iPhone SE. Lots to love. Less to spend.
iPhone SE packs the most powerful chip into the most popular size iPhone at the most
affordable price.
It’s just what you’ve been waiting for.
Design. Altogether beautiful.
Brilliant 4.7” Retina HD display. Speed and security of Touch ID. Water resistant to 1 metre for 30 minutes.1 All in a slim, light design.
Performance. iPhone 11 Pro called. It wants its chip back.
A13 Bionic is the fastest ever chip in a smartphone. Launch apps, play games and more — all with incredible speed.
Camera. Smile, you’re in Portrait mode.
The advanced camera system with A13 Bionic enables Portrait mode, artfully placing the focus on your subject — even for selfies.
Video. High, high, high, high definition.
4K video means four times the detail of full HD. And QuickTake allows you to start recording video in photo mode by just holding the shutter.
Battery. Binge-worthy battery life.
The show must go on. So iPhone SE lets you watch up to 13 hours of video on a single charge.2
Privacy. Privacy is built in.
Apple products are designed to protect your privacy and give you control over your information. It’s not always easy. But that’s the kind of innovation Apple believes in.
Even more great stuff.

- iPhone SE (2nd generation) is splash, water and dust resistant and was tested under controlled laboratory conditions with a rating of IP67 under IEC standard 60529 (maximum depth of 1 metre up to 30 minutes). Splash, water and dust resistance are not permanent conditions and resistance might decrease as a result of normal wear. Do not attempt to charge a wet iPhone; refer to the user guide for cleaning and drying instructions. Liquid damage not covered under warranty.
- All battery claims depend on network configuration and many other factors; actual results will vary. Battery has limited recharge cycles and may eventually need to be replaced by an Apple service provider. Battery life and charge cycles vary by use and settings. See apple.com/uk/batteries and apple.com/uk/iphone/battery.html for more information.
