Apple iPhone SE (2nd generation) - (PRODUCT) RED - 4G smartphone - dual-SIM / Internal Memory 128 GB - LCD display - 4.7" - 1334 x 750 pixels - rear camera 12 MP - front camera 7 MP - red

This is a great little phone for us practical folks who don’t often upgrade but still want a phone with most of the nicer features that are on the bigger more expensive phones. I actually have an old Gen 1 SE still being an awesome little phone that still works great and that led me to pick the newer SE up when it came out. I barely early adopt any new tech when it comes out unless I really believe in it and this phone mostly delivers. A huge bonus for me on this one is it still has the home button. I just prefer having a tactile button that I can feel, you know? As for the rest of the phone, again, decent for the price. Good sound quality, fast, has all the features I want out of a phone. Camera is just OK and takes decent pictures but can be fuzzy when it comes to ... MoreThis is a great little phone for us practical folks who don’t often upgrade but still want a phone with most of the nicer features that are on the bigger more expensive phones.

Camera is just OK and takes decent pictures but can be fuzzy when it comes to regular shots. This is more noticeable zoomed all the way in. It is a phone after all and not a camera so it definitely gets the job done. If you want a better camera though you’ll have to shell out for the more expensive phones however. Or, you know, an actual camera. My biggest gripe with all iPhones I’ve used, with this being no exception, is battery life. It seems great at first and within a year or so you definitely notice it become shorter and shorter. I don’t know if that’s Apples forced obsolescence trying to push you to a new phone every year that you really don’t need. I don’t know if they just use inferior batteries to make money selling you a replacement battery. All I know is that it doesn’t matter what phone it is from Apple, the battery will always be a huge let down. This alone is the reason in fairness I can not give this phone 5 stars.

Apple knockoff - cheap, buggy, dissapointing

Owned this phone for awhile know therefore this is a review based on experience. What we have with this phone is lack of Apple quality. Sorry Best Buy fans, this phone is an Asian knockoff and has quality quirks with its IOS. It drops calls within heavily concertrated Wi-Fi connected areas. It does not maintain consistent Wi-Fi contact during a call and, for business reasons, leaves a poor impression on the user and the customer. The battery never keeps a non drained charge over 9 hours. If the user requires an emergency call, for instance a call for assistance during a coronary episode, the odds this iPhone boots up, accepts a password the first try, makes a solid connection with the your cell carrier, by chance does not flash some type of software update or cloud ... MoreOwned this phone for awhile know therefore this is a review based on experience.

At $250, consider looking elseware.

For a 128Gb, $250 is pretty steep for a 3 year old iphone, especially when a brand new 2022 variant is almost 2x its value. I paid the $250 premium with full expectation for the phone to be near flawless. However, I was met with a scuffed front screen and a light scratches across the center. The description says “very good condition”. You’re better off getting devices in better condition from else-ware, and for cheaper. As for core functions, the device worked properly woth no issues and is unlocked as advertised. Is it worth it? Yes. Is it worth it for $250? Not at all. Not recommended given the apparent scratches all over the screen. The restocking fee isnt making this price any better should you ever decide to return it.

Great Way to Get a Mobile Phone at Walmart

Walmart makes it so easy to buy a mobile phone. There are so many phones to choose from. If you want a new phone or a refurbished phone to save even more money, Walmart has you covered. I like the new phones myself but the choices are yours. Plus, Walmart has so many accessories to go with your phones. New battery, a new case, even a protected screen, Walmart can even walk you through setting up your phone at the store. Just remember to bring your old phone with all the passwords you made. It will go so much smoother. Bring a notepad and a good pen and write down everything, like your new ID: updated address, and else to make its much easier to transfer your number over. Also, do not cancel your old phone just yet. If you are starting from scratch and you’re getting ... MoreWalmart makes it so easy to buy a mobile phone. There are so many phones to choose from.

Before buy a new phone ask about any promotions for getting a free or low cost phone. Senior Citizens and military discounts could be available to you as well.

Love this!!

I love this iPhone! It is so great. The camera is a lot better than my old Samsung Galaxy. The storage is amazing, especially if you pay a dollar a month for more iCloud storage. It is such a good size and fits in my pocket. Some phones are too big for that these days. The only big problem is the the battery life. The battery drains really quickly. I don't constantly use my phone and at most am on it three hours a day, at most!! Most days though I use it for two hours in total and it lasts throughout the day to text and occasionally play a game or two, then I plug it in when I go to bed. It charges pretty quickly, which is good.If you use your phone a lot and still want this one, I recommend getting an Apple Watch. That way contacting people can be done on the ... MoreI love this iPhone! It is so great. The camera is a lot better than my old Samsung Galaxy.

That way contacting people can be done on the watch and games or whatever else can be done on the phone. Don't get me wrong, I love this phone, but there are a few things I would change. The price is good and it is smooth, a good transition to Apple products. Easy to use.

New phone same as old phone

I dropped my iphone 6s and cracked the screen and was having touch issues. I imagined my battery was insufficient to handle my growing need for more complex apps so I decided on this one. It looks exactly like the 6s and if I didn't see that it had 64gig instead of 32gig I would not notice a difference. The battery may be marginally better but not notably. The speed is pretty much the same and the range of brightness is exactly the same. The size is exactly the same. Touch id exactly the same. Where I was really disappointed is they now charge me for incoming calls and they did not before. I guess they used the change in phones as an excuse to up the ante. Combine this with the two days spent with unintelligible techies in trying to get the new phone activated and ... MoreI dropped my iphone 6s and cracked the screen and was having touch issues.

There’s Good but more Bad

The phone came on time and packaged in a box that well protected the phone. The phone came with a charger; cord and “block”. The phone also came with a free SIM card for Ting Mobile. The phone has very minimal damage as far as scratches or other defects. There’s a couple scratches, minor, on the screen, but other than that, the phone itself is in great shape. There is NO SIM push pin to use to put a SIM card into the phone. I had one so I was ok with this issue. The charger that was sent, kept flipping a breaker in my electrical box, and now (day 1) the charger does not work any longer. The battery life of the phone is “significantly degraded and in need of repair or replacement”. The battery maximum charging strength is only 78%. I have had to charge the phone 4 ... MoreThe phone came on time and packaged in a box that well protected the phone. The phone came with a charger; cord and “block”.

I have had to charge the phone 4 times on this 1st day of having the phone, and will have to keep battery power save mode on just to make it several hours. I’m going to have to have the battery replaced by a local repair store or an Apple Store or return the phone. Would I buy a refurbished phone again? I will be very hesitant.

This is a STEAL! Highly recommend!

Looks and acts like a brand new phone! I am VERY impressed! No scratches, dents etc. Cleaned up good as new. I can tell the screen has been replaced, but no big deal there. All functions work perfectly. This phone is a STEAL for the price!! iPhone 8 broke, so I replaced it with this. Put my SIM card into this new phone and added straight talk minutes on it, and it worked right away! Everything transferred perfectly and no issues with straight talk on switching! I couldn’t be happier! I highly recommend this phone in general. It has the brains of a newer iPhone version, but the looks of the 6/7/8s for those of us who still enjoy having the home button and a smaller sized phone. I bought mine in 2020 brand new and just bought this one for my daughter; you can’t tell ... MoreLooks and acts like a brand new phone! I am VERY impressed!

a sleek red iPhone SE

only cons is about 4 hairline cracks on the screen. The longest is about an inch from the very top middle down to about 1/5 of the screen. This is the only noticeable crack when I start to use the phone. But you get what you paid for.Shipping thru Fedex so I received in 3 days. It come with a smartphone box that looks cheap but the phone is pretty new. The back is spotless, tiny dins at top right side. Software 15.6.1 seems the latest. I compared it with my old iPhone 6. Size exactly the same but this SE is heavier. Back Camera 12 MP is pretty clear. The one review that says the Home button didn't work probably expect it like the iPhone 6. But it's different. The Home button can't be press down. You'll hear the click when you touch on it. I haven't tried my SIM ... Moreonly cons is about 4 hairline cracks on the screen.

The connection lines are not Apple's but look in good condition. My friend bought the brand new one from Apple and it's about $500. For less than half the price, I'm pretty pleased with this purchase.

solid phone

solid phone. This is my 3rd. I ran the first one through the sanitizing cycle (long wash 140 degree water plus steam) in my LG front loader by mistake. When it came out it didn't work well even though I could still call the digitizer was a bit flakey. So I bought another I have been using that one for a year now. The old one was placed in a vacuum saver bag with a couple silica packs from some shoes I bought, then vacuum packed and set aside for 7 days. It was removed just after I set up the new phone and it worked. So I gave it to my granddaughter who has used it continuously for about a year. Absolutely no problems with either SE2022.

Now my daughter just ran over her Iphone 6s with a forklift so this one is the replacement. Now we have three of these in the family. It is a perfect phone for us. My granddaughter plays games and has good eyes so screen size is not an issue. There are no delays stops or grunts etc. It plays as good as anything I have seen even in ads. The camera is good for snaps. We use real cameras with real big lenses for real pictures. But this one is very good too. It just can't compare with a real camera. The camera software and multiple lenses are spectacular on some high priced phones but you still don't have the 35 or 70 mm photo chip. We like real and not manufactured photos. so.... The screen is easy to read, and there seems to be a lot of low signal reception so calls are not dropped that often. All in all at $250, it is hard tto go wrong given our experience with the washed unit, it does take a forklift to destroy it. I am still amazed the original works. I mean hot hot water, double wash, high speed spin and it still worked. Amazing..
