iPhone 5S is 2.5 years old already and it is still performing lightning fast. Apple A9 in the iPhone SE is definitely an upgrade over the A7 chip in the 5S, but in terms of real world usage, you will not notice much difference as both phones run super smoothly with the SE having lesser or no lags.
As for the camera department, a bump to 12MP is definitely welcomed. However, picture quality on the 5S is still very good and unless you're a super camera-eccentric person, you'll probably be happy with the 5S camera too. It takes excellent day to day photos and is still faster than most android flagships.
So is worth the upgrade from 5S to SE? I wouldn't say so.
The 5S still performs superbly for a phone released long ago. If apple implemented the 3D touch display in the iPhone SE, it will be a different story.
2.5 years and Apple could have done so much more to improve on a 4 inch iPhone. Not saying that the iPhone SE is bad in any sense, just that it is not worth the upgrade. If you're coming from Android, this will be a superb phone for you to try out.
However, if you're coming from the iPhone 5 or earlier models, I definitely would recommend you to upgrade to the iPhone SE or the iPhone 6S/6S plus. You'll notice the difference then.
***** Do get the 64GB model if you to take photos and download applications. The 16GB model has around 11GB usable space which is not up to today's standard anymore. 4K video wwould take up a lot of space and the 16GB option just do the job*****
just got the iphone 7 aint no body got time for the SE
Have ordered one today, love my iphone 5 absolutely hated the iphone 6 and on with ther screen breaking all the time and high cost to fix, also the phone was to big. About time Apple went back to a 4" phone. I was going to change to the Samsung until I heard about the SE.

AnonD-522443, 04 Apr 2016So basically iphone launches a phone 2× faster than the iphone 5s( a 2 year old phone) a... moreYou embarrassed yourself there, A Samsung s7 is just old Samsung s6 with new parts in it. What is difference?
AnonD-522443, 04 Apr 2016So basically iphone launches a phone 2× faster than the iphone 5s( a 2 year old phone) a... moreVery true, what u said. Apple will increase the screen size by 0.5 inch and name it new model. Will change from 720p to 1080p and name it different. Samsung is very very innovative. One model to another model, so much change, so much technological advance
they just add a color "Pink" and they called it innovation?
