The Apple A15 Bionic is among the most powerful chips in the world and it feels wasteful to pair it to such a small, low-res screen that can't exceed 60Hz. It's like putting a Ferrari engine into a VW Polo. But we guess Apple needed to refresh the SE with 5G connectivity and it was just easiest to use the chip it already manufactures in the largest quantities.

Still, we would have preferred a larger OLED screen, even if 60Hz. And MagSafe should have been present, too, in fact we were surprised not to see it on this new SE.

The Apple iPhone SE (2022) has the same box as the flagship iPhones - meaning it's thin, small and lightweight and it contains the iPhone and a USB-C-to-Lightning cable.
