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 usable. Provided you have a 128 GB OG SE.
64 GB of storage is horrendous in 2023. People will say that you don’t need that much storage but these folks are all foolish. A simple app like Gmail is like 455 MB big now. Twitter is like 300 MB or something. Now if you have all essential apps and maybe one or two games installed, you’re almost at 35-40 GB used already.
With the 128 GB, you don’t have to worry about the storage too much for daily apps. Next will be the battery life. If the battery was recently replaced, you’re good.
Also being on the latest iOS version will guarantee you that you will have the most recent apps that can still be installed today.
Eh? I survived with a 16gb OGSE in 2022 as my daily driver. Everything is steamed now so nothing is required to be on your device other than apps. I used that OGSE for everything, it was a proper smartphone, lol.
I’m still with a 16gb OGSE 😊 I definitely wouldn’t recommend it, for instance I can’t update my phone without using my PC to do the update. But other than that I’m very happy with it. I was gonna upgrade to a new phone this year or the next, but it’s hard to justify when it still does everything i need it to.
