Honestly this article is probably right about the phone, the only thing they missed is that nearly all of the phones at this pricepoint come with a headphone jack and expandable storage which isnt unexpected, just will turn users off.

S11's camera module is larger then 8's and the place for the lense is near the corner of the case. It would have been impossible to stuck a larger unit to that spot without changing the placing of the lense. And then 7/8 cases wouldn't fit.

          I haven't had the chance to get my hands on one yet, so I'm just curious, is he home button an actual button like on older iPhones, or the fake crappy taptic one?

          Also, the lack of the audio jack is just disappointing but sadly not surprising.

            A low res LCD display for 500-550 euro (that's the actual price in Europe) is pathetic in 2020. I wouldn't call this "dirt cheap" or a good deal.

                This phone will be bought because
                - apple name
                - 4 -5 years software updates
                - small size
                - great value on second hand market
                Yes s10e is better but has problems
                - no more maximum 2 years updates
                - the glass that covers the cameras is very soft and can brake easily
                - s10 not e on second hand market now is 250 €
                Most of my friends and family will buy the iPhone se 2 .

                    They should use the sensor used by iphone 11, but they are using older used by iphone 8.

                      I can see Apple fans getting interested in the device but I doubt Android users will find it appealing. Even at $400 price point, you can find some excellent phones.

                        But clearly the price wouldnÂ’t be same because they would have to design it and change all kind of parts. The point why this iPhone is so cheap is because itÂ’s so easy to build and donÂ’t need any extra to build, just use parts you have already designed and manufactured many years ago.

                        Also Apple clearly don’t want to make this phone too good so it won’t steal too much of those expensive model sales.
