Fast runs in the family.
At the heart of iPhone SE you’ll find the same superpowerful A15 Bionic chip that’s in iPhone 13. A15 Bionic enhances nearly everything you do. Apps load in a flash and feel so fluid. You get incredibly smooth graphics performance for gaming.

Up to 1.2x faster graphics performance vs. iPhone SE (2nd gen)
A15 Bionic even powers advanced photography features that make each part of your photo — faces, places, everything — look fabulous.

Big-time battery life.
A highly efficient chip, an enhanced battery, and iOS 15 work together to boost battery life. When you do need to charge, just place iPhone SE on a wireless charger. Or connect a 20W or higher adapter to fast charge from zero to up to 50 percent charge in 30 minutes flat.

5G now on SE.

• Faster downloads.
• Faster streaming.
• Faster gaming.
• Less lag.
• More fun.

From livestreaming to multiplayer gaming to video sharing, 5G really speeds things up. It even makes FaceTime in high definition and SharePlay feel smooth and seamless when you’re on the go. When you don’t need all that speed, iPhone SE shifts into Smart Data mode to preserve battery life.4

• With the power of A15 Bionic and a fast 5G connection, you’re set up for years to come.

Cool with stumbles and cool with spills. 
Thanks to incredible water resistance, iPhone SE shrugs off spills from common liquids such as water, soda, coffee, tea, and juice. And it’s certainly not bothered by a little dust, either.

A camera you’ll instantly click with.
The A15 Bionic chip does all kinds of computations behind the scenes to make your photos look great. For example, Smart HDR 4 automatically refines the contrast, lighting, and skin tones for up to four people — so everyone looks their best. And in mid to low light, Deep Fusion studies multiple exposures pixel by pixel to capture the subtlest details, textures, and patterns in your final shot.

Set your look once. Get it every time.
Give your camera direction with Photographic Styles. Choose a look — such as Warm or Cool — and iPhone SE selectively applies the adjustments, keeping skies and skin tones natural. So your photos will automatically have the look you love.
Portrait mode draws attention to your subject by artfully blurring the background. Portrait Lighting lets you choose from six creative effects, like Stage Light or High-Key Light Mono, before or after you shoot.

Low-light scenes. Just-right videos.
Go ahead, keep the camera rolling. The enhanced video on iPhone SE picks up an incredible amount of detail — including contours, shadows, and highlights — even when the sun goes down.

Sharp, bright, and bursting with color, the Retina HD display makes everything look incredible.

The Home button you know and love.
Touch ID is a fast, simple, and secure way to unlock your phone and sign in to apps. You can even use it with Apple Pay to do things like shop online or grab groceries at the store — all without reaching for your card.

Privacy is built in.
iPhone helps put you in control of your personal information. For example, when you’re browsing, Safari intelligently helps block trackers from profiling you and shows you which ones have been blocked in your Privacy Report. And the list goes on.

iOS 15. Powerful features for you and future you.
Share movies, music, or whatever’s on your screen right in FaceTime. Tap text in an image to quickly send email, make calls, or get directions. And with ongoing feature and security updates, iPhone keeps getting even better — so it feels new again and again.
