Features
The iPhone SE is based on the design of the small iPhone 5 S, but with newer components, such as the Apple A9 processor and a 12MP camera, which also functions as a 4K video camera. It initially shipped with iOS 9 pre-installed. The LTE and Wi-Fi are much faster than previous models while also being less expensive. It also features Retina Flash. The available colors were gold, silver, rose gold, and space gray.

History
After the first iPhone SE was discontinued in 2018, rumors arose of a new replacement model, especially after specifications were leaked from developer builds of iOS 14. In April 2020, Apple released the 2nd generation iPhone SE, based on the design of the iPhone 8. The device was targeted at consumers who liked the small iPhones such as the iPhone 4s but also needed a up-to-date version of software and hardware.
