The Apple iPhone SE (2020) 64GB is Apple's 2020 smartphone featuring a 4.7 inches, 60.9 cm2 (~65.4% screen-to-body ratio) display, the Apple A13 Bionic (7 nm+) chipset. It comes with a 1821 mAh battery. At AED 600 in the UAE and ₹19,900 in India, it sits firmly in the budget tier.
The iPhone SE (2020) excels with the A13 Bionic chip—still faster than 90% of 2024 mid-range chips—and its 12MP main camera with OIS delivers stable, low-light shots unmatched in its price bracket. The 59-hour battery endurance supports full-day use without anxiety. Ideal for users needing a compact, durable phone with iOS updates until 2027, especially those replacing aging iPhones or avoiding large screens. Its 4.7-inch display and home button suit one-handed use, but the lack of 5G and dated LCD panel with 625 nits brightness limit outdoor visibility and future-proofing. In UAE at AED 600, it’s competitive because it outperforms Android phones costing double, with unmatched software longevity. In India at ₹19900, it’s overpriced—flagship-tier performance is buried under a 2020 design, and rivals like the Redmi Note 13 Pro+ offer 200MP cameras, 120Hz OLED, and 5G for similar money.
