Where Can I Buy an iPhone SE 2022?

There are plenty of options for buying new smartphones in Australia. Each has its own advantages and perks. For example, some retailers offer the new iPhone for free for a certain period and after that, you have to start making payments on the device. Also, most retailers offer free delivery, which may be helpful if you are currently at home and are unable to leave due to the COVID-19 restrictions.

You can find many iPhone SE 2020 hot deals in Australia or if you're on a really tight budget, you can buy it during sales like Black Friday.

One of the most popular and budget-friendly ways to purchase a new smartphone is to get it on a plan. You can then make frequent, small payments on the phone until you fully own it. You might even be able to get the first few months of the mobile plan for free. Big brand Australian retailers often offer such deals, and this is one of the best ways to get a new phone on a budget. The only downside is that you may need to pay for the device for an extended period of time and it may take a few years before you own it.

However, you can also buy the iPhone SE2 (2nd generation) outright. It's available with a range of retailers like Officeworks, JB HiFi, Kogan, Phonebot and Apple Store. Buying a smartphone from a retailer usually means that you need to pay full price upfront, but less headache, in the long run, paying month to month. This is a great way to find out if the phone you’re getting is going to suit your preferences, as well as get some free advice. If you don't like it, you can simply sell it on Gumtree or eBay or even return it within the change of mind period.

If you can't afford to pay full price for it, you can score a second-hand, used or refurbished iPhone and save yourself a few hundred dollars. It's important to note that Apple is unlikely to provide any warranty or free repair services for a preowned device. Apple has a range of free support services available to users, and these are really helpful if you have any issues with your Apple device only if it's under warranty. If you decide to purchase a used device then make sure to check its warranty status on Apple's service coverage URL.

What's inside the iPhone SE 2?

It is actually not a brand-new design or model. Apple initially launched an older version of this smartphone in 2016, called the iPhone SE, but discontinued it in 2018. SE stands for 'Special Edition,' and the special ingredient in Apple's 2020 iteration is that it comes with a powerful A13 Bionic chip, the same chip inside the more expensive iPhone 11. The A13 Bionic processor performs like a true flagship processor and you can expect it to take care of anything you throw its way. The iPhone XR has an A12 Bionic chip so, you can expect the iPhone SE 2020 to perform better than it. The tech and gaming performance of the A13 Bionic chip is also great. The battery life of the device is also good unlike most budget phones and can last you a day if you're careful with it.

Apple users are so loyal to the tech giant because of the way they combine convenience and accessibility with high performance. With a 4.7-inch Retina IPS LCD display screen, the display has Ion-strengthened glass and an Oleophobic coating at the front.

It also has a True Tone and a wide colour gamut. You can use the iPhone SE 2020 to check your email, record a video, check your social media, and more. This screen size is perfect even if you want to watch your favourite series. Like all of Apple's newer devices, this latest model comes with a Touch ID sensor built into the home button which makes unlocking effortless much like the previous generation iPhone 8. Other standard features include Apple Pay. The haptic touch of the device also feels premium and Apple has done a phenomenal job with the device.

The phone accessories inside the box are great. You’ll find a charging cable, as well as a set of earbuds. The phone also comes with a cleaning cloth, which can be used to keep the display clean, clear, and easy to see. You'll definitely need a case and a screen protector to protect your shiny new device and you'll be glad to know that all iphone 8 cases are cross-compatible with the iPhone SE 2.

Apple iPhone SE 2 Battery

The battery capacity of 1821mAH is adequate enough for its size, giving you up to 40 hours of battery life in audio and 13 hours in video playback. On top of that, you can access the internet at fast speeds with 4g LTE and has the same GSM and CDMA capabilities as previous Apple devices.

The iPhone SE 2020 has a 7 megapixel front facing camera and a 12 megapixel rear camera with optical image stabilization. Both the front camera and the rear camera performance is great even in low lighting conditions thanks to the night mode. The dynamic range is also great and you can expect the cameras to take great pictures and videos. The camera system of this iPhone model also supports 4k recording at up to 60fps (frames per second). The advanced camera setup of the iPhone SE 2020 ensures that you get the absolute best from the device.

It's easy to see and realize that this handset is intended to be a budget one, and therefore doesn't have all of the same features and accessories the more big-budget iPhones like the iPhone XR, iPhone XS/ XS Max, iPhone 11 Pro, Pro Max and iPhone 12 have.

However, if you're looking for a device Apple (iPhone SE second generation) that you can use to check your email, use social media and stay organised at a reasonable price, then this is probably the best option for you, at least among the devices Apple offers like the latest iPhone. The iPhone SE also has dedicated portrait modes and you can take great portraits and shots. It also comes in a variety of storage options so you can store hours of video, data and music.

Along with all that, it also has an IP67 rating, it is a water and dust resistance rating which means that your phone can withstand water and dusty conditions up to a certain limit. You can also enable the dark mode on the iPhone SE 2020 from the setting menu.
