Specifications

Camera

The Apple iPhone SE 2022 comes with a single 12MP rear camera. This is a wide lens with a f/1.8 aperture that features optical image stabilisation (OIS) and phase detection auto focus (PDAF) to control stability and focus. On the front of the phone there is a 7MP camera for selfies.

Video recording on the Apple iPhone SE 2022 is available in 4K in 24/30/60 fps and 1080p in 30/60/120/240 fps.

The inclusion of the A15 Bionic processor allows for improved behind the scenes functionality including Photographic Styles for enhanced creative control over photography. However, the iPhone SE 3 lacks the extra lens offered by the flagship iPhone ranges.

Display

With a screen size of 4.7-inches, the Apple iPhone SE 2022 is the one of the smallest iPhones on the market. It has an LCD panel display that just comes in below full HD at 1344 x 750 pixels.

True Tone is included on the Apple iPhone SE 2022 screen to improve the colour temperature of the display, although the difference between this LCD panel and the OLED displays of flagship models is clear when they are side by side.

Storage

The entry-level storage option for the Apple iPhone SE 2022 is 64GB, with customers able to choose 128GB or 256GB options if they prefer. This doesn't not reach the heights of the 1TB offered by some flagship devices, however, and there is no expandable storage on the iPhone.

Users are able to offload apps from the Apple iPhone SE 2022 into the cloud to save space on their device, so a high storage capacity may not be essential.

Design

The Apple iPhone SE 2022 is housed in the same shell as the iPhone 8 which was released in 2017 and is a throwback in terms of design.

It features bezels all around the screen and a traditional Home button offering Touch ID at the bottom of the display. The device is compact and uses lightweight materials to weigh in at 144g.
