Should you actually get the Apple iPhone SE on Straight Talk?

The editor weighs in — flanked by the optimist on her shoulder and the cynic on the other.

Our takeEditorial
The first-generation Apple iPhone SE occupies a fascinating niche: a genuinely capable iPhone at a price and size that larger flagships simply cannot match. The A9 processor, 12MP camera, Touch ID, Apple Pay, and Wi-Fi ac make it a legitimately functional device rather than a compromise. The 4-inch form factor is its defining feature — love it or hate it, there is nothing else like it on the market.

The limitations are real: no water resistance rating, aging software support, a weak front camera, and 32GB of non-expandable storage will frustrate modern users. But as a secondary device, travel phone, or entry point into iOS for budget-conscious buyers, the iPhone SE at $59.99 outright represents outstanding value. Just go in with eyes open about its age.

The Optimist
“OH. MY. GOODNESS. The Apple iPhone SE is PERFECTION in a pocket-sized package! Finally, a phone that doesn't require two hands and a prayer just to reach the notification bar! This glorious little gem packs the SAME camera as the iPhone 6s — yes, the FLAGSHIP camera! — into a chassis so compact it practically disappears. And Apple Pay! NFC! On a phone that costs less than dinner for two! The A9 chip blazes through apps like a cheetah on espresso. If you have ever DREAMED of holding a real iPhone in one hand while doing literally anything else with the other hand, the SE is your soulmate. Compact, capable, and criminally underrated. Four inches of pure, unadulterated iPhone magic. We don't deserve it!”

The Cynic
“Ah yes, the iPhone SE — Apple's masterclass in selling a 2013 design philosophy to people who somehow missed the memo that phones evolved. A 4-inch screen in 2016? My business card is bigger. The front camera produces selfies that look like they were taken through a screen door during a fog advisory. And 32GB with NO expandable storage? Bold strategy from a company that charges you a dollar a month for iCloud. The battery doesn't support fast charging because apparently Apple wanted you to savor the experience of waiting. No IP rating means this precious little snowflake requires a case, a prayer, and an umbrella. It's basically a very expensive iPod Touch with phone privileges. Adorable. Absolutely adorable.”
