I got an iPhone SE3 and I hate it. It’s too big, it’s almost like a mini tablet. I was about to quit iPhone for good but remembered the OG is still “technically” usable. How’s the experience? And do you think it’ll last for a few more years, at least?
It’s better to try to get used to. No reason to downgrade that hard
Hum, dude, I just googled the screen sizes for iPhone SE 1 & 3 and they’re both the same, so it won’t change anything if the se 3 is too big.
SE 1 is 4" SE 2 & 3 are 4.7"
I’m using my SE 2020 rn. Still like it a lot aside from the meh camera.
Get an iphone mini
Using it now. It’s my only device and internet access. I bought it a couple of years back for £37 off eBay.
Well if you quit Apple phones then you have no other options as the SE line is the smallest in the market.
The OGSE is perfectly usable in 2023, yes. It’ll likely still be usable until 2025 which is when you can expect a lot of apps to move away from it.
Considering how the iPhone 5s got a security update for iOS 12 in January 2023, you’ll be good for a while on iOS 15.
They are still very popular amongst service and maintenance contractors for various reasons.

Yes it is. It still gets app and security updates on a recent iOS version. With a new battery it can definitely last a couple more years from now.
I have an OG SE as my main phone and I’m still very happy with it, no interest in getting a newer phone. It’s also the last iPhone with headphone jack.
Se 3 as a mini tablet ? Damn, I can’t imagine you using a pro max lmao
I bought the IPhone SE2 but went back to OGSE due to the size. I wish the OGSE had a tad better camera in low light and the unoptimized webbrowsing can be annoying from time to time but it gets the job done
The screen sizes are all the same, I just googled it, they all have the same screen sizes, the se 1, 2, & 3 are all the same screen size. Where are people getting the idea that they’re not?
Original SE is the body of the 5/5S just with the 6S performance.
The se 1 was around the 4s size iirc. The se 2 and 3 are iPhone 7 size, much “larger”.
Here’s a review, and read the comments there.
Why not use the iPhone 4S by your logic?
Just being mr. literal here but I tried using my iPhone 4s 1.5 years ago when they discontinued the 3g towers, and AT&T almost canceled my account over it. This is in USA. May not be the same result in all countries
I have both and the 13 Mini. The SE3 and 13 Mini (although smaller and lighter than the SE3) are too big and heavy for a comfortable one-handed use. So, I am still daily driving my trusty OGSE. The OGSE still functions perfectly for me. It runs all the apps I need and use constantly flawlessly. The only annoying thing about it is that some websites and apps don’t load and function properly because they are being designed and optimized for the flip-flop sized iPhones. I actually find this to be true for the SE3 and 13 Mini as well.
