Yesterday we received some important news, after years of rumors, Apple finally decided to officially launch the new iPhone SE (2020), which looks very similar to the iPhone 8. For this reason, and as an Actualidad iPhone we always want to make it easy for you, We'll tell you what all the differences are, down to the smallest detail, between the iPhone SE (2020) and the iPhone 8 so you can choose between one device and another. So, stay with us and discover everything that the iPhone 8 and iPhone SE have in common, and also what makes the most, which is not a few things.
Design and Display: Divided by Birth
Yes, the iPhone SE (2020) and iPhone 8 are exactly the same on the outside, we can only say that they are the same if it weren't for the fact that we are obviously able to include very little information. Both the machine they have a dimensions of 138.4 x 67.3 x 7.3 mm and a total weight of 148 grams. Both the camera and the keypad are in the same location, however, The Apple logo focuses heavily on the iPhone SE case and, all frames are blackened in three versions (white, black and red).
As for a very similar screen, the Retina screen with a resolution of 1334 × 750 (slightly higher than the HD) offers 326 pixels per inch, True Tone power and 625 brightness. However, The iPhone 8 had the necessary hardware for 3D Touch functions, while the iPhone SE had Haptic Touch, performs the same functions even though they are fully software-enabled. Apparently, they both have a touch ID sensor down, they are of the same generation so we didn't get any improvement in terms of safety or speed. Finally, they both resist dust and water (30 minutes) IP67.
Hardware: What's new inside
But the processor, The iPhone SE has the latest generation A13 Bionic (similar to the iPhone 11 Pro), and the iPhone 8 has the lowest total processor, the A11 Bionic. For its part, the iPhone 8 has 2GB of RAM, of course iPhone SE with 3GB of RAM to do less tasks. In connection with the maintenance of The iPhone 8 has 32/64 / 128GB versions while the iPhone SE starts from 64GB and has 64/28/256GB versions.
While the two share stereo audio, Bluetooth 5 and NFC, andn the iPhone SE case we have the latest generation Wi-Fi 6, not so with the iPhone 8 that had the Wi-Fi 5, and in this case the difference in speed and signal quality is very noticeable. For their part, both are compatible with fast charging up to 18W and they have a very similar battery, slightly lower than 1,800 mAh.
As for the hardware we get a clear winner, And that this iPhone SE looks like a real wolf in sheep's clothing that needs nothing.
One camera, many variations
When we focus on the front camera we have almost the same characteristics, a 12MP sensor with good image stabilization and body f / 1.8 aperture. This sensor offers more than five digital zooms. And even though they share all the details, we find that the iPhone SE camera is very similar to the iPhone XRs. We have the first Smart HDR technology of the generation, something that isn't on the iPhone 8 (iPhone 11 has the second-generation Smart HDR).
The main difference is that Apple is not included in night mode on iPhone SE camera software, something that has already happened with the iPhone X to give an example. While, IPhone SE will record 4K resolution at 30 FPS. For its part, the front sensor is the same, 7 MP with 1080p FHD recording in both cases and maintaining image mode. So, we can only say that the iPhone SE camera is the same as the iPhone XR, although we think Apple will be putting its software engineers in the process of developing it as much as possible.
The price is a big difference
IPhone SE is presented in the following price range:
- IPhone SE (2020)
- 64GB: € 489
- 128GB: € 539
- 256GB: € 659
This quickly means an increase in price and a reduction in price compared to the iPhone 8 of € 50. However, we should point out that the iPhone 8 is no longer available in the Curertino company catalog, so we have to go to outside retailers to access their purchases as our regular electronic stores. With this in mind, we can find great deals on the iPhone 8.
For its part, this is the price list stored by the iPhone 8 until it is released in Apple's catalog:
- IPhone 8
- 32GB: € 539
- 64: GB € 589
- 128GB: € 659
In short, the iPhone SE has led to a price reduction About the cheapest model Apple had sold so far. It makes sense considering that there is only one before and the previous model's design is fully utilized, the savings are directly reflected in the final item of the buyer, and that too is something to consider.
Should I buy an iPhone SE or iPhone 8?
It will depend a lot on how much you can reach per unit, but if we look at the same prices (let's not forget that until two days ago the iPhone 8 was quite expensive), we should consider the iPhone SE as a wise choice if we are looking for the right price. The iPhone SE is fully working on better sales for the Carlertino company by the year 2020 and sales figures are likely to eventually prove ready even after the launch of the iPhone 12, Are we facing the best iPhone in the money we've seen? Doubtless to me yes.
