Just read that the SE only has 1GB of RAM

Recycling parts FTW.
Having used a 1GB 5s and a 2GB Air 2 extensively, I'm not sure there's much benefit to 2GB of RAM on that small a device.
If you want the night shift thing for your PC.

Apple have copied some of it already except adjusting throughout the day which Flux does.

Anandtech says 2gb.

I wonder of the new iPad Pro 9" with a keyboard would be a good replacement for my '07 MacBook?
Honestly one of my best purchases is that computer. I back it up constantly because I figure it can't possibly last much longer but it just keeps chugging along!

This is definitely one to wait on reviews for. Gonna need to see benchmarks - don't want to be getting a glorified 5C II.

Maybe not right now, but if I spend this much on a phone, I'll want it to last at least 3 years. 2GB will keep it going a lot longer.

Hoping it's 2, I guess we're waiting for confirmation

Really tempted to sell off my Air 2 and Smart Cover on Swappa to upgrade to the 9.7" Pro. Honestly think I could get away with the 32 gb so it would only be like a $200 upgrade, but if I decided to go 128 gb it would still only be like a $350 upgrade.
iPhone SE looks like a winner for all of us who wants a smaller phone. Great hardware and an affordable price. I never understood why we don't have a similar android device. They are all 5"+ or underpowered. I hate when they make smaller phones worse than the bigger ones. I'm looking at you samsung!
only way to know for sure is a teardown and benchmarks but if it's using the same chip (A9) as the iphone 6S then it should be 6GB Ram unless they're making 2 chip versions just to lower the Ram which makes no sense. Same size.. same price for Apple.
I used to be a Tock guy too but skipped the 6 and went to the 6S. To me a physical redesign is less important than internal changes. Then again, if the rumors of the camera system is true that might tempt me enough.

You should change to yearly like the cool kids
Same exact phone path as you and I am definitely waiting for 7s.
I don't like using Apple products, but I'm thrilled that they've announced a smaller phone. I love having a compact device. Right now I use both a Lumia 950 and a Moto X Pure 2015, and they're both just a hair too big (i.e., sometimes I use two hands for them).
Hope that in turn inspires some other companies to make smaller flagships, or at least smaller phones with a good amount of horsepower behind them.

$399 for 4 inch iPhone will be HUGE in Chinese markets. I kind of want it myself. I paid $899 for my iPhone 6s.

I meant getting an SE, the Tock after the Tick that was the 6, now in a superior smaller size.

Think I am definitely going to get the iPhone SE but I will hold off until reviewers get their hands on it because the 2GB of RAM will make or break it for me. I know it sounds dumb, but the RAM upgrade is probably the biggest "future-proof" feature about the iPhone 6S and I would rather spend more for an iPhone 6S/iPhone 7 if the SE doesn't have it.

Should be in the Phone settings
Checked there and the settings are all the same as before. Is it not available for the 5S maybe?

If anybody is thinking about getting an iPhone SE it is worth noting that the phone is exactly the same size as the iPhone 5/5S and so you could possibly find some cheaper cases to use with it. I know Target has clearance'ed the official Apple cases in the past and Best Buy has the Black/Red/Brown leather case for $27 on clearance.

Thanks. I was just going to ask the same question.

I really like the Black Milanese strap, but not for $149. Pricing on straps should be more realistic.

'Tock' is where it's at. Antenna-gate. Bend-gate. There weren't 'tock' issues.
Is there a way to set up Nght Shift bases on sunset and sunrise times like f.lux?
Oh, nevermind, I found it.
Thanks, I found it like a second after I posted lol
Weird that they wouldn't set it up that way be default.

Settings > Display & Brightness > Night Shift > Scheduled
You can set the From/To to literally be "Sunset/Sunrise" or set custom times.
Daaaamn, didn't know it was an exclusive feature. Thanks though! I wanted to upgrade to the SE anyway, so this just gives me another reason to

Tempted to sell my Surface Pro 3 for a iPad Pro 10" and a laptop. Surface seemed like a great idea but it sucks as a tablet. And being able to take notes on something as thin as an iPad would be great.

I think Apple is going to be legitimately shocked at how many SEs they sell
oof the killing blow. I can't downgrade from the 6S Touch ID.

6/6S design are terrible.
Superior 5/5S design makes SE the best iPhone ever created.
what kind of laptop would you get though? Surface pro (and my wife's Zenbook UX306) kind of spoiled me for laptops, I think I'd want an ultrabook style just for the portability. And those aren't cheap - might be just as simple to keep the surface pro but use it just as a laptop.
I find it fine for tablet use - browsing on chrome now has smooth scrolling, and snap works well for two apps side by side. As long as you don't have to type anything - windows 10 has an appalling touch keyboard.
Nothing. Not a sniff.
