic straddle places you have the brand-new photographic wordings peculiarity that erects the differences between seeks straight into the idol processing pipe so basically if you thought the iphone 8 photos were good this will too be good now you know when i’m shooting with it yeah i do miss not having an ultrawide sometimes and there are some instances where i really wish i could make like a 2x button and exactly get a little bit of visual zoom running but at the same time i have to remember almost nobody coming this phone will have ever suffered that stuff in the past so they won’t really know what they’re missing oh also this is the best video camera in any 400 telephone hands down it bumps up to 4k 60 this time huge automobile focus all the same huge complexion and stuff i was talking about the only thing that’s missing from this camera still night state you would think with an a15 bionic they could finally get night mode into an iphone sc camera but that’s still not now but the point is you can see where i’m going with this privilege world-class chipping with excellent recital and longevity and an amazing camera probably the best in any budget phone alongside the pixel 5a and then everything else about this telephone is from the iphone 8 that that telephone came out in 2017 so it’s uh ogling a little long in the tooth as “theyre saying” like it’s just not very balanced now it’s not that there’s things that are bad about this telephone it’s just that they’re so locked into this formula this exact formula like the newer iphone 13 mini is smaller than this phone but it has a 5.4 inch flaunt right this iphone 8 figure is moderately small-scale and trim by today’s standards but when you turn it around you got those bezels and the kuki-chin and you precisely crunch down to a much smaller 4.7 inch presentation and that expose is like i said scarcely above 720 p resolution it’s 60 hertz it maxes out at a not very bright 600 nits so the whole figurehead of this telephone simply feels so improbably outdated you know you look at the other 400 phones now and they’re all trying to give you much larger flaunts thinner bezels a lot of them are doing 90 or 120 hertz refresh proportions now no question but hey that’s not apple’s formula they stick with the iphone 8 mas precisely and what can fit in this mas exactly you know almost all of the competitive telephones in this price have multiple cameras at least an ultra wide title that’s not the iphone se formula the iphone 8 had one camera the last iphone se had one camera so yeah this one also is going to have one camera and on top of that you know lots of competitive plan telephones are jamming impressively massive artilleries in there five 4000 literally five thousand milliamp hours plus sometimes and the single biggest concern with the last iphone se was battery life right so apple did hear that a little bit they did take improved battery chemistry and fit a somewhat higher capacity artillery in this same torso but generally it was better behaves quite much the same way so we know a1 5 bionic is a very efficient chip it did great in this telephone with standby hour and those productivity cores certainly go to work when you’re doing that lightweight stuff the network browsing messaging say the stuff most iphone sc useds do plenty of but if you do fire up a high brightness navigation app or if you jump into a game or simply use the phone a good deal then this is it’s still a flagship chipping you are able burn through battery really quickly with all that power in order to be allowed to get to the end of the day like knowing what i was doing but i still did notice like when i shelled this up and navigated to work 30 hour drive with waze on 10 battery get like if i just used if i was in a game like asphalt for a bit while i could notice it turning down artillery and i killed this phone more than formerly by 9 pm and then because of this formula this telephone still maxes out at 20 watts of fast charge so it’ll fill up zero to 100 in like an hour and it still merely has seven and a half watts max of wireless accusing i would actually recommend leaving on smart data mode on this telephone which will automatically turn off 5g when you don’t need it because that can help save a little bit of liquid but overall yeah this phone’s battery life is still not great it’s scarcely median so yeah world class is the chipping the camera and the haptics and then below average is everything else so that’s it’s very similar to the last year or the 2020 iphone se which by the way held up next to this phone you can just tell the difference other than a slightly different emblazon we got a flake of a deeper red this year and then also instead of black and white it’s starlight and midnight this time but basically the number one thing i ascertained myself wondering when using this telephone is what if they weren’t so locked into this formula like this phone starts at 429 bucks i’m guessing the price is a little higher because of 5g but let’s call it 400 freedom 50 added gives you 128 gigs of storage because this only starts at 64. and we know that they can make a phone this cheap because they’re using this precise same figure that they have been able to mass cause for so long that the price has gone down but if they wanted to change something about it like contributing a camera hole or varying something about it that would mean brand-new investigate new tooling brand-new manufacturing operations spinning up and that would hump up the cost but by how much because i kind of still want to see it like i would argue that a crappy 120 -inch expose which you see in all various kinds of other fund phones would make this iphone feel faster for the life of the phone but they’re not going to do that because they’ve still got this panel that they’ve gotten since the beginning of occasion and we are also aware that those obnoxiously thick 4 5 000 milliamp hour batteries would certainly make this phone last much longer but you’d have to realize the phone thicker and that they are able to increase the price but by how much like clearly they could use more battery or even threshing in an ultra wide merely because every other phone seems to have that ultra wide camera i missed it i anticipate other people who are shopping with other phones will notice this doesn’t have one but that would mean snip another camera excavation and that’s a whole new intend that costs more coin but how much more maybe you could still do it but certainly i’m just going to have to wonder that forever because this seems to be the only way apple knows how to make a cheaper phone it’s boring it’s predictable but it’s simple and you know exactly what you’re getting and not get because basically it’s happened before now all that being said this is still actually a very easy iphone to recommend because it’s the cheapest new iphone and it’s going to get the software updates for the longest meter the natural kindness that saved coming up we talked about this at the studios what about iphone 11 right and iphone 11 it won’t have 5g but it will have a bigger display thinner bezels face id better artillery life and it’ll be about a hundred horses more and there’s also iphone 13 mini which is going to be a bigger display thinner bezels face id better battery life and has 5g and the newest chipping but it’s like 300 more but neither of those have something this phone has which is the dwelling button and that sounds crazy and it might be a surprise but a lot of beings still actually precisely want a dwelling button never underestimate the ability of the dwelling button so at the end of the working day i’m glad the iphone se just got any revise at all because that’s better for people going this telephone now into the future old-fashioned pup brand-new ruse thank you for having watching catch you guys the next one serenity[ Music]
